Video: Fans sing to Joss. Check out the A/V room on the Serenity site to see Joss at the June 23 Riverside pre-screening, and watch some loyal Browncoats wish him a happy birthday. REG REQ.

Wow, that's some bad singing! Looks like a lot of fun.

Thanks Succatash that was nice to see.

Love the Strongbad reference:

"Just the claps! Just the claps..."

I was disappoointed that my friends and I weren't in any of the pictures from the event, but now I'm SO much happier! We all got to be in a video singing happy birthday to Joss...a tear forms from happines.

Dhoffryn | July 12, 04:46 CET

Wow, that's just too cool.

filmgoddess from the Serenity board is putting together a video from all the footage of the venues who sang "Happy Birthday" to Joss. In Vancouver, our video came from the picnic we had in June where we also sang "The Ballad of Serenity" (on the DVD) and "Hero of Canton" (thankfully excluded :)).

By now Joss should have most of the 33 banners and one birthday card from the screenings. I think he may have to add a room to his house! LOL

I do believe I recognize someone in that little clip. *coughSNTcough*

Joss. Right there in front of you. Not jealous at all. Nope. Not me. :)

Angela | July 12, 06:38 CET

Well thanks for blowing my cover, Ang . . . :)

I think I can now die happy, having fulfilled one of my great personal ambitions of being in a movie with Joss. (Although, frankly, I hate seeing myself on film). Thanks for filming that, whoever it was, and thanks Succatash for posting it here. Yippee!

SoddingNancyTribe | July 12, 06:45 CET

Ahh, that was sweet:) I just wish Joss would have worn the littl' pointy hat. Thanks for providing the links, Succatash.

Madhatter | July 12, 07:24 CET

SNT was that you who they zoomed in?

charisma | July 12, 07:47 CET

No, it wasn't, charisma. That was a really nice guy who stood pretty close to me in the line - and I have no idea why they zoomed in on him. I'm any one of the other really good looking and young, yes *young*, guys standing there. Just pick one. :)

Didn't Joss look great? A wee bit tired (understandably so - he told us he'd been in the recording studio doing the score all day), but more youthful than ever. *coughgratuitiescoughthanksjosscough*

(Added) Oh, shout out to Michael, the young guy in blue also holding a video camera who was good enough to take one of my spare tix. Hi, Michael!
And the gorgeous redhead talking to Joss is Rosalie, the Riverside mover 'n shaker who coordinated the banner and such. Yay!

SoddingNancyTribe | July 12, 07:51 CET

Thank you, Succotash, I always have a devil of a time finding links on my own at the official site. Joss was so funny and gracious with this, I want him to be my bestest friend!

aver | July 12, 08:34 CET

Awww. That was so sweet!

non sequitur | July 12, 13:59 CET

What a great clip. *trying to stifle envy of those who live in CA*

The Do That Girl | July 12, 14:48 CET

SNT, I had seen a few still pictures of Joss from the day and thought that he did look great. Relaxed, very happy and yes, far younger than his years. I don't understand why he keeps going on about his weight. He looks great. Yeah, yeah, I know. It's a thing. Now I have to go back and find you.

Lioness | July 12, 20:22 CET

SNT, you're starting to become a "Where's Waldo". Spotted you in the video, but I won't ruin the challenge for the other members. BTW, you look good. Again, thanks so much for covering these events for us.

Must agree with Lioness, I thought Joss looked great.

Madhatter | July 12, 20:51 CET

Madhatter, what is SNT wearing?

Lioness | July 12, 21:02 CET

Sorry, Lioness. That's cheating. You know what kind of 'right hand man' SNT has always been towards Joss at these events.

Madhatter | July 12, 21:14 CET

I spotted SNT in the pictures, but when I first saw this clip, I didn't notice him until I read this thread. Then I went back and watched again, and yup, there's SNT.

It looks to me like Joss has lost weight. But I don't like to mention people's weight in forums because it's a touchy subject, and it really doesn't matter. I just hope he's staying healthy. He looks hot though. Hee!

electricspacegirl | July 12, 21:40 CET

SNT, you're starting to become a "Where's Waldo".

Look what I did. *giggle*

Angela | July 12, 22:01 CET

I'm so glad Universal put out footage of that. I was so relieved and glad when Rosalie volunteered for Riverside, at that point, I counted the project a success, and anything above that was pure gravy. And there was lots and lots of gravy. It was a great international Browncoat effort. Great work, one and all.

k8cre8 | July 12, 22:31 CET

oooh that made me all happy.
And there you are, SNT! Where's my prize?

lone fashionable wolf | July 12, 23:19 CET

If he ever starts wearing contacts instead of glasses, how will be find ~~Waldo~~ SNT at all these events?

BTW, we in Providence were just as off-key as you all in Riverside. :-)

chickenbird | July 12, 23:21 CET

Well, if he insists on hiding almost immediately, how can we be expected to see him? SNT, that is!

Lioness | July 13, 03:31 CET

Haha, Lioness, I noticed that too. ;)

electricspacegirl | July 13, 04:48 CET

I think he's just being respectful and trying to stay out of frame. There's nothing to read into it.
