Okay, I'm going to brew up some controversy:

I don't like the towel scene.

Yes, I know I am the only fan alive who does not. Even people who've never seen an episode will squee over the towel screencaps. Lee does have a magnificent body, but nearly seeing the Arrow of Apollo -- hidden only by a teeny tiny towel -- kinda makes me squirmy, and not in the lusty way. Why? Because I am a prude (who is currently attempting to write for the Porn Battle, but whatever.)

Instead, I prefer Lee Jamie Matt Devlin in a gorgeous wool coat and cashmere scarf! Mmm. Guys in coats are one of my big kinks. Especially guys like this one:



Hoo boy!

(And while I am actually serious about not being into the towel scene -- yeah, I'm weird that way -- I'm posting this comment just because I know it'll get lots of hilarious squee and pics about the towel and Jamie's hot abs and what everyone would love to do with The Arrow of Apollo. In my opinion, that's just the kind of kickoff this rewatch needs. Bring it on! WHEE! ;)

Okay, I'll be here then. :)

Jamie looks so hot with the scarf. GUH. As well as with only a teeny tiny towel. Hee.

I can't disappoint your expectations, Al. But I'm gonna do you one better and just bypass the towel all together:

Oh, no! You are going to make me blush on Jamie's behalf! Poor, poor Jamie, being OBJECTIFIED like that! You should appreciate him for his intellect and keen wit, not his happy trail!!!!!

(BTW, the camera angle in the second pic makes him look like he's got a nipple ring. Wow, Mr. Griffith, I had no idea you were so kinky.)

[http://users.livejournal.com/wisteria_/]

Mmm, the scarf is so very delicious. I wonder what he'd do if I knit him one. (And, in the spirit of this thread, maybe I should also knit him one of these (http://www.swampcrone.com/?p=8)? It does apparently get cold on the ship....)

It's all for the good of the BEARS. **nods**

BARE SKIN NOT BEARSKIN REMEMBER? OR CASHMERE OR WOOL.... SHEEP ARE PEOPLE ANIMALS TOO!

;)

What can I say? I don't want to start a book club with him.

Lol, it kind of does look like a nipple ring. Someone should totally blingify this picture!

it's impossible to top the PETA pictures...srsly, but I can contribute by adding some movement to the party...a preview of the shape of things to come this evening.

Oh hi there hip dents...we'll see you soon!

**hugs you tight for bringing on the controversy**

I think there's a time and a place for fine men in all phases of dress (and undress). Wool coats are super yummy (and scarves are a must!), as are nonexistent towels. It just cracks me up to think that the other pilots were probably stealing his regular-sized towels just so he'd be forced into suuch a compromising position. **pets poor under-toweled Lee**

**giggles wildly and covers face with hands**

Ok, Now I'M blushing....


**also loves on your icon**

What can I say? I don't want to start a book club with him.


Ok, now that's totally going in my quotes of the week...

[aurora-0811.livejournal.com]

OMG, I didn't expect that. LOL Now there's a gift for the man who has everything!

[eugis.livejournal.com]

It does get cold. He could totally use one. I can go and measure him for you. lol

Awww I love that icon of Gromit!

There would be so much more to do in a book club Jamie than just reading...

[callmeonetrack.livejournal.com]

I stole it/twisted it from one of my favorite movies:

Some Kind of Wonderful:

Keith (on his attraction to the fetching Miss Amanda Jones): It's not just sex.
Watts (snorts): Oh? You wanna start a book club with her?

[callmeonetrack.livejournal.com]

Hmm. It moves nice and slow too. ;)

[workerbee73.livejournal.com]

Dude, I haven't seen that movie in ages.

Good snerch.

Does the Galactica have rulers that big?

I can't stick around as I'm about to take my mum to a doctor's appointment. But there is an observation I want to make about this ep. We know that the life of a pilot includes being immuned to co-ed nakedness but now that we know Kara and Lee couldn't keep their hands off each other the very first time they met - and they were fully clothed - I just don't see how they could've been showering and dressing together and it not get to them in this ep. There's nothing angsty going on and Lee isn't currently pissed off at her. In fact, the last thing we saw them do was hug and kiss and stick to each other like glue on Kobol because they were missing each other. So Lee walking around and refusing to harness little Lee for twenty minutes and Kara seductively spouting off poetry in her underwear and it not particularly affect either of them seems...off. Especially considering next episode it will only take Dee collapsing on him in a room full of people to thrill Lee to his toes.

Love that. My favorite 80s teen flick. Favorite John Hughes movie too.

[eugis.livejournal.com]

Bad writing and absolutely no character continuity?

[thrace-adama.livejournal.com]

LOL, I was thinking that too. And that I should really make sure Kiki sees it. TOO FUNNY, Tara.

[eugis.livejournal.com]

Sooo lickable... ;p
