Re:We will see what an oracle isn’t and what I believe it is…
I really tried to podcast listen and not nod off and finally the MRS. gets a little MORE interesting. Good for you! That’s using what makes you interesting.
Um, the biggest fear I have is the “breaking of 9 eps.” Already?
Yeesh boys and girls…. we’re doing the same thing as before with the rush rush. I understand, you never know if they’ll be a May strike of the WGA in May but golly, Ms. Molly; slow the FRAK down!
Remember what happened; you had to redo the Sagittarions over multiple eps. That could happen again, and floaty little ideas get ya floaty little ratings.
I know you are chomping at the bit to get moving but you are doing no one any favors by rushing through it.
I don’t mind if you keep the whole BSG family together like you want to; in which no one dies but every story should be good.
Look at Peggy, that was a woven story, lots of arcs together and it worked and worked well. The who shot Adama is second; and the NC is third. The NC would have been good if they had stayed there a few eps and not tried to get us to feel for what they had gone through with webisodes. That could have rocked if they would have stayed a little longer.
One of the biggest letdowns in Season 3 is the rush to return to…. I’d say mediocre ship stories. Standalones that should have been left alone as ideas.
And man, all the interesting ideas are rushed through and passed over for character shots. Bad move.
Interesting….
The Resistence Movement and Jake
The captivity of Starbuck by Leoben.
Even the Oracle added a little change to the blah.
The Hybrid and the Baseship.
Lampkin
On and on…..
Now the 4 Cylon A story will take over and I’m torn about it. I’m not really going “Wow!,” that’s exciting!” The only interesting soft shoe dance of ‘how in the frack is he a Cylon’ is Tigh. the rest don’t interest me in particular.
Like Tory rigging an election for Roslin, must have had a ‘clap on/clap off ‘Cylon moment to get to malibu I mean the malleable Baltar.
Well, we can always do that line “sometimes we just don’t know WHY we do what we do.” “Sometimes we feel like a nut, sometimes we don’t;” is a better line for these people than “Butterfingers”
I guess I just would have done it different; sure, come up with crazy, off the fly, ideas: I’d be the one that would weave it into something and not some ‘whoa, dude… like a sixties flashback moment.; and um dude……the sky is paisley.” 🙄
