Okay. . .

I have the phone number for the Universal rep who handles distribution for North Carolina and as of 15:38 EST, on Friday, July 30th, I left him a message.

Here's the plan.

We're requesting that one of the NC Venues be an AMBASSADOR ENTERTAINMENT Theatre. Out of the four theatres owned by Ambassador, our preferred choices are:

#1: The Rialto, for nostalgia's sake. . .the classic 'movie palace' venue with a big stage and such (and if'n we want to stay for the Rocky Horror Picture Show afters)

#2: Mission Valley, while it's not a 'movie palace' like the Rialto, this is good choice because parking is alot better than at the Rialto, they serve beer like the Rialto, and it's just as convenient to hotels and such. Mission Valley shows mainstream movies already, so it wouldn't be as big of a deal getting "Serenity" shown there.

#3: The Lumina. This theatre is in Chapel Hill, which is "up the road" from Raleigh, but still convenient to the airport (RDU) and the interstate. It's a more modern theatre that, like Mission Valley, already shows mainstream.

Now then. . .I'm not MARRIED to any of these choices. I would LOVE to see it at the Rialto, like I said, for pure sake of the 'classyness' that the ol' girl has to offer. I've recieved assurances that no matter the theatre, as long as it's owned by Ambassador, we will be allowed to make it an 'event'. We will, however, have a BIT more freedom at the Rialto for that, since "Serenity" would be the ONLY movie showing there.

Also. . .let me add, on a more personal note, just how very shiny it is to know that so many of you would travel to NC for this party. It's my sincere desire that there's a "mighty fine shindig" in each of the 50 states for this highly anticipated movie. I have a hard time believing there wouldn't be. I'd LOVE to get the media's attention for this. . .which is, of course, my NEXT project!

Keep Flyin!

I'm going to assume Static will keep updating those of us who ain't from NC (I went to college for a year at Elon College, now University, in 1992, and I do miss NC) as to what's happening from week to week.

It feels like April is so far away, but when you think about it, when it comes to getting plane tickets, renting a car, renting a hotel room...this movie had better be damn good, LOL!

May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.

I will be attired in an ensemble similar to Mal's formalwear. Frock coat, banded collar shirt, cravat and vest. Maybe the gun on the hip. . .mayhaps not.

Oh shiny. I think I'll dress like Kaylee... But not in formal wear. I love the girl to death but that dress was awful...

Cool... Cross dressing..

Sort of.

I have a pretty neat shirt I found at JC Penny's or something. Looks Firefly-ish to me so I might wear that. Or a velet blue Kaylee-ish shirt I found...

But that might be too hot for Apirl. I dunno...

Hi there! I'm from NC (currently living in the foothills but originally from Durham) and if I'm not in LA for opening night I'd sure love to be down there. I'm torn because while where I'd stay is probably closer to the Lumina, I'd much rather go to the Rialto - am I correct in thinking the Rialto's got a bigger screen? The Lumina screens seem so small to me.

Also it'd be good if possible if folks could pay for tickets w/a credit card, which I know is usually not an option @ the Lumina.

Hmmm...let me ponder a moment. Stay with me here:

I live in southern california. (2 hours from LA). I assume there will be a big premeare with lights and the actul stars of the movie. Ifn any saine person could get the tickets, this is the premere they would go to.

But I am not a sane person.

Insead, I'm digging up the money to fly to the other side of the country for the NC premere party. Not even tryin to get into the LA one.
