The original series also had the beings of lights, which had teh magic powerz. They were essentially the original Q/Ascended Ancients/etc.

Edward Olmos said the minute they put any kind of bug eyed alien crap into the story, he was quitting. I doubt we'll see them :P

The beings of light werent really aliens, and they definately were not bug eyed. They were essentially angels, and I've heard some of the characters claim to be angels (Head Six and Head Leoben come to mind).

I think the Cylons are already at Earth and they started monotheism there. When the fleet gets to Earth, I hope they're ready for an inquisition!

Well, I hope the Earth they are going to isn't current day Earth. They're not gonna find much help in the war against the Cylons with our space shuttles.

that can explain how the cylons tried to steal humanity role as the sons of god. That part always confused me, back in season 1, when the preacher was in jail.

However it is doubtful since it does not explain how some cylons were susceptible to the human virus and how other were not.

What confuses me about the whole Earth having battlestars is wouldnt earth follow a completely different technological path than the 12 colonies. Why would Earth have battlestars that look exactly like the 12 colonies battlestars. ALways annoys me when I see a story about a race that shoots people off into space and then they are at the same technological level when they meet back up. Same thing happened in Starcraft when the UED showed up. Useing the same battlecruisers as the Confederacy. One of my pet peeves I guess.

heh Watch the Galactica jump into Earth orbit and get hailed by the Enterprise.

Ionsniper · 04-07-2008, 08:36 PM

lol wolfen. Funny thing is I can see the video popping up on youtube sometime after they do get there.

LOL that would own.

Let's hope they are that lucky! The Enterprise would make short work of the Cylons for sure.

Malakriss · 04-08-2008, 06:41 AM

There would be some intriguing moments if the Cylons ever encountered Data or the Borg.

I don't think they'll encounter Earth in a super advanced time, probably either similar or a small amount of progression forward. Either that or Earth will be nothing but ruins and an important last message of wisdom.

If they spent their entire budget on the opening battle, it was worth it. Good stuff.
