BSG prequel movie directed by Admiral Adama.

Coming in 2009, there's gonna be another Galactica movie along the lines of Razor. Here's the press release about it. It's going to be about some of the cylons before the show started - including some stuff about the resistance on Caprica with my favorite eye candy, Samuel T. Anders, and Chief Tyrol. Also, Brother Cavill will be in it too.

Actually here's what it says:

During the chaotic aftermath of the destruction, two powerful Cylon agents struggle with plots and priorities on the human ships that got away, and among the resistance fighters who were left behind.

This makes me wonder... two powerful cylon agents. And the two main characters from the show who were involved on the ships that got away and the resistance are... Anders and Tyrol. HMMM. Could they have accidentally told us a little bit about what cylon antics they might have been up to before the attack on the Colonies? That's my theory, anyway. Which does not necessarily void out my previous theory about the final five coming from Earth. But what happened to make them forget they were cylons? Were they programmed that way or what?

Honestly, I think I'm going to like this movie more than Razor. I like Anders and Tyrol and I like the prequel idea. I wasn't all that jazzed about watching Admiral Cain for two hours, since I completely hated her character when she was on the show. Granted, the movie did change my mind, and gave a lot more insight into her motivation, but still. Wasn't my favorite. Plus, the main main character of that movie was some new girl. I don't even remember her name. Kendra? Kendra Shaw? Okay, I do remember it. I just didn't remember it immediately. Whatever. The point is, a movie about Anders hanging out and playing Pyramid wins over a movie about Admiral Cain beating up her cylon lover and ordering her officers to kill innocent civilians. Okay? That is just how I feel.

Battlestar Galactica 4x12: "Revelations"

So... let's see. D'Anna came back to life and is the new cylon leader. The four cylons were outed, Tory went to be with the other cylons, Chief doesn't really care what happens to him, Tigh is loyal to the end and Anders is like a lost puppy and needs to come live in my closet. Roslin tells Lee that he'll have to be president after she's dead, and somehow they magically get to Earth in one jump after Starbuck's magical viper woke up and told them where it was. And they get here and nobody's around because we all killed each other with nuclear bombs. Or something.

Good thing the writer's strike ended because if it hadn't that would have been the series finale, with maybe a few minor edits (like telling us who the final cylon is). Which would have been extremely disappointing.

I don't know what's going to happen but here's my theory. It goes with the "all of this has happened before, all of this will happen again" motif. I think that the final five cylons are the cylon models that evolved from the cylons the people on Earth made. And they had a war with the humans just like the ones from the Colonies did, and they blew each other up. Towards the end of the war, maybe as a very last resort, the cylons, who in a reversal of roles are the ones who believe in the pantheon of gods from the colonies (because on Earth we believe in the one true God - you know how it is), sent off one of each of their models to try and find the Colonies. These models obviously succeeded, but their programming got messed up somehow and they forgot who they were. And the last cylon is someone who we've seen but has died. Possibilities my sister and I came up with: Elosha the priest, Admiral Cain, or that other girl from Razor, what's her face. Priest Lady has Roslin's head vision going for her, but I think the chances are decent that Admiral Cain is the last one. It wouldn't be any more surprising than Tigh being one. Although I guess we technically saw her as a teenager in Razor (extended version has those scenes), but Tigh even said in this last episode, "how do you know cylons don't age?" So it's possible.

I'll be honest - my caring what happens on this show is really waning, so it's a good thing there's only half a season left for me to be bothered with. It's similar to what happened with Grey's Anatomy (only not nearly as bad) - nobody is ever allowed to be happy and everything is just so downer all the time. Which makes sense because the human race almost got exterminated and stuff, and they were wandering around aimlessly through space trying to find Earth, but still. It really takes a toll on me to watch a show like this. It's well written and well acted and all around really well made, but it just makes me weary. Oh, and the fact that they never tell us anything. This last season moved along at a snail's pace. The rest of it probably won't be like that. They're on Earth now - supposedly - so things will get interesting. I hope.

my shows are dwindling in numbers...

