I saw the Serenity trailer this weekend, and HOLY SH*T

[4_Legs_Good]

I think we're in for good times!!!

I can't wait. I hope it's good enough that they, as they say, make a TV show out of it!

Any chance it'll be that successful? There's hardly anything else in the theaters worth watching right now (that I know of), so maybe it'll kick the box office's ass!

:crosses fingers:

1. define 'successful'

it's make 25 million the first week, 15-20 the next. No one will go see this except the junkies, of whom there weren't enough to keep the thing on TeeVee.

it'll do well on DVD though. That's what they're going for, DVD within 5 months of theatrical release.

5. Sucessful means to beat silly Peter Jackson movies

at the box office!

:)

Comeon, not even with nothing else worth watching in the theaters? I think that people want to go see movies, but there's nothing worth seeing. Put something worth seeing out there and people will go.

I saw "40 Year Old Virgin" this weekend, and it was good, but not *THAT* good that it tops the box office charts for 2 weeks raking in over $70M already. Still, it's probably the best thing out there.

But maybe you're right.

Hmmmmm...

2. Serenity???

6. Gah!

It's the movie based on the quickly canceled by FOX show "Firefly" by Joss Whedon.

It'll be his first movie (directed) I think since the original Buffy film.

3. I have'nt heard of it, but from the picture, it looks like a movie I

will go see. I just saw star wars. I was happy to see it still in the theatre, although hard to find in my area.

7. Ooooh, it'll be better than Star Wars

At least better than the prequels!

It's more serious Sci-fi. It's the movie based on the "Firefly" TV show by Joss Whedon. It *should* rock!

4. I am looking forward to this.

Hm...it's out Sept. 30. I take the LSATs Oct. 1, so I probably won't be seeing it when it comes out, but it'll be soon thereafter.

8. What kind of a geek is into Joss Whedon stuff??

:yoiks:

[4_Legs_Good]

12. They'd have to be totally geeky!!!

I actually didn't see it myself, my FRIEND saw it and thought it would be good. He doesn't post on DU, so I thought I would ummmmmm post for him.

You know how it is.

9. Nope! You'll have to skip the LSATs

Sorry!

Priorities, priorities!

13. Good luck!

Be sure you're good on the logic games; those can make or break you!

[eyesroll]

14. Thanks!

:hi:

I'm getting comfortable with them -- been averaging 18/24 or so on self-administered practice tests. (First try was an 11. Eek. Best try was a 21!)

My diagrams tend to look nothing like the ones the books advise, but they work, so, hey.

[ahem]

15. Oh, I've been counting the days until Serenity!

I can not wait!!! :bounce:
