Rob, believe it or not, I came back here to edit out that part of my post... I had second thoughts about mentioning it. Then you went and quoted me... you rascal!

I aim to be there. Lots of things I need to take care of ahead of time though. I want to bring a bunch of guerilla marketing posters to help promote Firefly/Serenity. This event is such a shiny way to get some serious heat going for the best gorram dvd/movie in the 'verse.

Well, I just got my tickets (thanks to a ton of unused frequent flyer miles) and I'll be arriving in SD at 8:16AM. Let me know if you need any help with, since I really have nothing in particular to do after I register until around noon or 1PM, and I can carry posters as well as the next guy. Juggling goslings? Not so much. But posters I can do. :)

I've read several other reports and none of them in my opinion accurately convey the energy and sheer "lovefest-y-ness" of the Serenity session. No rock-concert/sporting event/theater I've ever attended has come close! The 4000 plus seats were filled to overflowing and the volume level of the audience was several times that of any other session I attended, including StarWars and LOTR. As I looked around I actually saw tears, and I'm pretty sure I saw tears forming in several the cast members as well. But don't get me wrong, this was far from being a sad event. The entire cast and Joss (especially Nathan), had the audience and each other in stitches the entire time.

Trust me the MP3 audio files of the event, don't even come close to conveying the energy and excitement level. I read a report claiming this was less exciting than the LA Comic con... I totally disagree. The only things better about the LA Comic con was that the Q & A was longer and everybody got autographs.

Prior to this event, I wasn't all that convinced that Serenity would be a blockbuster movie, I knew it would be profitable for the studio, I knew the DVDs would do well, and I knew it would be well received, but I wasn't sure it would be a blockbuster, now I'm convinced it will be. I'm not saying it's going to break any opening weekend records. But based on the size and passion of it's response, I know it's going to do very well. (Perhaps breaking the record an April release).

As for the teaser they showed, I'm not even going to try to describe it in any detail, I'll just say that, as impossible as it sounds, I'm even MORE excited about the movie!

About my only personal disappointment was seeing the "DVD Production" team there. I had really hoped to be involved in the DVD. However, my company still wants revolutionize DVD-ROM and we want to use the Serenity DVD to do it... Universal, are you listening?
