FFG,

There is no reason for you to feel anything but proud to be a browncoat. In all sincerity I feel that we are the best, most enthusiastic fan base out there. We have done what other people said couldn't be done, and I don't think any of us should let a few bad apples spoil it for us.

I have never really considered myself as part of a fanbase until Firefly. Sure, I liked some movies or TV shows, but never enough to dress up at a Con, participate on message boards, or to organize shindigs and charity events in the name of a fandom. Then I discovered Firefly. Something inside me clicked and I felt the overwhelming urge to part of it, if only as a fan. Nearly everyone here has helped to promote the show, fought for it, or got the word out to the uninitiated in one form or another. That is something to be proud of. No one can take that from us and we shouldn't let them.

Okay, so a few people didn't conduct themselves like adults. SHAME on them!!! If they visit here and read this, I hope they feel terrible for causing the theatres, the people that work there, Universal, and Joss aggrivation. They should feel terrible. After all Joss and Universal have done to get Serenity flying again, we should feel nothing but elation and gratitude.

I can understand being frustrated that they can't get tickets, and maybe we don't know the entire story, but we as browncoats should always conduct ourselves with integrity and honor. If we go out there and cause a bunch of grief it reflects badly on the fanbase, Joss, Universal, and the BDM. We have come too far and endured too much to allow hot tempers and bad manners to ruin it for all of us now!

Fellow Browncoats, I know that many of us are disappointed that we don't have the opportunity to see the screening in May, but we have to hold fast. We can ill afford to let our frustration to cause us to do or say something we might all regret.

Keep Flyin'!

Now this suggests that worringly JW is an Arsenal fan - I may have reconsider redirecting my fan-dollars if this is the case.

3) Say "please" and "thank you" when dealing with theater personnel.
4) Avoid the Special Hell by not talking (or molesting any children) during the movie.
5) Enjoy the heck out of said movie and applaud wildly at its conclusion.
6) Leave in an quick and orderly fashion 'cause it's way past my bedtime.

Hopefully, if enough of us behave in a similar fashion, it will help polish our tarnished reputation.

See (some of) you at the BDM!

I hope he isnt. That would sour how highly I regard the man. Everyone knows that Arsenal are a bunch of wanker and whiners.

Ah, it was all going so well until that last sentence!!

Now excuse me while I go watch my team trample Chelsea into the dirt this evening....What's that? Yes, of course they stand as much chance as Serenity out-grossing Episode III. Your point is?

And I'll just repeat my comment posted elsewhere that the aforementioned Unruly Browncoats should be made to wait until the DVD is released - and then be forced to watch some obscure foreign language version (not Chinese, obviously) with subtitles.

"Why would I want to leave Serenity?"
"Can't think of a reason."

Oh yea of little faith - not the most exciting match for a neutral, but I'm an ABC (Anyone But Chelsea - we've had to put up with it for far too many years so turnabout's fair play).

Besides, from an atmosphere, nothing beats the Liverpool (or Celtic for that matter) fans singing you'll never walk alone.

Now *this* I would totally get behind!

(I assume this is the same Shiny_ as on the OB?)
What time are you going to be getting to the SF theatre on Thursday? If you bring the greeting cards, I'll bring a giant bouquet of flowers for the theatre management. We can pass the cards around during the line party, and give the theatre managers their copy once the doors open.

I love the idea!
