- Mark_H, on 10/12/2007, -3/+1On the same date, it will be released on torrentspy for free. $30 is a lot for a DVD 8|
- eltaito, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0i have recently become a big fan of the movie and series but there is no way i am paying $30 for a dvd....i understand they want to make their money back on this film and are betting that all the fans will buy it but im out..maybe they should have tried opening the film in the same number of theaters as a normal movie or something else more practical...30 bucks just seems a little unrealistic IMO
- rebal, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2That's just the MSRP. Most stores won't charge that much. Revenge of the Sith has the same MSRP and you can get it for $15.

http://www.diggfans.com - dperrin, on 10/12/2007, -3/+1Great....more Serenity news....
- FamilyGuy, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1Seriously, I agree with dperrin. It seems a bit overrated... Along with Star Wars, Harry Potter.... the list goes on. *sigh*
- Guano, on 10/12/2007, -3/+0So... what movies aren't over rated?
- jacoplane, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I'm going to buy this even though I don't watch DVDs. I really hope Serenity will do very well on DVD sales, and make a profit, so more movies in the same vein will get a chance to see daylight.

Cheap bastard. Ask your mom for some money. I gave her some last night, so you should be able to get it. - teamparadox, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1"Seriously, I agree with dperrin. It seems a bit overrated... Along with Star Wars, Harry Potter.... the list goes on. *sigh*"
Id you say that it means you havent seen it, which means you DONT have an opinion. - ToadX, on 10/12/2007, -3/+1Oh god... why do you guys keep digging Serenity related items. The movie failed horribly. Get over it.
- airhead, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0does anyone know where i can get a discount if i do a bulk order? you know, xmas presents =D
- gronne, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2This means you could actually watch Serenity on your iPod!
(75% of Digg users heads just exploded) - Jeebugorn, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0interesting.....BUT you can get the whole season of firefly for $29 at amazon/deepdiscountdvd/bestbuy (in store). 13 hours for $29 or 2 hours for $29...hmmmmmmmm *cough*price gouge*cough cough*
- NekoFever, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4ALL DVDs have an MSRP of $30, but nowhere sells them for that much because there's a bit of a price war going on. I'm buying this whatever the price just because I loved it and it deserves to make more than the crap that was Revenge of the Sith.
- Incognito, on 10/12/2007, -3/+1WOW YEAH THIS IS NEWS, NOT.
NO DIGG
And if I could negative digg I would. - Protoss, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Um...this doesn't count as news? I dunno but it sounds like news to me. I am sure as hell gonna buy it. Only downloaded the show cuz I couldn't find the box set anywhere around me.
- ImaFraud, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Thirty bucks.. big deal. If they make enough money on this, they will most assuredly make a sequel.
/Buying two - vanlandw, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0waiting for the two disk...looks like a nice disk for christmas though.
- Brereton55, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0cool cant wait
- johcha, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0What's the history on Serenity? Why is there such a big deal about it in tech circles?
- ILL_Robinson, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Serenity is finally coming out on DVD! Where it belongs....
- Topaz420, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I really enjoyed the movie a great continuation of the series, i hope they make another (movie or series)
- Guano, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3johcha, Firefly (the series) lived a too short life on Fox (those guys are idiots) because is wasn't known by many. It should have been much bigger, though because of the excellent writing, character development, and action. It got really popular, mostly by word of mouth, when it came out on DVD (when I discovered it). Bottom line is Fox did a crappy job of promoting it. Got picked up by Universal, they were planning on making three films but it looks like that might not happen now.
- TheGooseyOne, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1cements this movies image as a major flop
- xenoNfluX, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2"Oh god... why do you guys keep digging Serenity related items. The movie failed horribly. Get over it."
Sales does not a good movie make. Star Wars prequels, anyone?
Serenity got rave reviews, but flopped. Why? Number one reason was that it didn't have any major actors. Doom did fairly well because it has The Rock. Welcome to reality. - Ravenlock, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Dug because I didn't know it, I wanted to know it, and now I do know it. Thanks, OP.
As for the movie being a flop, as xenonflux pointed out so well, if sales indicate a good film then Doom was better than most of the movies you like. Feel free to keep panning the film without seeing it, though. Your loss. - techietown, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0well i know this'll probably be amoung the very few movies in my collection that i'll actually pay for :), and of course office space extra special edition.
- sabster, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0can someone tell me what is up with this movie and why everyone seems to like it from this website? i guess i will have to see it..
