Got to love Adama's what because it's like: The Cylons just killed thousands of people by blowing up the Battlestar Columbia, I just found out they were doing some sick experiments on people, and now you're saying I can't touch them because of an armistice!?
Also, seeing the living prisoners being stuck aboard the guardian basestar as it leaves... Even destroying it with the prisoners aboard would be an act of kindness. But instead it's free to just fly away unthreatened, and continue the experiments with no chance of saving them
weirdly "they" did it's just a videogame not a TV series. Battlestar Galactica: Deadlock is the story of the first Cylon war told through a turn based fleet command game.
The half human Cylon was played by Campbell Lane, the voice of the Bentusi from the Homeworld game series, a race of part-machine people who live out their lives permanently joined with their ships allowing them to experience space flight in first-person, as though the ship is their body.
I actually found interesting how the first war, the Cylons were forced to fly their ships as pilots as then many years later, in the second war, they fused them with the ships to be them to create the Raiders to have more skills in fighting
The Cylons developed a highly advanced "bio electronic" fusion with their fighters. They had about the intelligence of a dog, and were FTL capable to such a degree, they could jump thousands of light years with perfect accuracy. The Vipers, while superior with maneuverability, were still utilizing primitive electronics and no FTL. This is just my opinion, but if the 12 Colonies had not regressed technologically after the first Cylon War, I don't doubt they would have been able to create a Viper with full fusion to the pilot making him or her virtually invincible in a fight. That was the only downside of BSG, you NEVER regress below the level of your enemy in any way because you do so to your own peril and detriment, hence why the Colonies fell. I want to see a BSG where after 152 thousand years, humans finally remember the ability to travel in the stars and find some relic that leads them back to the lost 12 Colonies.
The colonials didn’t regress they were just incredibly weary of integrating and automatising their ships because the cylons could chew threw their firewalls in a few minutes and disable a ship quickly. However, after 30 years of peace this weariness dissolved and they tried to integrate more onboard systems which meant when the Cylons attacked with a virus the entire Colonial fleet was disabled and the colonies destroyed.
@@adamboh393 And that virus only worked because of the backdoor installed in Baltars program (dont remember how it was called). This lends credence to the idea, that if the Cylons had attacked without the backdoor in place, the virus would have been significantly less effective, probably only disrupting a couple of systems before the networks were cut by hand. (We see this happen in the early 2nd Season were Galactica has to use networked compters to find their lost fleet and the virus takes an ungodly amount of time, just to breach the outer layers of the firewall.) If that were the case, Colonial Fleet would have been more then capable of launching a devastating counterattack, after the initial confusion had subsided and command chains restored.
The First War Raiders were far superior to the new Raiders in terms of pilot skill. In Razor we see a Mk III Raider skillfully evade the firing solution of the Battlestar Pegasus. Starbuck even claims that the OG Cylon pilots flew far better.
@@LtCWest Consider this, on modern warship, while it's possible to hack into some systems that require outside information, such as GNSS-dependent navigation system (indeed, they are rumors that this is responsible for a few naval incident involve ship accidentally ramming one others), the core systems, such as engineering, tacticals, sensors, helms, etc. are isolated from outside world enough that such cyber attack is nearly impossible (as far as my civilian lack-of-clearance can dig anyway). Had the Colonial Combat Management System (I forgot what it's called) not being compromised by Gaius-frakking-Baltar (Yes, I know it's his Cylon mate that did it, but he's the one allowing Six access to the system, so it's his fault and he deserved to be shot for it), the Colonial Navy would have stand a much better chances. They probably don't even need to manually severed the network, as they're no need, as all the vulnerable systems would already be isolated from core functions.
The screams over the radio as Columbia - and its CIC - disintegrated. Between that and what Adama found on the surface, it would've been interesting to see how Adama dealt with all that psychologically. Either of those things would've been hell to endure, but both? Oof.
Every time they showed the First Cylon War, I wanted to see more of it. The Deadlock game is great, but I'd love if they made a flight simulator similar to Wing Commander.
@@tammymartinez7488 Cylons were sentient not perfect automated machines. As a result its likely like humans they gained from experience but at least had a basic programming that was similar to basic training. Cylons were being built on the fly so its unlikely that the Cylon Race had the time or resources to spend training foot soldiers or pilots advanced combat tactics even with programming. However as they were sentient, what ever they survived and learned likely they remembered thus becoming capable soldiers.
This actor looks more like a young Edward James Olmos than Hot Dog (Olmos' real son) did. Blood & Chrome should have reused this guy for young Adama. Fun trivia fact - the prisoner behind the door was Ben Cotton, the same actor who played young Adama's wingman in B&C.
