Battlestar Galactica
« on: December 07, 2007, 12:18:07 AM »
A guy at work recommended it to me, I watched the mini series which I felt was a little slow but thats mostly the result of watching it in one sitting I think. The series are GREAT. I'm 1/2 way through series 3 and I am well and truly hooked.

Started out good.  Slowed way down.  Picking up again.  Two hour movie sucked.  Season four ends it.

I watched most of the first season.  It was alright, but didn't hook me at all.  Edward James Olmos is pretty cool though

I downloaded Firefly, but haven't had a chance to watch it.

Yeah Ive seen all of the Firefly and Serenity, I actually grabbed it from work last night. Battlestar reminds me of it a lot mostly due to the same style CGI cinematography (same company did both)

I hate Firefly pretty much based on the people that like it. 

I've never seen an episode

Nope.  I couldn't stand Buffy or Angel or those other shows so I don't think I'm gonna like his show about cowboys in space

in fact, I think this weekend will consist of nothing but
Firefly + Serenity + several pizzas.

Friggin' awesome show!!  Serenity was 11/10 too.  Only B5 beats it!

Buffy was terrible.  I couldn't get into the POS.  Never tried Angel.

Buffy sounds ridiculously lame to me, but it's supposed to be literature caliber.

Hell I hate most fads but I have to honestly say Serenity is one of my favorite movies of all time.  I had never seen a Firefly episode before seeing the movie, although I've seen a couple since and while not as good as the movie they are better than 95% of the crap out there.  I know its the same guy that did Buffy and whatnot but its nothing like that drivvel.

That's only coming from nerds who say you just "don't get" their latest anime about a schoolboy who turns into a girl to save glorious Nippon from a tentacle monster from the 8th dimension

What made Serenity work for you?
