John Crichton 4 Posted April 1, 2009 Author Share Posted April 1, 2009 Good, that means that 4.5 should be out by that date at the latest. That's not too long.Funny article, I liked the Firely bit they got in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taikomochi 1,136 Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 I love how you can tell the music heard is not the music performed. The piece is the same, but you can hear the chain noise he first employed in SCC which he always adds in digitally, not through orchestra. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,374 Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 So the Caprica pilot has leaked to the internet. I haven't seen the whole thing yet, but I watched the beginning. Literally in the first minute there are completely naked girls making out with each other in some kind of rave bar on Caprica, "58 years before the fall". Interesting.I skipped through the rest and saw mostly people talking, wearing somewhat funny clothes, and some robots walking around. Looks like a weird sci fi alternate earth type show... VERY different than BSG. No ships flying through space at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Crichton 4 Posted April 18, 2009 Author Share Posted April 18, 2009 I've seen nothing so far to make me the slightest bit interested in watching Caprica.

Greg1138 3 Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 It's certainly very different, and the naked ladies are not on Caprica.

Danielle 0 Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 It's certainly very different, and the naked ladies are not on Caprica. Some wild and wonderful ideas, and some shocking moments make me want to see what's coming next....bring it on, please!!!I agree 100%. It was somewhat slow in parts but always interesting, and extremely thought-provoking - certainly moreso than the BSG finale. Both Eric Stoltz and Esai Morales put in fantastic efforts, with the latter especially pulling off a great performance as Bill Adama's father. His performance was very reminiscent of Edward James Olmos in many scenes, but in an almost subliminal way, not in the overt Razor-flashbacks way. Loved the use of the Adama family theme right at the end. It also managed to answer one of BSG's loose ends: Where the centurions' belief in God originated.I'll be very interested in seeing where this story goes, but unfortunately, with it being a character study without any flashy space battles, it'll probably go the way of so many promising series and get axed before it can really spread its wings.

Taikomochi 1,136 Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 Thought it was pretty good.I loved the music when William B. Davis's character was killed. I was still disappointed since I had hoped from more from his character considering how much I loved Davis on The X Files as Cigarette Smoking Man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fommes 153 Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 Bear made a response to one of the comments regarding his Flashback theme resembling Alien.crock… “I am curious about your use of Goldsmith’s Alien.”It was an inspiration, but I’d hardly say that I “used” it. Actually, Goldsmith and I both derived that specific harmonic language from the French Impressionistic composers Debussy and Ravel. Jerry was the first composer to apply those tonalities to dark, gritty science fiction and, in that, I certainly followed his footsteps, although to a much different effect.I'm not easily disturbed by such borrowings, but this one actually bothered me immensely during the finale. Moreover, the fact that they both derive it from earlier classical composers is irrelevant. He just shouldn't have devised a theme that is so like one of the most familiar themes of sf film music.

BLUMENKOHL 1,068 Posted May 3, 2009 Share Posted May 3, 2009 Caprica was a pleasant surprise. I was not looking forward to it, and I had the lowest expectations, and I came out extremely surprised, excited, and satisfied. I'm ready for more! This is a worthy BSG spinoff!I recommend it to all.

Erik Woods 555 Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 Hi guys - I haven't read through this thread because I'm avoiding spoilers so I apologize if this has already been brought up.My wife and I have finished season 3 and are ready to move on season 4. Now, we noticed that disc 1 of the season 4 set is a movie called Razor which tells the story of Battlestar Pegasus before it finds Galactica. Now, without giving too much away is it necessary for us to view Razor before we get into episode 1 of season 4 or can we skip it?Thanks in advance for your help. And if you want to email me instead of cluttering up this thread then please feel free to.-Erik- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
