But buying the DVDs would get more money to Universal which would help our cause even more. DVD sales are what will get us a sequel.

You're right. Buying the DVD sets puts money in Fox's pocket, but the DVD sales numbers did help convince Universal to make the BDM to begin with. Boosting those numbers will only help the cause.

I would use the $19.86 priced series sets at Amazon.com & at Wal Mart to hook people then convince them to go by the BDM on DVD to put money in Universal's pocket & push for a sequel.

Yea Chindi, and the intros by Mal and Book. I love those, especially Mal's.

It's sorta fun to watch it on tv the way it first came out. I like the DVD's better but tv is fun.

Buy Serenity with the new low priced ( on Amazon) DVD set of the show. Recruit with the movie and the series. Either way, Browncoats will be born.

Universal is who we are trying to interest the most tho. They can make a sequel if interested and they have a interest in SciFi where it's possible a mini series or tv movie could be made. Either way...they come first.

On the subject of gorilla marketing, I hope everyone's remembered to rearrange their local video stores. :) My fiancee and I have made it a habbit to at least go in once a week and make sure to move Serenity from where it's hidden in the back to a more prominant place among the "new arrivals". :) I've seen it stay there for days without store employees noticing, so hopefully it'll get a few more rentals every week.

I've got a lot of useless triva in my head, here's one of my favorites:

The first time the Mona Lisa was stolen no one noticed. The guards did not realize it was stolen in spite of the fact it was not there. The people looking at the artwork didn't realize it was stolen. The person who owned the place walked by and didn't notice it was stolen.

(Apparently) Everyone just assumed it had been taken down for a reason.

-

On a less historic note my sister put a piece of artwork the size of a doorframe in a college campus about a year ago and no one has moved it yet. It should have, in theory, been thrown out because it is technically litter. When I say no one has moved it that isn’t technically true, apparently someone moved it about a yard and a half, but that’s hardly a big deal and where it is now is arguably more prominent than where it had been before.

-

People have a habit of assuming things are where they should be, and most don't ask questions.

But commericals withstanding, now I have eight episodes of the 'verse to watch starting tomarrow at 10AM. Any word yet if it'll be aired in order this time? Sorry, I'm lazy and I didn't want to look at every single reply for an answer.

Makes me wish Firefly never left TV =/. Not only am I depressed about the well known previous events of Firefly's demise, but I'm also depressed because the last episode shown on SciFi was Out of Gas!!! :'(
