Ay Dios Mio! Those promo photos were horrible, eh? The made Tricia Helfer look 'not her best' and that's hard to do. Eek! :/
Some questions to ponder: 1) Taking into account we already know how this story ends, to what extent has your perception of the show (and pilots) changed? It shocks me how NOT melancoly it made me feel. It reminds me of the time when there was a Capt. Apollo and Lt. Starbuck who still had not yet found themselves, or each other, completely in the universe. It makes me happy in the knowledge that the best is yet to come. Plus, the fact the everything just looks so new- jamie's hair color, EJO's contacts, the uniforms, dogtags, showers, the Caprica landscape, etc. is awesome. ;) lol
2) What about the first brig scene? Did it give you a different vibe? Not really; I still LOVE it, mainly because of this- "Maybe they are ex of some sort? Because given the way he stares and stares at her invitingly hot, full lips and her breasts… I could swear he has a hard-on. And I’m sure she craves for him too. Mmmm... " Hot stuff! ;)
3) What's your own view on Kara/Lee previous backstory right now? I'm at peace with it; I was always saddened, that as someone once said in their own review, "that Zak had to the catalyst of such pain for the two" even from the begining. I <3 you, Zak. ;)
4) When you watched the mini for the first time, which one (K/L) was your favourite? Why? And now? It was and always will be the brig scene, because it tells you this- "But that is the quality I love most about pilots, I guess; the extremely complicated yet paradoxically simple nature of their relationship. They are almost-siblings, friends, colleagues. But you can’t love your sister. You can’t love your dead fiancé’s brother. You can’t love your superior officer. And you can’t love your pilot. Yet they do. More than anything." Besos! Oh, Pilots! :D
*~*On a side note, upon rewatch, I forgot just how much the jumping away scene owns a little piece of my soul. Aboslutely everything(especially the dialoge) from the camera movement, music, and lighting, to fade out secquence at the end was pitch-perfect. "The guilt and responsibility that comes from these impossible decisions—as we'll see more than once throughout the series—is the price to pay in order to maintain a species' existence after the Armageddon." - So Say We All :D
