Never in my life has a trailer elicited such a reaction from me. The hair on my neck stood on end, my heart raced, I couldn't stop giggling crazily, and by the end, my hands were shaking and I had tears in my eyes because I hadn't blinked once.

I openly admit I have a problem. A Terrible and Wonderful Addiction to Firefly. There is no cure except to watch the series over and over until the Big Damn Movie comes out, then I have to go to the theatre and see it again and again until it comes out on DVD, then I have to purchase multiple copes for every house I might be in (mine/grandma's/cousins) whenever I get a hankering for Firefly.

I'm still bouncing in my chair and I fear this silly grin may never leave my face.

I was actually there for this and don't remember anyone getting shot in the trailer. But it went by so fast and I was kinda in a daze. I'm downloading it right now to watch again. Hmmm I wonder if I can hear myself clapping. I guess it depends what screen it was filmed from. (2 screens in the room)

Just a quick question. How many people here knew Joss Whedon had a clear purple backpack? I found it strange, but hey he is strange.

After watching the video I realized 2 things. I'm pretty sure that was River goign down and the person filming the video was sittign right in front of me. :) Shiny

The server is busy as you can imagine. Within 2 hours of my posting the links the server was maxed out at it's 24 connection limit. It's been there ever since.

All I can tell you is to keep trying.

TIP: I know my web server doesn't like several of the download tools with resume like flashget and others I can't think of right now. Using your plain ol' browser to download the file(s) will yield the best results.

Oh and BTW, 8GB worth of downloads since I posted the link yesterday...

I can't see it!! I've downloaded the avi version from the torrent, but if I play in in Windows Media Player, I only get the sound. If I play it in Quicktime, I get the picture, but no sound.

It sadly won't work on the divx player either..I need an MJPG codec or something? I've done a search on google, and I haven't had much luck :(

HELP MEEEE!!

Try downloading the latest version of windows media player. I just reformatted an older computer and downloaded the latest WMP and it worked without adding any codecs. Also worked on the NERO player.

BTW the picture looks 5X brighter/better on a CRT than an LCD

For anyone wishing to run this on DIVX I did find a Codec that worked. go to

http://codecs.necromancers.ru/

and download the MJPEG codec. First you NEED to extract the file from the zipped folder then open up the mmx folder, then right-click on the file MCMJPEG
"setup information" (should be the one on the left) and click INSTALL.

Worked for me for DIVX version 5

Woo, finally got it from the site posted earlier, after loads and loads of timeouts (some at heartbreaking amounts of 90%+). I also spotted it (at least, I assume it was it) on Kazaa, but before I got much progress on it my other download finally completed.

The trailer itself... ehh, the poor quality kind of hurt my enjoyment (I could barely really see or hear what was going on most of the time), but I liked seeing the cheers and the mere fact that it _does_ exist.

ITS SO PRETTY!

Can't wait for the official teaser release. I'm going to take a safe bet and say we'll see it possibly proceeding big flicks this fall such as Meet the Fockers perhaps for older audiences and Friday Night Lights for the younger? Or do you think September is too soon for that to get cleaned up anymore?

I would guess they'd wait until the holiday movie season...but that's just me.

I think September might be too early seeing as they are wrapping the shoot late August. I am thinking early next year or even late this year. You never know though it just might be late September just to keep us Browncoats happy. They are already advertising shows for next Summer and such. We can hope. =-)

Hmm, I noticed something interesting...

At about the 42-44 second mark, where Serenity is being chased by another ship... and fired upon... by a shipboard laser? Not complaining, just thought it kinda kewl that we finally see what appears to be a ship-mounted laser in action.

Also, the movie quality VASTLY improves if you turn off all the lights, play it fullscreen, and crank the monitor brightness to about three-quarters/four-fifths of maximum.

Does Blue Sun sponser the Blue Man Group?

Just wanted to say a huge THANK YOU to those responsible for posting and propagating this. Being in the UK, I thought I had no chance of ever seeing the teaser, but I was wrong and it's been such a treat. Even though it's difficult to make out, the footage still gave me goosebumps. I felt like cheering when "Next Spring... They're Back" came up. Awesome!

Amusingly, my friend at work who is also a Browncoat (I converted him, as he sits next to me it was only a matter of time...) logged on to FFF.net over the weekend and saw the teaser was up before me, so I had to suffer him going on about having seen it all day in the knowledge that I wouldn't be able to download it myself until I got home! Torture, but at least it heightened the anticipation even more.

Thanks again,

Ade

Does anyone have a link that isn't torrent. I can't download torrent onto my grandmothers computer which is the only computer I can download on because she will string me up, hang me from my neck and leave me outside as a warning to others. I can download any other kind of file just not torrent files because of the whole system thing they use. Please someone let me know. my e-mail is rei_ayane@hotmail.com

I honestly do not think River is shot. To me its a mix of scenes. River falling isnt from a gunshot but from the overwhelming emotions coming from sensing REAVERS are onboard (before everyone else realizes).
If memory serves right someone that attended it told that Joss said the scenes are not necessarily given in order of how the movie will play out. So I think River is foreseeing the Reavers getting onboard Serenity and attacking Mal who shoots one.....

any ideas?
