Re: BSG motivational posters
Thu, May 22, 2008 - 10:28 PMGo go go, BSG! I'm almost done with season 2, this series has made a fan out of me. Anyone else out there like it? I know Enrika has watched at least some BSG, but she is out and around somewhere in zee world.
I'm going to be posting some BSG screencaps to my personal photo album in a few minutes. -

Re: BSG motivational posters
Sat, May 24, 2008 - 2:18 PMIt's true that I've been watching BSG lately, but I initially only watched the first five or so eps of season 1, then went straight into whatever season we're in (and I've missed one or two of these as well). I totally screwed it up, and now when I go back and watch the whole thing from the beginning (which I'm planning to do very soon), I'll already know a bunch of things I'm not supposed to know for a long time.
*sigh*
If only I could unsee what I've already seen...
Those posters are great, BTW. :) -

Re: BSG motivational posters
Sun, May 25, 2008 - 1:55 PM"will not make the same mistake as enrika did"
Just by way of an explanation, the only reason I began watching the current season when it premiered a couple/few months ago, without having watched more than the first few episodes of season one, was to humor a lover in Phoenix, into whose pants I was attempting to gain repeated access.
Obviously, men make me stupid.
Actually, I'd like some advice from the BSG watchers in here: I've seen the first few episodes of the latest season, but then I missed one or two, and have a couple/few saved up on my DVR. My friend in Phoenix has the entire DVD set from season one forward, and is going to send them to me to watch in order. Should I just delete the eps that are on my DVR right now, and not watch any more current eps until I've gotten through the rest of the series? Or have I already screwed everything up beyond repair by watching the first few eps of the current season, and now it doesn't matter if I continue watching them or not? -

Re: BSG motivational posters
Sun, May 25, 2008 - 2:25 PMNow there's a dilema!
(((Enrika))) -

Re: BSG motivational posters
Sun, May 25, 2008 - 2:32 PM*laughing*
Which? The BSG issue, or men making me stupid? -

Re: BSG motivational posters
Sun, May 25, 2008 - 2:40 PMYikes - a dilema of a dilema!
I was referring to the BSG issue, but men making you stupid could be seen as the greatest dilema ; ) Or would that be a dichotomy? -
-
This is the maximum depth. Additional responses will not be threaded.
Re: BSG motivational posters
Sun, May 25, 2008 - 2:58 PMI don't know if it's a dilemma or a dichotomy, but I certainly have a litany of effects that I could recite from a lifelong susceptibility to male-induced stupidity.
Funny, it's always the *men* who are accused of letting the little head think for the big head. Geez, I could write a book on the subject. It would, of course, be a cautionary tale. -

Re: BSG motivational posters
Sun, May 25, 2008 - 7:00 PMThere are many surprises you have missed in past episodes... I would hold off on any more new ones until you have seen the old ones.
"Everything in its right place." There is still much to take in that you've not seen.
This website has been a great help, because I have had a hard time getting each season's DVDs:
www.sidereel.com/Battlestar_Galactica
Not always a full screen link, but often enough. -

Re: BSG motivational posters
Sun, May 25, 2008 - 7:14 PM"I would hold off on any more new ones until you have seen the old ones."
I just got off the phone with my friend in Phoenix, and he advised me similarly. He's going to send me season one asap. He said that it might be less cool since I already know things I'm not supposed to know for a long time, but he said that it's a story, and it's not just about knowing the ending (or plot points, or whatever). He said that it's about the telling of the story, and that it's a good telling, so it's still worth my while to go back to the beginning and work my way up.
That sidereel link is *awesome*. I don't know how much of a tendency my friend has to procrastinate, but if he takes a while and I get impatient, I'll go ahead and use that.
Thanks for the advice. :) -

Re: BSG motivational posters
Sun, May 25, 2008 - 7:32 PMThis post and short conversation on sidereel has me excited... I thought they would be ending the season soon, but it is apparently going to be split up into two segments of 10 episodes each.
www.sidereel.com/_post/7972
"According to Wikipedia: "Owing to production delays caused by the 2007-2008 Writers Guild strike, it has been reported that the fourth season will be split into two 10-episode pieces, the second part of which may air as late as 2009.""
There's also talk of a movie at some point. -

Re: BSG motivational posters
Tue, May 27, 2008 - 12:59 AMi would love to see the movie. i saw Serenity first and then the series Firefly. That worked okay.
I should just get the dvd's and watch them. . .i do like the series well enough, from the few dvd episodes i saw in series one.
i like sci fi and i will see just about any sci fi film. . -

