God, I hope this is somebody's misbegotten idea of humorous...


Respectfully,

Unlike Joss, I don't have to be grown up about this!

... So what happened? Well, nothing terribly original. April got crowded with a lot of titles aimed at a similar demographic...

AFTER the 22nd, though, you have the sequal to XXX and the next week you have Hitchhiker's. Those are the two that Universal is afraid of. Demographics overlap, and both can be seen as having more recognition than Firefly. So Universal is afraid that Serenity won't have the staying power at the box office past the first week.

As much as I HATE to wait that much longer, I'm inclined to agree with the decision. I think it really needs at least one extra weekend without competition to get its foot in the door with word of mouth.

the studio decided September was a clearer corridor for the film to make the kind of impact it should. This isn't about a lack of confidence in the film -- in fact, they told me this before they even saw it. And now they have seen it, and unless they're way better liars than I'm used to, they dug it. Actually, they dug it pretty large,

The release date is September 30th. Hopefully it won't change again.

On the one hand, it means that I see "Serenity" with the Indiana Browncoats instead of the Florida Browncoats, which is a disappointment.

I suppose that means the novelization will be pushed back too.

Another thought. Since the BDM is being pushed back to September, I suppose that means the novelization will be pushed back too.

yep.and probably the other book(on essays).....this is not good,well this thanksgiving i am NOT thankful for this.i hate this.im sorry im a big baby right now, i know.just a few days ago the first photo was leaked and it hit me that it was getting closer--and now(sigh) alright,so here is a MEMO TO UNIVERSAL- PROVE IT.BACK IT UP.MARKET THE SHIT OUT OF THIS FILM! As april was approaching i still hadn't heard of ANY merchandise other than cards and 2 books,so now you can work on the following "dream merchandise" a video game by next christmas,that rumored animated prequel,action figures dammit(paramount blew it with sky captain)t-shirts,and anything else. hell ill take serenity pop tarts if it'll help with marketing! and yes,to the other fellow browncoats have said that gives us more time to convert other folks to this universe.i called my best friend who i just converted a few months ago and told him the bad news and he said the same as above,so we've got a lot of work people I may be depressed now,but gorramit that's enough of that,'cause browncoats don't pout they fight on."you wanna see the real me now?" we have to support this film to the end(one question,will the overseas market get it first now?)so right now we have 2 films to destroy the sequel to zorro-im sorry is it 1999 already? little late dontcha think? curious george.....sorry this monkey has no curiousity in that one.BRING IT ON STUDIOS! KEEP FLYING--damn straight.
