Devastating news from theonetrueb!x, founder of the Can't Stop the Serenity charity screenings:

Word filters out today that Can’t Stop the Serenity, the worldwide charity event which I founded in 2006 and which thus far has raised more than $160,000 for Equality Now faces an unexpected challenge: The destruction (against very clear and explicit instructions inside Universal itself, I should make clear) of all but twelve of the domestically-available prints of the film.

In essence, this means that any American city which has not yet booked a print of the film for its event this year will have to decide whether to change to another date (if they were aiming for the central dates) in order to book a print, stick with the central weekend of the event but project the film from a DVD (if their venue even has the capability to do so), or cancel their event altogether (something I assume all cities would only consider as a last resort).

Browncoats have been thrown some hard cheese before and we still come out all right, so don't think for a second that there won't be charity screenings. Just may have to get more creative, that's all… Be sure to keep an eye on CantStoptheSerenity.com for more news.
