Calla's Fourty-Ninth Post

OK, OK, OK, OK, OK,

So, I told you Gaeta would get his ass handed to him. That was obvious. So, the Galactica is just flat out FALLING APART. Chief noticed. Adama's gonna notice later. I saw a clip of it. This is bad, bad news.

Furthermore, is Anders dead?! I cried. I cried when Starbuck was holding him and all "Romo, you have to help me get him to sick bay." And at first Romo said no. And I was crying. There are pictures of Saul, Chief and Tory outside of sickbay. This is going to be cause Anders is in there dying! But then the previews were all Ellen resurecting. I don't get that exactly. I thought they aged?

HEAD SIX CAME BACK. Some people are going to be stupidasses and miss that. But, she was all "are you hurt?" "Let me have sex with you. . ." But that was totally head Six. She all smiled and stuff when Baltar wanted to return to his people. I could tell just from the way she looked at him when she was all "are you hurt?" She was glowing even.

So, how funny is it when all the cylons + Helo were escaping and Caprica's all "I got Hera." It's only a matter of times before that chick kidnaps that baby!

So four people took out that whole firing squad? Not took out, just made surrendur. That is the only slighlty unrealistic part. But Athena and Saul are cylons. Lee is frackin badass. And I don't really know much about Aaron Kelley. But maybe he's good at life. He's got adrenilian on his side.

Um, what else is up? Zarek and Gaeta are dead. OH, this is it? Was the conversation between Baltar and Gaeta real or fake? If it was fake, in whose head was it? Both? Well, Gaeta died a happy death 'cause his leg stopped itching. That's good. I mean, really, he did finally get what was coming to him. He played both sides on New Caprica. And, unlike Baltar, he was not held at gunpoint. I always thought Gaeta was in love with Baltar. I think this really confirmed it.

This is just gonna be crazy the rest of the show.

Oh next week is dollhouse at 9 p.m. on Friday! Right before Galactica! (But on Fox.) So, that means double the Helo. Only it won't be Helo. Double what's his name. . . I don't know it. It's an American-Indian name I think, so it's hard for me to remember and pronounce.

The Caprica pilot is going to be released on DVD a year before the show! That's nutty. But I'm excited.

OK, I'm gonna look up Helo's real life name. Tahmoh Penekitt. Ok, that's a guess. Because the Battlestar wiki is all busy with all these nerds going on it after the show to clear up some things, like say that want to remember if Aaron Kelley and Chief where ever friends since Kelley let Chief go. . . So, Tabby spelled it. It might be Penikitt though he said. I'll confirm it on the wiki soon. Is that an American Indian name or am I being racist?

Whose gonna feed the good informer doggy friend? Romo better get back to that puppy!! I love puppyfriends!!

The wiki won't work. I'll let you know in a part 2. Here are the 2 sets of kitty pictures as promised.

Oh, I also wanted pointed out that any commercial I see during Galactica makes me want to buy the products LESS. . . MUCH MUCH LESS because these stupid idiotic people are ruining my show. Seriously, I hate them all. Especially the KFC ones. You are ruining my show by advertising abused and murdered chickens? Really? Yeah, they're dumb.

My kitties just got in a fight!! It hurt my feelings a lot. Mama was on the couch and Fuffers jumped up not realizing she was there. He jumped up right there right next to her like really too close for comfort I understand and Mama hit him in the face!! I put my hand in between to try to stop it cause it was sad and her claw went into my hand!!! So I know her claws were out when she hit him!!! This wasn't ok!! I'm afraid he is injured and also that they will never be friends again. :(


Look at the size discrepancy.


Eating there Vegebals. (I'm mad at Mama still)

Calla's Thirty-Eighth Post

I promise I will get off of this Galactica kick soon. (until next Friday, anyway) But, I just wanted to say that I made a funny connection about my original final cylon list. (Calla's First Post) Ellen was on the "I will write angry letters" list (on a scale of 1 -5 one being the best five being the worse, this was number 4), but Caprica and Tigh's love child is on the "Doesn't Suck" list (#2). But, now I am under the impression that Caprica is carrying Ellen. . . So I guess that averages to number 3. Which is right in the middle of great and awful. That means it "only sucks a little." Not so bad, not so bad.

Here is a link to an interview that is well worth the read. http://featuresblogs.chicagotribune.com/entertainment_tv/2009/01/final-fifth-cylon-ellen-tigh-battlestar-galactica-dualla-dee-.html

Firstly, it makes clear that "the blaze" happened the same time earth was nuked. So clearly, this was the same war. I'm not sure if the centurions rebelled or the humans found the cylons before settling on the twelve colonies or what. But both of these nuclear explosions were from the same war. . So why has Kobol reginerated itself so fully and earth is still a wasteland? The blaze may not actually be a nuclear holocaust, but massive fires or something. That would be the simplist explanation. However, there might be a supernatural answer instead.

