Ice Balls

OMG!  Nickel-sized hail is falling from the sky.  It’s hitting the window hard enough for concern.  The temperature is about 70 degrees.  Shakes head.  Strange weather.

Fast and Furious

Everyone deserves a break.  Right.  Who cares if the plot is mediocre, the writing is just okay, and there is not a single scene requiring serious thinking.  Man, who needs it after BSG.  :-)

Vin Diesel and Paul Walker make their comeback with Fast and Furious and dude, they are still very much the eye candy.  Bring on the fast and gorgeous cars and the beautiful people.  That’s reason enough to check it out on Friday, 04/03/09.

Trailer is under the cut.

BSG: Daybreak PT 2 Screencaps

Archived 945 Daybreak PT 2 screencaps here at the Gallery.

BSG,This is it! So What are you going to do?

I read the BSG finale will be two hours and ELEVEN minutes long.  Yay!

This is it, though.  Four glorious years of Battlestar Galactica.  The best damn frakking show on TV.  And just what am I suppose to do after Friday, 03/20/2009.  I think we are going to be talking about BSG for a long time.  Going over all the details, discussing what we have missed, mourn in our drink on just how bad the speculations.  Some fans are going to whump it up because hey they are so damn smart.  Hell, BSG trumped me badly.  The only thing I got right was a no-brainer like there are 13 colonies and not just 12.  LOL.   Oh and yeah, I knew there were 13 cylons.  Par for the course if there are 13 colonies, you know.  A cylon for each planet.

So after Friday, my plans are catching up with Heroes.  God, I hope I won’t get bored.  Check out the new series Kings.  Now that appear way, way interesting and just about 180 degrees of turns different than BSG.

And wait for BSG spin-offs.  Won’t be the same but I trust RDM and crew and I am so looking forward to them.

You wanna post your feelings, go ahead.  Have a beer and no frakking tears. :-)

Sam Anders Quotes

anders

Flashback to the Interviewers on Caprica:

    1. Perfect throw
    2. Making a perfect catch
    3. the perfect stepping block
    4. Perfection is what it’s about, about those moments when you, when you can feel the perfection of creation.
    5. the beauty of physics
    6. the wonder of mathematics
    7. know the elation of action and reaction and that’s the kind of perfection I want to be connected to.

Presently on Galactica as the hybrid:

    1. spins and turns, angles and curves, the shape of dreams half remembered
    2. slipped the surly bonds of earth
    3. touch the face of perfection, a perfect face, a perfect place
    4. find the perfect world for Kara Thrace; End of Line.

Sam Anders obviously enthralled with the concept of perfection.  He enjoys creating situations where he can perfect his concepts of how events should be shaped.  John Cavil knows Anders is one of the F5, therefore, Cavil had no intention of killing Anders the freedom fighter while fighting on Caprica.  He wanted to teach them a lesson on humanity.  But did Cavil also know Anders wouldn’t ever be successful as a freedom fighter, be the one to destroy the cylon forces on the Caprica.  Success is subjective.  Defined by purpose and goal.  Anders more than likely caught up on perfecting strategy to fight but to never succeed in winning  the war even if he had a full force and equipment to do so.  Sounds harsh true.  I think Anders does not have the foresight to see the broad spectrum of a situation.

On Galactica, I think he is mixing up what he was to what he is – a hybrid.  He remembers his love for Kara – a perfect face.  This however is not quite enough evidence to say Kara is special or that he wants a perfect world for Kara because she is special.  She is really but only as in a man who’s in love with his wife and he wants her happy.

Will they hook up Anders during the rescue of Hera?  Now there is the question because hybrid jumps ship at will.  Who knows, Kara in danger could mean saving what is left of the Galactica and it’s people.

BSG: Daybreak – Part 1 Review & Picspam

I loved how we got the chance to see how they were before the fall of Caprica, before the end of the series.  BSG does this so well, mixing in flashbacks and the present time scenes without dragging down the storyline.
