Snoopy Caps isn’t a derision it’s a nickname due to the fact they look like snoopy ears.

No, you clearly and unequivocally imply it with the comparison of a scholar from one era to a random person from another. It’s a dubious assertion, on the merits, given that being taught someone does not mean they have functional knowledge. A medical scholar from Baghdad in 1300 knew more about the body than a random…
I realize I’m coming off stronger and more like a jerk here than I intend, but you’ve got to understand I’ve had this argument 5000 times and every single time I get the same responses from people who seem to think all the work people do to study history is just as valid as the vague notions of the past they’ve…
Good Gods. I’m really going to get lectured by a bunch of people with no historical education on my own goddamn field today huh?
I’m conflicted about this. On the one hand, what better sign of a creatively exhausted culture run by beancounters than a reboot of a ten year-old reboot?
My new headcannon. The events of the last season of Mr. Robot leads to the creation of the Cylons, and somehow the 13 colonies, and they're set in the same universe, including the 2004 series
I have forgotten and will continue to forget Dancing with the “Stars,” this year starring Sean Spicer.
Actually many Old BSG fans (and stars) were (and still are) against the new series.
A story within the mythology never covered in BSG would be the First Cylon War. It went on for 20 years, with Adama as a young pilot (he was 16 when he joined the Colonial Fleet).
In the sci-fi realm Disney has Star Wars, CBS of course has Star Trek, Apple now has Jason Momoa. And now, NBC has Battlestar again.
Every episode is just President Airlock airlocking different people who annoy her. Until there is only her left.
I think it has to be said that Ronald D. Moore’s Battlestar Galactica set the gold standard for completely re-imagining a previously existing property. He really took the show and rebuilt it from the bottom up and added depth and concepts that were only vaguely hinted at in the original. He made a wholly new show.…
Isn’t the core truth in Battlestar Galactica how the Human/Cylon thing has repeated in the universe across countless billions of years? So wouldn’t this just be another step in that process, rather than a reboot? I don’t hate the idea but I don’t feel like it’s necessary in the slightest. The previous series was…
Can they just reboot the last few episodes?
There are so many great sci-fi book series out there, there is zero reason to do these incessant reboots other than a complete lack of courage on behalf of the companies making them. Altered carbon was a bold move by Netflix, though I feel like they should have read the whole series before making that decision. I…
I wonder; in this new reboot, will all the pieces of paper used, have their corners cut off?
In both its incarnations to date “Battlestar Galactica” leaned heavily on American legends of World War II, especially the attack on Pearl Harbor.
So why even have TV networks anymore if their “prestige” shows are going to a streaming service we have to pay for? This is getting stupid.
Can they just reboot the last season instead?
As a kid, I was tall and skinny with a long torso. One-piece swimsuits NEVER fit - the torso was never long enough. If it was, the boobs and butt parts were way too loose. Jumpsuits don’t fit me now, for the same reason. If the parents are upset not every body fits into the generic cut of a speedo, they should…
