BSG- Blood and Chrome - frakking A

Interesting to see that the Berserk and the Valkyrie are Cylon War era designs, seems the Colonial fleet built ships to last ...

could be but I think that might be stretching it a bit... snow planet... desert planet... one filmed in tunisia somewhere kinda sorta near Djerba... the other is a digital snow planet they called Djerba... meh. If they called it Hoth or Mos Djerba then maybe... but way too esoteric to be an actual nod to star wars... better easter eggs in the show than that one! :lol

I guess you'd know...:lol
 
Episodes keep getting better. :popcorn

I wonder if there would be any inerest for the colonial sidearm I made for the show? :rolleyes

I don't know..... it's just a thought.
 
Well..... I think it would be cool to do a run. I have to look into it because these I actually designed and made on my own.... hoping to slide them into Caprica when I was doing work for that show. They never had a need to use them. I designed them to be pre-BSG Pilot Show era colonial sidearms. Basically something that would have been 50 years prior. Evetually the studio rented them. So they don't own the design, I do. Now, the entire BSG name etc.... yeah... that's theres. So, I have to stay away from all that.

Well, It would be cool to do a small run if I can. Maybe we should see how much of an interest there would be first.
 
What you nee to to do is go start an INTEREST thread !

:love

Trust me, a dedicated thread with THAT in the title
will get you allot more attention ! Not everyone into
props comes over here and reads all the other threads
in these other sections..

Do that, and I KNOW you'll get some attention ! :thumbsup
 
Definitely going to look into it. Thanks guys.

As for these little episodes.... like I said before.... I'm liking the way they did it. From reading posts here, it's definitely stirring up the suspense a tad. I do wish they would have went a little more on that typical BSG "dead space" muffled sound when they would pan out when showing space craft flying around. Doing so just adds to that whole emptiness of space. I'm not feeling it as much as I did with BSG. Anyone noticing that as well?

actually if you follow the official facebook page for Blood & Chrome they said that Djerba wasn't a deliberate reference for SW or Mos Eisley.
One of the more subtle references in the episode though is for Star Trek DS9. In BSG: B&C Kirby's son is named Anslem. the script writer for BSG: B&C also wrote the DS9 episode 'The Visitor", where "Anslem" is the title of Jake Sisko's first novel.

Right. But the combination of those six letters is hardly a coincidence...

Whatever they say! I'm liking B&C immensely.
 
A lot of names in BSG seem to come from old religions and cultures. Legend is that Djerba is the island where Odysseus encountered the Lotus Eaters. Which might be a clue about the next couple of episodes.

Loving the latest installment.
The Osiris is an awfully pretty looking ship aswell! That's three things I'm eyeing from the show. The pistol and classified orders being the other two. :)

The episodes end so quick! I love/hate being left hanging on the edge of my seat!
