That whole bomb drop moment just seems really tacked on. You never watched Enterprise to the end to see where that story-arc was headed, why does Battlestar get immunity? Of course, it's an infinitely better show, but come on....this finale was really lame.August Meredithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12878556845528101634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6446606.post-83529591727784468482007-03-29T21:00:00.000-07:002007-03-29T21:00:00.000-07:00I disagree with you and the You Are Dumb guy. Whil...I disagree with you and the You Are Dumb guy. While some of it was far-fetched, I think the finale was typical Galactica. Sure, it didn't have the power of last season's send-off, but until we know where the Final Five storyline is going, we can't make judgments. <BR/><BR/> Point by point:<BR/><BR/> Baltar: He can't die, obviously. He's the big villain of the show. I sort expected him to defect again to the Clyon side, but that was a weird few months and I'm not sure I want to go back there. As for that girl from the previous episode, i recognized her but remember she was asking Baltar to bless her child, adding a religious level to Baltar-worship. It goes beyond that prison manifesto, maybe more in line with the whole "rich/poor colonies" from a few episodes back. <BR/><BR/> As for the possible Final Five, I'm not sure they're Cylons. Hell, maybe Ron Moore isn't even sure yet. It would be a stretch and some credibility would be lost, of course. But whatever happens, if pulled off well, i will support it. <BR/><BR/> I wonder, though, what all that religious stuff with the Chief was about when he found the Eye of Jupiter, if, in fact, he's a Cylon (which I hope he's not). <BR/><BR/> It's probably a Ferengi mind-fuck. (I like that, btw.) That makes the most sense. <BR/><BR/> As for Starbuck, shit, I don't know, maybe she's the only one who's really a Cylon.<BR/><BR/> Sucks we have to wait, but I wonder what this special "Battlestar Event" at the end of 2007 will be about.Eladhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14848898406939379934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6446606.post-2272742171899306052007-03-29T15:31:00.000-07:002007-03-29T15:31:00.000-07:00Read this: http://www.youaredumb.net/archive/2007...Read this: http://www.youaredumb.net/archive/2007/3/28August Meredithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12878556845528101634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6446606.post-62241539601866667332007-03-28T16:00:00.000-07:002007-03-28T16:00:00.000-07:00I thought most of the finale was bullshit. It jus...I thought most of the finale was bullshit. It just doesn't make any god damn sense. Ironically, Lost is getting better as Battlestar is getting rather thin. =(<BR/><BR/>I knew Baltar would go free, and it's fucked up because none of the Battlestar crew ever linked the mysterious nuclear explosion in orbit around New Caprica to him. Even though they had a total of 4 nukes. And gave Baltar 1. Whatever. There are so many other obvious traitor issues that they never bothered to follow up with Baltar. The failed cylon test, his evidence tampering attempt, his murder of the LT, to name a few.<BR/><BR/>He's an interesting character (though getting more and more whiney) so I guess they keep cutting him slack. The "religious" people that nabbed him are followers of his prison written manifesto. The red robes threw me for a bit, but then I remembered the girl was the one in the previous episode that was all about his book.<BR/><BR/>I don't buy the fact that the Chief, Colonel, Anders, and Tori are Cylons. I think they're just jerking us around. If it's true, then it also means the last remaining Cylon is more than likely Kara. If it's true, then there are TWO half-cylon babies. And come on, it's completely unlikely that Anders should've even ended up on Galactica -- but for him to be a Cylon as well? Not buying it. I'd have it just be some sort of brain-wave mind fuck similar to what the Ferengi did to Captain Picard. =)<BR/><BR/>Tori could be a cylon because she just appeared one day. Either way, don't care much about her.<BR/><BR/>Colonel Tigh? Eh, I don't quite buy that either. He has too much backstory and history with Adama. That alone would make him a good candidate to be a sleeper, but all that bullshit he did/went through on new Caprica? If he is a Cylon, then I'd expect him to be a rebel one. Which would be kinda cool... <BR/><BR/>Romo Lapkin should turn out to be the master cylon. He's very cool and slick. And he just "showed up" one day. Kind of like how Dean Stockton showed up.<BR/><BR/>Kara is either a Cylon or some fucking weirded out superhuman. I'm reminded of Dune with the Space Guild navigators. I knew she wouldn't die (that's like killing off Tony Soprano). But, yeah, the "Hi, I'm back and I've been to Earth," was pretty lame.<BR/><BR/>I guess the thing I fell strongest is that they drop all of these loose threads at the end. The show is usually good about resolving most issues, but now we have to wait until 2008 to find out more. Fuck that.August Meredithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12878556845528101634noreply@blogger.com