- itzac, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1It just goes to show how important marketing is to the success of a film. Or TV series. They screwed up when they first aired the series, showing the second episode as the pilot to confuse anyone who wanted to watch it, and then proceeding to air the rest of the series on Friday nights. Then they just didn't market the movie. The executives behind all of this just didn't have the balls to take a risk on what anyone who's seen Firefly or Serenity will tell you was a SURE THING!!!!!111eleven.
The success of CSI should have been a hint that there is in fact a market for intelligent and witty content in theatres and homes. Instead we have The Rock bringing in more box office cash with an eye-brow wiggle than an entire production team with hours of great writing and acting. - focitrixilousP, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0It's enough to make me cry, almost, that Serenity flopped and Doom is selling well. There isn't much doubt that Serenity was better, but such is the culture of America I guess. Advertizing is everything.
- freonchill, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0msrp $30
thats odd, i just got starwars from best buy for $15
and last half dozen dvds i got there (that have been out for a year or more) were $9.99 or $14.99 also - SkeletaLlama, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Serenity isn't over-hyped at all. Exactly the opposite, it is one of the most under-hyped movies in years. I know you might not believe this, but Digg isn't the whole world. Just because some over-enthusiastic Serenity fans keep posting everything Serenity related to Digg doesn't mean the world has seen it or even heard of it. This is a movie that deserves to be up there with the original star wars trilogy in greatness. Not in innovation but in solid story telling with enjoyable characters, plus it's just damned fun to watch. I myself am getting sick of all the Serenity madness on Digg, but I could watch the show and the movie all day.
- Ryland, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Serenity flopped for the same reason Firefly flopped - it was never supported or promoted by the studio that released it. The only reason anybody ever hears about the show or the movie is because the MANIACAL FANS. Don't get me wrong, I like the show and I liked the movie (and will probably buy the DVD, eventually), but the fans are so obnoxious, I almost never watched the show just out of spite.
- PsycoMonkey, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0Ohhh come on! that cover Sucks...imo.
>. - FamilyGuy, on 10/12/2007, -3/+1Serenity may not be overhyped in general, but it sure as hell has been overhyped on this site. AND IT'S NOT EVEN FRIGGEN TECH NEWS! Once again, I direct people to a part of this site that actually TELLS you to "...follow a few simple guidelines to make digg a better place" and then immediately says "Quality Technology Content: Is your story technology related?" http://www.digg.com/submit
- chrisluby, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I'm not a super fan, nor an apologetic towards Whedon, but It's only fair to base opinions on things that you have personally experienced, or seen. Only young children make snap judgments based on what they hear from others, or what they see on TV. Instead of just posting negative comments for the sake of seeing your words appear on the magic box, try to come up with something a bit more constructive rather than just comment for the sake of commenting.
- MikeDawg, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy. . . Can't wait for those Serenity fanboys to start digging this!!!!
- Mongoose, on 10/12/2007, -2/+0Gawd, why is this movie so damn popular here! It's HORRIBLE!!!1
- Stopher, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Hold the valley people! Buy a Serenity DVD.
- Durrok, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Mongoose is obviously smelling what the rock is cooking
- boscorelle, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0this dvd is a must BUY -- not must torrent

Guess you never submitted a story. There is an option selection for Movies. And I've nver once heard this promoted as a tech news site. It is a social bookmarking site. Keyword Social. - thinbegin, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0serenity is the BigMo**erF**k*r of good current sci-fi. right then. so i guess that anyone who's a dissin' wants to step outside? yeah. that's what i thought.
ps: kaleb plucked zander's eye out! that's messed up! - sabarsky, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0will buy dvd. will watch over and over. :)
- SkeletaLlama, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1This movie is in the IMdB top 250 movies of all time ranking. I would hardly call that a "horrible" movie. What movie did you see Mongoose? Did it move too fast for you? Weren't able to keep up? Did you even see it?
- BigT4187, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Sweet!!
- jawsomemax, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1i loved the movie.. and will make sure to buy the dvd to be able to support firefly!!
- TheDeadMan, on 10/12/2007, -3/+1how the hell did a release of a DVD make FRONT page news... this is pathetic people.. you really need to start thinking about what DIGG.com is FOR not just abusing it for fun.
- cr0wbar, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I will buy it first day on sale. I hate the fact that since people want it to be popular because they enjoy it and want others to, people take that as a challenge to hate it.