Secondly, the interview sparked my thinking more deeply about Cavil's connection with the final five. Clearly this model, or at least some of the individuals in that model, knows who they are. He has been messing with them this whole time! Brother Cavil talked to chief trying to convince him he wasn't a cylon. On New Caprica, he slept with Ellen and tore out Saul's eye (potentially. I don't remember for sure if he mentions who did it, but Cavil is the one who talks about changing his calendar markings and is the one who lets him out finally. He probably was the one torturing Saul.) On Caprica, Cavil was in the resistance of which Anders was the leader. The only missing piece is Tory. Tory seems so random though! I mean, she was a part of the New Caprica resistance. She was actually in charge of getting Hera safely off the planet (which she failed to do.) But she hasn't been a major character. I think they needed a hot young woman to sleep with Baltar who was also high up in the Presidential administration in order to complicate things there. . . which Tory fits. But I wish she had some connection to Cavil. It would just make it so much more perfect! I hope it'll turn out that way in The Plan.

The stuff about D. is depressing.

Finally, what I learned from this interview is super exciting! Read Chief's original flashback before they had to cut it all for the budget's sake. . . BOOMER. Boomer will come back. I am sure of it. And I am sure they will be together, at least briefly. It makes me so excited.

On a related note, the Caprica series is shaping up to be super confusing. What I have gathered from reading the beginning of the pilot script and watching one scene which has been filmed and edited is that basically everyone has the capacity to act as humanoid cylons. They have virtual reality clubs. You conciousness is downloaded into a virtual copy of your body and you can do whatever. Meanwhile, you body is sitting there vacant, like the bodies of the cylon models. When you die, you consciousness is re-instated into your physical body. Sound a wee bit like resurection to anyone else? Additionally, you are able to make copies of your body and consciousness in the virtual reality world. They then become independent entities. . . which freaks the hell out of me, because what happens to them when they die! AHHH. Scary as hell. It's like virtual reality cylons in that people think they are not humans, yet they have the same consciousness and abilites as humans. But basically, it brings more of the what makes a person a person theme that galactica started. EVERYTHING'S INSANE.

UM, finally I would just like to tell you that the one day when Tabby did the frogface thing, it made me laugh like the ghostband does! I kid you not. It was unexpected and thus hilarious!! But, for some reason I didn't write that the day I wrote about it. I dunno why.

Love,
Calla and her kitties who are asking for food!!


I guess we shoulda bought TWO beds!

Calla's Thirty-Sixth Post

Alright, well this sucks. Looks from my snooping around the internet desperately seeking information about the Final Cylon that it is Ellen Tigh. This is what finally convinced me there is no other possibility

"7) Her appearance in the fleet was quite suspicious, and we know from leaked info from "The Plan" that Cavil helped Ellen get off Caprica

I'm not saying Cavil knew Ellen was one of the final five, but it does seem interesting that they would go back and visit Ellen's escape from the attack, unless it was an important thing" (http://forums.scifi.com/index.php?showtopic=2320602)

The Plan is a made-for-TV movie that will come out after Battlestar Galactica ends. It is about the cylons and their whole nuking the 12 colonies thing. (I'm personally pretty stoked for it.) Nonetheless, if this is true, and I see no reason to believe otherwise, it makes sense that Ellen is the final cylon. All 12 cylons are supposed to be in The Plan (except maybe D'Anna for some reason or another. DUMB), and it's just too ironic that Cavil helps her escape. (Especially because he's so determined never to think about the final five!)

Well, I still haven't given up hope that it's NOT Ellen. Maybe they "leaked" this info. to appease us all so we wouldn't search far enough to find out who the REAL final cylon is. Maybe Ellen is really important to explain some of the other mumbo-jumbo that is going on in the Galactica Universe. ('cause there certainly is a lot of mumbo-jumbo.) She is going to be in a strip club in The Plan supposedly. Additionally, supposedly there are like flash-back typa things with Ellen and a Six in a strip club sometime during 4.5. I HOPE this has some significance other than Ellen being the final cylon and that this is why there is such a big deal made about her.

However, this seems doubtful. All the spoiler sites have her as one of the options. . . and I am upset. I will know for sure on Friday whether I must start the angry letter writing campaign. But MAN what a missed opportunity having it NOT be Kendra Shaw. (I have resolved myself by now that it is not, unless the chick goes uncredited in everything Galactica related besides Razor.) The disappointing part of this is the whole "crawling towards the light seeking redemption bit" the hybrid in Razor said. (He's gonna be a main character in Caprica!! Not the hybrid, the man he once was! PSYCHED!) I don't remember if this seeking redemption thing was in a deleted scene or not though. . . ANYway, it also woulda been great to introduce her in the movie, have everyone think she was gone, and then bring her back. Additionally, she is not in the fleet, nor is she in the last supper picture. It just seems like such a good opportunity! They got us so attached to her, and for what? (Nothing.) PLUS: SHE'S HOT!!! (hehe.)

So, Ellen, that's just TOO MUCH irony. It was already ironic that Saul killed his wife (or appears to have killed her; who knows at this point?) for collaborating with the cylons, and then turned out himself to be a cylon. We don't need his wife to have turned out to be a cylon as well!! STUPID. Also, from what does SHE need redemption? Sleeping around too much? No, DUMB. I dunno man. I'm just sad. This is just sad. They better do the head Caprica/ head Baltar bit amazingly well or I will cry.

Everyone says there's no way to do the final cylon well 'cause it's just been built up too much. . . UH YEAH THERE IS: Kendra. Alas, it shall never come to pass.

That is all for now. :( I will let you know for most certain on Friday. I will let you know if they manage to pull it off spectacularly somehow with it being Ellen.

Calla and her cats