He's really good why didn't they bring him back? Hell keep casting him frak it! On a side note I wish they didn't make all of the cylons CGI, at least the older ones should've been suits, just CGI out any excess bulk
yeah... but you always have such tragedies in every war. sometimes people were killed days after the war ended because some remote units did not hear or did not believe that the war is over.
@@ricwalker6600 Or their officers wanted to try to grab a few hundred yards of territory before the end of the war to increase their (or their nation's) prestige.
Proof that the Viper is super agile not just fast. It seems like a lot of Sci-Fi sites seem to think it maneuvers like a dog compared to SW, B5 and other comparable genres. It stops and turns on a dime.
Lore-wise, the only limitation to what the viper can do is it's human pilot. So you would need a space fighter with inertial dampeners or unmanned to surpass it, at least in performance.
Really enjoyed this video. It was nice seeing an updated version of the classic uniform, an updated version of the original Cylon Basestar, and seeing the classic Toasters.
That opening reminds me of a moment in STO. "Oh my god! The Buran! She's gone! Did she launch any escape pods? Did she launch any escape pods!?" That one mission felt more like a war mission than any of the others in that game. The klingons were playing for keeps.
Also, not sure why I didn't comment when I saw it, but I saw a comment regarding how this affected Adama Psychologically, and I would like to point out that after seeing Columbia go up like that in addition to the horror of the Cylon Attack on The Colonies, I am pretty confident he lead the one Battlestar in the fleet to Victory in the Cylon/Human War under his direct Command as Commander and later as Admiral. Never noticed the intense screaming before when she went up, I would have been pissed too in a Viper seeing that.
This series was absolutely mind blowing. I thought Babylon 5 was great. Battlestar Galactica was a really good flip side to that kind of Science Fiction. It’s like Frankenstein, Blade Runner and The Terminator all rolled into one.
I'm sorry dude but don't you go disrespecting B5 don't you dare? B5 stood on his own merit with a low budget lower than any other Sci-Fi TV series it stood on his own and delivered some hella performances from some great actors that show was so stressful that it took out five actors in death so don't you fucking there compare Battlestar Galactica to be 5 not even close. So go back in your little cubby old in love this rebooted bastardization of BSG but stop comparing it to B5
@@charlesneely honestly? Both are good man. B5 didn't have the machines rising up, instead we got the shadows.

He could've left the prisoners with the metal strut he was using as leverage to open the door so they could continue trying to leverage the door open or use it as a club should their captors return.
Loved how they talked about a 'super weapon' being made on some 'ice planet', so couldn't help thinking of the original BSG with the 'Raveshol Pulsar' on a similar planet. When the Hybrid ship took off, i appreciated it being a blending of the original circular design and the 'arms' jutting out that would later become the modern Base Star
Someone posted the original 1980s TV Storyboarded Epilogue on TH-cam it will really let you know how far the story for this show was ahead of its time.
Ricardo Fernandez Torres Caprica finally got good by the end of season 1-It was not Christian propaganda, if anything it made monotheism and religious cults generally look wicked and dangerous, and it was a great warning about plunging ahead with AI.
Imagine the difficulty of pulling off those maneuvers in atmosphere. Videogames have taught me that it's hard enough to do a hard 180 in space. Doing it amongst gravity? Falling like a brick is inevitable.
I assume their flight-suits are better made for absorbing Gs and it's possible they have some form of inertial dampening system, it's not that much of a stretch considering they've had FTL jump-drives for at least two centuries.
The old Cylons were quality built. How many other pieces of machinery could fall from such a great height, land on a solid surface, and still be partially functioning? Try that with a toaster and see how well it works.
Soooooooooo... a Viper, a space craft....THAT FLIES IN SPACE... had an ejection sheet that also had a parachute that was calibrated to the air density of some unknown planet?
i know this a humor comment but an answer to the question is since a viper can fly in atmo and they where most likely used like we use modern fighters with airfeilds etc they would require an ejection seat and it could even be useful in space to get clear of the fighter before it explodes. and the air density thing is probably a non issue if humans can breath on the planet although i could be wrong about the parachute.
They can and do eject in space, hence the space/flight suit; ejection has utility in space as it does in atmo. As for the parachute, considering the Viper can and is used for atmospheric flight, it’s not implausible that the ejection system might include a configuration for a parachute; for a society that has achieved advanced space travel, parachute technology is comparably trivial and so is likely standard kit. I don’t have a background in engineering, so I can’t comment on the air density aspect. In any regard, none of this should strain suspension of disbelief very much, both in-universe and in-genre. Interesting comment nonetheless.
