The moment you find out that the Cylon Raiders were more organic then the centurions
I'd like to think the bipedal toasters had a brain and supporting organs. The show didn't go into as much detail of what's inside the newer Centurions like they did with the Raiders. If everything else in the Cylon fleet, including Basestars, have biological parts, it stands to reason the Cylons might. It seemed like killed Raiders didn't display a blood spray until later in the series, so it might have been a detail they didn't go into when producing their cheap looking Centurion CGI.
I remember feeling excited over finding out what their technology was going to look like inside of its cockpit. I didn't expect that I'd be horrified, instead.
@@KomamuraSajin Not sure the show ever did really get into stuff about the centurions as much as it should have. All that was cared about were the humanform cylons.
Or they both operate on the same pricipals.
@@KomamuraSajinactually, in "The Plan" when preparing to Nuke the colonies we can see a centurion with something like a ball where, for the lack of a better analogy, an arc reactor would be in an iron man suit. That ball beats, like a heart. You would think "well it's easier to blow" it is not.
"I'm gonna rip your brain out and fly around in your corpse."
So Starbuck is like the Cylon equivalent of some horrible D&D abomination.
Bobbie Draper asks Avasarala "I don't see how you can wear that" (referring to the Tachi uniform). Avasarala : "The skin of my enemy". Starbuck was just more literal.
Creature type: Aberration
Yah. Talk about getting inside the head of your enemy.
This is why I think she's able to jump between that storm she's always painting, Earth and Galactica all mysteriously near the end of the series. I mean, frakk, if the Cylon Raiders can do it and they have guts on the inside, maybe crawling inside one and learning their anatomy is it really takes. Maybe it's not all that difficult... just different from the ordinary ambulatory motion humans are used to. Very... very different.
@@gameon_ct Harbinger of Death. The title the Cylons gave her fits.
Starbuck is an intellecy devourer confirmed lmao.
There’s something oddly terrifying about shooting a machine and seeing blood come out, there’s a sequence later in the show where Vipers are destroying a bunch of Raiders and they explode into a splatter of gore. It’s just… disturbing.
Agreed. Cool though
You ever heard the old saying stick if they aren't dead
Remember that scene from Empire Strikes Back, with the tauntaun...this is that scene turned up to around twelve.
Yeah, but the inside of a tauntaun is Luke-warm compared to this...
@@atticstattic No need to get so Hoth-style about it, you know...
@@atticstattic Han on a sec, Ice see what you did there
@@atticstattic Problem is that you can't Sith properly in that Tauntaun...
This literally reminded me of that.
This is when 6 shows up to ask Kara nicely to please stop lobotomizing the raider
I remember binge watching the entire series in 2 weeks and it was Heaven. Still one the best series ever made.
This episode always reminded of the "Galactica 1980" episode " The return of Starbuck", (aka: Starbuck's great journey). He crash landed on a desolate planet and had to rely on a Cylon for company...he named him "Cy". I always thought that this was an homage to that episode.
That episode with Richard Hatch is at least inspired by, if not a hommage, to "Hell in the Pacific". Later, the same subject matter was picked up in Enemy Mine again.
@@ytucharliesierra Dirk Benedict.
@@bobbyrice You are absolutely right, I stand corrected. Thank You!
The whole idea of showing us the inside and inner workings of a raider this way is fantastic! They could have skipped over all of it and just said "Starbuck somehow got it working" but instead they showed us exactly how she did it, even it was pushing suspension of disbelief a little...
P.S. Could you upload the second part where she figures out how to fly it, pretty please? ;)
I disagree. By doing so it took away the mystery behind the Cylon technology which added to the story telling. The skin jobs was difficult to swallow at first, and now we see the raiders are somewhat similar doesn't give that Cylon feel. The overall story would have been more interesting and compelling if the Cylons were pure robotic in nature and the skin jobs were just a mere extension.
@@GplusGains I agree with that assessment. The revelation that Cylons are really just a bunch of humanoid clones with Cavill as their president of sorts was quite disappointing. The whole ruthlessly calculating hive mind angle would have made the Cylons much more mysterious and menacing.
@@antred11 More mysterious, menacing... and generic.
If I remember good it was shown in one episode when they captured one raider and took it to the Battlestar Galactica
@@dandi20000... You mean the episode that we're watching right now in this video as she does it?
That is a surprisingly roomy interior. You would think the Cylons would try to pack it a little tighter in there
Id say the one shot that penetrated next to the sensor might have fractured and ricochet around, turing some of the larger stuff into mush. Vacuum then sucked out most of it.
