Yes, this is good. This is probably the best "sci-fi" drop since Attack of the Clones in 2002, which fell 40%. It's a very, very rare thing when sci-fi pictures, especially those with a built-in audience, fall less than 50%.

I still think its better if one person converts 10 others as opposed to seeing it 10 times (and try not to be too much of a manic ;)

I agree on both counts, FlyingTams, which is what that "talk it up" part was about. To not come off as much of a maniac, I recommend ommitting the film's unusual history ("it's made from a cancelled TV show" tends to make people think it's crap) and also, perhaps, omit your own fannishness--otherwise people will think you're biased ("well, of course you love it"). Instead, emphasize its sheer quality as a picture: "I just saw this great movie, Serenity, you HAVE to go see it!"

But those are just suggestions. Keep spreading the word however you can, Browncoats (and if you can see it again yourself, that wouldn't hurt either ).
