Battlestar Galactica: want to see the opening of season three? like right now?

Seriously. The first ten minutes of Friday’s season premiere have been made available online.

Click here.

I mean, click there if you can’t wait.

No shame if you can’t. Hell, I couldn’t. Minute I knew the thing was available I fired up the video stream. Sue me, I’m weak. :slight_smile:

And I ain’t saying a word about it. Not yet, anyway.

Spoilers, no doubt, will follow. That is, of course, if I can find enough other like-minded Galactica fans who cannot resist the lure of new Galacticky goodness, and who wish to discuss with me the revelations contained therein.

Well, actually, I will say one word about it.

That word, obviously, is FRAK.

Enjoy.

speakingof frak -

all I get is a page inviting me to watch the video - it won’t actually GO to the video…

GRRRR

Do you have popups blocked? I click “watch video now” and a new window appears with the video player. Maybe try control-click?

It took a couple of tries before I got the video to load. Not gonna spoil anything, but I will say it was well worth the trouble to watch…

Ye Gods, that was awesome. A couple of thoughts (spoiler tags aren’t working, so scroll down):

[SPOILER]
Leoben’s line “frakkin’ insurgents” kind of took away any chance the writers might have had to say this show isn’t a parable of Iraq. I remember one of the podcast commentaries denied it - I don’t think we’ll here that again. Doesn’t matter, though- it’s incredibly well-done. Watching them set off an IED was intense.

Did Tigh’s wife frak the Cylon to get her husband out of detention? If so, that’s pretty cool - Cylons can be corrupt!

Leoben and Kara really need to work on their relationship, I think. Use your words, Kara, not your pointy objects. Funny thing is that Leoben clearly knew Kara couldn’t be trusted with a knife - why’d he give her a long, stabby fork? [/SPOILER]

Noooo, I am not looking.
(It starts this Friday? Whoa, I still have to watch all the webisopdes.)

Wow.

This is good.

Definitely wow. And also possibly not safe for work, depending where you work.

I think I’ll pass on the Hogan’s Heroes Story Arc for now. :rolleyes:

If I wanted to see the old French Resistance redone, I’d go back and watch some of the old WWII movies. :rolleyes:

So Say We All

This is the ONLY reason I still have extended basic on my cable.

I am so pissed that I have to wait until Saturday to watch the whole thing.

E.

So Say We All…

frak… that was good…

Interestingly, it isn’t available to non-U.S. locations. We get the series here (Canada) on Space, but SciFi Channel seems reluctent to let us see the preview.

Are they going to sell the episodes on I-Tunes again??

Wow. Do they jump right back into the action or what? I guess I was expecting some drawn out exposition and crap. This was some powerful stuff! Is it Friday yet?

I had a split second of telling myself “you should wait till Friday and get the full effect.” Yeah, that didn’t last. Before I could even finish the thought my fingers were opening the link all on their own. Is it Friday yet?

Memo: Do not piss off Kara Thrace.

Especially during dinner!

Kara is aka Starbuck, right? She’s a little skinny for my tastes, but

looks nice with long hair

I only started watching the reruns a few weeks ago, but I’m hooked. I haven’t anticipated a season opener this much since Babylon 5…

I wonder how many times she has done that? It seemed to…normal, like it had happened often.

Kinda got the impression that

she may not be entirely sane. That image of her eating with bloodstained hands makes me wonder if she’s losing it
