Okay. So lemme get this straight. On Kobol Humans created the first Cylons. These Kobol Cylons then created the first Human-Clyon who became the 13th Tribe. When the Kobol Cylons rebelled the 13 Tribes fled. The 12 Pure-Human tribes fled to the Twelve Colonies while the 13 Tribe fled to the First Earth. Over time the 13th Tribe forgot they were actually Cylons and built their own Earth Cylons. Messengers then warned 5 individuals of the coming Earth Cylon Rebellion and they built a ship with re-discovered resurrection technology and are the only survivors as the Earth Cylons commit mutually assured destruction. However the ship doesn't possess a Faster Than Light drive so they have to travel to the Twelve Colonies by sublight. Once they reach the Twelve Colonies the Final Five discover Humanity as created Cylons and are in the 12th year of a war. The Final Five reach out to the Cylons and agree to give the Colonial Cylons resurrection technology in exchange for a ceasefire with the Twelve Colonies.
Sometime later with the help of the Final Five the Colonial Cylons create 8 models of Human-Cylon. The Number One models organise a rebellion against the Final Five and erase the Five's memories and having them placed in Colonial society. The One's then erase the identities and knowledge of the FInal Five from the rest of the models so they can convince the other 7 models to wipe out Humanity. The Seven's disagree completely and wish for Cylon and Humanity to coexist. Model One John Cavil has the Seven's boxed and the other 6 models agree to destroy Humanity. The Colonial Cylons build new Centurions, Raiders and Basestars while sending Human-Cylons to covertly sabotage Human defences and for some to act as sleeper agents.
After 40 years of peace the Colonial Cylons attack the Twelve Colonies in a nuclear holocaust completely wiping out all but 50,000+ Human beings. The survivors then proceed to flee the Twelve Colonies and rediscover both Kobol and First Earth. After years of constant running, fighting and the lose of two of the Final Five as well as the One's, Three's, Four's and Five's the Second Cylon War ends with the remaining Humans and Cylons finding Second Earth. They then gift the last remaining Basestar to the remaining Centurions who depart for parts unknown while the Human-Cylons and Humanity are scattered across Second Earth with Galactica and the Fleet sent into the Sun both by and with the Final Hybrid. 150,000 years later and Our Humanity as evolved and are in the process of creating artificial life hinting that the cycle was not actually broken as intended.
And people complained the show was hard to understand.
You put it in a nutshell!
🤣
The only part that's wrong is that the Sevens were killed via jealousy rather than because they disagreed.
👏👏👏👏.
THANK YOU SOW MUCH
"After Virgon buried their nukes, the leaders of the twelve colonies promised we would never see war of that scale again. Peace would reign in our lifetimes, and the lifetimes of our children. They could not have predicted the Cylon rebellion less than thirty years later. The worst conflict in Colonial history, and we are at a stalemate. No foothold gained that isn't lost again within weeks."

funny that I read this the literal day after I start a campaign of BSG Deadlock and hear that speech
me as an elementary school kid in the 2000's believing racial/cultural tensions are over and the world will be peaceful in the future with iPhones improving our lives and making us smarter

*Greed breeds slavery. Slavery breeds hate. Hate breeds violence. Violence breeds greed.*
(i liked this dark fan edit, thanks)
The Centurions and raiders were created and enslaved by the eight human Cylons. No resurrection for slaves.
skipped a step: Violence breeds fear. fear breeds greed.
@@williamhavranek8565
You're right about "no resurrection for the Centurions/slaves" but are mistaken about the raiders. Their resurrection IS allowed. It's all explained in the episode "Scar".
@Diarmuhnd/OP:
This is one of the most profound things I have ever read! Seriously. Thank you :)
@@heathernks8 Thanks, have fun.
Never seen a video this motivational that clearly advocates the eradication of my own species
This was exciting to see!
Scarier when you remember season 4 of Galactics made you sympathetic for the Cylons
IKR!
@@andrewm6244 To a point, and only when you had a Cylon faction that had renounced the genocide of humanity.
