I note that ezydvd in Australia have restocked their Serenity - Collector's Tin (2 disc) edition and that it's on sale for AU$25 which is approximately US$19.

Unfortunately you need to have a Region 2, Region 4 or multi-zone DVD player and it's in the PAL format. If you're interested check it out at www.ezydvd.com.au

It's really worth having for the additional extras especially the "Filmmaker's Journey" doco (a must have if you are a Joss, Summer or Nathan fan), and the Q&A session held in Sydney.

I'm buying the HD-DVD version tomorrow, even though I don't intend to jump into the HD-DVD fray yet. I'll probably get the Xbox360 HD-DVD add-on drive when it comes out.

I recently loaned my copy out to a friend, so I'm just going to replace mine and let him keep it. Sharin the wealth.

I'm buying the BDM for my friend that I totally hooked on the show.

It's her b-day next week and I already bought her the BDS a few months back. Now, she'll have both!

Ooh, I hope she's not reading this...

Everything's shiny, Cap'n. Not to fret.

yup - same thing - loaned mine out and, as I never got it back, I thought it'd be a good excuse to invest in HD-DVD.

Then, I'm giving a box set & a normal BDM to my brother & his luverly new bride on the occasion of their wedding. I figure that they already have enough boring dishes & toaster-ovens. They know nothing about The 'Verse & "Serenity Day" is as good an occasion as any to spread the wealth.

I plan to buy a extra copy of the BDM and give it to a friend who is borrowing my box set so he can watch them. I would get him the firefly set to but not enough cash.....

Just bought me a copy of the HD version for the day when I have an HD TV. Currently have two copies of the movie. The unopened one will be a gift for someone. I'm always forgetting birthday's so it helps to have gifts readily available.

Ordered my 3rd set (Firefly eps and Serenity) first thing this morning. One set I loan out, one set I for my brother as a gift, and today's set because the set I loan out takes so long to come back...and I want to help spike sales so that someone that is burdened with an over abundance of schoolin' will see the sales figures and finally realize that it's time to bring back Firefly to television.

It has a name, I call it Vera.

I tried to buy it, but it would only let me buy five. I did buy a loaner copy of Firefly. I'll make another attempt to buy Serenity later.

Just picked up another copy. Planning on giving it to my brother or sister, whoever needs it most. I'm so glad to be doing good works.

Today is the 23rd, so I just bought 2 copies of the BDS and 3 copies of the BDM through the link to Amazon on the homepage here. The prices on both are great today, so I wonder if someone in the Powers-That-Be office is a Browncoat! I already own both and have already given a couple of copies of the BDS away (what better Mothers' Day present could there be?) so 2 copies of the movie will go to people who have already gotten the series from me, one copy of the series will stay here as a second lending copy (I have 3 friends who have asked to borrow it and I'm missing disk 1 of my original set and may be for a while longer) and one copy of the series + movie will go to a friend who shall remain nameless who pirated at least part of the series and needs to become an honest citizen of the 'verse. Happy Birthday to Joss!

Zoe: Planet's coming up a might fast.
Wash: That's just 'cause I'm goin' down too quick. Likely crash and kill us all.
Mal: Well, if that happens, let me know.

Kinda disappointing.

After much non- cooperation from Amazon.. which finally got ironed out.. I bought...

3 copies of the BDM

2 will go to local libraries
1 copy mailed directly to Whedonverse.org.

Then
1 copy purchased from a local merchant.. hands on buying.. lol
1 copy purchased from Universal.. so they will see me buy it. Right now.

These I will loan or gift.

One copy of the BDSeries bought thru Amazon too, but it wouldn't let me buy more than 1 at a time, so I will order 2 more tomorrow.

Then I went and donated to Equality Now with the code for Kurya's screening in Montreal... cuz he's kept me in the loop for their screening and I appreciated it. And I was very proud of them.

I'll donate yet again tonight with FFF.net in the company slot.. nod to Agatsu for that shiny suggestion.

Then I donated to our shiny home here... thank you Haken!

That was my Serenity Day celebration.

Happy Birthday Joss!

Happy Serenity Day everyone.

Only wish I'd made a screening too... ohh, to see my Captain up on the big screen.. *sigh*

I hope we do the screenings every year!

We already have a copy, but we're buying an extra as a loner.

Everything I've bought today is getting sent to friends.
"What's firefly, I've never seen it!"
Don't worry. You WILL! (Bwahahahahaha!)

I'm also donating several copies to hospitals for their media centers in the name of a friend who passed away last year. Kind of a legacy for him.

I ordered 5 wide-screen versions of Serenity and had them sent to the Whedonesque Project who will distribute them to libraries and the such.
I also bought one Firefly box at a local store to give away and donated 50 bucks to Equality Now through www.cantstoptheserenity.com.
I wanted to do more, but some real life stuff got in the way. Ah well, I got lots of time to save some money for the 'Versary, where we're REALLY gonna kick ass.

BROWNCOATS UNITE!

First thing this morning I ordered the HD-DVD from Amazon and the Serenity EXCLUSIVE Collector's Tin 2 disc set from ezydvd.com.au. I don't care that the second isn't compatible with my player I just want it for the tin.
