Hey guys.

I'm here on the official site, so that can only mean one thing: somebody finally told me my password! (Again.) It probably also means that I have some big-ass announcement or other. Well tops on the announcement list is this: after months of intensive yoga, i can finally touch my toes! (They feel round and bunion-y.)

But there's more! I'm talkin' movie news, peeps, so no more drumroll: Trailer. Serenity. Tuesday.

Yeah, kids, the haps is hap'nin', and it runs thus: EXCLUSIVELY on Apple movie trailers (and linked through this site as well of course) will be a small, medium, large or FULLSCREEN trailer for Serenity the major motion movie. Yeah, THE trailer. And the following Friday said trailer hits theaters. Which theaters? Until I get confirmation you'll have to guess, but I'm betting you can.

Now, here's a word of warning: this trailer ain't shy. If you're looking to live totally spoiler-free, know that there's plenty of key dialogue and images running through this bad boy. It's pretty tasty, though, and it doesn't give everything away. But close scrutiny will definitely learn you much of what's to come. (Anakin TOTALLY goes evil.) It's a nice piece to while away the time till September, and hopefully should intrigue th' peeps that don't have coats of brown.

The only thing more exciting than y'all finally seeing this was showing it to Nathan. Like a schoolboy giggled he.

Bye-ee!

Joss "You can't take my toes from me" Whedon.


Next Friday coincides with the release of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, as expected.

This is really shiny news!

I can't wait! I know very little about the movie, but I can't help but wonder if they are going to sell out by making it aimed at a more general audience. Star Trek did this with their TNG movies.

It's up! Link:

http://www.apple.com/trailers/universal/serenity/

You need Quicktime to view the Large trailer, and iTunes to view the fullscreen trailer.

It kicks serious ass!

That was so cool! I definitely want to see this movie in theatres! It's got the same feel as the series.

The thing that impressed me so much about Firefly was the way it made me feel. There were times when I hated it because it just . . . was so different from the sci-fi I've been spoonfed. But I couldn't stop watching because it was interesting and ultimately, very witty. I think that if a show is good enough that it will make viewers continue watching even when they might want to turn away, then it deserves a movie.

Incidentally, I'm glad I haven't uninstalled iTunes yet (I never use it so I was going to uninstall it last weekend, but was too lazy).

The trailer was a bit flashy and I'm not sure I like that. I hope the movie does not lose much of what made Firefly a great show.

It's an attention-getter, which is what I think Serenity needs to do well at the box office.

Reviews are starting to come in from the recent pre-screening.

So far, everyone says it kicks ass.

The biggest concern seems to be that there might be too much packed into the movie for those unfamiliar with the series to follow everything.

I've been away for a couple of months and where I was wouldn't let me post so I'll take this time now to yell "Hoorah!" and cheer for Serenity.

I, for one, cannot wait. Forget Star Wars, this is gonna be my favourite film of the year! Plus, to make matters even better, my copy of Finding Serenity arrived in the post today though had to have it imported from the USA because couldn't find it anywhere in the UK. Grrr - still at least it is here now.

Also, while I'm on the subject, I know there's gonna be a Serenity comic series acting as a sort-of prequel to the film. I'm interested in getting them but have never bought a comic before. I know there aren't any comic retailers in any of the nearby cities so wondered, does anyone know of a UK online distributor of comics that has (for pre-order) or will have the Serenity comics?

Cheers all.
