OK, it is ridic that it took me so long to watch this. I needed to make the huge space that it deserves in my life. and premiere it with heyiya, which happened yesterday. I have promised to wait for metatxt to watch it a second time! so there may be more *specific* flailing to come. but so far it just completely took our breath away. plus we were all like, CVM is getting so self-reflexive nobody else will be able to understand our vids. but I loved the intertextuality of it like burning, the references to our collective fanon (which is obviously RIGHT).
I know it took you forever to find the headspace to make what could seem like an "upbeat" vid after FAILNALE. but I must say I think in the end this strikes the perfect tone. it's hopeful, but it's an in-your-face hope for OUR world, the hybrid robot world, the world flying off into the sun. the ending says FU-RDM while still acknowledging what happened, that it was the future among the many possible futures. and above all I adore that Laura gets to be a Cylon in it!
it strikes me as the counterpoint to Moon vs. Sun and Order in the Sound that tells the CYLON story. and that doesn't turn away from the arc of the finale while still asserting our interpretation. it makes me feel like BSG can go on...
