Fly me to the moon

[cyrano]

Finally took my first sip of the kool-aid and watched the Battlestar Galactica miniseries. It took me two hours, but I finally got excited sometime around the big meet up at Ragnar. I love the recognition that combat in space is not like air combat in WWII--it's been a while since I've seen that in science fiction. It's occasionally very obvious that ZOIC is doing the f/x, and that makes me smile. It's weird adjusting to the 'sound in space' thing again, but I'm trying hard to pretend it's part of the score. I really like a television show that presents characters with hard choices that have no 'right' answer. And I'm assuming that sometime during the series Starbuck becomes 'cool' because so far I'm not seeing it.

I have come to like Starbuck a lot more, but she didn't start out as my favorite either. Which is funny because everyone told me before I started watching the series how much I was going to have a crush on Starbuck. I think people think I find different things attractive than the things I actually find attractive, but whatever. I never got a hard on for her, but she's become a character I'm fond of, for certain. Hang in there, it only gets better.

I've got a lot of faith. And the first two hours weren't bad, it's just that they were setting up stuff and that's neccessary but not as exciting. (: I'm looking forward to the TV show.

yeah, I know all about the woes of setting up a season vs. keeping the first episode interesting. ;)

You're so cool. (: I'm glad you're back on LJ.
