Had a thought the other day and wanted to pass it along.
With my 1.5 jobs and online biz, it's kinda pathetic, but I don't have 2 hours to spare to go see Serenity again. So how can I support this shiny movie to make my voice heard that I want sequels?
I buy a ticket.
Fandango is my friend. Do a search for "Serenity" and then put in a zip code. Use 75023 if you want - we've got 2 theatres with 4-5 showings a day still running.
The bean counters don't care about butts in seats, they care about ticket sales. So if your little town isn't playing Serenity any more, hop on Fandango and buy a ticket in some other city. It's obvious the rush is over, so you're not keeping anyone from seeing the movie buy purchasing a ticket to a movie you aren't going to show up at. Buy a ticket to the first showing on a week day and you're pretty much assured you're not taking someone's seat.
For $5.50/ticket (matinee showing for above zip code plus Fandango service fee), you can make a difference in these last days before the DVD hits the shelves. Just think if everyone reading this only bought 1 ticket ... we might get that sequel yet. ;)
