They tend to be all over Charity screenings, and groups of rabid fan geeks (to the press, that is all we are, but it can be used to our advantage here) would be something they are likely to cover.

It would be a way to get coverage out there either by a short piece on tv or in the newspaper. Free publicity. . . and a way for Universal to take notice.

Also, a new national press release goes out tomorrow, advance copies of which have been sent to a number of the nationally-known critics who positively reviewed Serenity when it was in release.

Here in Portland, KBOO communtiy radio will have a story during their Wednesday evening news this week, and the other local weekly (The Portland Mercury) will have an item on it on June 22, the day before the screening here.

But we've still managed to sell more than 60% of our tickets, already. I think it's due to word of mouth in the Browncoat community, and maybe the fliers we've passed out EVERYWHERE (restaurants, book stores, comic shops, colleges, events, etc.).