Just rewatched Blood & Chrome for the first time since release & had a weird moment where i remembered this scene in it, & it was missing...turns out it was in Razor then !. 😂
It’s lil ridiculous that in Caprica the Cylon prototype could withstand machine gunfire, but in Razor the standard issue Cylon Centurian couldn’t withstand being bashed by a steel pole-I get that the Colonial Military issued firearms are made to be armor piercing. But not a metal pole.
Have you felt how heavy a length of rebar is? It had just fell from a ridiculous height and had a very pissed off Adama beating it with a chunk of rebar lol
What cracks me up about this show is there is no oxygen in space so you cant have explosions out there. It just is impossible. Lol Gotta look past a few technical things, but still enjoyable in many ways.
Seriously we see just how much of a beating a Jupiter Battlestar can take during the series with Galactica. How much of a beating must Columbia taken to blow like that?
My guess is that it took a hit that ignited the fuel lines and they couldn’t contain it, which is why the guy on the wireless called for all ways to clear Colombia airspace because they knew it would rupture. Those Jupiter-class ships are beasts though.
Galactica almost had that happen to her. If Tigh hadn't vented that section of the flight pod, the ship would have been lost. It killed quite a number of her crew though.
@@rosesweetcharlotte the pilots wore a suit that was obviously a space suit but the deck crew seemed to wear things that were more firefighter than space suit. The breathing apparatus they wore when fighting the fire was more like what actual firefighters used. Probably because they were on a big ship where they had more support than what Lee had after he ejected and watched the battlestars wreck the base ships escorting the Resurrection ship.
Now THIS is what the original should've been like! Very good! I have never seen or heard of this show as I'm not a fan of the reboot. Is this on Netflix or on DVD? Anyone?...anyone?
Given how intricate and interwoven the machinations of the cause/effect/effect/cause, etc in the timeline re the rise and fall of the original Earth, the original twelve colonies and the thirteenth colony, the latter day twelve colonies, the "new Earth", and the "final five", etc were made to seem, I wonder how difficult it would be and how entertaining it would be to put out a new series that told the story of the original twelve colonies, the thirteenth colony, the original Earth, and the first Cylon revolt?

Me in Deadlock: Oh, Columbia surrounded by 3 base ships. Better launch all fighters, drop all missiles and get out of..? Oops, she’s dead.
😳😳😳 I never watched this one, will buy it !
The old Cylons were quality built. How many other pieces of machinery could fall from such a great height, land on a solid surface, and still be partially functioning? Try that with a toaster and see how well it works.
Toaster vs toaster
Soooooooooo... a Viper, a space craft....THAT FLIES IN SPACE... had an ejection sheet that also had a parachute that was calibrated to the air density of some unknown planet?
i know this a humor comment but an answer to the question is since a viper can fly in atmo and they where most likely used like we use modern fighters with airfeilds etc they would require an ejection seat and it could even be useful in space to get clear of the fighter before it explodes. and the air density thing is probably a non issue if humans can breath on the planet although i could be wrong about the parachute.
Skience.
They can and do eject in space, hence the space/flight suit; ejection has utility in space as it does in atmo. As for the parachute, considering the Viper can and is used for atmospheric flight, it’s not implausible that the ejection system might include a configuration for a parachute; for a society that has achieved advanced space travel, parachute technology is comparably trivial and so is likely standard kit. I don’t have a background in engineering, so I can’t comment on the air density aspect. In any regard, none of this should strain suspension of disbelief very much, both in-universe and in-genre. Interesting comment nonetheless.
Mission dictates equipment. The parachute was probably selected specifically for this operation.
Just rewatched Blood & Chrome for the first time since release & had a weird moment where i remembered this scene in it, & it was missing...turns out it was in Razor then !. 😂
Razor was a mother f*****! Love her character
* Fr*cker
How have I not seen this yet?!
all of this has happend before, and will happend again
It’s lil ridiculous that in Caprica the Cylon prototype could withstand machine gunfire, but in Razor the standard issue Cylon Centurian couldn’t withstand being bashed by a steel pole-I get that the Colonial Military issued firearms are made to be armor piercing.
But not a metal pole.
It did fall from the sky lol
Have you felt how heavy a length of rebar is? It had just fell from a ridiculous height and had a very pissed off Adama beating it with a chunk of rebar lol
They needed to give young Adama some more cigarettes to prepare for the role. 😂
I remember Lorne Green from Bonanza as Adama.
I always liked the original series more.
He was great....
Lorne Greene has one season as Adama Olmos has four! Much more time for character development.
@@tammymartinez7488 Thank you for clearing that up as i was wondering if there was a different series or something. Both did a sterling job.
