I rented Serenity a few weeks after it released on DVD and fell head over heels in love with the Characters and the 'verse.

I quickly bought the Firefly series and fell even more deeply in love. Since that time I am quickly converting most of my close friends and even people at work !!

I have been a lurker here for quite some time, but i have something worth posting here. I am a big HomeTheater geek and have been closely following HDDVD and Blu-ray development.

A man in the AVSForums posted a screenshot from his front projection system, that I simply had to come here and post ASAP!! This is a photo of his screen from the HDDVD of Serenity, with my favorite character. This is almost enough to me me rush out and buy HD-DVD!!

I apologize for the large size of the picture, but it loses effect when shruken down. Please let me know what you think of it.

Take care,

-- Cain

*DROOLS*

Hi Cain!
I'm a Home Theater Geek too!
Had to get a projector and a fairly big wallscreen to quench my thirst!
now that image...
Seems like I really have to buy that HD-DVD Player... I wasn't certainly planning to get one soon but... might want to dig up my reserves sooner than expected!

This whole Firefly/Serenity thing will make us all go bankrupt, sooner or later..
Well, we will be "just folks" then, and go pirating to make the day

Wow...
So, uh... How much would a set up like that cost?

Also... I can kill you with my brain.

I have a group of Firefly converts coming over Saturday to watch Serenity for their first time....

Yes, I agree that HD image looks really sweet, and the clarity is nothing short of amazing !! I was planning to hold out for Blu-Ray but now... who knows.

Take care,

wow, that's some setting!
Took much time to build it?

Now, you have the duty to convert a lot of unbelievers, there :)

No, but it's still a waste of money - for the time being.
I have to say, that is one mighty shiny quality screenshot (it's my wallpaper now), and of course, WELCOME!

Could you take a screen of Kaylee when she is covered with dirt in the beginning of the movie, curious to how it would look.

I've always wanted to build a home theater room, and design it like the bridge of Voyager. However, something tells me I'd soon be single again if I did.

Welcome to the board Cain! Glad to have you here w/ us. Pull up some space & make yourself at home.

Great work on making converts! We can use every single new fan we get. Hopefully those converts will in turn introduce the show to other new people.

Keep it up & keep flyin'!

Quite a shot, Cain.

I'm sure I speak for FollowMal and the rest of the Appreciators when I suggest posting a sample of the Captain, all tender and eyelash-y.

And welcome here to the world's biggest concentration of browncoats. Pull up a strawberry. Check out the chow in the galley.

That's a photo from his screen? I thought it was a direct frame grab when I saw it.
