feel free to skip it if you've had enough of this BS: Hee! Nah, I enjoy your snark. ;)
o be honest they didn't exactly blow my mind in those scenes, was it really worth it? *lol* It's have to be bloody mindblowing TV to justify it, imo. And it really wasn't THAT great. I wouldn't even say it was the strongest material we've seen on BSG!
.RDM reminds me of someone who has written the first and last page of a novel, thinking he was a genius for crafting that Hee! Seriously. I'm an editor and I am just constantly ITCHING to edit the fuck out of him. He needs to be sat down and told some very basic home truths about writing and storytelling. Like 'if something is going to be significant later in the story, introduce it earlier on so it doesn't look like it comes out of your ass nowhere' and 'don't expect your audience to accept all leaps in logic on goodwill alone'.
pages full of disjointed sentences and a few smilies drawn in between, you can't call that literature! HEE! I think the middle's more like some really purple prose and a handwritten note from the author in the margin saying 'wasn't this bit AWESOME!?!!?!'
the writers seem to have forgotten everything about story construction, drametic effects, how you use already established stories and character points and build up on them Yes, yes they have. I'm so chuffed someone else is noticing this and it's not just me, I just needed to chorus my agreement. ;)
