Three More Opinions
1) The season finale of Battlestar Galactica was better than the series finale of Rome, which suffered from trying to fit the climax of a major storyline (the Wars of the Second Triumvirate) and all the assorted character bits into a single hour.
2) "All Along the Watchtower" was an assinine choice for the season finale of BSG. Admittedly, Bear McCreary already broke down the illusion that BSG was about an un-Earthly civilization when he introduced the Adama Family Squabble Ullieann Pipe Chorus but Dylan? That was lame, Ron.
3) I was reading Heather Havrilesky's review of "Rome" on Salon - can someone please tell me when ignorance became some sort of virtue? "Who knew"? Fuck off - the creation of the Roman Empire is hardly some obscure footnote in world history and, frankly Heather, you don't sound cute when you write you were surprised by what happened to the historical characters used in the series, you sound like a cave-dwelling moron. I didn't realize being a TV critic necessitated never actually having read a book. Fool.
On an unrelated topic, why are you staying up until 1:30 reading bad BSG fic? Nine months, baby, you should pace yourself. Seriously bad fanfic. Seriously, seriously bad - we're talking Mary Sue shit, here. And you realize you're talking to yourself in your LJ, right? And it's out-of-character bad Mary Sue fic. Seriously, this is like, the black tar heroin of fic - the first hit might not be so bad but then you're rolling around on the floor doing a Hendrix and it's adios muchachos... I need Aliens on DVD. Not that that has anything to do with anything but Colonial Marines. Get it? Damn... now I want Aliens/BSG x-over fic. Aliens vs. Cylons... damn, talk about some disappointed facehuggers... hmmm. Not as good, of course, as Cybermen versus Daleks. Nothing is as good as Cybermen versus Daleks. Daleks pwn!....
