Battlestar Galactica (2007 DVD movie)

A Battlestar Galactica movie will be released at the end of this year. This is what we know about the movie so far.

At the moment the upcoming television film is called Razor. The name will probably change later on.

According to Ronald D. Moore, "It's a storyline that delves into the Battlestar Pegasus quite a bit - back to the beginning, seeing the Cylon attack, what happens to Pegasus during the Cylon attack, and events that were talked about in backstories when those episodes were originally broadcast. It moves through time actually, sequentially. You get up to the point where Lee Adama is in command of Pegasus and then you start dealing with his first mission as commander of the Pegasus. Eventually things that are said and done in "Razor" set up certain things that happen in the fourth season."

Razor is expected to be two hours long and will actually contain some homosexuality for a change. Razor will be written by Michael Taylor and shooting started in May 2007. The shooting of Season 4 will start in June.

Sorry! Blame it on the cylon!

We are very sorry. But our webhost, the one that hosts our images and design elements for this Battlestar Galactica blog is currently down. I have no idea when the server will be back up again. But hopefully asap.

Under the meantime we must use this crappy blog template. Oh well, blame it on the cylon next to you!

Update: And now we are back up running again!

Update 2: Ahhh, can you feel it? No more hosting problems. We are now sponsored by ArcadeStunt. Go on, go play some free games.

Dylan is a Cylon

After his song "All Along The Watchtower" was used in the final episode, to summon the 4 of the last 5 Cylons, people began to question how to interpret Dylan and BSG Universe. Is there a Dylan in BSG Universe too Is there a direct connection to Earth? or is it just a ethereal source that inspired two song-writers in two universes?

I have my shot at answering all these questions. I think Dylan the 5th final Cylon, used as the model for the hybrid. It is well known that hybrids are the first step from the Centurions into humanoids, and it is highly likely that the Christian interpretation of God creating humans as a model of himself would be referenced here, and the first Cylon-Human would be modeled after the Cylon God.

Dylan himself is known to utter like the Hybrids, here is a mix of lyrics out of Blonde on Blonde:

"The ghost of electricity howls in the bones of her face. And punched my cigarette. Now your dancing child with his Chinese suit. In the empty lot where the ladies play blind man's bluff with the key chain. The one was Texas medicine. Upon the street where mothers weep. The cracked bells and washed-out horns. You can tell by the way she smiles. The silver saxophones say I should refuse you. The drunken politician leaps. Well, I return to the Queen of Spades.He spoke to me, I took his flute. He just smoked my eyelids. Now the rainman gave me two cures. But Mona Lisa musta' had the highway blues. The other was just railroad gin. Blow into my face with scorn."

Sounds just like a hybrid, doesn't it?

Battlestar Galactica vixen talks Command and Conquer 3

IGN.com has a nice interview with our favourite cylon Grace Park about her starring in the new C&C Tiberium Wars:

For fans of the supremely fine science fiction series (remake) 'Battlestar Galactica', actress Grace Park should be a familiar face. Her role as the mysterious Lt. Sharon 'Athena' Agathon obviously grabbed the right people's attention, as she has been cast in a leading role in Command and Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars. In her interview, she discusses her transition from TV to games, her character, and what it was like to work with Michael Ironside and Billy 'Lando Calrissian' Dee Williams.
