So I was going to go to the Fox Theater and attend the big BSG Finale party being held there.
Point. WAS.
NBC in their INFINATE wisdom withdrew they're allowance of the screening to occur. Stating copyright laws and the like.
Bullshit.
A portion of the ticket sales were going to the Daily Bread Food Bank. So not only are the fans out of luck, but so is the charity. Real Nice!
Here's the story if you're interested.
torontoist.com/2009/03/by_their_command.php "While NBC Universal is supportive of your efforts to help a worthy cause, we regret to inform you that we will not authorize the public exhibition of the Battlestar Galactica finale as described below. Please be advised that any public exhibition of the show in this manner would be in violation of applicable copyright law."
Luckily I have a plan B. So I am not as pissed as I was when I first found out.
Still. MotherFrakers.
