Hello. I'm quite new here and this is my first post, so forgive me if someone's already discussed this before, but about the so-called two-hour event (the BSG movie) this fall, what is everyone else's thoughts on that? That is aside from, "Yay!"

On another note, how many episodes will Season 4 be? I seem to understand that the movie is included with the order for S4. Does this mean that there will only be 20 episodes for S4, and not 22?

Now that I started watching the original episodes with gdg, I am really enjoying the character of the Imperious Leader. Does anyone know if RDM has ever discussed using the Imperious Leader in his re-imagining of BSG?

About two weeks ago, I posted a batch of icons from the miniseries, now I'm continuing with the regular series.

There are 52 icons from episodes 1x01 through 1x07, teasers:

Got some juicy speculation for S4 up on my journal, and I'd enjoy hearing from you bloggers about it.  Come take a look if that's your bag.

i was browsing through a dollar store today and i found a telephone line adapter with katee sackhoff's picture on it--i can't be 100% sure but i think it's her. i had to scan it for you guys to see: ( Collapse )

There's a community that had posted on it a particular artist's version of BG characters done Simpsons-style.  :)

***update***

just finished resurrection ship pt 1... i've got 15 min left for lunch, and we're busy at work... frack me! oy back to back to back shows with really good cliff hangers. i don't know how any of you were able to stand it just watching them week to week. i would have gone out of my mind lol.

i just finished reading this article from wired.com and thought it was really interesting (the comments are too). i remember RDM saying on several occasions (EJO said the same thing) that he doesn't see bsg as sci-fi. not REALLY (or solely) anyways.

but... but... it IS! it's not crappy sci-fi, that's for sure, and to be perfectly honest, considering what's being published/aired under the label of sci-fi it's no wonder he doesn't want his show to be thought of as sci-fi, but it still IS sci-fi. at least under the definition of the merriam-webster dictionary: science-fiction = fiction dealing principally with the impact of actual or imagined science on society or individuals or having a scientific factor as an essential orienting component.

i keep thinking that in the end, if you take away all the utterly crappy novels (as well some* of those insanely badly written star trek and star wars novels), all the abhoring movies that come out every year, and all the crappy television (well, basically half of the sci-fi channel, really), sci-fi is really a cool thing. i mean, think of isaac asimov, ray bradbury, frank herbert, robert a. heinlein, gerard klein, philip k. dick, stanislaw lem, arthur c. clarke, or the late (:() kurt vonnegut. would it really be so bad for RDM to be in league with these ppl? i think not.
