Please go to your calendars, PDAs or other memory aids and write on September 30th, ‘SERENITY opens in theatres’. Right now. Go do it. I’ll wait.

Back? Good. Now, on this day or one soon after it, you will gather those people you like and care about…and those whose money you wish Joss Whedon to share in…and go to see Serenity. My reasons for this are manifold, and are as follows:

UNSELFISH:

• I love Joss Whedon and wish him and his creative endeavors to prosper, flourish, and rejoice.
• My love for Joss is giving and unjealous and I wish the world to enjoy the beautiful glistening fruits of his brain.

SELFISH:

• I wish him to make more. For this he needs your money and demographic vote.

That is all I can tell you, my friends. I cannot even tell you whether it is one of my favorite movies, for I was too distracted by loving it to think about other movies and compare. Go. Watch it. As many times as you see fit. Somewhere in this ragged, horrible little world, there’s something that’s just…right.
