I saw Skyline. Intersting concepts, great spectial effects, and weak story. It was not the worst movie I have ever seen, but it was not great.

I've been out of the loop for a bit. Anyone bummed that Caprica got can'd? Also, whats up with all the 2011 Sci Fi push in movies? There is Tron, Battlefield LA, Cowboys and Aliens, Source Code, and some cartoon movie.

I do not doubt you at all.

I have not been on, because I started classes again after a four month break. Working full time + Going to School full time = much less free time. Lets just say I am enjoying my Thanksgiving weekend with days off from work and school till Monday!! Sofar I did Laundry and watched the last episode of Firefly. Tomorow I get to stuff my face!

Sounds wonderful! drinker The eating, I mean. I'm sorry you have been so busy, but I'm sure, in some ways, that's a good thing. Having a job and going to school are GOOD! happy

So, I'm finishing up season 6 of Lost and I will start on V. They have it on instant play on Netflix. Anyone seen it? I'm talking about the recent TV series...not the older one.

Jesus, I am not at all surprised that Caprica got canned. It took forever for some momentum to build up in the story.

Caprica from my vantage point was not that bad and I will explain my case. Look at SG1, Babylon 5, Farscape, Star Trek TNG, and for that matter X-files. All those great long running Science Fiction shows had no momentum till season 2 or 3 of the show! After the re-boot of BSG everyone is up for fast instant gratification that they can enjoy with other shows currently on that already went through there rough first season. Perhaps that is why the crappy show SGU is still on. You can't tell me Firelfly was lacking in momentum, which was near a perfect show and canned in less than a season. It’s all about the money and not about content or pleasing the fans anymore.

I was expecting to be disappointed with Caprica if I viewed them with my BSG goggles. It had a great amount of content to process, a great amount of drama, and no space action. With an open mind watching it, I realized the significance of the V world (what the cylons can still enter in BSG) and a further look at the division between Monotheism and Polytheism which was the same primary conflict in BSG. Caprica was best viewed as part of the big picture.

V is a well written show, largely due to the break they were force on because of the Olympics. This time allowed the writers to put out a better product, but the four months of no V caused the people who watched the first four episodes loose interest. It does not mean that the show became less interesting due to being a bad show, it was simply poor timing by the network, like Firefly, Jeremiah, Space Above and Beyond, Brisco County Jr. and all those other shows that didn't last but a season aswell.

While I see your points, I don't necessarily agree with them. The one thing that I will say is that TV shows ARE made to make money, otherwise there's no incentive for investors to pump capital into them. And while i did say that it took forever for Caprica to get going, I didn't think it was a bad show at all!
