Serenity!


So... today is the day of the screening "Blogger's Bonanza." I'm going with a friend of mine from work (two tickets, but my wife is playing mom tonight, unfortunately), so I'll include his thoughts in my review tonight, too.

I'll be honest. When I heard about this while "free tickets for bloggers" thing, my first reaction was one of skepticism. (Okay... that's not quite true. My first reaction was "Hey! Free stuff!" After that, though, I was skeptical. Why would they give me free tickets if the movie was any good?) I've been doing some research, though, and now I'm really looking forward to this movie.

I've spoken (either in person or online) with several people that saw the original series, Firefly, when it was on. Every single one of them spoke highly of it, and expressed excitement about the release of the movie. Since it seems to have much the same creative team and much of the same cast for the movie, that's encouraging.

As an aside for those that might be interested, the SciFi channel is running all 11 episodes of the original series this week. Fire up the Tivo!
