As is probably obvious from the flight suit I'm wearing in the photo I have up on this blog, I'm a raving
Browncoat.
I've been a part of our local fan group since it's inception, and at this point almost all of my friends are as well (a combination of new friends and old friends who have joined the fold). Last night, we once again took over a theater.
Last month we held our wildly successful (we raised at least $10,000)
annual charity screening of Serenity, and now the
Mission Theater here in town has seen fit to show Firefly in it's entirety over the course of the next several Tuesdays.
We packed the place:
312 people, at ten o'clock on a Tuesday night. It was 100+ degrees yesterday, and well over 70 by the time we wrapped up, and people still came out in droves.
Portland is sort of the epicenter of Firefly fandom, and oh boy did we show it last night.