Lost ended. After this week, BSG isn't coming back until 2009. Doctor Who, you're my last hope, but even you only have four episodes left until the season is over. (And that hiatus is going to be even longer than the others... no new actual series episodes until 2010.)

I suppose... in the meantime, I'll catch up on Life on Mars, MI-5, and Robin Hood. There's plenty there to keep me occupied - I love my British shows. But sadly, don't expect much from this blog for a while there, with the exception of the odd sci-fi related movie.

Battlestar Galactica 4x11: "The Hub"

I just want to say this before I go into anything else about this episode of BSG. In the trailer from last week, we saw D'Anna going "you know about the Final Five, but you don't know that you're one of them?" to Roslin. The first time I saw that, I was like, "yeah, and right after that she went 'JUST KIDDING.'" My parents were like "oh... I don't know, she might be telling the truth." But why would they give that away in the trailer? I kept insisting she was just kidding, and my dad conceded that maybe she was outright lying to her, but then the scene rolled around and what happened? A bunch of dramatic music while Roslin thinks about that statement, and then... OH HA HA. PSYCHE, ROSLIN, D'ANNA WAS JUST KIDDING.

I love when I'm right, even when it's about something stupid.

This episode was all right. Interesting... I like the interaction between the humans and cylons in this fashion as opposed to the constant warring and infiltration from previous seasons, which I was bored with. I kinda didn't care about the Helo/random 8 stuff, but I did feel bad for him when he stumbled upon the room full of Sharon bodies on the Resurrection Hub they were about to blow up.

What I loved most about this episode was the stuff with Roslin and Baltar. Especially the scene where they were trying to talk to the hybrid, and they both kept saying the other one was doing it wrong. And I thought the scene where Baltar confesses inadvertently to betraying the entire human race to the President of the Colonies was brutal, but extremely well played. I was *really* sick of seeing Baltar's sliced open side wound though. Ugh. Gross.

I love D'Anna and I'm glad she's back. I think she's really funny. My mom was like, "she woke up on the wrong side of the bed," which is a perfect description of what she was like this episode and probably what she'll be like for the rest of the time she's around. She's just pissed off at everybody. Even when Helo was "betraying" Random Curious Eight by taking D'Anna to the President instead of the other cylons, she was just like "Whatever. Can we just get a move on to wherever we're going." And I obviously loved her messing with Roslin. It's good to have her back.

Oh, and I thought Laura and Bill's reunion was sweet. Even if they do both frustrate me at times, I was so happy to see them finally together like that. I admit that I may have shed a tear. Probably because of Mary McDonnell's mad acting skillz.

I'm REALLY excited about next week's show. It looks like the four are revealed to everybody else... I bet the last one still won't come to light, though. I'm not sure how they'll explain not telling, though, since D'Anna obviously knows the identities of all of them. I'm sure she didn't just conveniently forget the one that we don't know yet... hopefully. That would be so annoying. But I'm sure that when we do find out who the last one is, it'll be completely out of left field, and NOT in the teaser trailer for the episode. Just a hunch.

Battlestar Galactica 4x10: "Sine Qua Non"

This episode airs today in the US, but it was already on this week in the UK because they didn't have a Memorial Weekend break... so guess what that means? I watched it yesterday. And it was really great. Again with the actual progression of events. I was pretty happy.

This is a momentous episode. Here's a short list of stuff that goes down:
1. Adama steps down as Admiral and promotes Tigh.
2. Caprica Six is pregnant with Tigh's baby.
3. Lee becomes president.

Huh. Yeah. All pretty pivotal.

Thoughts:
1. Adama, when everything goes badly and you find out Tigh's a cylon, don't ever say Tigh didn't tell you so, because he totally did. He said, "this is a bad idea." He said, "the last time I was in charge, it was a disaster." He said those things, and you should have listened. I understand why you did it though. When Laura disappeared, so did your objectivity. I don't have a better idea. I really loved when you said, "I can't live without her." Both of you are being frustrating this season but I really just want you two to get married. You practically are already.

