Hi there!
I am an Australian-born Browncoat who very recently moved to Kent, I am just outside London and dismayed to find that there is nothing firm about a screening there as yet... I personally know at least 4 browncoats who live in London and I've only lived here for a couple of weeks! Surely we can get one happening..
Having said this I am flat broke and might not be in the country for the two weeks leading up to the screening so whilst I would love to offer support and assistance to anyone planning a screening I couldn't realisticly offer to be the main person to organise it all!
I have attended screenings for the last 2 years - it's just on 2 years since I first discovered Firefly actually so that's not bad going! I have friends who were involved in the last CSTS screening in Melbourne and I think others in Sydney! I know the support and attendance can be found, but I don't know how to get it happening!
Haldira, you are awesome! Wish I could just pop over to Texas!
For those up north, perhaps I could make it up there - I used to live in Tunstall (S-O-T) Staffs so I know that area myself - Buxton is pretty and not far from there and it's only half an hour away from MAnchester. I could perhaps combine a visit to my family and friends with the screening as I ought to have the next week off work! (I am a nanny)
Anyway - there are a couple of suggestions and offers of support to consider! PM me if you like - I will check in each day!
I am also a member of the 76th battalion, like Haldira! (don't know if that's helpful - but might be interesting anyway!)
NB: Last year I think the print we used in Melbourne was, in fact, a disc... we were in a 'Art Theatre' which held a fair few folk, but had the ability to screen a DVD copy of the movie - perhaps check with Jenski Jenn on this one, as I wasn't involved in the organisation, but I think I recall someone mentioning it at the time. This could negate any bad quality of print!
