If that message and the Firefly theme aren't somewhere on the DVD there will be fighting words.And seeing the movie in May in a roomful of hardcore fans  was different than seeing the midnight first show with big geeks and was a huge difference from seeing it with a 1/2 empty "mainstream" audience a week later. The different reactions to the witty dialogue are amazing. Also, the mainstream audience seemed much more uncomfortable with the crew fighting amonst themselves. It is also proved to me once again that it is ALWAYS better to see a movie in a packed house (preferably on opening night)  More people, sure, but always more well behaved because they REALLY want to see the movie. And always a better reaction. People laugh and clap and gasp in unison, which relaxes other people enough to vocalize their reactions.</blockquote>
