regarding Serenity

Adam Baldwin (who some of you know as Jayne Cobb from Firefly) got to screen a rough copy of Serenity (I am sooo jealous!). So, since I love him so and hope to see him in September, I thought I'd post his feelings on the movie. I heart-wick AB!

It's great. "Serenity" is a great movie.

With temp effects, the BDM still kicks a$$!!! You'll love it! Every single one of our beloved cast of characters (and some newbies) are well-served and showcased in a loving and thrilling way... even Jayne. ;- )

Joss is our hero!

We all went out to Nate's favorite sushi restaurant afterwards and had a grand time, hic!

Can't talk story, but the movie is one of the most unique and exciting film experiences I've ever witnessed. Riveting...

I'm sure you'll all agree.

Informational chestnut:

Apparently there will be some test screenings in the very near future. I know not when, or where. Mitch can, if he is available, certainly give the particulars about the protocols of this stage in the process; and how the reactions in those tests affect the forward momentum of the BDM. That marketing and promotional stuff is way above my pay-grade. :- )

Serenity and love to all,

A.B.
(can't wait to see it again)


Yay. Now I have to wait till September to see it! Rar! But hopefully, I have a visit with AB and the rest of the Serenity cast at the DragonCon/Browncoat Ball this Sept in Atlanta. Wheee! I need to order those tickets.


Okay, back to Peer Gynt.

More Serenity

Again, putting off very urgent homework, I am on the internet. I wondered, since Adam said the whole cast got to watch Serenity, if Jewel (Staite, Kaylee [and, point of interest, Catalina from Space Cases]) had a post about it in her blog. (Yeah, I'm a stalker. So?) And sure enough she did. So here it is.


5 December 2004
I know I just wrote not too long ago, but I have some news.

I just saw Serenity.

What to say about this without giving too much away? I was moved. I was proud. I was excited and breathless and open-mouthed and tearful. I still can't believe we were able to do this, to make this movie and to work with each other again. We got another shot, and I think we made the most of it. It's just the right amount of shocking and just the right amount of "Firefly" goodness... but it does stand on its own.

I have faith in this thing. I cannot wait until the rest of you get to see it. I can't wait to see your reactions and hear what you have to say. I hope you love it as much as we do.

We had a chance to have dinner with Nathan (who put us up in his home while we were in town... since we live in Vancouver-- for the moment) and the rest of the cast, and Joss afterwards. It was so nice to see everyone, and to share my first "screening" with the rest of the troops. I felt unbelievably proud of everyone.

Anyway, I just had to share. The wait, I hope, will be worth it. If you liked Firefly, you'll love this! And not just 'cause it's, like, three times the size and two hours long!!

Love, Jewel




And now I have a craving for Hokkaido sushi (thanks, Nathan!) and I really wanna see Serenity now! Oy, is it September yet?!?!
