i *heart* Cylons
i've always thought that Cylons were real kickass moforobos, in their chrome, sleek-black outfits, and even the "skirt" (!) and the (Knight Rider/KITT-ish) red-moving eye-lights! heck, i like them slightly even more than Stormtroopers...*slightly* ;p
okay, and maybe also i *heart* Colonial Vipers.
Colonial Vipers *RAWKS!* = *both new and old skool* ... heck, i remembered vaguely building one out of scrap-cardboard and even the core of a toilet-paper-roll (as the Viper-body); to fit my playmobils yahrens ago when i was but a wee ...horkay... :p
caught Battlestar Galactica The Movie (on VCD) just and thoroughly enjoyed the retro-space-trip. (my version is where an epilogue exists @ the end of the feature, where Baltar is spared his life by a new Imperious Leader, to go forth and advocate peace, along with the droid; Lucifer) - inclusive of the conflicts between characters, much like Star Wars and lesser the "cordial nature" of Star Trek (IMHO ;p) and tho i have yet to see the "re-imagined" version
one thing i've learnt from the movie: *do not let little kids run off blindly on an alien desertland and/or in a alien casino; after their irritating robo-daggets* = coz heck as i'll put a lightsabre to his butt *URGH* ;p
