I'm so jealous! Tom got to see an advance screening of the movie Serenity and he excellently writes about it here. I'm slightly miffed because after I got hooked on the series Firefly (on which the movie is based), I kept urging Tom to watch it. "You're gonna love it!," I'd say. "Trust me, You've got to watch it!!"... and he did... and he subsequently got just as hooked as I was... and he got to see the movie before me. Bastard!
Serenity officially comes out in theatres on Sept. 30th. You have 4 weeks to rent the (14 episode) series on DVD if you want to fully appreciate the experience.
Now you know how it felt for me when Shaun of the Dead, a movie I'd been waiting for for years, didn't turn up in Norwegian cinemas, so undeserving Americans got to see it months before me. People who'd never even HEARD of it before it suddenly arrived in American Cinemas. People who'd never heard of the TV series Spaced before at all.
I hate them all!
Not really, of course. But still.
Jeez, I better get going on the Firefly marathon with my friends.