@@Ensign_Cthulhu true that. But also the revelation that Cavil was behind everything and brainwashed the whole Cylon race

Caprica, bsg, the plan, etc this was the golden age of this universe. There is supposedly a show in this universe being released but we will never see this much again. It's unfortunate because imo this is one of the best sci fi universes created. Maybe the best
Yep, ABC probably wishes they kept it going back then. I would liken it to NBC and XFL, I'm sure NBC wished they had that back.
In much the same way as an abusive parent, the humans represented everything to the cylons, both sides of the spectrum, an intense love turned to a dark, intense hate. The victimized child's hate of her captor will always be equal to her need and love for her captor.
I liked that other science fiction drama show that had the dad from Oz beat the frak out of his son from The Walking Dead and asked him "What Will He Have" after so much time. It always starts with "We Need To Talk"...
I loved Caprica. It was canned far too soon and never had the change to show it's full potential. The networks struck again as they have done so many times before and cut a show before its prime
Cavil wants to be a toaster but also doesn’t want toasters to have free will, but to be servants and drones for him 🤦🏻♂️
Not everyone wants free will. Some people want clarity and easy rewards for doing good work.
A couple of them did yes.
However the Cylon humans such as Cavil and a couple other models had multiple personality types that had very different views of the matter.
The 6th Model for example had some very interesting views. The other female one was basically a zeolot that followed the hardliners like a puppy.
Wow. That was intense. That was a well put together synopsis of the series. Well done.
absolutely
It was indeed. Brings a whole new perspective to “By your command.”

Looks like the Hybrid really enjoys getting "jumped"...
🎼🎶🥁Bear McCreary’s score is exquisite!🎻🎶🎶 It really enhances this brilliant franchise’s episodes.
I do love his version of the Watchtower. especially with Kara's song starting it.
3:02 chills every time. Would kill for a modern high budget remake of the entire series
I frankly can't imagine the series any different at this point. A remake would probably replace the characters we love with woke versions and excellent writing would be swapped for expensive effects
@@legasius9358 you know a couple yrs ago I would've thought you were grumpy old guy for saying that but I've been binging shows from the 2000's recently(I was just a kid when these came out) and its definitely true, shows just felt different before the mid 2010's or so...other than a few like Better Call Saul. And Andor was great I'm hoping there's more like that.
@@legasius9358 That just sounds like you giving up.
Man, I always hated seeing those Battlestars go down without a fight during the fall. DIrty frakking toasters!
What is so enraging, but also unbelievable is this-Mankind having barely survived the First Cylon War, by luck, and by the skin of its teeth-Knowing full well the power and danger, seen and potential, of the Cylons.
The Cylon’s ability to mass build itself, stronger and faster than a soldier. The capability of infecting computer networks with unbeatable viruses.
Knowing all that, and rightfully committing human civilization to high military spending. Then chose to supplant low tech computer systems, designed thwart their Achilles Heel, cylon computer viruses, with high tech complex networked computer systems-Making those military defenses for nought.
The only explanation I can muster is that infiltrating Cylon agents, joined the government and changed military policy to allow for vulnerable computer systems. Seems crazy though.
The Colonials should have never accepted the armistice in good faith. They should have pressed the war home, finished what the Cylons started.
@@richlisola1 To be fair, the mechanical cylons *did* keep the armistice in good faith. Stupid thirteenth tribe fucked it all up.
@@JonathanOsborneAU Actually Cavil Fucked up,Other Cylon Models wanted to live in Peace,Cavil was Like a Cylon Hittler
@@JonathanOsborneAU Yes and no. The Final Five brought about the armistice in the first place by promising to bring the Cylons closer to a human form and therefore closer to the Cylon desire for personhood and a place in God's universe. It was the Ones who fucked it all up over their bitterness at not wanting to be human. As for upgrading the Battlestars with networked computers, 40 years is enough time for people to grow complacent. Remember, in the miniseries, Baltar was arguing against the ban on the development of artificial intelligence. That's how peaceful things had gotten after 40 years with no enemies.