2. Okay, WHAT?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! First of all, this is just gross. I think I get it, that Tigh was sleeping with her because he imagines that she looks like Ellen. But seriously, ICK. And second of all how is that even possible? They're both cylons. I thought the baby farms on Caprica were because cylons couldn't make babies with each other. Maybe it's because he's one of the Final Five, and that makes him special? I know the seven cylons were always going on about how it's one of God's commandments to procreate... maybe they got that idea from the Final Five before they were programmed to forget about them. Maybe it used to be possible, but something happened and the Final Five had to disappear, and so the seven cylons were left with this desire to proliferate the species without any means of doing so. Well, it's a theory at least. I still think Tigh is gross.

3. Yeah, like no one saw that coming. What else could be the motivation behind Lee becoming a member of the Quorum? Delegate Lee is boring. President Lee is clearly not. (By the way, Lee, just a note, but your red shirt was unspeakably hot and could you please wear it more often. I'm sick of the suit.) Lee, you are so much more interesting when you're giving passionate speeches. If you were real, and you ran for president here, I'd vote for you.

How awesome is Romo Lampkin? I love him even when he's crazy. Keeping a dead cat in a bag? Gross, dude. And talking to it like it was still alive...? Head Six, Head Gaius, and now Head Cat. I really loved the look on his face at the end when Lee gave him the dog from New Caprica. Kind of eying him warily.

Kara was great in this episode. She was in like two scenes but she was TOTALLY AND COMPLETELY NORMAL. I was so impressed.

One little gripe: do Lee and Kara even know each other's names anymore. I mean seriously. They were standing right next to each other when Adama, a.k.a. Husker (okay so I loved when he was in the ship at the end and was calling himself Husker, I don't know why) and they didn't even look at each other. I guess they couldn't have just started making out right then and there - he is the president after all - but come on. Give me something.

Battlestar Galactica 4x09: "Guess What's Coming to Dinner"

What even happened. I need to not wait so long to write this stuff. This is the one with the cylon truce, right? And the cylons and humans planning on double crossing each other? And then at the end, Athena shoots the Six in charge of the cylons and the Basestar jumps away with Gaius and Roslin and a bunch of other people.

Yeah. There we go.

Battlestar Galactica 4x08: "Faith"

I've kind of forgotten what happens except for the end, when the hybrid tells Kara she's the harbringer of death... something about the three will lead you to the five, or was it the other way around? I don't remember... it was very confusing.

The scene where they shot that Six was really tough to watch. They put her down like an animal. Also, Tricia Helfer kissing herself...? What?

I thought Anders was great this episode. When he was tempted to stick his hand in the goo console, I kept going NO NO DON'T DO THAT but at the same time I kind of wanted to know what would happen. And I love that nobody even cared that he was doing that because they probably just saw it as a guy messing around with a new machine. And then at the end, when a Boomer gets shot, and Athena refuses to comfort her and Anders steps in... I just wanted to hug him. He's the best, and if everyone finds out he's a cylon and then freaks out about it, that will be the most ridiculous thing ever. Anders wouldn't hurt a bug you guys. He is just a big softie.

I really loved the lack of Tigh in this episode. That's a highlight right there.

Roslin's dream at the end almost made me cry. Sometimes I really hate her, but this episode I just loved her and felt bad for her, especially when she was talking to that lady about when her mom died and started sobbing. Oh, the hybrid said something about how the dying leader will know the meaning of the opera house... that was pretty blatantly about President Roslin. Like I even needed to explain that. I want to know more about that opera house thing so hopefully that will be revealed soon.

This new alliance between cylons and humans is really interesting to me. This was a good episode, because something actually happened. As opposed to the last few episodes where NOTHING HAPPENED AT ALL.

So the preview alleges that next week, "all will be revealed." Only, that's NEVER true with this show. For example, I seriously doubt we will find out who the last cylon is. I'm really interested in seeing what this story with Hera is - drawing pictures of Six in her coloring book? Very intriguing. I want to know just how much of her is cylon. Also, she seems a lot older than I was expecting, but that's just because I have no idea how much time passes between situations on this show.

