For god sake, that guys voice annoys me. I think unless they release an instrumental version of All Along The Watchtower in the Season 4 soundtrack then theres no way too get it
Such a nerd... Alot of this music would go well in Diablo I think. For example, something similar to "Six Sex" would fit perfectly into a visit into Heaven
Yeah, I've actually had similar thouhts about it. Personally, I like the vocal track for the song. I think it's like Bear Mcreary's brother or something.
I've only watched enough episodes to know just barely what was going on. The finale was cool but sort of predictable. I thought the random ass nuke launch was hilarious. I just don't understand the whole Balthazar and cylon bitch ending. What was that all about?
With my Netflix account that I recently got, I finally to watch Battlestar Galactica last night. I can't believe this show came out in 2003 and I'm just now starting to watch it. But seriously, I loved this show. I think I'll enjoy it....I'm pretty sure I will.
What I liked a lot about it is I didn't feel they held back with anything. The writing is exceptional. I even just love hearing them talk about ship operations and the mechanics talking about the fighter craft. The individual fighters themselves were pretty interesting. The Cylone fighters looked a lot like the Kilrathi Dralthis. Though I wasn't quite as impressed with the human fighters, but they do look very functional. I just hope to see some other ships such as heavy fighters and bombers.
Overall story seems pretty interesting. I'm a little more interested right now though in the characters than the story. It seems to me like most of what's going to happen has happened in the premier. And now the rest of it is going to be more like a human behavior experiment to see how all these people in the flotilla get along. Who knows though. I'm really looking forward to continuing this series. I was expecting quite a lot from the show and was actually stil surprised at how good it actually was.
The music too was incredible. Especially during the battle scenes. Lots of minimal sounds but with lots of percussion. It was great. And the scenes with all the nukes...freaking amazing.

Merge my posts or something but I had to bump this thread back up. I just finished season 2 of Battlestar Galactica and I'm just amazed at how incredible this show is. For anyone who thinks this is merely scifi, they got it all wrong. This show is a drama about characters that feel incredibly real with real crises and emotions. The scifi element is just a backdrop and even though I personally enjoy the science fiction element to the show, sometimes I forget it's even there because it's offering so much more than that. Seriously, to anyone who hasn't seen this show yet I highly, highly, recommend it.
Has anyone finished this series yet? I've really been wanting to have a full blown nerd discussion about it. I have some mixed feelings about the last episode, but overall I thoroughly enjoyed the entire show.
I've been hearing so much about this show lately, I've got relatives who are absolutely obsessed with it. I take it from both of your posts, that it's a pretty amazing show.
Was just on last night... watched it briefly, the part that I watched was about negotiations, it looked like the humans were trying to form a peace treaty with aliens who had purple eyes.
Seemed interesting enough, may have to give it another shot.