The cylons probably also left room for future enhancements or it was intended to to be able to carry a few skin jobs in an emergency
@Johnny Dominguez 1 atmosphere is not that hard to hold with some duct tape
They made it so _they_ could get in & make repairs I guess.

I'm 55, I've always loved sci fi and I'can't remember how many series I've watched... But this one... the actors, the characters, the plot, the fx... Everything perfect!!! Thank you Mr Moore 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Perfect? I wouldn't go that far but it is good.
I apologize, I did not mean in an objective sense ..... "perfect" for me, speaking in a subjective sense
@@andreasilvestri1696 May I recommend THE EXPANSE? It's a fine mix of the best elements from BSG, Babylon 5, and Firefly. May take a bit before it sucks you in but your patience will be rewarded.
@@AngeloBarovierSD thanks Angelo, I will follow the advice .. in fact I had stopped in the first season because it hadn't particularly gripped me ... but it is still worthwhile to continue the vision
@@andreasilvestri1696 I stopped my first time through, too. Not intentionally. I just never got around to continuing after a few episodes and kind of forgot about it. The world building was pretty thick and the story was dense.
The second time through somehow didn't seem so laborious. And once it picked up steam, it became really enjoyable. I haven't regretted going back.
The other Starbuck had a Cylon buddy too.
Cylon "buddy"
His name was sye. It was from Galactica 1980.
That was one of the best episodes of Galactica 1980. The child profit tells the story.
@@ericbukley2140 it also explains Dirk Benedicts departure from the original series
@@70nastyfish I believe he eventually names himself Cyrus
Why does Starbuck approach from the FRONT of the Cylon Raider if she is worried it's still alive? She even sticks her head right in front of the GUNBARREL. Why not approach from the rear of the ship?
TheBigExclusive you scare an animal if you approach from the rear and they’ll attack
The raider looks like a creature, so cinematically it’s far more interesting to see it from the “face” end rather than the butt end.
Lol, how dare you bring logical common sense to TV cliched story telling. 😂
@@russellh8702 how the hell is a downed raider gonna attack if you come from behind, even if its still somewhat alive? raiders don't have rear facing weaponry, the thing can't take off, so the only thing it could have done to maybe kill starbuck if she came from the rear would be to fire its rear jets in the hope of scorching her suit. and that danger is also easily avoided by not walking into the jet's line of fire. all she had to do to remain safe was come at it from the side
Why Starbuck didn't bring peanuts to tame it? Why Starbuck didn't give it a dog name and brought it home to sleep on her cot? Why Starbuck didn't enter from the butthole? Why why why.
Good episode but still bugs me that Starbucks walks right in front of the Raider's guns. 0:55
When you've effectively blown the Raider's brains out and well,you're Starbuck,you can afford to be a bit cocky.
I was thinking the same thing, if the raider was still alive, it could have blast Starbucks into smithereens when she stood in front of its guns.
@@sulfo4229 That's the thing. It was still alive (though Starbuck didn't know this yet) but still she should have approached it from the side.
@@blairbrown4812
She didn't know it was dead when she did that.
@@ghostofpambo6266
It was dead.
...and Scar was born. Again.
No more boom boom for that babyscar, Kat killed it
Scar and Starbuck
Is it really scar in one of his earlier bodies or is it just fan speculation. It would be awesome if it were Scar.
I believe that Scar died in another episode and since a "Resurrection Ship" wasn't nearby, he wasn't "resurrected"...
This is another raider that was shot by Starbuck and died due to no oxygen and the vacuum of space... The "organics needed an oxygen/nitrogen atmosphere and normal air pressure to live...
Boskov01 I think I read somewhere it was but I’ll have to find it again or maybe eaglemoss scar issue may confirm it
@@dalemcnamee2427 I think what they ment was that Raiders, just like skin jobs, were applicable to resurrection. Meaning every time a Raider was shot down, they would come back more experienced. Scar was something of a pinnacle in that regard.
The fan theory was that this Raider could have been an earlier iteration of Scar, which explaines why it was so fixiated on Starbuck during the asteroid belt episode.
What a fantastic series this was. If it would have been made by hbo everyone would have gone crazy about it.
No if hbo made it, Starbuck would have went over the edge and flown around annihilating the fleet in her dead cylon raider.
And I thought they smelled bad on the outside.
the only thing unexplained.. is what produces the red light on the visor. It clearly HAS to be something mechanical (as the purely mechanical centurions have the same thing), yet all we have here is an empty space behind the visor
also "you're alive that means you need oxygen" imagine if it was an anaerobic ordanisms like what lives around sulphur jets in the oceans... then again to her credit it was either that, or she was dead.
On searches, the frontal lobe of the brain covers the lower vent area up to the optic area. The brain is rather large. Google cylon raider reimagined or sparrow.
