For all you science fiction fans...

[Kommisar]

Possibly the coolest website ever:

Jeff Russell's STARSHIP DIMENSIONS

[Prybutok]

So much more sophisticated than it used to be. I like it.

[Doomsayer]

it's got a LOT of obscure references on it's lsit but misses a few key scifi ships... like all the new battlestar gallactica ships.

[Kanchi]

there was a ship from macross in there.. thats kinda cool

[Prybutok]

I am guessing they only add ships they have or can extrapolate size data on. Are there any numbers floating about the net on the size of the new BSG ships?

And speaking of BSG, only a few more days until we finally get to start saying "WTF" to what is going on in the episodes as opposed to saying "WTF" based solely on commercials and previews. This season will either soldify this show as one of the best ever made or destroy it entirely.

Here'sd to hoping their dice roll all 20's.

The occupation bit is only supposed to be like a 6 episode arc so even if that part bothers you (it doesnt me) it wont last forever. I have faith in the writers of the show.

It's not that it bothers me, it just seems a completely out of the blue change to the dynamic of the series and I was caught very off guard.

My faith in the writers is great so I don't see it sucking. When I said "destroy it entirely" I meant the ratings and a possible cancellation.

I wasn't aware that it was only a 6 episode thing. That makes me wonder what is going to happen after that. All the previews contain are bits about the occupation.

Only one more day till BSG!

If we get enough people online tomorrow to raid, it's going to kill me to have to not watch it when it's on. I know we have Tivo and all, but I am just so excited that I want to watch it the minute it airs!

i never watch them new, i wait for the dvds

I almost have the torrent downloaded for both the first two episodes. Did they air both episodes tonight? Or is part two of the season opener just out there?

The first episode of this season was a two hour (but not two parter). It may have been split up on torrents so each part fits on a single CDR.

Overall good episode, although they are really brutalizing the characters. The fat suit on Apollo was almost as funny as watching Adri's consternation that he might actually be fat and her fantasy man ruined.

Brutalizing these characters has been the core of almost every episode so far. The entire first season I caught myself hoping beyond hope that humanity would finally get cut a break.

So far I am not too keen on the Starbuck plotline but everything else had me riveted. Of course, I'm still convinced that all of humanity has been dead a long time; that everyone on the show are cylons, everyone. It's some bizarre play or experiment; the cylons trying to force evolution, trying to rejoin god.
