Embers, I am considering trying to make it to San Fran tomorrow night. Any word on what the turn-out looks like?
It means a five hour drive, and I don't get off work until 6- wich leaves me half an hour to find the theater and find parking. EEEK!

The Sacramento one is at midnight, too, but that's basically the same distance.

Why oh why don't we have transporters? It would make my life so much easier!

The Bridge is at 3010 Geary Blvd,
and a block away, on Anza, there is supposed to be plenty of parking.

All the Browncoats are meeting up at the Pig & Whistle
at 2801 Geary (two blocks East of the theater)
around 8pm

then everyone will head over to the theater around 11pm.

Right now the 'Serenity' showing is only about 50% sold out - so there should be no problem with getting a ticket at the door

so I think it'll be worth the drive!
see you there

an older married couple behind us complained about the crack smoke but the whores smacked them around a bit and that was that. Overall a great showing; crowd not as friendly as it used to be, but thats ny for you

I went! I just got back from the Portland one at Cinema 21. Made me happy and, more importantly, giddy enough that I realized I really really wanted to get back into the internet community. So that's why I'm, um, here! Anyway, it was fantastic. I suspect most of the people are still out partying, but my ride had to leave. If anyone went, I was pretty obvious before hand, in the line, what with dancing and running around and being really tall.

Pasadena, CA sold out. I just got back.

As a recently recruited browncoat who missed seeing Serenity in theaters the first time (I knew about FF and didn't want to see the movie before the show) I would like to extend my sincerest thanks to all the SoCal Browncoats for making the screening happen.

It was truly a wonderful time!

I'm amazed that nobody's reported in from Boston yet. Well, here goes!

We had an absolutely swai event! Big kudos to the folks at New England Browncoats who organized it.

The Coolidge Corner theater sold out well ahead of showtime. I'm gonna estimate the crowd at about 500 Browncoats... well, somewhat less than that before the movie started, but all 500 were 'coats by the end!

My group of 'coats arrived an hour before showtime. Already by that time, there was a "Sold Out" sign up, and folks were being turned away -- thank Buddha we got our tix in advance! -- and a huge line of fans was standing in the "Serenity Ticket Holders" line. Outside. Down the block and around the corner. In the rain. And all were in great spirits! The line doubled in size before the doors opened. Someone passed a couple giant birthday cards down the line for the fans to sign for Joss. Sorry about the water drip spots, Master!

As the crowd filed in, we got a sneak peek at the upcoming "Done the Impossible" fan documentary. We also got to see a short feature in which Joss was presented an award from Equality Now. He gave an amazing and hi-larious acceptance speech.

NE Browncoats had arranged a bunch of door prizes, ranging from theater passes to actual props from the movie set. My good friend (who has posted here a few times as MakesUsMighty) won a framed piece of Alliance currency from the bank vault scene! 500 Credits. I'm not jealous at all! It's a beautiful thing. It's just amazing the attention to detail that went into our BDM. (IIRC there's a picture of this bill, or an identical one, in the Visual Companion.)

And then, of course, came the screening of some strange little movie called "Serenitance", or something like that. It was so fantastic to see it in a theater packed with 'coats! We laughed, we cried, we applauded... well, you know. The theater was great, with excellent sound and a big (though not gigantic) screen.

There was no announcement of the amount raised for EN, but based on my guess at the size of the crowd I'll estimate it at somewhere around $4000 on ticket sales alone. (Don't know whether the theater took a cut of that for the film rental.) Add to that some direct contributions and T-shirt sales and, well, let's just say I'm proud of my fellow NE 'coats -- I think we held up our end.

Hooray for Serenity Day! Yay Serenity Day!

Chicago rocked. I loved the theater. It was vast, with ornate cieling work. I was in awe. I noticed so many little things on the big screen I never saw before. People broke out in applause after Kaylee's "I'm gunna live"-line and also during River's bloody scimitar/reaver carnage - shot. It was so worth driving through chicago traffic. Joss should film in chicago.

