amedia: (vids)
Here's my report for the fantastic vid show at the virtual Escapade 33.5. I kept a window open and typed up notes while the show was running. A lot of it is still more notes than sentences, but I hope it all makes sense! An asterisk means that the vid premiered at this vid show.

You can watch the vid show online at: https://vimeo.com/showcase/10584452

Certain vids, including all premiering vids, were discussed the next day at the Vid Review Panel; the abbreviation VRP introduces comments that were made by various participants when the vid was discussed and shared here with permission. All other comments are my own. Read more... )

I know I have some folks on my f-list who are into curling, and some who are into BSG, and at least one or two who are into both! So tell me - is it just me, or does the Canadian skip look a lot like Michelle Forbes (Ro Laren on TNG, Admiral Cain on BSG)?



While watching the curling and hockey, I've been seeing the new Subway ads a lot. I like the version that starts with Cleopatra, especially when the cat lifts its paw for the "five," but I *love* the one I saw first, the one that starts with the Indian dancers looking like something out of a Bollywood picturization. Even the old guy in his study seems to fit, because he and especially his study look very Victorian-London, which also makes me think of India. I was initially hoping they were introducing a new curry-flavored sandwich!

The actor who played DG's robo-Dad in Tin Man had a brief role in the BSG finale! not very spoilery, but just in case )

[livejournal.com profile] gblvr made this for me when I first got onto LJ. You can probably guess my major fandom at the time.

The movie meme, plus recent discussions with some of my Tin Man peeps reminded me of one of my favorite movies EVAR and I just had to make an icon. Actually, four.

amedia: Pretty blonde woman, #6 from Battlestar Galactica, overlaid with a pennyfarthing bicycle and the words number six in the font used on The Prisoner. (number six)
Looking for something else entirely, I happened to stumble across an entry on the IMDB for a four-and-a-half minute "proof of concept" short called "Battlestar Galactica: The Second Coming," put together by Richard Hatch to convince the suits that BSG could be made again.

There's a lot of info about it, and some stills, at http://www.battlestargalactica.com/hatchvision.htm

Everywhere I looked, I saw the same story - it's Not Available Anywhere. If you want to see it, you have to go to a convention that Richard Hatch is at and see it in person. Or you have to have gone to one while he was still trying to get BSG made - now that it's on I don't know if he's still showing the trailer.

So. In my experience, Not Available Anywhere means you need to know a secret handshake or something. Anyone have an avi of this tucked away on their hard drive? You can respond privately if you'd feel safer.

My sister-in-law, who also loves BSG, has a co-worker who is partly of Asian descent. Sis is staring at her one day and finally something clicks. "Hey!" she blurts out. "You look like Boomer!"

The co-worker smiles mysteriously and replies without missing a beat. "There are many copies," she says.

Could someone please tape "Invasion" for us tonight? And while we're at it, "Battlestar Galactica" this weekend? We have no idea when we're getting power. :-(