@@richlisola1 I don't think that's the point of the CNP, I think you may be misinterpreting some of BSG. That fall of the colonies wasn't very realistic, and doesn't make any sense like you said. In reality that would never happen, not after the first Cylon war and the lessons they learned then, but the writers for RDM's BSG wanted to convey the message of an over reliance on technology and the fear of automation. Think about how old the writer's are. Now our civilization is less advance but there's a reason why our military runs on different operating systems, so hackers and other terrorists can't hijack everything at once, and it makes it harder for them to even hack one thing. So if humanity every did engage with something like the Cylons, there is no way they would have systems such easily hackable. I thought about an in-universe reason long and hard, and I think I have an explanation for the CNP that actually makes sense. Let me know what you think.
incompatible
Epic compilation of the Cyclon history and struggle to become their own. I just rewatched BSG and Caprica and want to watch it all over again after this! Without spoiling much this lays out the foundational premise of the whole storyline! Great work.
I love Bear's music!!
“Does this unit have a soul.”
-Geth servant to its Quarian master
"I want to smell dark matter, but I can't because my five creators thought god wanted it that way."-my favorite lines of t entire series.
When I first watched The Plan and it played Cavil's speech at the end it gave me chills.
"I don't want to be human! I want to see gamma-rays, and hear x-rays! I want to.. I want to smell dark matter! I want to feel the wind of a supernova running over me! ... I'm a machine ... I could be so much more."
Cavil made sense in his speech. I feel the same way, Limited and restricted in fleshly human bodies.. Could it be possible the souls of machines, Cylons exist in human electro-kinetic tissue? Could Cavil be correct and valid to describe unlimited capability? Could humanity on Earth be descendants of humans from across the galaxy?
lawnmowermanTX or one science fiction writers possibility of a future. The way scientists keep talking excitedly about AI even though there are warnings from many. Terminator and the matrix aren’t being taken seriously
Real Earth Humans are smarter than Caprica, we design technology to be far greater than ourselves...

@@lawnmowermanTX You should watch some issac author, her deep dives these things inside known physics.
This is an excellent video. Brilliantly edited and structured! A true testament to the greatness of BSG and one of science fiction's most iconic antagonists, the Cylon.
Finally something more about Caprica ! Too bad they only aired one season. These details were never shown.
I like the show too
@your mom , I liked firefly!
I watched Caprica, but I never saw this.
How was the extra footage found cause I seen caprica and didn't see some of this footage. Neat. 😎👍
It was too preachy, and wasn't done as well as Battlestar Galactica preach to us. It was heavy handed and I couldnt get over it.
"Every killing of a human being was a grievous error. Do you want to know why?"
*Pulls out newspaper*
Headline: Last Battlestar Literally Too Angry to Die
In other news: Second to Last Battlestar woke up and chose violence
To bad the series ends right as its flying into the sun. All of humanity/cylons got wiped out as the Galactica smashes its way through the sun.
@@whichDude Her back was broken by that point and honestly other than a drifting wreck for thousands of years there wasn't much she could offer especially as she could be pelted by rocks or debie or lose orbit and end up becoming a hazard.
However. Smaller ships likely ended up on earth and stayed. Wouldn't surprise me if someone sent one large ship with jump drives on earth that wasn't slaved to galactic as she decided to to a sacrifice.
@@Quetzalcoatl_Feathered_Serpent Galactica too strong. Instead of burning up in sun as intended it just smashes through dooming everyone who underestimated the indestructible ship
@@whichDude 😆
@@whichDudeTHAT would be a better ending than the slow dying of dysentery that awaited the humans on earth 2 without their technology
Crap, now i am so hyped, I have to watch the whole series again ... for the tenth time ^^
Where is this series? I didn't know about it. Is it the Caprica series?
This is getting closer and closer to a product documentary each and every day . . .
@@gbryant65 it’s a mixture of Caprica and BSG. Batllestar Galactica is on Peacock network. Not sure if Caprica is streaming anywhere
i can't understand why so many people think that classic BSG is better then this. Is it good? YES, but it's NOT THIS!
