THe BESt BATTleStAR SINce thE PiloT

If you missed last weeks installment oF BSG then you missed what can only be described as "THE BEST EPISODE EVER!!!!!!!!!!"
It can only be described as action packed mania and nerve splitting drama.
Seems the Cylons are becoming more human and the humans are becoming more Cold Hearted Machine.
Case in point...
The Prez decides that Sharon can't be allowed to keep her new child... you read it right Sharon has the kid... so she fakes the kid's death and gives the kid to an adopted parent.
Who by the way has no idea that the child she just adopted is half human and half cylon.
Back on Caprica, Starbucks little boytoy soldier decides to blow up a cafe and takes #6 and Sharon with it.
BUT this Sharon is the new body with the old memories stuck in it as well as the #6 who was doing BALTAR who takes his pop shots at her since...wait for it...he is stuck in her head like the #6 is stuck in Baltar's head on Galactica.
And to sweeten the pot, Xena is back in full force as the back stabbing cylon bitch who wants to "Box" #6 and Sharon cause they wont conform to the military ways of the other cylons.
All this happens in the space of 45 minutes and let me tell you it was GOOOOOOD!!!!!!!!!
The best scene is how #6 takes out Xena.
You just know that when she wakes up in her new body she's gonna do that war-cry thing and pop a cap in #6's ass.
Watch your back baby cause I likey you mucho.
Very cool and complicated story here.
Download it on your ipod if you missed it.
It's well worth the 1.99.
C U Around...

Thanks for waiting...I'm back!!!

Hey sorry its been so long since my last blog but I've had some family issues I've been dealing with.
I've been reading alot of comics lately and wanted to spend some time with them.
I finally got all the Spider-man Other storyline and read all 12 issues.
This is the storyline where Spidey was gonna be reinvented into a whole new character.
Well they did some freaky stuff with my boy and I can't say I'm all to happy with the outcome.
Seems that Peter "dies" and the spider god or something like that brings him back.
They actually had him slip out of his skin and be reborn into this new stronger creature.
So imagine Spidey just faster stronger and with a Spider Sense that more instinct then reaction.
Also Tony Stark A.K.A Ironman keeps talking about a new costume hes making for Peter.
Oh NO not another costume change.
Guess Alex Ross isn't the only artist who's hates drawing all those lines.
I hear its gonna be some gold colored thing.
Oy Vey!!! Sounds exciting....NOT!
But I'll wait to see what it looks like before passing judgment.
You never know I might just like the outcome.
I also got the last part of the Spider-man and Black Cat story line that was started 3 years ago by Kevin Smith and that he just finished.
Suffice to say it wasn't as good as some of his other stuff.
Very average for a talent like Kevin Smith.
I guess when you take a 3 year break between stories it hurts the "flow" of the story.
Ya THINK!!!!!
Anyway I'll be reading the New Avengers soon and also the Ultimates so I'll get back to that later.
And I'm waiting to read the Identiny Crisis storyline until I get all the issues.
So get back with me and I'll get back to you.

Superboy becomes the Man of the house :(

It's taken me one full week to chat about the death of Jonathan Kent.
I really didn't see it coming!
Stupid as it sounds I thought it would be Chloe.
You see Chloe works for the Daily Planet and I thought that with her death, Lois (her cousin) and Clark (her close friend) would take up the mantle at the Planet after her death.
Or I thought it was gonna be Lionel Luther cause he knows too much and he was once taken control over by Jor-El Clark's biological father.
But alas it was first Lana that got her head smashed in and "saved" once again by a foolish and naive Clark that jumped the gun to save his love and then lost his Earth Father in the process.
I mean dam it he didn't even propose to her again and now Jonathan's death was for nothing.
I am so saddened by his death but it was sooooo oblivious it was gonna be him.
I mean in the original comics and in the movie Jonathan does die.
Of a heart attack too.
It was so right there in front of my face.
ARGGGGHHHH!!!!!!
It drives me crazy and this weeks ep was so sad.
Watching Clark freeze up and close himself off from the ones he loves was very powerful.
And this chick Vengeance was way too cheesy to care for.
Although I loved all the "Superman" set up and the whole "hey Clark do you think you could play the mild mannered reporter by day and the crime fighter by night".
Very nice line Chloe and Alfred.
A last thought... when Clark and his mom hug at the end and the tears fell from his eyes, well you just knew the tears were in mine too.
And that goodbye scene in the video tape of Jonathan. :(
Bye John you were the perfect father to a super boy.
