Battlestar Galactica The Plan thoughts from a BSG fangirl
October 22nd 2009 02:27
It has to be said that all this hype has meant nothing in reality because The Plan was a bit of a bore and it answered nothing I hadn't already worked out for myself. All it did was make me less sympathetic to the cylons than I had felt by series end. The Plan was yet again too much Cavill whining and not enough of the interesting characters. The introduction of brand new characters or in-depth stories about cylons like Simon who we never overly knew in the series seemed a waste of exposition that could have been spent better on characters of interest.
Add to this many of our favorite characters not even appearing (unless briefly in flashback) and what you have is a disappointing foray into what happens when you make a TV movie about all the characters you didn't overly care for in the series and mix it with a bunch of overly convoluted garbage filling out the stories of character so distasteful you just wish someone would airlock them sooner to give you some peace. (yeah I know... loooong sentence.. but so perfect at expressing what I wanted to).
Absolutely gutted Battlestar Galactica The Plan didn't come close to living up to what was promised. That said I'll still be purchasing the Bluray to round out my collection.
