SGA Epiphany (2.12) Running Commentary
"I didn't ask for a log!" And then Teyla gives Ronon The Smirk. Too funny.
"Problematic." Yeah, I love Rodney's concept of "problematic."
Aw, man! Rodney's face when they lose John through the barrier. Such a woobie face.
Still love the opening credits except for the shot of Carson. Couldn't they find one where he wasn't squinting?
Aw, no David Nykl listed in the credits. Darn.
Rodney and Ronon both freaking out in their own ways. Aw, they love John so much.
How cool is it to see a Joe Flanigan writing credit? Woohoo!
Hopefully Rodney realises he's not counting seconds there... Way too fast.
John musta been asleep while the held the branch through?
No note. Silly Rodney!
Oo! Ya know, Carson's looking nice in the dark grey shirt there.
Conan and Xena! Hehe. Aw, and Rodney acknowledges he's being rude, before Carson even finishes correcting him! Wow, he's mellowing. Oh, and the look Carson gives him. Gotta love it.
Woohoo! Castaway reference. Oh, I so love this show for the pop-culture references. I mean, how many SF shows do you get that with?
Huh. You know, lillyjk's right, they do light this interestingly in the caves... his face and torso are mostly in shadows, but his pelvis and upper legs are well-lit. Interesting lighting choice, there...
"This was not his fault, it was mine." Wow. Go Rodney.
Oh, did anyone else notice the slight quaver in his voice when Rodney says, "... died of old age"?
LOL!!! A real jumper pilot "because I don't trust him and I can't fly the damn thing in a straight line." Oh, I'm loving this.
Though, is it me or is there a whole lot more swearing in season 2 than there was in season 1? I mean the "crap" in Intruder was funny partly because you didn't hear swearing that much on the show. But now we have Rodney calling Ford a "little bastard" in Lost Boys, John telling Ford he was "one tough son of a bitch" in The Hive and now this. Not that I necessarily mind, but I kinda like it when the writers take a very light hand with the swearing-- makes it easier for me to introduce the show to friends and family who are more sensitive to that kinda thing (and my dad gets almost faint with foul language-- almost as bad as the sight of blood).
Claws. Ouch!
Oo! Gratuitous tummy shot! (Okay, maybe not gratuitous, but probably unintended)
Hehe. Muttered, "Actually, Zelenka's idea." So, we don't get Radek, but they're still going to talk about him. *SIGH* So cruel.
Okay, so the kid is the little sister of scaredy-cat guy and doomed-to-fail potential romantic interest? I suppose there are families where the kids span that far...
Aw, poor Sheppard. A woman got him naked without his permission.
Okay, and may I just say, that's not a meal, that's a snack. They seem a little too rugged and hearty to be doing the nouvelle cuisine thing.
Ah. Another "damn" (well, actually "dammit"). Now I'm going to have to go back to season 1 and see if I just never noticed.
Wonder how many of the flowers in the field are natural and how many were placed there.
Oh, the face while everyone is meditating! Poorpoor bored Shep!
Okay, I'm not seeing anyone else in knee-high boots. Is it just that Shep wears his pants tucked in and everyone else wears their pants over?
Breakfast. Two biscuits and he's sharing it with her...
"Abandonment issues." Great line.
Are those prayer beads?!
Oh! Bare feet! Woohoo!
Oh, icky stalkery stuff. Do the writers think her following him "with her mind" is romantic?
"Tonight?" Yeah, I'd be freaking. Ain't no way I'd want someone, even if I did like them, telling me "Yup, tonight's the night we're doing the deed, baby." *Shivers*
Hehe. "We might even get a ZedPM out of this." Little tongue clicky thing. "Now you're talking." Ronon and Rodney moment there. Cute.
Oh, scaredy!Carson. Isn't he cute?
"An hour would give us months in there." Um. An hour would give you roughly 250 hours, which is... 10 days, 10 hours. Math, people.
Okay. Now why didn't Elizabeth go sit with Rodney? That was weird.
LOL! "Oh, no, so we've only got 12 years in here." Touche, Rodney!
Oh, macho Rodney and Carson with guns, defending Weir!
Okay, "a couple of hours" and "six months" isn't a ratio of 250, which is what Teyla estimated and close to 3 second to 12 minutes. It would be more like 17-18 hours.
Oh, beastie got a lot bigger...
Okay, that was a bit anticlimactic...
Ah, no ZedPM for Rodney. Poor boy. Of course, the ZPM would have to be close to drained, I would think...
"What is it with you and ascended women?" Hehe
Okay, well, cool ep. I kinda liked seeing Shep in a beard. Wasn't a bad look on him.