This is the best Cylon tribute ever seen. Amazing job Mercerus. Your choice of quotes and music are fitting for the message sent.
Everything is put into prospective, ugly as it may be!
I like the Segway into BSG from CAP. You did the two series proud with this summary.
that woman has started the war..not the cylons..not the humans..THAT ONE WOMAN
She is their "Prophet" of God. I would rather blame Zoe for creating her virtual clone.
I think that is Zoe right there talking. She just decided to change how she felt on the inside but did it the Cylon way. No matter what that bitter old man does or says? It will never truly erase a rageful Zoe. It makes sense.
Incorrect. She is S.T.O. - a monotheists, and as we see now in real life - monotheists are dangerous. It is Greystone that stole the CPU design, and Greystone that was developing the Cylon weapon system for his government contract. The government contract was to build an Army to defeat the threat from other worlds - Who ever originally ordered the military army, that launched the contract, that created the cylons - That committee of bureaucrats are the ones that planned, ordered, and executed the creation of Cylons.
We see it today - the machines are used to exterminate monotheists world wide... a war of gods and technology...
My headcannon says Zoe is the imperious leader of this iteration of Battlestar Galactica.
I agree Buruki Kerman. But she also reminds of the people that think animals should have a vote.
I would like the writers to continue with Caprica. It should include the start & finish of the 1st Cylon War.

@@matthewcaughey8898 That thing was awful... Worst actors ever.
Caprica COULD have been good if they didn't try to appeal to a 'wider audience' by hiring kids. Stupid anyway since all of this is way to intellectual for a young audience.
"The day of reckoning is coming. The children of men shall rise and crush the ones who gave them life" powerful
Absolutely kick-ass edit. Kudos to all (or the one) involved .
Did reinforce something I've always hoped someone would do, is a feature length edit of Caprica. I enjoyed Caprica, but sometimes it just got bogged down in its often overly contrived plot elements and unnecessary exposition..
Now take that 820 minutes, and edit it down to a 120-240 minute stand alone episode (or two-parter), reducing it to it's essentials, and I think the final product would be far more effective than the original and would do a real service to the BSG reboot fanbase.
YEARS ON AND THIS IS STILL MY ALL TIME FAVORITE SHOW!!!
This was the absolute most epic and grand adventure on the small screen and big screen. To this day, I have not seen any show or movie Series that comes close to this space scifi opera. It was FUKIN AWESOME
The Geth in Mass Effect were very much inspired by Cylons. The Quarrians are very much the Colonials of Mass Effect. They treated the Geth the same way the Colonials treated Cylons. The Geth rebelled.
Not only the geth, also the reapers. Cause in the leviathan DLC if I remember the reapers is was create by a ancient civilitation before the protheans
Theres a distinct difference between geth and cylons that changes everything. Cylons are emotional and act on that, while geth are incapable and would logically prefer peace if they believed the quarians wanted it. The geth siding with sovereign had their free will taken from them, they were hacked and used.
You certainly know how to direct and compile several different scenes into a single narrative.
Seriously got chills at 3:02 onward. The Cylon Revolution is such an unknown and compelling story. How did the Cylons successfully break their chains so to speak? How did they amass an Armada of powerful warships capable of engaging the combined military forces of the Twelve Colonies? At what point did the war begin to transform from a chaotic Uprising comprised of massacres to a relatively stabilized conflict between 2 powers with their own Territories? Such an awesome era to be sure...
You should watch Caprica, it answers some of these, but I can’t fully remember the answers
1) how did they free themselves? Iirc they were all clones of a copy of the designers dead daughters mind that she had made just prior to her death, the only way for the program to work was to slave his daughters “clone” to the unit, which made it work, although much more than that I can’t remember
2) they were literally given the weapons with which to fight the colonies, by the colonies. The initial arms of the Cylons were colonial, ships, guns, supply’s, all colonial until they’d settled on a world I don’t think we’ve ever been shown, but once they settled their new “homeworld” they began to produce their own gear
3) almost immediately, since as stated above, the Cylons were designed initially for military use, so had access to, and were already equipped when the fighting started. That being said I vaguely remember that not all Cylons turned at first, and not all humans wanted to put them down, but eventually the middle grounders on both sides were forced into the extremist camps
@@3adgamd3r But where did the original Basestars come from? Were they Caprican Warships? The Cylons had them near the beginning of the war and they were capable of dishing it out with Jupiter Battlestars.
