Raiders of the Lost Blog

So I watched part one last night of Battlestar Galactica. I was really afraid it would be horrendously awful, so I had absolutely no expectations going in to it. I think because of that I actually enjoyed some of it.

The first hour draaaaaags. I have no idea why they had that first space station scene at all, and why the cylons would blow up perfectly good cylon warriors for show like that, especially since only one guy would ever see it before he died. Blowing up the planet picked things up nicely though. They seemed to use the same effects as in the show Firefly with a shaky hand held effect for the space battles.

I don’t like the new Starbuck, she’s not the same sort of swaggering type as Dirk Benedict. She’s more likely to start punching first, Dirk’s Starbuck was a fighter last.

Still, not as bad as I thought, I’ll tune in tonight for part two.
