You can't stop the signal...
Tonight we went to the special screening of "Serenity" in Charlotte, as posted previously. We were afraid that we might not make it because of the weather, but it calmed down just in time for us to drive down there. Its about an hour and a half to Charlotte from here.
Anyhoo...its nice to see the movie with 100 like minded fans, and not just a bunch of folks filling a cinema who're saying "what's this about again?"
We didnt' get there in time to get any t-shirts tho, so hopefully organizer Tanya can find out for me if there's any anywhere to be had. They were nice shirts, with the ship's isignia and the dates June 22-24, 2006.
Hopefully it'll become an annual event. I like watching the movie on the big screen rather than just my little 27 inch TV. Which is fine too...but I think you get the point.
I also ordered the Firefly DVDs when we got home. I'd looked now and again whenever we'd gone out DVD shopping, but never saw it. Amazon's got it for $24.99. We should have it well before James' birthday.
Tanya if you read this, thanks for all the hard work you and the other Browncoats put into this. Sorry we couldn't get to the after party! Hope everyone had fun :-)
