I really think you should look at the OTHER Battlestar...

bears, beach, battlestar galactica

Fun Fact: This scene was a rip off of Battlestar Galactica.

Galactica 1980 that is, the TRUE second version. The episodes that put the BS back into BSG.

I'm not sure. Fargo is a great film, one of my favourites, but it's old now and it's hardly a great big cash-cow franchise, so it seems like more of a gamble than a safe-bet. I mean, I'll bet the mainstream audience don't remember the film at all, let alone fondly enough to make a series a sure-fire winner. I hope the writers have a good story up their sleeves.

"Pop culture on the skids", if you want to put it that way, is better exemplified by another reboot of Battlestar Galactica (happening) or a series based on C-tier characters from the Marvel Universe (Agents of Shield) or the new Spider-Man film series. Or a Nirvana/Kurt Cobain musical (also on the cards). Compared to all that crap, a Fargo series sounds brand-new.

Ship in the thumbnail and at :29 doesn't look anything like a Battlestar. No.

Interesting. I took the final statement to mean "the total amount of damage is unforeseeable"

Also, after watching a lot of Battlestar Galactica lately, this video is almost a non-stop laugh factory.

It always makes me furious when people in movies act like idiots. Same thing happened in Prometheus, which had a great premise and could have been really good, but was ruined by everyone being idiots and nothing making any god damn sense.

Here's she's equating Dren with a child, notably her own child, which she could never conceive. Dren is a human/scorpion/more animals mix that have an entirely different perception of the world than she does - if she was any form of smart, she would have recognized this and not given her a freaking cat. Would you give a gorilla a cat as a pet? No you wouldn't!

The idea for this film was great and I thought it was actually quite well done. The scientists are naive and bold, but flawed people and Dren is a weird foster child to them.I thought the last part was a bit much, but it didn't entirely ruin the movie for me.

For a great example of a movie that shows great promise and really is very good, but then completely cocks up the very ending, see White Noise http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_Noise_(film) or Battlestar Galactica http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battlestar_Galactica_(2004_TV_series) both of which just shit the bed with the endings.

Ha! <show x> reinterpreted as <genre y>!!?

That's clearly never been done before.
Ever.



edit: still upvoting because it was quite well executed!

>> ^VoodooV:

holy shit. the show found a home or are they just finally airing what they DID make?


They are airing the pilot they already produced as a webseries, split into several short webisodes, over the course of several months. Afterwards, the complete pilot is supposed to be aired as a special on Syfy. As far as I know, the show was already canceled.

The viper launching from the battlestar.