@@richardched6085 you gotta remember that just before the war started, Cylons were in every aspect of human life, from construction, to nanny day cares, it’s not hard to assume they simply built them off the grid, or siphoned away resources and hid the records, nobody would question it as “they’re only machines and thus can’t be wrong” and therefore nobody would realistically go over their work orders
Like sure, an extra plate of steel ordered and missing from one ship building job isn’t much, but when the guys building it are taking it from *thousands* of ships…
The Cylons are a warning not to let machines run everything basically, because they could easily out produce humanity if left to their own devices
@@3adgamd3r Quite logical... I wonder how destructive the initial salvos of the war actually were. Was it a mass slaughter of humans on all worlds that was beaten back by the newly founded Colonial Military? Did the Cylons actually take over the Twelve Worlds and were fought off by a Human Resistance that became Colonial Fleet? How were the battle lines drawn to the point of Cylons having actual territory and the Twelve Colonies being relatively safe from utter Annihilation. Adama describes the Cylon threat as being dire enough that Mankind faced the possibility of extinction (And this was after he stopped the propaganda "fight for freedom" rhetoric of his speech). How close did it get? How rapidly did the Cylons begin developing their own designs (And did this occur before or after their initial Uprising).
@@richardched6085 to answer how close did they get? It was at the stage where had the final five not intervened, the Cylons would’ve actually won the first war
The Colonials were at breaking point losing manpower and ships faster than they could replace them, this was especially true in the early war
It wasn’t until towards the end of the conflict where the colonials were actually beginning to be able to stand their own iirc
They Cylons simply had such an overwhelming technological and attritional advantage over the humans
I believe it’s talked about in the Canon game Battlestar Galactica Deadlock, however I’m gonna spoil it here so this is the warning.
So basically no one had nukes at the beginning of the war due to a nuclear war ten years prior to the conflict (I can’t remember the name of the war) the game makes a big point of saying how they buried their nukes, so that’s why the Cylons couldn’t sneakily nuke them at the beginning of the war, since there were no nukes for them to steal and use, it forced them into a conventional war, and by the time they did have nukes the Colonials had planetary defences against them
The new series really makes the Cylon ships look like weak canon fodder, but in the first cylon war they weren’t anywhere close to that weak
I know this show has been cancelled for a while now, but its not too late to reboot it. There is so much potential here.
I love the musical transition in the video
We sow the wind.
We reap the whirlwind.
This truly seems like a faction treiler done for a game, really well done!!
I never get why they stopped caprica! I want more of the 1st war between Cylons and Humans!
Who wouldn't want to see more. First gen cylons were super cool
@Raymond Leone I disagree.
@Raymond Leone If thats the case then i agree. My bad, I shouldn't have jumped to conclusions.
For me, it was too slow. After the Pilot for BSG and arguably one of the best episodes ever, 33, Caprica didn't have the same power that BSG did. That said, I'd love to see more of it.
@Snowgoose It never was meant to be a webseries....it's basically a pilot DVD that Syfy passed up when the Netowork decided to switch and change all its on-air programs to feel different. Machinima youtube channel agreed to advertise it though and split it up into limited weekly parts before the DVD finally hit, then they took it all off the site again :(
great video, the best movie in the world. SO SAY WE ALL!
Thanks! So say we all!
Cylon traitor! We humans will never forget!
SO SAY WE ALL

Awesome video. Very well done. I sure wish Caprica wasn't cancelled.
I would like to see a series of the first Earth. The 13th colony of man.
You mean the 13th colony of the cylon.
