dolariIf you haven't seen the Battlestar Galactica finale, I really suggest you don't play this video. Title says it all.
Proof that Ronald D Moore ATE MY BRAIN.
Okay, maybe not ATE so much as somehow made several telepathic connections with me and pulled ideas from "The Long Road Home" and added them to Day Break. I'm not syaing he stole them, or that he really did plunder my headmeats, but , my god, he REALLY hit the nail on some scenes I wanted for The Long Road Home.
0:06 - 0:40: The BSG video shows the Capricans splitting up and walking off into the savannah to start new lives. The LRH version of this scene involves clans of the tribe spreading across the plains after 20 years in the mountains decimates the tribes.
0:53-1:30: The BSG Video shows Athena and Helo joking with Hera who is the better hunter. In the LRH version of the Han'a/Nen'a/Manwaz story, Han'a and Nen'a joke about who is the better hunter with Emm'a (the joke being Nen'a hasn't hunted since she became one of the women and Han'a really only being a scout - this scene actually dates back to AWFW, but was cut).
4:38-5:12 The BSG video shows Adama sitting on a rock overlooking the savannah, huge pan of the scenery, discussing the cabin he's going to make. In LRH, Nen'a, an old woman by this time, sits on a bluff overlooking the plains and wondering if she could ever make a home on the plains without Han'a and Emm'a. Instead f being content, thoguh, she decides to go back through the mountains and find their bodies.
5:16-7:22 The BSG video shows Hera playing in the fields, then dissolves to the present day 150,000 years later where two angels talk about how far humanity has come. The ending of LRD has a young boy playing on a beach, with his father. The boy stops playing, sits next to his father and falls asleep, where the scene dissolves 14,000 years to the future, and a young boy sleeping soundly in his bed, while his father gets up, looks out the window and sees the city lights beyond and he comments on how, ifg the story is true, how far the tribe has come.
...makes what I gotta to about the comics in the next few months all the harder...