Battlestar Galactica 4x07: "The Road Less Travelled"

What I really don't understand about the final four cylons is why they need to constantly have meetings with each other. I think this is mainly Tigh's idea. But I mean, honestly, what is the point of these meetings? Like a support group thing? Tigh went to Tyrol and told him he was cutting him slack because of Cally but he needs to suck it up... but why? What does he need to suck it up for? It's not like the four of them have some mission they're planning... I don't get it.

I think Leoben is the absolute creepiest of the cylons. With the possible exception of Tigh.

Baltar is so ridiculous. Where did he get that jacket?

So now Kara is "an angel blazing in the sight of God"?

I think Athena is a filthy hypocrite. She's a cylon, and she seems to be extremely quick to condemn Starbuck. Actually, all of them seem to have forgotten that she is one, and that it is possible for cylons to turn good. So even though I personally do not think Starbuck is a cylon, these people who think she could be one should cut her some slack.

This whole entire situation with Starbuck is insanely frustrating. I don't know whether to care about it or not. It doesn't seem to me like any of the people on that ship are acting in character - except for Helo. But then at the very last second Helo listened to stupid Athena and he did a complete 180 in about five seconds.

Let's Talk About the Final Four

I've been thinking about the different ways these cylons are handling their newfound cylon-ness.

Tigh. In the beginning, he said he had always been the same man he was, and just because he knew he was a cylon now didn't change any of the things he did in the past and he wasn't going to change now - or something to that effect. So far this season, though, and especially in the last episode, he seems to be doubting his resolve. At the beginning of the episode, when they were leaving Cally's service, and he was walking with Tory, the Chief stopped them both, expecting some kind of remorse shown by either of these people, the only ones who know his secret and thus the people he is forced to trust. I thought Tigh's reaction was strange - worrying more about himself than anyone else. Tigh has never been that emotional of a guy anyway, but he understands what it's like to lose someone and I feel like it would have made more sense for his cover for him to say "sorry for your loss" than to just try to leave without saying anything. His speech later on kind of canceled this out, I think. As for the whole thing with him going to visit Ellen!Six? I have no idea what to think about that. I don't know what was going on there. But it was really messed up. (Also: what male on this show hasn't kissed Tricia Helfer at this point?)

Tyrol. At first, I thought he was going to deal with this whole cylon thing a lot better than the rest, simply because he had a family to ground him - someone to love and care for. But then he started distancing himself from them, and ultimately he lost Cally because of that. Now I don't know what he's going to do. I'm worried about Nicky though... just from rumors I've heard about what could be the direction they go concerning him. The kid they've got playing him is absolutely adorable, though.

Tory. This lady has gone off her rocker... I think she's the only one that is really embracing her new identity. Especially now that she is "perfect," according to Baltar. She's a nymphomaniac and a sociopath. I want to see her fight one of the Sixes. From what she's been saying about "what we can do" and so forth, it seems like she almost believes herself to be a superhero type of person. Or maybe more of a supervillain. She is using her powers for evil, not for good. With great power comes great responsibility, and she's not exactly owning up to that, what with her throwing people out of airlocks willy nilly. Out of everyone, my guess is that she's the one who'll reveal herself to be a cylon first.

Anders. Oh, Anders. I just love you. He's the only one who seems to really just not care that he's a cylon. Maybe this is because he has someone to love who is more messed up than he is, maybe this is because he has actual friends who care about him, maybe because he hasn't lost everything dear to him - who knows. He hasn't let anything change who he is. All four of them agreed not to let anything change, but he's the only one who seems to be living up to that agreement. I'm wondering now if this is going to change about him as the season continues, that he'll start unhinging like the rest of them. If he loses Starbuck again, or if he tells her he's a cylon and she rejects him (this scenario would require her not shooting him like she said she would), this would probably change. Right now he has something to lose, and he's too focused on her to worry about himself.