Re: BSG motivational posters
Tue, May 27, 2008 - 1:36 AMthat sidereel.com link a few posts up (oh, here it is again, why not?: www.sidereel.com/Battlestar_Galactica ) leaves little reason to buy the DVDs... each episode has (out of the many links) a link to via www.watchfreetvshows.net, which, once you click play and it buffers up, and you hit play again, you can click the video yet again (yes, 3 times total) and it will open up the video in a new window (or tab depending on your browser) which you can then maximize to fullscreen. The quality isn't *as good,* but it is still very watchable.

Re: BSG motivational posters
Tue, May 27, 2008 - 1:38 AMAnother very enjoyable SciFi was "Sunshine"
us.imdb.com/title/tt0448134/
trailer: www.youtube.com/watch
The sun is going out and so humans construct a neutron bomb and send it toward the sun to detonate and reignite it. The first mission mysteriously fails, so they use up the last remaining fissionable material on Earth to give it one last shot or go extinct. -

Re: BSG motivational posters
Tue, May 27, 2008 - 2:19 AMAlso there is a Turok movie coming out... not SciFi, but that was such a fun game... the first 1st person shooter game to go up against dinosaurs, even dinosaurs wielding rocket launchers and miniguns. Hope the movie does it justice. If not, I imagine the next Turok game will be incredible. -

Re: BSG motivational posters
Tue, May 27, 2008 - 3:09 AMIf any of you end up using the BSG links I've provided, *DO NOT* use the battlestaronline.info or battlestargalacticax.info links...
Adware and spyware will ensue. The other links are fine as far as I know. I'll update if I find out any of the other links are bad.
The best ones are the www.watchfreetvshows.net/ and slaz.info and tudou.com and youku.com

Re: BSG motivational posters
Fri, June 13, 2008 - 6:40 PMThe latest episode of BSG airs today, season 4 episode 10, Revelations....it's the midseason finale, no new episodes until early next year :(
I haven't seen it yet, it's on at 9pm... glad I'm caught up and able to catch it before heading to a party @ 11... my kind of night!
I think they will reveal the final Cylon in this episode...
latest BSG news (no spoilers, don't worry):

'Battlestar's' final season expands; TV movie looking good
As "Battlestar Galactica" gets ready to air its mid-season finale on Friday, there are two bits of good news to share regarding the show.
According to well-informed sources, it’s almost certain that at least one “Battlestar Galactica” TV movie will be made this year.
Here’s even better news: Up to two hours may be added to “Battlestar’s” final run of episodes.
You heard that right: The last leg of the show’s final season could expand to 12 hours, instead of the originally planned 10 hours.
As he discussed here, the show’s executive producer, Ronald D. Moore, wrote "Battlestar's" final episode, which could be up to three hours long (a wild guess here: Sci Fi probably wouldn’t air the whole thing in one night). Mary McDonnell described her reaction to the script this way: It filled her with "an incredible feeling of adrenaline,” she told Ain't It Cool News. “It made me understand the entire saga, and made me excited for all of you.”
UPDATE: Here's a statement from from a Sci Fi spokesman: "As written by Ron, the phenomenal finale script extends beyond the time alotted for the episode. We're exploring how to shoot the extra footage as Ron has envisioned and written it."
As for when the final part of Season 4 will air, Moore has told TV Guide that it’s probably going to be in 2009. (Update: EOnline.com reports that the president of Sci Fi has said the last episodes will begin airing in the "first quarter" of 2009.)
Regarding the “Battlestar” TV movie, as "Razor" did, it will probably air on Sci Fi first then be released on DVD within days (the preceding sentence was updated with new information from a Sci Fi rep). There’s no word on who will be in the movie, what it will be about and when it will air. All of that is still to be determined.
In a previous story, I’d reported that up to three films were being considered. Whether the other two “Battlestar” TV movies will get made is an open question at this point, but it is possible, according to my sources and according to Galactica Sitrep (which also has wall-to-wall coverage of Wednesday’s screening of the mid-season finale at Los Angeles’ Cinerama Dome).
Stay tuned for more “Battlestar” thoughts: I’ll have a blog post up on Friday’s mid-season finale, “Revelations,” this weekend. (The photo above is of Katee Sackhoff as Kara "Starbuck" Thrace in "Revelations.") -
