You know, I've just started watching BSG but I just can't get on board with "frackin'", just ends up sounding goofy.



It's better than "Falgocarp" from the original series.

Yeah, the event horizon is cool. I also like the X-Wing, the B-Wing, the Tie Defender, the Tie Advanced, the Suncrusher was kind of cool. Well, there really are too many to list, so I'm just going to stop right now ;p

Cool is an understatement. It travels to hell, drives its crew to Reaver-like madness, and comes back alive and bent on killing anyone comes aboard.

Vic-Class SD!? C'mon...
See, I get too specific, I have to break it down into capital ships, star-fighters, transports...so here's a composite. They also just simply come from my fav films.

Okay, mine:

10. Eagle 5 - Its a flying Winnebago...how wierd is that?
9. Nostromo - From Alien
8. The Heart of Gold - Infinate Probability Drive anyone?
7. Discovery - from 2001 (just was a kickin' set too)
6. Can't remmebr the name right now...
5. TIE Avenger - Just my fav starfighter from the card game. Pretty much an interceptor, now with a hyperdrive.
4. USS Enterprise
3. Millenium Falcon
2. Executor - Command ship of the Empire...duh...
1. Serenity - Hey, its grown on me and the crew that comes with it. I want to part of that family.

I started to type up my list and realized it was just too ruttin' esoteric. Apparently I live in my own verse for ships, because other than the Cygnus and the T.A.R.D.I.S. no one would recognize them. Well, maybe the SIDRAT, but how many people have heard of the Terra IV, the HMS Space Beagle or the Marathon?

And speaking of the Marathon, it beat the Infinite Improbability Drive by about 40 years and equalled it on oddness. Basically, since all distances are relative no exact distances can be proven to exist, therefore no distance truly does exist. And you're at your destination instantly. Throw in the chess playing, parallel processing martians and you've got a winner.
