Maybe, since it looks like I'm the only one who watched Torchwood.

Ever fired your gun in the air and yelled, 'Aaaaaaah?'

I completely forgot Razor was on.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Watching now.

Those standard issue wifebeaters really make the women's arms look thin. I don't think of soldier and "widest part of arm is elbow" together.

I am so over the damaged female soldier. Can't we just fight? And having Cain be lesbian seemed a bit more of the same. Very "Aha! Makes total sense for the psycho violent woman in a man's world to be a dyke."

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Holy Frak! The old Cylons!

That was neat.

Is it just me, or is the climactic scene completely contrived? If the Cylon Raiders would shoot a nuke out of the sky...why was Lee going to do that in the first place? Or, more importantly, why didn't Adama give that reasoning at first? Geez.

I am intrigued by KARA THRACE: HARBINGER OF DOOOOOOOOOOM, though.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

It was nice to see Cain again, though, plus a couple other key players who got inconveniently killed off. And Steve Bacic got to add to his list of doomed second-in-command roles. (I bet someday he secretly hopes to get to live.) And despite the strictures of the role cliche, I thought the actor playing Shaw was up on her game.

So even though the movie was light on a bunch of characters whom I really really want to see more of, I was pretty damn fascinated for two hours, so yay.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

I liked Razor. Predictably, GF and I enjoyed Cain and her Cylon lover. We also laughed our asses off at the "It has been revealed!" ads scattered throughout.

Thank goodness for TiVo, is all I can say about those -- they seemed aimed at people with very short attention spans.

But all the rough handling and abuse that Gina received got a bit of an extra boot smooshed in her face with the revelation of whose lover she had been, you know? Did the creators decide on that later, when they decided to have a Razor movie or was it background that they meant all along to reveal later?
