The article is basically about how bad the movies are this year but a theater manger saw a prescreening and well....you know!

Cool.. and almost subversive how it was worked into the article, too. Like "Yeah, all the current movies sucks. But Serenity is really great sci-fi." And then without it being a story on Serenity, they just move on.

I was thinking the same thing. At the New Jersey screening, the theater general manager was talking about how his theater is the largest in NJ and he also has the largest screen and yet he NEVER had a movie sell out in 15 minutes (actually 12 minutes.) I asked him if he was going to show Serenity on his biggest screen and he responded: "Hell, yes!"

The Theatre Mananger at Albany was talking with the crowds of Browncoats that had lined up about an hour before the movie. He seemed quite interested in what we were about. He mentioned something about how he has never seen so much interest in a movie or an advance screening. I think he was impressed by us Browncoats.
