|
 |
I was wondering where the BSG discussion went too. i searched and noticed theres no season 4 discussion thread.
4 new cylons, 1 still hidden, Six is rebelling against the cylons, the president is dying, who's the 5th? Starbuck? Baltar?
The final season is delivering so far.
What's everybody elses thoughts?

I hate the whole premise of religious human Cylons, at least when they're made with such fallibility. So I try to ignore that ridiculous notion and focus on the compelling characters and realistic space battles.

while i m an atheist, i dont mind exploring the theme of religion / faith in a series like and i think it adds some special quality to galactica. And it might help keep the series interesting and unique in its fourth season. Speaking of which, the two eps were really great :love:  |

Same here. I loved Ep1, but when the kid was suddenly saved, I " "ed.
Edit:  There's ep2 already? Have to get it asap. |

 Spoiler: |
i think it fit. We still dont know if it was just coincidence, Baltar bing stabbed and slowly believing int that one-true-god thing his subconcious tries to sell him for ages now. I for one think it s there to get the discussions on the final cylon model going, with Balthar being the prime suspect now. For creating suspense they did everything right imho. As they did in all the other episodes / seasons. |
|
Yeah that didn't bother me, after all religion is partly based on interpreting coincidence as an act of God.

in my opinion, coincidence is the whole reason for superstition and religion. The human brain is hardwired to make sense out of everything / find sense in everything. So the erratic and unexplainable is often the reason, why meta-rules for something are established that are in itself false but arent disprovable either. The individual then can go on with his life gathering food for the tribe and stuff
There is actually some convincing evidence from rat-experiments with erratic gratification-plans that show strange superstitious behaviour of the rats (google isnt giving me shit at the moment and i cant find the paper i m referring to, sorry, will try to prove my claims later) |

Sure yeah, but often media likes to invent coincidence to prove god exists. I truly hope this isn't the case, but I can't tell for sure.

absolutely love new BSG , all of it. I don't mind the whole spiritual part of it , it makes a lot of sense (your a robot who becomes ... alive ... you'd believe in a god too lol.)
Btw president bitch cant die of cancer anymore, she is healed (i really want her dead ,too. She really is an annoying , no-good ... anyway).
Oh and be aware, this IS the final season (not cancelled or anything, it will have a proper final .. for once (unlike showslike sg-1, farscape , firefly etc etc :/ )

Why with spoiler tags? Are people expecting anything but spoilers when coming to a thread about a season that just started?
Didn't they address the cancer in S3, where she was sick again? And why can't she use the cylon blood again?

It is said that the second half of S4 will deal with the consequences of them arriving to earth, so you will see earth probably toward the end of the first half (could be a nice cliff hanger).

i have been burned more than once for having missed an ep and read in threads about things i didnt want to hear, so i use spoiler-tags whenever an episode has just been released.
and for the cylon-blood: It came from the hybrid kid, that is now with the cylons, isnt it? |

Really, I didn't think they had the budget for that. I hope it isn't just them sending down small teams of people to 'infiltrate' the earthling population.
A full scale confrontation between them and earth would be awesome, even if no fighting is involved.

Why? Because there are no space battles? I think this season is amazing, much better than 3.

I'm speechless.
It's amazing how good music can make an incredible episode. I couldn't stay still for first 5 minutes, and i replayed last minute about 20 times.

Nope, she's on Galactica along with Boomer.

Yeah, why isn't the president just using the blood again for another 1-2 years? Just a little blood, no harm will be done to the kid. But you know, with every episode that passes, I hate Roslin more and more, which is obviously intentional to prepare us for her death. Another nod to the writers how they managed to portray her in two different lights, while she hasn't changed at all. It's all about perspective, and they are doing it amazingly.
