Serenity Now / Equality Now 2007

Browncoats, it's that time of year again. SERENITY NOW/EQUALITY NOW is happening all over the world next weekend.  Charity screenings of "Serenity" on Joss Whedon's birthday weekend, benefiting Equality Now, an organization with a goal of empowering women and girls around the world.  Not only is it a good cause, but it's also a chance to fly your browncoat flag and see our Big Damn Movie once more on the Big Damn Screen.


For those of you still asking
"What is Firefly?"


Umm, who are you?


In the words of the Bedlam Bards:

 
Big Damn Trilogy  .MP3
tune and lyrics by James Hazlerig

Trilogy, O trilogy, I want my trilogy,
Don't stop at one, Don't stop at two,
Gorramit, gimme three!

Trilogy, O trilogy, that's what I want to see,
Someday I'll own a boxed set
Of that Big Damn Trilogy!

They said we couldn't do it,
They said our show should die,
They took our love, they took our land,
They cancelled our Firefly.
But one thing they didn't reckon,
in our fan psychology:
Browncoats carry Greenbacks,
And we want our trilogy!

CHORUS

KAZOO AND BOWED PSALTERY BREAK

CHORUS

They say the best things in this 'verse,
Always come in threes,
Musketeers and stooges,
LOTR DVDs.
When a show's got ships and shepherds,
The Alliance and Blue Sun,
And Gina and Jewel and Morena and Summer,
It's too pretty to stop at one!

CHORUSX2

AMEN FINISH


Here's what Joss Whedon had to say about Equality Now and the answer to the most asked question: "Why do you write such strong female characters":