The reason Starbuck is not a cylon: She keeps saying things like "my body feels like a shell" and "I can't feel anything" and stuff. Tory was saying a lot of the same things about herself too, which seems to indicate that Starbuck would be a cylon as well. Here's what I think, and I think it's probably one of the main themes of the show. Kara came back and everyone thought she had come back from the dead a la cylon resurrection ship, and they all but told her they suspected her of being a cylon. This got into her head and made her start doubting herself, and now she thinks maybe she could be a cylon. Now, going back to the agreement the Final Four made about how they were still the same people they always were and being a cylon hasn't changed anything - they're all having these same doubts about themselves. Tigh going to Six and asking to get beaten up, Tory's encounters with Baltar... neither of them had these problems with wondering if what they felt was real before they knew they were cylons. My theory is that it is all completely psychological. The Sixes seem to have this under control - she knows she's a cylon, but she also knows that everything she feels is real, and that she isn't actually that different from humans. We know through her that cylons are completely capable of feeling emotions. Therefore, the doubts about being able to "feel" are all in their heads. The Final Four have always believed that cylons were unfeeling machines, and therefore they think they shouldn't be able to feel. Starbuck has always believed the same way, and now that she suspects herself of possibly being a cylon, she thinks she probably shouldn't be feeling anything either. Starbuck's journey is a yet another illustration of how cylons and humans are actually extremely alike - they can trick themselves into feeling the same things.

Battlestar Galactica 4x06: "Escape Velocity"

I'm really bored with Lee.

Tigh is is my least favorite character in anything I've ever seen or read.

Am I supposed to feel this much sympathy for Gaius Baltar at this point? His speech at the end kind of put me off a little, about the perfect stuff, and the crowd's reaction was weird, but still.

Tyrol better not kill his baby.

Starbuck does not look too great.

That's all I have to say about this episode.

Battlestar Galactica 4x05: "The Ties That Bind"

Here's my problem with Lee not being a pilot anymore: this was the end of the world. They don't have very many pilots anymore. You would think they need all they can get. You would NOT think they would just be all "oh, yeah, that's fine if you retire, you're only one of the best viper pilots we have... you go on and chase your little political dream."

Boomer is making out with Brother Cavill. That is slightly horrifying.

Why did Cally throw up? I'd be pissed if I caught my husband at a bar with some other chick in the middle of the night when he could be helping me raise our child but I don't think I would throw up because of it. So she must be sick or something.

I'm confused. I thought Kara was all by herself but apparently a bunch of viper pilots are with her. What's the point of that?

Anders is a freakin' saint for putting up with Kara. Seriously.

I'm pretty sure this thing with Lee is just an excuse to get more of the political aspect of the fleet into the storyline. And I've heard theories that he might become president eventually.

CALLY he isn't cheating on you, he's a cylon. It's much better. Also, you're an idiot for leaving your toddler alone in your quarters.

Torrey needs to brush her hair. She always looked nice before but ever since she found out she's a cylon she's been all frazzled. Why hasn't someone asked her what the deal is?

Is Cally seriously going to space herself and her baby? Good thing Torrey came and thwarted that little plan...

Okay, actually, maybe not. Torrey seems to be embracing her cylon-ness. She certainly didn't have a problem spacing Cally... probably because she knew about them being cylons. I'm just glad nothing happened to the baby. That would have been messed up, even for this show.

Battlestar Galactica 4x04: "Six of One"

Why didn't it occur to anyone earlier to send Kara out into space on a ship to see if she can find Earth again? I mean... this seems like a pretty simple solution, and they don't risk the whole fleet. I thought of this halfway through the episode and didn't understand why it took so long for anyone else to think of it.

Lee: "Besides, I never really could say no to anything."
Kara: "Except me."
Um... Kara, remember how Lee was like, "hey, let's just finally be together, you tell Anders and I'll tell Dee and everything will finally be right" and then as soon as you woke up you went and married Anders instead? I'm pretty sure you were the one saying no there. But - they kissed. That was wonderful.

Anders looks so nice in uniform.

This cylon civil war thing is going to get interesting.

My favorite thing this episode: "Oh my giddy aunt." Gaius has reached a new level of crazy. I love when he talks to "himself." Here are those clips for your viewing enjoyment.

Battlestar Galactica 4x03: "He That Believeth In Me"

Well, I love this show, and it was awesome to see it again, and I was sad when the episode was over because I didn't want it to be over.

