  1. The best peacetime consigliere ever. RIP
  2. For all the steaming services out there, there’s a good handful of series that you can’t find on any service. Or in RDM BSG’s case, it was on Prime for a short while, then got shoved behind an additional paywall. 🤷🏻‍♂️
  3. It was from those Blood and Chrome prequel webisodes. The story was a little all over the place, but the dogfighting scenes were good.
  4. But those scenes also included a dogfight in the atmosphere. The Vipers were usually the go-to for space battles. So, it was rare to see the Raptor dipping, dodging, and trying to outmaneuver a group of Raiders.
  5. I am bummed that it’s damn near impossible to find the Raptor dogfighting scenes from the Blood and Chrome webisodes. Yes, they showed a Raptor (that big old chonky transport ship) dogfighting.
  6. One minor correction: four seasons. But it was one hell of a show. Flawed characters that actually grew and changed over the years. Fun and memorable dogfights. Themes and stories that are even more relevant today. And yeah, it may not be a traditional orchestral sound, but Bear McCreary made some damn good themes for the series.
  7. I do find it amusing that they didn’t pack Elisa with a gun. I mean she is a police detective after all. Nice to see they got most of the mains out though.
  8. Just curious, what mecha is this from?
  9. This is Garazeb “Zeb” Orrelios: He’s about to interrupt an impromptu romantic moment between his friends: This Valentine’s Day. . . don’t cockblock your friends: Don’t be like Zeb.
  10. Two things: 1) Why am I only now finding out about this Tiny Desk Concert series? A pretty large and diverse set of singers and groups did these. 2) How the hell is El DeBarge still hitting those high notes and falsettos so cleanly after all these years?!
  11. Yeah, I’m laughing about them calling M&G a “deluxe” offering. But at least, they’re putting out product before the movie actually premieres.
  12. I know it’s not a completely historically accurate replica, but wound up getting a GT40 in the Ken Miles livery:
  13. Yup, the guys look to be about the same size. Won’t give off the same vibe as the original movie, where there was this massive height difference between Connor and the Kurgan.
  14. And now their guitarist has passed away:
  15. When you have to deal with that stupid combo of hubris and incompetence, yup. . . it’s Facepalm Friday:
  16. ^^Yup, that's the one Ahsoka curb-stomps in that Tales of the Jedi short. No word about a Black Series version, but Black Series got Young Dooku from Tales of the Jedi that TVC never got.
  17. Still trippy to realize that the Home Alone mom is the same actress as the Schitt’s Creek mom. RIP
  18. I guess it makes sense to make Tri-Klops a sniper (with the whole eyesight thing). But I always remember him as being this hard to beat bruiser. . . . Yeah, the pack-in comics made an impression on me.
  19. I actually liked the Kallus arc, a few later seasons’ eps, and of course, Methos. Dude was a fun, smart take on an idea. I did have to Wikipedia the seasons just to confirm what eps aired in what season. And yeah, there was a ton of filler. But kinda hard to come up with numerous variations on “new antagonist comes in, causes beef, and gets beheaded by the end of the ep.” 😛
  20. Yup, the purple felty cat was Panthor. Not the most creative of names, but was a cool contrast to Battle-Cat.
  21. Slightly off topic: but the animated film Highlander: The Search for Vengeance is good little flick. It’s tropey as hell, but has enough fun action and an interesting enough story to make for an entertaining watch. Definitely far more entertaining than the live-action sequel films. A low bar, I know. But I wouldn’t mind watching it again. . . if I could find the damn thing for free on a streaming service.
  22. I did like that the TV Series used Kansas’ Dust in the Wind for a pivotal scene, and I could see them re-using here depending on what story-beats they use. But the Queen songs just work too damn well.
  23. I’ll have to see the sword fights before saying one way or another. And just pay the royalties to Queen already. Can’t be a Highlander movie without them in the soundtrack.
  24. Is that a little Kingfisher plane I spot there? Remember building a bigger one way back when I was a kid. . . and then having bits of it fall off over the years. 😅
