My Own Private Kentucky
The musings, diatribes and outtakes from my life in Louisville, KY and Redwood City, CA. This is my third attempt at blogging; an attempt to keep in touch with friends around the world and a showcase for my burgeoning photographic skills. I take thousands of photos and show 10% of them. Like any treasure hunt, you search through tons of dirt before you find a jewel- tell me when you find one. And yes, that is Louisville above; a city of uniqueness in both architecture and persons.

Battlestar Galactica: RAZOR


Last night was the premiere of Battlestar Galactica's Short movie RAZOR. It was excellent!!

The film sets the opening sequence for the fourth and last season of one of the best Dramas, not to be labeled scifi, on television through a series of flashbacks. This is the first television example of a science fiction opera, a term given to hard science fiction books that revolve more around the people and story board than the use of technology to give a story a backbone. While it does mimic the general outline of the original series, the cinematography, the storyboard, and the musical score are better than most major films. Of the notable bonuses was the revelation that one of the characters in the last season had a lesbian affair with a cylon!!

And it had a GLAAD ad at the end. Kudos to NBC (owner of the SciFi channel)- though I don't ever remember seeing a GLAAD ad during any episode of Will and Grace.