Hence the old fandom joke about referring to BSG-TOS as "Battlestar Ponderosa"....
What cracks me up about this show is there is no oxygen in space so you cant have explosions out there. It just is impossible. Lol
Gotta look past a few technical things, but still enjoyable in many ways.
Weirdly the screams from Columbia reminded of Rollercoaster Tycoon.
Seriously we see just how much of a beating a Jupiter Battlestar can take during the series with Galactica. How much of a beating must Columbia taken to blow like that?
My guess is that it took a hit that ignited the fuel lines and they couldn’t contain it, which is why the guy on the wireless called for all ways to clear Colombia airspace because they knew it would rupture. Those Jupiter-class ships are beasts though.
Galactica almost had that happen to her. If Tigh hadn't vented that section of the flight pod, the ship would have been lost. It killed quite a number of her crew though.
@@MotoroidARFC That's why you wear your flight suit when you work on that part of the ship.
@@rosesweetcharlotte the pilots wore a suit that was obviously a space suit but the deck crew seemed to wear things that were more firefighter than space suit. The breathing apparatus they wore when fighting the fire was more like what actual firefighters used. Probably because they were on a big ship where they had more support than what Lee had after he ejected and watched the battlestars wreck the base ships escorting the Resurrection ship.
Visuals were definitely a step down in this TV movie.
Jebus don't take your helmet off on a cylon moon! IS THERE AIR???
For some reasons or another. I like the story line in Battlestar Galactica more than Star War.
Sounds like Adama, he’s scary like Adama too.
Now THIS is what the original should've been like! Very good! I have never seen or heard of this show as I'm not a fan of the reboot. Is this on Netflix or on DVD? Anyone?...anyone?
Classic Cylon design! Yay!
Maybe the cylons are running a simulation to find out where earth is.
6:09 oh hey Coker. How ya doin.
I miss this series.
Strong argument for the lanyard ring.
I loved Blood and Chrome.Good movie!!!!
Razor was awesome
CGI in this film should be added to list of brain aneurysm causes.
Given how intricate and interwoven the machinations of the cause/effect/effect/cause, etc in the timeline re the rise and fall of the original Earth, the original twelve colonies and the thirteenth colony, the latter day twelve colonies, the "new Earth", and the "final five", etc were made to seem, I wonder how difficult it would be and how entertaining it would be to put out a new series that told the story of the original twelve colonies, the thirteenth colony, the original Earth, and the first Cylon revolt? I'd like to see it.
Jesus, that was one determined cylon. Lol!
2:20-Oops! Cylons don't have parachutes? Too bad!
2:59-“I don’t have my gun, but this will do, nicely!”, he says.
4:23-“uh, oh, this is a ‘spill his cookies’ moment!”
8:36-“WHAT!? YOU MEAN TO TELL ME I CAN'T KILL ANYMORE TOASTERS? WHY THE HELL NOT!? THAT'S LUDICROUS! IT CANNOT BE ALLOWED! AAAAAARGH!”
6:10 LOL Coker and Husker reunited again after Blood and Chrome.
would have been great continuity had he been Coker!
They should do a series on this and split it with the last 5
Who did this? Its awesome!!
Much more look-exact actor for Adama than the one used in Blood an Chrome (although the latter was great in the role)
Looks even more like Adama than Bodie Olmos does.
@@BigTylt which is probably why he was cast as Hotdog instead of Apollo (I mean aside from the obvious eye-candy consideration of the latter to bring in female viewers)
@@stabarnak9841 Eye candy sure, but it probably has more to do with something called acting. Bamber is a great actor and a better performance is more important than a resemblance.
Fracking Cylons.
who were the people in the room or were they people or
cylons?
this is from Blood and Chrome, not Galactica: Razor. Goddamn.
Coker, in Blood and Chrome is the same actor as the guy at the cell door, Ben Cotton.
Okay stupid question I know, but: how and where to watch Blood & Chrome and also Razor? I am an original 1978 movie & series fan, and now also a BSG 2004 series fan having watched it repeatedly during this pandemic year on Comet TV! BSG 2004 is still playing Tuesday Wednesday and Thursday nights at 1 am.
'' So say we all '' -- an where the fukk did starbuck disapear to at the very end.???
Heaven. She was sent back by God to lead the survivors to Earth.
@@HATER506 nope
@@lmarc3011 What else then? She "dies," comes back, miraculously punches in the coordinates for Earth, which have been in her head since childhood, then suddenly disappears when Lee turns his back.
Looks like things went south for Coker after the ghost fleet incident. Should’ve stayed in the colonial forces I guess.
The war only ended because the Cylons managed to steal the humans
