BSG news *Possible Spoilers*

[Guest Emperor]

 

From AICN:

 

An army of online journalists recently converged on the Vancouver set of “Battlestar Galactica.” Media Blvd. covered the press event and came back with a couple of intriguing spoilers for the earliest episodes of the series’ fourth and final season, filming now.

 

An excerpt:

 

    [Actor Aaron] Douglas revealed that the final 5 Cylons are in fact a different breed of Cylon than the human form versions that attacked the colonies. These 5 in fact are the original Cylon’s, are immortal, and are the Cylon Gods. Apparently, the repeating theme within the show, that all of this has happened before, and will happen again is going to be explored in the final season. But it was clear that the implications are that the Cylon’s rose before in the distant past of the colonies, and will rise again.

 

This is especially interesting because “Galactica” mastermind Ron Moore is still keen to mount “Caprica,” a “Galactica” prequel series set about 50 years before Cylon War II. This series was supposed to deal with a Caprican scientist’s creation of the Cylons. Douglas’ assertions, though, suggest Cylons have been around a whole lot longer than 50 years.

 

Another excerpt:

 

    In Season 4, according to those on the set, it will be revealed that the centurion models are capable of intelligent thought, but the human form Cylons have been suppressing that ability with a device implanted in the positronic brain of the Cylon’s that prevents them from reasoning, and keeps them passive. No one would go into further details, but apparently a number of Centurions have these devices removed, and the battle damaged set is the result of the confrontation between these Centurions and their human form Cylon Masters.

 

SciFi will transmit a Pegasus-centric two-hour “Galactica” TV-movie titled “Razor” in November. The other 20 hours of the final season will hit SciFi next year.

There is still one final cylon to be announced, right?

[woolhead]

Yes, and I'm here to reveal the big secret...

 

 

IT'S ME!!! Mwahahahaha... PREPARE TO BE CRUSHED, HORN. >:( >:( >:(

 

 

 

 

 

On a more serious note, reading those two excepts makes the final season seem kinda just "blah" to me... I'll still watch it, or at least start watching it, but I can't say I'm too overly excited right now... :-\

[F Horn of Valere]

I still think it is Starbuck... I've thought her and Tigh since the end of season 2.

[woolhead]

Nah, I don't think it's her. Since these final cylons are supposed to be invincible gods or whatever... I think Starbuck is "a human counter-point/part" to that.

 

I really don't know who I would say it could be though... maybe we haven't met them yet...

[F Horn of Valere]

lol, I do admit I have my doubts, but I am pretty darn happy at least considering I was right with Tigh.

 

 

So what about Baltar? Is it not him because it is too obvious, or is it him because it is too obvious that he can't be, just because it is too obvious?

[woolhead]

As much as I wish it was Gaius, perhaps only to get him the stfu... I doubt it's him... it would be too obvious... and it would make all the stuff that happened last season with him pointless... and that would just piss me off.

 

Hopefully it is the president... I doubt it, but I'm still somewhat hopeful...she annoys me too. lol.

[Segurant]

I don't think the final Cylon is Starbuck.  I think Starbuck became one of the Lords of Light. 

[woolhead]

Yeah I agree, that's basically what I was trying to say earlier... ^_^

[Emperor]

Agreed.  What I really wanted to see from Gaius was to take over as the leader of the Cylons.

 

It looks like they will be going towards a Cylon civil war... which would make sense because the Cylons would need something to preoccupy them from the humans if they are going to reach earth. 

[F Horn of Valere]

That would be so genius considering no one thinks it is him because it is too obvious.