"One in every 10 million people can potentially have a headache from this pill." God forbid she is the 0.000000001% of having a headache.
Yeah I've seen the final episode. I had mixed feelings about the final episode also...
[spoil]I don't think that big robot montage was necessary and I don't think the "Primordial Eve" part was necessary either
I liked Kara's disappearing act. Lots of people didn't however but I enjoy leaving some mystery
The 6's line at the end about complexity seemed forced... Didn't fit her character at all
The leaving of equipment and mingling with primitive life forms part just seemed.... whackadoo. What kind of guy would want to be the first to bang the cave-women
Cant think of anything else right now
[/spoil]
Whoops. I made this big fuss about wanting to discuss BSG and then I completely forgot about it the next day. Yes, as for the ending, I understand a lot of people hated it.
*SPOILER ALERT*
The first part of the episode where they just go apeshit in battle sequences to rescue Hera, well that was just purely awesome.
Toward the second half, it started getting so heavily into the mysticism and religion I just didn't know what to make of it anymore. I guess I didn't have a big problem with Kara's disappearing act because by then there was so much of that mysticism going on it was almost expected. I still wanted a thorough explanation of what she was though. I guess though at least the show wasn't as bad on loose ends as Lost is. So I sort of forgave them for the whole thing. I think it's obviously meant to be open for interpretation as to what she was.
As for everyone landing on what we now truly to be Earth, I was actually pleasantly surprised since I genuinely thought that fallout world was in fact Earth. However it was kind of weird how they're observing what are actually primitive aliens (humans) with supposedly a compatible DNA structure? Can someone help me out with that one?
Oh and I loved it when Tigh and Helen are on the planet talking to Tyrol and Tigh is all, "Don't feel bad about killing that bitch. If she did that to my wife I'd have done the same frakking thing." I love that line just because it's like they all didn't give a shit that they were Cylons anymore or wondered anymore at whatever their divine purposes may have been. They were just like, whatever.
I thought it was sad though when Anders became one of those brain dead hybrid things and just stayed there on the ship while it cruised into the sun. I also couldn't help but cry when Baltar said to Caprica 6 that he knew things about farming. Not sure why but I just lost it when he said that.
I liked the ending, it made sense to me. I was a kid when the original came out and liked it then, when I saw the new one I was glad they reinvented it. The space shots were fresh and to me a breakthrough in how spaceship flight was shown on screen. Easily the best TV science fiction series out there, it's rare in any TV venue when the story is compelling and the acting doesn't seem like acting, BSG achieved that level.
I didn't discover BSG until season three, my wife and I started watching it online around 5 PM, 1st episode from season one, and ended up sitting and watching all the episodes to the current one in season 3 at that time, we finished around 3 AM and didn't even know it was that late.
Yeah the sort of pseudo-documentary cinematography was great. Even when they were just in the CIC talking ship operations and the camera would quickly go to someone else and zoom in on them. It felt like you were a reporter getting exclusive footage of real events.
And I love the way the Vipers maneuver with those tons of thrusters all over the ship to make it capable of doing flips, rolls and all kinds of maneuvers. It's so cool watching them fly when the little thrusters are firing off in all these different directions. I wondered though why the Cylon Raiders didn't have them, but maybe they weren't built to be as maneuverable as the Vipers which game the Colonial Fleet a slight advantage in dogfights.
I always figured they weren't expecting on having any serious dog fights since they had compromised the 12 colonies defense systems and were able to shut them off. That was some epic death there.
I don't know, though. The Mk II's that they pull out of retirement to fight the Cylons were the same ones used decades ago. So the assumption seems to be that as they were developing the Raider they wanted something that could at least match the Mk II. I guess though whatever the Raider might have been lacking in agility, it could easily compensate with in overwhelming numbers.
Can you now get the soundtrack for season 4? You meant season 4, right? Cause I have the other three. Some of my favorite hiking music lately! Yeah, I'd love to talk BSG with you sometime, man.
Yeah. S4 just came out a week or so ago, I believe. Anyways, I know I've got it, so you should be able to find it too.
Some of the songs on it are pretty standard fare (by BSG standards, which means still awesome good) but some of them go above and beyond even what I've started to expect from Bear McCreary in terms of greatness.
Trend of tattooing the body is becoming so popular that people don’t make lots of research work. They just follow the picture which they like on the body of celebrities and on the bodies of their best friends. In the race of carving tattoos, often people don’t like to go for ancient tattoo designs. Replica watches, if you will see those tattoo designs which are coming from history then you will come to know that these designs are much more attractive than others. This is the reason, why tattoo latin designs have been overlooked. If you will look at the designs of Latin language, you will surprise to know that all these are capable to carve on the body.Mainly, tattoos latin designs are one of those designs which provide you the chance to put creativity. You can do lots of things with your selected tattoo design Rolex watches and you can amend it according to your own thinking. People, who go in depth of body artwork, really know about the importance of these types of old designs, which are unique in nature. Especially, Latin symbols are very interesting to explore. You can use them with any Latin picture and can see that how much innovation you can bring in your specific body part.

Basically my favourite series of all time.
Also - if you like the music (I love the music) make sure to get ahold of the S4 soundtrack. It's amazing!
