Battlestar Review

I once told a friend that the "Battlestar Galactica" series is the best science fiction series in history, which is a bit exaggerated, but never exaggerated. He has reached a height that no other sci-fi film or series can match. Commercial films transcend their own traditions. In terms of subject matter, connotation, and expression techniques, after "Calladega", they can only be flexible and no longer surpass. "Kaladiga" is similar to the Terminator series, that is, after the development of technology to a certain extent, the robot civilization began to try to replace the human civilization, so it began to start a long war with humans. In terms of subject matter, there is nothing too special, but "Calladega" is a real space epic. His extreme point is that the previous science fiction films were often complacent with their own whimsical ideas, but did not follow these assumptions in depth, especially in the state of human existence. In Star Wars, Lucas is far more interested in the light rod than in the characters themselves, adding a little Kurosawa's samurai figure to the stereotypical Shakespeare conflict.

"Band of Brothers" is about a day after D-DAY when a team of paratroopers moved to the French suburbs, while the airmen in "Calladega" had to face a huge enemy who would not rest or reduce their numbers. A war that can only end in failure. "Calladega" asks the heroes of the show, and also the audience, whether the robot has the horror of death? Are you tired? In the extreme situation of life and death, this is not an accurate test question, and there is no standard answer, but it determines life and death. Also, how to maintain the breath of the surviving people and maintain the final dignity of human beings? Fortunately, there seems to be some room for the limits of human beings. So we see the same theme from different angles. The history of science fiction dramas must remember the storytelling form of "Calladega". Some passages tell about the fatigue of the entire fleet, and some passages tell about the struggles of some individuals. In the small and cramped cabin, the audience and the hero in the play Together they dim and sink. If there's a bit of a twist, it might be the religious and agnostic tone of the show, and it might get a bright ending in the final chapter of 2008, and that's what's special about this show, the sci-fi The essence may be the skepticism of science, and the exploration of any unknown things ultimately boils down to the unknown.
