And what was the point of seeing Jamie Bamber in a fat suit. Seems like a lot of trouble to go through just to show that the character has gone "soft". Anyway, this is probably the first sci-fi program that has me in tears every second episode. I just have to hear the first notes of the theme music and I feel waves a sadness and melancholy.. :'(

I agree that BSG is a great series, Gil. Terrific characters and writing for grownups. I don't pay close attention to all the details of the story, so I find myself in the dark sometimes about what's what between the cylons and humans and all the history, but it's still a great ride. 8)

Does anyone remember TRON? ;D I remember the movie being heavily promoted at video rooms and being disappointed with the film.
Well thirty years latter (release date 2011), they are making TRON 2.0. If it's a sequal, it's a long time coming. I don't even remember the first one all that well. Jeff Bridges who was in the first TRON, will also be in this movie.

I heard about that. I saw TRON back in the day and I was disappointed as well but I don't remember much about it. Not enough to be excited about the remake (or whatever it is) ;) Hopefully, it will be a case similar to BATTLESTAR GALACTICA where the "remake" (re-imagining?) turned out to be far superior to the original.

My BSG update: I finished off Season 3 (OMG!) and watched the RAZOR, the TV movie before Season 4.0 which I'll start watching tonight. Rasor was not what I expected but it was very interesting. It went back in time and focused on what happened to the Pegasus before it came in contact with Galactica. It was a bit of a disappointment after the delicious cliffhanger (OMG!) that ended Season 3. (Does EVERYONE end up being a Cylon?!) :laugh:

According to one of the extras on the DVD, the series could have ended there if the writer's strike had gone on longer (or something). That would have been quite a cynical way to end things, lol!
Is anyone planning to watch the real Series Finale this Friday?