I went last night! The Alexandria VA BDM was a sold out show. It was also held at the Arlington Drafthouse, so there was food and beer as well as the BDM! Thank the BDH's I ordered my tickets on-line the first day they were available!

The entire audience cheered, clapped, laughed, and sighed along with each other. There were several poeple in hand-knit "Jayne caps" and they looked very cunning. I had brought along about two dozen Fruity Oaty Bars and was giving them out with every $5 donation to EN, but they went in about 30 seconds (not an exageration!). People kept on donating anyway.

We were thinking about going out for a shindig after the show, but couldn't find anywhere that would allow "Browncoats - party of 250" after midnight.

Goramit, we had a great time!

I made it to the Philly one - stadium-style theater that was almost sold out!! Ran into some old friends and some new ones, met some fellow costumers; yes, once again I was in my very nearly complete Mal costume (or Reynolds Wrap as I like to call it ). In fact, pretty much the only crew members missing were River and Book! The guy cosplayed as Simon looked awesome - rosy glasses and all. I'll have to see if one of the pictures taken last night have been posted online anywhere.

And you have truly not seen the BDM until you have seen it on the big damn screen, my friends. Any of you still haven't? Well, Serenity Summer is far from over! Rustle up some 'Coats in your area and try to pull another one together. It'll be worth every coin and that's a fact. Plus, point of interest, it'll be a galaxy of fun, I'm here to tell you!

The dinner before the show was a wonderful way for me to meet the local Browncoats & everyone was so friendly.
Seeing the BDM was incredible.The crowd seemed really into the movie & the theatre was nice if not a little small.
I want to do this again next year.

The June 22nd screening in Austin was a sold out success. When I got there 45 minutes afore show time, folks were already inside (GAH!), so I had to hop to it to find 4 seats together for my pals. Lot's of people were dressed for the occasion, my favorite being a young gal totally decked out as Zoe. Necklace, vest, the whole kit. There were about 4 Jayne hats, which I thought particularly admirable, it being in the 90s and very very humid.

The print was perfect. It was a delight to see the subtle lighting that sometimes gets lost on DVD (you could actually see the Operative's expression in the last scene with Mal). So pretty. Such good cinematography. *sigh*

OK, we doing this again next summer? I'm all over it.

Yikes. The word I was going for was swai, though I suppose that may not be applicable to inanimate objects. But in any case, the evening was extremely handsome and not shitty at all.

In my defense, I can only plead that I wrote my post after a few hours' sleep following 24 hours awake.

Just got back from Pittsburgh this evening...we flew all the way there from Philly to see the BDM on the big screen!! (Yep - we bought our tickets before the Philly screening was announced.)

Pittsburgh is a GREAT city and the showing of the BDM in Oakmont was a wonderful success. About 100 Browncoats came out and clearly everyone enjoyed the evening. Fun raffle of Serenity/Firefly shirts, a Jayne Hat, posters and key chains. Lots of clapping and cheering and general Firefly enthusiasm.

The two young ladies who organized the event did a wonderful job...THANKS SO MUCH!!

We had the melbourne screening friday night. Only 5 people dresse dup out of 200, but a couple of them did a really good job - especially 'Kaylee', who won. There were quite a few prizes donated for a raffle - there is a convention here in october with the trio from buffy, and Amber Benson, so a few prizes were tickets to that, couple of signed pics etc.

Anyway, I had fun, it was a good night. Really weird though - 6 people got up and walked out at various times.... Not sure if they were first time viewers who got freaked out (the first people left after Mal made them put the bodies on the boat) and then some more left late after they viewed the recording on Miranda.... or maybe they had somewhere else to be and they just came to support the event...

Apparently raised aprox AU $1600 for Equality Now.....

Yay for dedication. Hope to keep in touch with eveyone I met yesterday! And I hope the dvd sales for Serenity keep going up. Does anyone know where Serenity is on the chart at the moment?
