TheDopp writes “The United Nations hosted the cast and crew of Battlestar Galactica Tuesday evening in New York. Clips of the show were shown as discussion points during the event, touching on the morality of Suicide Bombers in war, Abortion and the use of torture on enemies of the state. At one point during the event an attendee mentions ‘the “Old Man” launched into a passionate speech about casting off the idea of race as a cultural determinant, and said we were one race, the human race. His voice echoed throughout the chamber growing louder until ? I kid you not ? he was yelling, “So Say We All,” and the crowd answered right back. Hell, even I yelled it, I was in the fraking United Nations with Adama, the gods themselves could not have stopped this moment.’ The full video of the event is located on the UN website.”

hollyyy shit. epic…god fracking bless this show. this show soo makes me into a geek more than startrek and star wars does.
He makes a good great point here, But then blames Caucasians for creating the idea of race so they could kill everyone different… wtf?
im sure he meant to differentiate they were better. Lol as a black man i gotta stand up for the whities and say…all races do that. i doubt whities made the concept but are definetly proponents and spearheaded that shit like no ones buisness during slavery times. making us blacks like monsters cause of our different race saying we weren’t as smart, didnt have the ability to learn like whites ect…but we all get the general idea of adama’s.
Oh yea, there’s no question that it was used as an excuse for slavery. It’s just that using race as an excuse for war, rape, pillaging, slavery, etc existed thousands of years before white people became white.
I know what Olmos is saying. It’s just like, “dude, what?”
Yeah, you could tell there was some resentment in his voice. It’d be better if he used Caucasians as an example, but other people did it too.
Pretty ridiculous BSG was at the UN. This show truly is epic.
I wish I kept up with this show so I could have been posting in here, but whatever…
I’m afraid of a lot of stuff going unanswered in these 2 hours. Will we ever find out why Baltar sees a 6 in his imagination all the time? Where are they going to go once they get Hera? Who knows…
But this season has been really great so far.
I too just discovered this thread at the 11th hour… Remember, Caprica 6 also used to see visions of Baltar so… Who says they get Hera? If they do, it’ll probably be some revelation where they need her to save everyone. I think it’s all going to come down to the opera house or something symbolic of the opera house. Baltar and Caprica though, instead of looking like they’re stealing her, they may be doing something selfless. So, Baltar will not only be the person who cause the destruction of the 13 colonies, but he’ll also be the savior of man and cylon kind.
The show tonight is 2 hours 11 minutes long, so adjust your DVRs accordingly.
–jedi//.
Yeah, good call. I think it actually knows to record all of it, being that it shows long on the DVR.
i just assumed it was some kinda quirky cylon projection thing for baltar seeing 6.
Why did that 6 who got blown out into space earlier look different from all of the rest? I missed out on that explanation.
Its begun!!!
Holy fuck
well frack me at that baltar, 6 moment.
this shit is good. Great action tonight. WTF at colonial one comming out galactica’s dock. Didn’t know it could fit.
Edit: All that and we still got an hour left… whew!
i said that exact thing to my mom…were watching it together.
i cant be the only one laughing about how their well ya know not answering alot of questions…lol that baltar speech was dancing around alot of questions.
