B.S.G. comparison (pt.2)

Cylon Dreamers,
It seems that Glenn Larson creator of the original BSG from the late nineteen seventies and early nineteen eighties (see part 1 for insider info.) has finally been able to truly win over fans of classic sci-fi geeks and reinvigorate his story of man vs machine. How is that your wanting to know, huh? Well after seeing the vast improvements of the last two decades on the two other BIG NAMED sci-fi sagas and I don't think there true identities need mentioning well ok, maybe a couple or so pics may help: ,
or maybe not?, maybe much like TNG and even a whole lot more so from DS-9 it
was the structured storytelling that got Larson thinking once again about his machines known as the Cylons. In the Winter of two thousand and three on December eight and ninth a new re imaged pilot called BATTLE STAR GALACTICA aired as a three hour miniseries
. It was during time when my eldest niece Portia was as I talked about here quite a lot had a childhood form of Cancer, that she was dealing with over that year and finally had beaten it in the late spring of two thousand four. After her recovery we visited her and her family and at the Mall of America I happen to pick up the DVD cover shown above, watched the whole thing in one sitting on the AMTRAK ride from Minnesota to Washington state, I gotta say I'm not sure if before posting (comparison pt.1) if I truly recall much of the original BSG outside of seeing it maybe once or twice when visiting my aunt Mary Anne and her family in the summer of nineteen ninety two, while visiting the whole side of the Powers side of my mother's side of the family. Anyway (I seem to be, "reminiscing more than I should" when this is about, Battle Star Galactica the miniseries) The story of this new Galactica is by a Star Trek writing vet named Ronald D. Moore and Christpher Eric James based on a teleplay by Larson. This take on the universe of B.S.G. was immensely more fleshed out than Larson's original from nineteen seventy eight and the series which followed in that a good lot of story points were changed to fit equality of the world as it is now. The main thing that comes to pass in the miniseries, (that we were really came close to in two thousand and eight was having a madame President in Hilliary Clinton) as leader of the free world. It also took original character's like Dirk Benedict's StarBuck character
and made it a female as well. Now as to the central foes of man in this space tale are "no longer just robotic toasters" as Baltar claims the Cylons happen to now have twelve other models and apparently the sixth is
in his head and causing chaos aboard Galactica as well as tormenting him as well. I am sure that there are many surprises awaiting me in both takes of BSG of new and old alike, and like many who like one over the other, for this nerd known as Matt I too make love one over the other but I won't ever forget that the whole like anything is best!
