Was kinda disappointed that the big meeting to hash out wonky political questions turned into "nominate a vice president, then incongruously party." major lol @ bangin the reporter in the bathroom. The mad scientist being vp with prez's looming expiration date is interesting but also kinda says something's gonna come along to shift the trajectory of some things--there's no way he winds up president. I think.

kinda surprised there was no #occupygalactica meme

Kiarostami bag (milo z), Friday, 6 April 2012 04:49 (twelve years ago) link

Haha yeah when zarrack is on screen I keep finding myself thinking "occupy galactica" and kind of wanting to stick up for the guy who's obv a ~masses fooling populist~

BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Friday, 6 April 2012 04:58 (twelve years ago) link

at occupy's trending-topic height i'm sure i saw adama's face somewhere, i mean george takei was tweeting about occupying arrakis for a while there.

BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Friday, 6 April 2012 06:27 (twelve years ago) link

starbuck going into hysterics seemed weirdly out of character tho imo

BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Friday, 6 April 2012 06:27 (twelve years ago) link

brace yourself, hoostein

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Friday, 6 April 2012 06:38 (twelve years ago) link

I keep thinking the aesthetic reminds me of the game Wing Commander 3.

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Friday, 6 April 2012 06:43 (twelve years ago) link

when do you think you'll be prepared to launch s2?

BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Friday, 6 April 2012 17:04 (twelve years ago) link

Doesn't the "they have a plan" opening change as the show goes on?

it does, but not for the reasons you would hope

Disco Bob & MC Criminal (Shakey Mo Collier), Friday, 6 April 2012 19:28 (twelve years ago) link

the last couple seasons are kinda dire

sarahell, Friday, 6 April 2012 19:31 (twelve years ago) link

haha i mean its all on hulu and i'm unemployed, so

BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Saturday, 7 April 2012 00:00 (twelve years ago) link

I can think of no finer employment, hoos :)

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Saturday, 7 April 2012 00:01 (twelve years ago) link

except the paying kind of course :/

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Saturday, 7 April 2012 00:01 (twelve years ago) link

ha

ok so i guess i'll watch s2e1 tonight

BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Saturday, 7 April 2012 00:06 (twelve years ago) link

2+ per day? Man, I had season 1/2 DVDs from a friend, got the flu, and smashed through 6 - 8 hours for three days. Also, I had a fever.

mh, Saturday, 7 April 2012 00:11 (twelve years ago) link

ha that's what i did with the wire

BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Saturday, 7 April 2012 00:13 (twelve years ago) link

I know more people who cruised through this en masse - Battlestar-athon - than did nearly any other show. Even when it takes a turn toward the not nearly as good as the first two seasons, it stays seriously compelling. You've got some good stuff coming up.

Josh in Chicago, Saturday, 7 April 2012 02:15 (twelve years ago) link

Ok guys I'm goin in

Holy hell @ opening

BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Saturday, 7 April 2012 02:44 (twelve years ago) link

did this when I had an ear infection and gobbled down codeine. it was kind of great.

original bgm, Saturday, 7 April 2012 03:02 (twelve years ago) link

yup, and sure don't forget to watch Razor, i think it was after season 2 ends?

Nhex, Saturday, 7 April 2012 03:14 (twelve years ago) link

^^^^ this

yep, I think it fits in as 2.5 iirc

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Saturday, 7 April 2012 03:17 (twelve years ago) link

Oh shit guys

BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Saturday, 7 April 2012 03:21 (twelve years ago) link

Lol @ totally unbelievable young Adama/tigh

BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Saturday, 7 April 2012 03:22 (twelve years ago) link

Also ew @ new "home called earth" opening overlay

BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Saturday, 7 April 2012 03:23 (twelve years ago) link

I know, the reveal of 'earth' playing a part is basically crushed into indifference with that at the beginning.

Tigh's HAIR

owenf, Saturday, 7 April 2012 09:02 (twelve years ago) link

I'm really hoping that eventually Tigh will do something fucking insanely heroic at some point. I bet he goes out in some sort of awesome self sacrifice to save Adama.

owenf, Saturday, 7 April 2012 10:11 (twelve years ago) link

trying to work out the fx for this show too. What was on that was comparable in terms of budget and fx? Space battles look pretty awesome but I'm always a bit disappointed when I see a Cylon (robo version).

owenf, Saturday, 7 April 2012 10:12 (twelve years ago) link

CHIEF NEEDS A RAISE

owenf, Saturday, 7 April 2012 10:15 (twelve years ago) link

couldn't bring myself to finish this by the end

༼◍ྀ ౪ ◍ི ༽ (cozen), Saturday, 7 April 2012 10:18 (twelve years ago) link

CHIEF NEEDS A RAISE
--owenf

And a promotion

Realest of talking.

BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Saturday, 7 April 2012 18:46 (twelve years ago) link

chief is <3

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Saturday, 7 April 2012 18:48 (twelve years ago) link

Reading about you watching this is making me v. v. happy. I love this show so much. (ALL OF IT.)

carl agatha, Saturday, 7 April 2012 19:08 (twelve years ago) link

Only a Cylon spy would love all of it.

Josh in Chicago, Saturday, 7 April 2012 19:12 (twelve years ago) link

^^^ put this guy out an airlock tbh

Frank Youngenstein (Phil D.), Saturday, 7 April 2012 19:16 (twelve years ago) link

Only a Cylon would suggest that. Clearly, you should go out the airlock!

Josh in Chicago, Saturday, 7 April 2012 19:21 (twelve years ago) link

(Show in a nutshell^)

Josh in Chicago, Saturday, 7 April 2012 19:22 (twelve years ago) link

I am a cylon spy masquerading as a cylon spy masquerading as an airlock and I love ALL this show too (except for the last few scenes of the last ep)

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Saturday, 7 April 2012 21:29 (twelve years ago) link

Are Dee and Billy going to have that on/off dynamic for the whole of the show?

owenf, Saturday, 7 April 2012 21:44 (twelve years ago) link

TELL HER YOU LOVER HER MAN

owenf, Saturday, 7 April 2012 21:44 (twelve years ago) link

Haha, I just remembered that the miniseries, and I think one of the early episodes, had a version of the kid Boxey from the OG series. Moore and co. must have been like, "LOL fuck that, nobody liked that character ever and this is not a show about little kids."

Frank Youngenstein (Phil D.), Saturday, 7 April 2012 23:52 (twelve years ago) link

yeah, he was on some of the deleted scenes, i think. they eventually decided to just cut him out altogether

Nhex, Sunday, 8 April 2012 00:21 (twelve years ago) link

what idiot let 'Crashdown' head up a mission to Kobol. Tempting fate.
