I thought it was funny watching SI when "Boomer" was getting her ass kicked on the roof of some warehouse in Calgary or Toronto, wondering how the producers had managed to get just the right angle to make the city look like "Caprica". The other good one was an OTS shot that showed a radio tower with a huge W on top of it. W what? I love the new BSG. I really do. It has complex character development and a storyline that is mercifully bereft of the "reset button" at episode's end. But damn, would it be so hard to not have dumpsters in the background when shooting dialogue in some "alien" world's back alley? -- Warren Ockrassa, Publisher/Editor, nightwares Books <http://books.nightwares.com/> Current work in progress "The Seven-Year Mirror" <http://books.nightwares.com/ockrassa/Flat_Out.pdf> <http://books.nightwares.com/ockrassa/Storms_on_a_Flat_Placid_Sea.pdf> _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l filmed in Vancouver BC. The "W" on that radio tower is a historical structure in Vancouver... not far from UBC campus if IIRC... and the building its on is part of a student housing and shop complex..... nick _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