I watch this, and i wish it was longer. man that was amazing.
Wasn't it in the original series where Starbuck survived a crash, and met a Cylon..? 😉
Yes, stand-alone episode
You're thinking about that one episode of Galactica 1980 where Starbuck gets stranded on a planet with a Centurion when they were reminiscing about what had happened to him.
Yes, based off the Galactica 1980 episode, which itself was based off the Barry Longyear story "Enemy Mine." The Galactica 1980 episode is the underlying premise for the Starbuck character in the new series. Cara Thrace is Dr. Z, the child of the gods who leads the Galactica to Earth and is the harbinger of death.
@@bellesogne People should read or watch enemy mine, the movie was good
Leave it to Starbuck to rip the guts out of a Cylon raider...
gotta do what ya gotta do
My jaw dropped when they showed the Raiders to be organic.
I was thinking what a concept how are they created?
One of the best episodes of battlestar galactica
Not too shabby, but can she set joystick controls up on iL2 cliffs of dover ?
I love how Starbuck is a totally badass woman without being insulting to your intelligence like Rey from those Disney Star Wars abominations.
Its not like Star Wars started off with some clueless kid from a farm that ends up flying a state of the art fighter on the front lines of the most important battle ever using a super power he never even knew existed just days after claiming he wanted to join the empire because he was board....
At least Rey has a reason to know how to fight, was aware of the force and Jedi and had an idea of what they could do. She was loyal to the good guys from the start and did actual things to earn their trust while Luke just happened to be in the right place to get dragged along.
Actually, were Starbuck was introduced, her character was bashed. In the original 1970's version, Starbuck was a man, and so was Boomer, and I still hate the fact that they recast them as women while cutting all (and there was at least four or five) really strong female characters from the reboot.
@@DrewLSsix First of all. Luke wasn't any countryside farm boy. He was already known as a very good pilot. He met another pilot in the rebel base. This plot was extrapolated in the Phantom Menace and might suggest that Luke, like his father, was already using the Force unknowingly on a subconscious level. Most of the "new fans" don't remember that obvious facts and spew idiotic comments.
Rey plot is plagiarism of Luke story with the neoHollywood style
Female, better in every aspect than the original. Episodes VII to IX are reboots of the old. Expect dying old characters for figurines sales.
Yup. This is how you do a strong female character.
@@crank1985 A farmer flying a crop duster doesn't do an hour in a simulator and then know how to take an F-18 into a pitched battle.
When STAR WARS came out, there were no prequels. However, people still accepted the fun fantasy adventure of it all without feeling the need to tear at the hand-waving which put Luke in the seat of a starfighter with effectively zero training.
Also, you super-legit old fan criticizing "newbies", the other pilot Luke "met" was his childhood friend and "big brother" Biggs Darklighter.
Rey's journey from nobody to Jedi barely differs from Luke's, both onscreen and off. They have a legacy connection to the Force through heritage, they are able to extrapolate their mechanically-learned skills via their innate Force strength, they intuit Force skills very quickly, and they exceed the expectations of everyone else through more than just their space wizard powers.
Moreover, all of this is retroactively explained in later movies, all of which were pretty much made up along the way in scripts written from very basic plot points.
You don't like Rey, that's cool.
But if you're going to present arguments from a story structure, character analysis, cinematic language, or film production standpoint, you should probably do a little more studying before you next attempt to speak with authority.
Always loved her fighting spirit, I know it's TV but still
And I thought they smelled bad...on the outside!
Never understood how she tagged this Raider with her name, lol.
She crawled under it and taped her callsign to it. She used the tape from her emergency kit
@@acerolobo Where was Lee's tape when he ejected from the blackbird? Maybe they ran out lol
Plot armor also sells tape and unlimited oxygen from a dead synth.
Robert Baird lee was depressed, he didn’t want to survive
I thought she wrote it in the raiders blood.
Edit: saw the episode again, nope it was in tape, not sure where that came from lol.
What's the best way to approach a downed ship with unknown enemies? Walk right in front of the guns of course...............
Imagine that you are a being who's body is of a ship. What a life.
By Your Command
Yes Kara, walk IN-FRONT the Raider where its guns are instead of behind in the event it's still alive!
SO SAY WE ALL
I love how casually she just rips the brain out 🤣
What did you expect her to do? Conduct a funeral? 🤣
@@Nghilifa 🤣😂
By your Command
My God's. It flinched.
That is freaky.
Look up the video where the Cylon Raiders were being "lobotomized" to keep them from developing and exercising their free will... The same goes for the other Cylon soldiers...
The opening scene is pretty gruesome and freaky...
