• BSG article: "Where no TV show has gone before"
  Laura Miller is wooed by the re-envisioned Battlestar Galactica.
  Still, Starbuck (whose real name is Kara Thrace; Starbuck and Apollo are pilot call names), is a tomboy by the standards of our world, and we all know what happens to a tomboy in pop culture. She tries to be one of the guys while harboring a secret, unrequited crush on her best guy friend, but the guy doesn't even see her as a girl until she has the sense to put on a dress, lipstick and a suitably demure manner at the big dance, whereupon he is wowed. Well, you can scratch that scenario.

• The New World
  Terrence Malick's (Badlands, The Thin Red Line) next film is about the arrival of the English in North America, and the Pocahontas and John Smith story. I saw the first teaser for this way back last year, and thought it was truly stunning. It also has some great actors in its cast, as you would expect with Malick: Christopher Plummer, Christian Bale, David Thewlis, Colin Farrell (okay, so he isn't exactly great).
