Frankly, BSG's ending didn't make the grade - and in fact, had serious continuity issues from things like fleet ships named for WWI battles; if they had included even a time travel element, it might have workable, but they chose not even to do that.... ]]> feeds@kickapps.com (Basara 549) http://disciplesofzor.com/sreply/21557 Tue, 14 Jul 2009 16:26:24 PST http://disciplesofzor.com/reply/21556/t/BSG-and-Robotech-Spoilers.html#reply-21556
By the end of Season 4, I was wondering why HGUSA wasn't screaming about idea theft: everything they could cover in a Macross movie had, by that point, already been covered by BSG. All BSG was lacking were transforming robots and, for all intents and purposes, it would've been Macross.

CavScout - the Galactica performs a rough equivalent to the Deadalus Manoeuvre to get infantry teams aboard a hostile ship.
Eh, it was more of a "let's ram the ship and then get stuck" maneuver. Followed by "hey, everyone coincidentally ends up in just the right spot for the 'big reveal' of the Opera House." Tied together with, "uh, guys? Where are all the Cylons in this supposed colony?"

The final battle was seriously bad, IMO. But, then by that point, the Macrossyness of BSG had gone overboard, so I might be biased. Lame battle was more than made up for in the final 30+ minutes though, even with the depressing conclusions that must be drawn about the Colonials.

I'd rather see them emulate the earlier BSG stuff. The rescue on New Caprica was gorgeous.

CavScout - It is well worth watching the last episode for the battle sense. I think it is on Hulu. ]]> feeds@kickapps.com (Gargoyle) http://disciplesofzor.com/sreply/21512 Sun, 17 May 2009 22:18:26 PST http://disciplesofzor.com/reply/21509/t/BSG-and-Robotech-Spoilers.html#reply-21509 feeds@kickapps.com (CavScout) http://disciplesofzor.com/sreply/21509 Fri, 15 May 2009 16:27:55 PST http://disciplesofzor.com/reply/21507/t/BSG-and-Robotech-Spoilers.html#reply-21507 feeds@kickapps.com (Jefffar) http://disciplesofzor.com/sreply/21507 Thu, 14 May 2009 16:12:54 PST http://disciplesofzor.com/reply/21499/t/BSG-and-Robotech-Spoilers.html#reply-21499 feeds@kickapps.com (Gargoyle) http://disciplesofzor.com/sreply/21499 Wed, 13 May 2009 18:08:45 PST http://disciplesofzor.com/topic/2848/t/BSG-and-Robotech-Spoilers.html ]]> feeds@kickapps.com (Jefffar) http://disciplesofzor.com/topic/2848 Fri, 20 Mar 2009 18:15:42 PST