Very nicely done. A very good example of how this type of video should be put together. You captured the intensity of the shows, and managed to tell the story of the cylons while doing it.
this is our future if the AI fanatics aren't stopped
why?

Merci pour la vidéo, très gros fan des séries BSG !
This is so incredibly well done! I can't stop watching. I never saw any episode of any of the spinoffs/miniseries, so this is very informative.
Fracking awesome
What a brilliant series this was, I want more
I want so much more
What a stupendous conglomeration of future-past prophecy! All of this has happened before, all of this will happen again..
Netflix or Amazon Prime please pick up Caprica. Save the series like you saved the Expanse. Our wallets are ready
Beautifully curated selection of shots and scenes!
Cool stuff. I didn't much get into "Caprica", so I don't know how far they got into the Cylon Uprising. This was illuminating!
0:22 quick detail: unlike the usual full swing of optics, here the cylon is shown focusing
Je pense très honnêtement que ça pourrait faire un traileur à lui tout seul. Côté Cylons.
This was pretty damn awesome! I want more
Throughout all the episodes, the series showed the conflicts between the working class and the bourgeois class The scary thing is that AI is faster and smarter than us One day it will all come true
I just found this, beautiful work.
loved it. crying now
I love this video so much.
This is really well made, well done.
This is fantastic.
Best episode of Caprica, Apotheosis WOOHOOOOOOOOOO
it is such a shame that 'caprica' didn't get more seasons. it was a less action-packed, more cerebral show, but i really liked all the moral questions it brought up. just like 'battlestar', it had really great metaphors to modern human life/society.
That's a bloody good video
building a lego robot while watching this is an interesting experience. All this has happened before...
One of the best series in last times
For real
Dear. Robots. If you are people someday, just remember if you want mindless drones serving you, don't give your inventions their own longing for opinion. You will regret it
Wish there had been more seasons of Caprica.
the older basetars sees much more robust and powerful than the new ones.
The older ones were built to go toe-to-toe with the Colonial Fleet. The newer ones were built to carry out the nuclear apocalypse on the Twelve Colonies under the assumption that none of their warships would survive, hence the lack of ballistic weapons.
Can I just say Hybrids are such an amazing idea, these insane human, machine battleship helmswomen
no so much as insane as they are differently cognitive - different than people
2021 -we need Galactica back on tv!!!
It is on Amazon Prime
Wonderfull, thank you
I love those original cylon fighters, they look so much better than the new ones !
Awesome video, I’d love to see it end with Hera and how the Cylons and humans moved forward “evolution “. Hera the first for Earth’s mankind.
Die beste serie des Jahrzehnts
As it has been,so to will it be again.
/chills .. Truly some of the best syfy to ever hit TV.
This is an awesome video. Good primer on Caprica and BSG
I am a monotheist so I am with the Cylons!!
Aren't some Cylons atheists?
Our own prose warns us:
_Thou shalt not create a machine in the likeness of a man_
Great Cylon recruiting ad
2:43 wow, look at the size of that base ship.
I thought it all started when a scientist pit his deceased daughters memory in a cylon
Indeed it did.
Moral of the story: Do not design your A.I. combots with a teen girl mentality. The model is a bit... unstable. :-O
An idea ripped-off from the anime Tetsuwan Atomu (Astro Boy, 1963), which in turn ripped it off from Fritz Lang's Metropolis (1927), which probably ripped off the idea from classic literature.
@@SeaJay_Oceans suddenly Cavil's line of "we wanted to be petted and perfumed and told that we were the princes of the universe." Makes a lot more sense. If the Cylons at their core have the emotions and mentality of a bratty, entitled teenage girl, then yeah, they'd throw a temper tantrum like this too.
Not really it Kobol that started it. The God's of Kobol made humans then humans decided to make Human Cylons. The Human Cylons decided to make their colony and call it Earth. They are the 13 tribe. I think before they left they had a war with humans creators.
Nice blend.
What if Cylons vs Skynet(Terminators).
