Talk abouty a shitty trailer !
Somebody thought editing meant splicing random .5 sec shots together one after the other.
Too bad.


You're right, but I still want to see the show based solely on the previous Battlestar Galactica series.

I actually watched, and sort of enjoyed Caprica- must have been the only one though. I feel that show was cancelled before it got its feet under it. Hopefully this new show will be the one that science fiction fans have been waiting for.

Oh I'm with you there, I'm such a big fan of BSG that this won't stop me from watching it :-)>> ^therealblankman:

News story says Blood and Chrome trailer is released!

Go to watch it and they say NBC pulled it! They say it's universally praised and I can't watch it!

Then I come to videosift.

Man, I love this website.

My prediction:

This will be unoriginal, tired shit.

It just looks like it's going to tread the same path as many before it.

Also, if you can't be bothered to bring out a trailer with music different to a trailer that JUST CAME OUT mere months ago, then sorry, but that smacks of laziness all around.

Caprica was OK, it could have been better. Syfy is just disappointing with how it handles it sci-fi stuff anymore. SGU got really good and they canned it anyway.

This show kind of sounds like they are trying to cash in on Spartacus: Blood and Sand.

I think you are right, unless they can find some other, different story they can tell about the cylons that makes them scary again, and not whiney, vagina robots. My vote would be a splinter of cylons that manage to get off the planet before getting boxed. These cylons are crazy fanatic about organic life in general, they want to see the eradication of every non-cylon based lifeform, a world of chrome and steal! These relentless, inorganic pursuers stop at nothing to not only destroy human existence, but all existence as we know it. It is the only interesting story you can tell after trying to wipe out humanity, trying to wipe out all existence. Start it off with, instead of the decimation of our home world like the new ones, start with its eradication...deathstar. That could actually be your main plot device for the first couple of seasons, trying to kill the planet smasher.

Anyway, it think way to much about battlestar and how I would make the newish ones better (after season 3, I pretend they don't exist), as well as what I would do for a spinnoff in the same universe. I ended up with a show that would feel more like Stargate Atlantis (humans going around trying to stop cylons from blowing up alien worlds) than what we know as battlestar today, but I think you could make it interesting.

You're not alone in liking Caprica, I thought it was pretty darn good

I also think this one looks awesome too, despite the crappy epileptic trailer.

@Porksandwich I was really disappointed when they cancelled SGU, I was really in to it.

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag.(show it anyway)

Looks pretty cool, but I find I just don't care much about this universe very much anymore. Not after the deus ex machina letdown. The quest for Earth really kept me hooked. I don't feel anything like that here.