I never understood the Cylon rationale for the use of carbon based biologics when silicon is so much more reliable. A lot of their engineering is suspect.
I think it was them trying to "evolve" and become superior to their makers in every way possible. Or perhaps to be closer to the Final Five
@@spaceflight1019 For raiders bio organic brains is actually not a bad idea. Computers are good but they without highly advanced programming they can't learn or adapt. Making them basically animals gives them instinct and the ability to learn naturally, very good qualities for a fighter to have without the need for a massive complex computer.
@@dalemcnamee2427
Yeah, this made the battle line-up/dog fight in "Flight of the Phoenix" hard to watch. Blood going everywhere, raiders getting sliced in half.. I can see why Ron said that so much of this show was 'about 9/11, America's response, and the interpretation by each viewer of whether they were okay with torture, etc.'. (Not a direct quote.)
Reminds me of pickle rick and the cockroach hahah
What episode/ season is this pls?
@1:24-1:26
"Lords,I owe you one."
Don't worry Starbuck,you'll have a chance to pay them back. In spades
I loved this series and especially Kara "Starbuck" Thrace. What! No encounter with Apollo?
О, один из моих любимых эпизодов!
Угонщица)
Is Kara 'Starbuck' Thrace a better space pilot than Han Solo?
The answer may be ... yes!
Yeah, walk right in front of the gun first
Kara praying, the one time she ain’t swearing.
Does she keep the brain/control unit in the raider?
Why go to it from the front where if someone was still alive, they can open up with their onboard frontal guns.
I fracking hate the outro of this videos so much...
Only Starbuck...
Who knew a tiny piece of space suit fabric is all you need to block a hole from the vacuum of space 🤷♂️
Yes. It actually is. The fabric is airtight and the pressure created by the oxygen trying to escape into the vacuum of space is enough to keep it in place.
Mecurian is right, the amount of pressure to seal a small opening in space is very little. Nothing will every really get sucked through so long as it is wider than the opening you are sealing
@@tyler_bt3326 Just one atmosphere of differential. You could plug a small hole with your finger, with the only danger being the extremely low temperature of space.
If only she had a pouch of soda pop.
Still bugs me that Starbuck walks in FRONT of Raider in range of it's guns. Should have approached from the side.
Starbucks are you a surgeon or an engineer?
Dammit Lee! I’m a pilot, not an engineer!
It would be fun to see Simon Pegg's Scotty figure this one out.
Yes.
Add the part where she flies back to the fleet, you already did it but do it again
Why the frack did the Cylons design a fighter, that depends on oxygen. To operate in space.
This episode was full of lazy writting
Maybe to reuse the resurrection tech on their fighters as well (as it only works on organics) ? This way if a raider gets destroyed, the controller animal inside resurrects with all previous experience. Give it a few cycles and your fighter screen will consist of Red Barons.
I'm pretty sure that this raider was a former body of scar and the reason he or maybe ever she or maybe it's a zer it don't identify as male or female it identifies as a space fighter jet hates so much is because zer was still alive when Kara crawled all up inside zer and started pulling zer's arteries out one by one. Zer was incapacitated unable to fire or fly but zer could still see and feel pain and mental anguish. Imagine your laid out and can't speak for some reason that's not important. Now imagine Kara thrice walks over to you flips you on your stomach and then proceeds to crawl inside you via your booty hole into her whole body with a space suit is now inside of you and she starts pulling out veins and arteries and rips out your wind pipe from the inside so she can breath while you suffocate. Not much fun sure it might be fun in a new and exciting way when she got both hands up there at first but when she pulls you apart to fit that helmeted head even though it's Starbuck that would be a strong nope for me.
never liked the genderswapped starbuck.
If they were going to do it at all (which I think was a good call; turning the greatest womanizer of the original series into a woman was an ironically inspired choice), I think they got it right.
I honestly hated the reboot BSG series. While I do know it had its moments, the space battles were the best of the new CGI period, they literally took a half worked idea from the spin off of the original series (the one that flopped) and ran it into the ground. I couldn't stand the shaky camera movement and the random zooms. I recall, for the few episodes I watched, it gave me motion sickness.
Why are you here?
@@kcdodger Why do you bother commenting if that's all your gonna say?
@Larry Richards Amazing when not liking something for valid reasons makes one a troll. Or is that just the go to for someone who can't think up their own opinion?
I never saw the original, and I only saw glimpses of this series as a 5 year old when my parents were watching it, so I don't have too much perspective on the series. However, the few scenes I saw makes me want to watch the whole thing, and I probably will.
The shaky camera movements are a valid argument though. I never felt sick because of it but it is pretty lame.
