Trying to give fans yet another perspective on the story we already watched unfold over four seasons, we were given a look at how the Cylons planned the attacks, and what Brother Cavil Dean Stockwell was forced to do when a small band of humans in the ragtag fleet survived. This was the story I was looking forward to. A Cylon-driven story creates a lot of expectations, because we all know that we watch shows like this for the bad guys. The entire movie felt like a clip show of deleted scenes, running all over the place in time, and really providing little to tie the story together. And two highly gratuitous scenes — a full-frontal nudity scene and a senseless death — felt like cheap ways to try and make this movie gritty and shocking. At the same time, the most interesting parts of the Cylon story were cut out or not even considered for this film. I mean, look at this way. You had the Final Five who show up in the middle of the first Cylon war. They offer the Centurions evolutionary advancement in terms of resurrection and becoming more like their human creators, so the war ends.

Preview: ‘Battlestar Galactica: The Plan’ Is No ‘Razor’
Since the dawn of the internet, people have been emboldened to make comments they would probably never make in real life. In recent years, people have also been given unprecedented access to celebrities. She took the trolling in stride though, and decided she would try to appeal to the internet in her very own way. No really. Just stop. However, the dark side of the internet is that when people are anonymous online, they will often feel OK with typing things they might not do or say elsewhere. A fair amount of celebrities have felt a desire to leave or have actually left social media looking at you , Prince Harry and Meghan Markle thanks to the trolling they receive on the regular. On Battlestar Galactica , Kara Thrace was always a seemingly fit character, but Katee Sackhoff has revealed that it was only after her time on the series that she really made an effort with her body and with staying in shape.
Addendum: I'm a First Amendment liberal, so this isn't a call against the movie or the series. In fact, I thought that the movie was awesome and I'm very much hoping that the series continues to not pull punches for at least the eventual DVD versions of the episodes -- to the point of doing blurs and bleeps to keep the R-rated level in the broadcast version rather than do bowdlerized alternate takes ala certain pay cable shows. I'm also hoping that this stuff is not simply a ploy for a theatrical run in Europe ala the pilot for Stargate SG But since the content is unexpected and not labelled on the DVD, I thought it deserved a heads up. Was is Polly Walker? I'll rush right out and get if it was her. She was great in Rome, like that. A lot of nudity in the Thunderdome-in-the-Opera-House-esque V Club during the first half-hour and especially in the first five minutes.
