I'm so confused brosephs.
(And yeah, the ending devoured) Lots of plot holes? BLAME GOD.
OH WAIT THAT WASN'T BALTAR SILLY ME. THAT WAS ANGEL BALTAR AND ANGEL SIX. GOD IT MAKES SENSE NOW.
I had this fear as season three wound down and season four began that the show's increasing embrace of ideology and spirituality coupled with tons of plot holes would lead to a huge fuckshow deus ex machina ending. Yup, it did. I felt the same way about Geass, and it was hugely problematic in that show too, in very much the same way. However, the charm of Geass was that it wrapped up all the spirituality crap way before the ending and gave you enough time to realize that, in that show, it wasn't the "magical crap" driving the narrative but the actions and motivations of the protagonists. Both shows pull "reset" endings, but Battlestar's is particularly frustrating as it basically can be summarized as "divine forces got us here." (Whereas Lelouch outsmarts every character and the audience in a scheme to pull off said reset)
Battlestar's characters have been going through "pre-destined" motions for a whole season and the ending's no exception, barf.
Oh, so like Jimi Hendrix is Hera's great-great...-great grandson?
The whole notion that the show predates our notion of earth rather than being in the future at all was absolutely not shocking, and has been something hinted at, since what, season 2?
Kill yourselves.

Fuck the only reason I've kept this window open is to listen to that Only remix on repeat.
Is that song part of an album?
Lelouch x CC, gogo Season 3
gg s3 = s&w s2 bro

Laddikaru-san.
The "only" remix is pretty sick, but I'm really liking that Adele remix a lot too.
@theo - Def one of my fav of all the high contrast mixes.
I was hunting for a high contrast remix of bittersweet symph, but I've been told that no such track ever existed. (But I think it does >.<)
@kzn - <3 The third verse is amazing.
On that Streets track, does anyone else think the syncopation @ 1:57-2:01 is horrible? It doesn't feel right at all.
okay i can't type on this stupid phone
you're the best lmao ;)
the screwed and chopped twista is amusing but too long
best walkmen track by far
the rapture is sick
you have the most random diverse interests
veronica mars is fuckin hot bro
@kzn - I like little weapon better for sure, but I dislike the intro >.<
yeah but the first verse is awesome
bsg end was horrible
Einstein believed in god
Moar wow plx.
Rad... I always love your posts... but nothing makes me happier than you pissed off as hell.
Don't you get it? It's a literal DEUS EX MACHINA!
Greengoo? LOL
there's a war
if the guns are just too tall for you, we'll find you something small to use
\o/
I just started watching BSG based on one of your posts about my favorite TV shows. Season 1-4 marathon incoming.
@craptor, You won't be disappointed. I thought I'd hate BSG, but seasons one and two are awesome.
@ dahis, jack whatever you like. I'm happy that people find use in my toon nerdotry.
I had planned on releasing a dueling vid from TR, but honestly I don't see that happening anymore as between work, gf, and chicago growing warm enough to be social, I have little interest in WoWing.
It's not over for me and WoW. I just need space. I THINK WE SHOULD SEE OTHER PEOPLE FOR A WHILE.
marmalade would be disappointed in you, raddy
@alexial
Yessir :) Still alive and kickin.
i would've been blown away if the ending hadn't been a deus ex machina. near the end of the series it became apparent a single episode couldn't explain all the stupid crap they wrote.
funniest part was the asteroid that knocked the dead pilot's hand onto a single button that launched a zillion nukes into the colony. actually scratch that: funniest part was how it turned out THERE WAS NO FUCKING REASON AT ALL TO SAVE THE CHILD.
So far my favorite episode is the one where they go back and forth between imaginary baltar, and imaginary six. It was just awesome how both the chars roles were switched.
