BSG Madness on Heroes and Heartbreakers!

[thrace-adama.livejournal.com]

Hi, shippers!

Just wanted to mention that the site I work for, HeroesandHeartbreakers.com (H&H), has been talking lots of BSG (and thus Kara/Lee!) over the last few days due to the BBC America premiere of the mini.

We've covered the Secretly British ad (which for some reason involved talk of JB's lovely ass in the comments) and trailers. And just today we put up a discussion post called Battlestar Galactica: A Shipping Genesis about part 1 of the mini from the POVs of a newbie (aka the H&H community manager, Megan) and a superfan (me! Heather aka redline_). If you're up to it, we'd welcome more points of view in the comments! We're talking first impressions of the show itself, the characters, and the relationships. I talk a lot about Starbuck and Apollo because they pretty much ARE the show for me.

We'd love to hear your thoughts!

Watching the trailer I was once again confronted with what IMHO is the worst line in the mini: Moments ago this ship received word of a Cylon attack against our home worlds is underway. Every time I hear this I cring because it's structure is just so wrong.

It should have been:
...of a Cylon attack against out home worlds.

or
...that a Cylon attack against our home worlds is underway.

As it was presented though it left me with the feeling that somebody wasn't paying attention to editing.

It's such an important line for that episode that it leaves me wondering that they weren't trying to portray Adama as weak, confused, or upset. That explanation just makes no sense to me for that part of the story. At that point he's supposed to be the strong leader who's taking charge.

Anyone else have a similar really DUH! reaction at that point or is it just me?

obviously I meant our in the first possibility.

DUH!