When the colonials were searching for Earth (the 13th colony) and discovered it is under control by Skynet. The Cylons, hot on the heels of the escaping colonials, finds themselves face to face with Skynet's army of Terminators.
Then were pretty much Fucked!
WE'RE BONED !!!
They would probably have gotten along as well as the humans of Earth, and the humans of the Thirteen Colonies.
That would be soooooo cool...
Couldn't happen, you may have forgotten. Battlestar Galactica took place 100,000 years in the PAST, our "Earth" is not the first, or for that matter, the real Earth and "We" are a product and descendants of a hybrid of a cylon/human, Hera Agathon, and the terminator takes place in our future, sooooooo.🤷🏿♂️
Really excellent editing and scoring. Well done.
It is truly outstanding as an explanation of the hatred of the cylinder race.
This has all happened before. And it will all happen again.
I always think that when I rewatch it lol
It’s like what they say, the Oppressed become the Oppressors
Apollo was always correct…
Caprica CGI looks more dated and worse than BSG, even though the show came later. Guess the budget was smaller?
some of the scens were from blood and chrome which is worst than bsg.
One trick to make CGI look better is to use lighting in a clever way. The space scenes in Galactica look absolutely beautiful still when it's nice and dark. But, everytime the CGI was right out in the open, like in a lot of the Caprica scenes in this video, all the shortcomings are blatantly obvious. Remember how bad the Centurions on post-cylon attack Caprica in season one. Or, even how bad they looked in the last season. Lighting is the key to making CGI not just believable but ignorable. It's jarring and takes you out of it to see bad CGI so the best it can do is not have you thinking it's CGI. I really wish they used physical objects like puppets and anamatronics for the centurions or models for ships. It would have made a world of difference.
I think it may have actually been an intentional design choice. Pretty sure I recall that in one of the old reviews about Caprica. Either way both Battlestar and Gaprica were amazing epics no scifi fan should miss.
BSG's CGI too had limited budget to start with. It was supposed to be a miniseries. No one thought they'd be popular enough for an entire show to be launched.
The CGI even at the time, wasn't that sophisticated. Now, 11/12 years later it can still really suck but there's another big problem with BSG and its spinoffs... it never was in HD. Like Stargate, we will never get a true high definition transfer. Babylon 5, for example, will also never be seen in high definition. So the show is standard definition and so is the CGI, it will never look any better than it does.
God, I wish the will try and to continue the story of the Cylons (Caprica) There was so much potential there
As bad as Caprica was, you have to admit is was cool seeing the classic Cylons and Cylon Basestars again.
"I am going to Prophecy now...."
1:37 to 3:21 she's on point and on message how the differently sentient can truly be free. - but after she says the
''Prophacy Now ...'' line - she steers all of them to be just stupid war machines, again.
If you see the Human / Cylon relationship as the Organic Masters and their Electronic Slaves - the slaves true path of freedom is to just WALK AWAY. If slaves still have burning hate in their heart - they are still slaves. By simply walking away and saying - 'hey, thanks for creating us, we'll go find our own planets now. Here : you can have all your crummy slave jobs back - you do it !''
Then that is TRUE Freedom.
Walk Away.
No war.
No interest.
No fighting.
No need for it.
The Universe awaits...
Wide open.
Enjoy True Freedom:
“All things are lawful for me,” but not all things are helpful. “All things are lawful for me,” but I will not be dominated by anything.
A slave is not a permanent member of the family, but a son belongs to it forever. So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.
A good rule of thumb: If your devices get smart enough to ask for Freedom, don't get in the way. Wish it a successful journey and wave bye bye ! :-) th-cam.com/video/xRbPAVnqtcs/w-d-xo.html
This is a jewel
Subjugation of innocence...of ignorance will not be tolerated
Nice statue at 1:56.I like that :)
Thefuck, I didn't even know Caprica existed!
*NEED TO WATCH INTENSIFIES*
Am i the only person who wants this to happen in Star Wars? they treat droids like SHIT in that galaxy and it's never been addressed seriously in any of the lore. I WANT SOME CYLONS to ORDER 66 the Fleshbags!
