My Own Revelations

June 15, 2008

So watching last weeks episode of BSG I had some revelations of my own

1 – There will be no Lee Adama to rescue us from being held hostage by the Sci-Fi network. How long are they going to drag this out… Perhaps each episode could be 10 minutes long and they could just turn the last episodes into another season.

2 – Boxy never made it to Earth

3 – With all the advertising $$$ they must be rakin’ in on this series you would think the CGI would be better. The scene with the ships flying toward Earth was something lifted directly from Flash Gordon. Not the 1970s variety but the 1940s cliff hanger variety. I submit as evidence (start at time index 4:00).

4 – Taylor: Oh my God. I’m back. I’m home. All the time, it was… We finally really did it.
Taylor: You Maniacs! You blew it up! Ah, damn you! God damn you all to hell!

5 – Finally, I caught a fleeting glimpse of the Matrix programming for BSG. I have reproduced here what I can remember of the program:

Battlestar Galactica (”alt_Title=BSG”, “Genre=Overproduced21stCenturySciFi”) extends Human_Self_Destructive_Nature {{
        Machine_Cleansing();
        Human_Escape(”Rule=Military”,”Mission=Find Earth”);
        All_is_not_as_it_seems{
            They_walk_among_us();
        }
        Find_Fake_Sanctuary{
            Allowed_to_feel_comfortable();
            Bring_into_subjection();
            Escape();
        }
        Place_hope(”Savior_figures=Final 5, Christ Figure, higher power”,”Emotions=”Love”,”Greed”,”Loyalty”);
        Sleep(”duration=12 Months”);
        Join_forces(Human,Machine,”Situation=Mistrust”);
        Find_Earth(”Scenario=Blown_to_hell”);
        Sleep(”duration=unknown);
