bsg thoughts

[ironymaiden]

i just finished taping the second airing of BSG for markbourne and i'm really tired of the violence against women. could we please hit or kill an annoying man every now and again to balance things out? i'd feel a little better if Adama had been physical with any of his male crewmembers (if someone can cite me an example it would help me.)

is the Tron homage there to distract us from the Matrix vibe with the hybrid?

i'm very interested in the teasing hints about the missing cylon models and Baltar's hallucinations.

this disease thing has come from nowhere and makes no sense. it will either have a huge payoff or be as stupid as the magic cancer cure.

Isolde has experienced final death, and lives in the attic. i may yet extract her hard drive, but she certainly had a long and productive life. meanwhile, bhagwanx facilitated her replacement with an equally old, but much less rickety girl...full of expensive software. since i don't play games, i'm very happy. i can even run photoshop and illustrator at the same time, which i really didn't expect with RAM slots left to fill. i've renamed and repassworded most everything and upgraded the OS and installed firefox and adium. i logged in as root and did not break anything or die. yon Cylon fetus icon was animated on this box. yay.

The disease thing was kind of inevitable eventually (see also Ender's Game). It depressed me because it's so stock 'now-we-turn-the-tables-on-the-oppressors!'. Maybe the cure is magic baby blood.

I think the missing models are the Democrats.

I for one, found the spoilerriffic revelations about the Baltar fantasies to be amazing. I hope that at some time, they review the status of the sixy cylon spoilerama spoiler. I still have a LOT of problems believing that he survived the pilot's opening act. The two of them should be a fine meaty paste, and having just the spoiler be spoilered has been bugging me for a while.

Of course, I never look at the next week blurb, and try to avoid watching Sci-fi on any day but Friday. Hopefully I can remain spoiler free for another 6 days.

yeah, i've been suspicious all along. could this be a plot thread that was placed in the miniseries playing out over several seasons? i hope so. unless it's another cure for cancer...