I am slightly upset that Starbuck is holding a gun to the President's head at the end of it. Other than that, I thought this episode was cool.

Obviously we, being from Earth, know that what Kara saw really was Earth. And she saw Saturn and some other stuff that are all recognizable to us. So I think that we can say that we know she's right. The question is, how did she get there, how did she get back, why was she gone two months, and how did her ship get all new and shiny? What does everyone think? I don't really have any theories. Something I just read... remember when Kara risked everything back in whatever season it was for Roslin's visions about the Arrow? What happens now, when the tables are turned? Come on, Madame President, have a little faith. Kara's always come through for you before.

I feel bad for Starbuck. She's my homeslice.

I think Baltar's new situation is hilarious, albeit kind of sad. He's going to end up believing all the weird things they're saying about him being some kind of prophet. I do think he was kind of on the way to redemption, but now he's going to have an entirely new set of problems. I'm very relieved he shaved and cut his hair though.

I really liked the way they filmed Tigh's vision of shooting the Admiral.

I didn't see the preview so I don't know what's going to happen but apparently Xena is back.

conglomerate post

Here is a nifty article discussing the possibilities in the upcoming BSG spinoff Caprica, which if you didn't know, is a prequel about the creation of the cylons.

No one cares, but Flash Gordon got canceled. The only reason I mention it is because one time, my dad mentioned it to me. He told me it wasn't good, so I didn't watch it.

Here is io9's complete guide to science fiction season. A nice list of stuff that's coming out in the next few months - movies, books, TV shows, everything.

I do not know how I missed hearing about this until just now.

This isn't really science fiction but DID YOU GUYS KNOW ABOUT THIS?!

BSG and Doctor Who start this weekend!!!! And I'm not going to get to watch either of them until Sunday at the earliest. Wonderful. (FYI - Doctor Who starts in the UK this weekend. Which means.... get on youtube as fast as you can on Sunday to watch it before it gets taken down due to copyright infringement.)

Finally... I couldn't just post the link to this, because I have never seen anything more adorable:

by your command

(Katie, you will enjoy this.)

NBC.com has some old school Battlestar Galactica shows on their website here. I watched a little bit of the first episode and you know what? I was actually impressed. I kinda thought it would be horrendously campy... and maybe it is, but for an old sci-fi show, I think it's pretty decent.

Also, in case you haven't heard, the writer's strike is over.

April Fourth

This is some pretty hefty stuff right here. The latest Entertainment Weekly has an article about Battlestar Galactica. This picture, very Last Supper-y, is pretty interesting and telling (especially if you read the spoilers from RDM. Hmmm... very, very intriguing. It also says that the official air date for season four is April 4th.

I'm going to talk about the spoilers now.

Most interesting to me is the introduction of Natalie, a new version of Six. She "assumes a leadership position for a group of cylons with a separate agenda from the rest of them." I'm wondering if she's going to be heading a group of cylons that want to forget all differences and merge into the human race? I think whatever the agenda is, it's human friendly, given that she goes by a human name. Although I'm not sure how well this goes with my opinion that she's pointing at Helo and Sharon, who in turn look freaked out. RDM said he didn't want to say who these two were looking at, but whoever it was "was definitely reacting." Um, the only one reacting over there is Natalie. I'm pretty sure it has to be her. I don't know if she's pointing at them accusingly or if she's pointing at them to say "look, we should follow their example and overcome our differences." We'll see.

BOO on Lee not returning to flight status. Although if this means he's going to be a lawyer now, and if that means he'll get more monologues like he did at the end of season three, I don't know how sad I am about it. Anyway, I'm still a little upset about him not going back to being a pilot, but whatever. That doesn't necessarily mean he won't get to fly anymore... and anyway, you'd think that with the serious shortage of pilots they have in the fleet, they'd be able to get over his idealism and let him fight if it came to it. I'm just saying. And wait... wasn't he flying at the end of season three? He was the one that found Starbuck, right? I'm a little vague on the details from last season, it's been such a long time.

"The only one embracing Starbuck is Anders." Hmm. I guess everyone will think she is a cylon after all. Which just goes to show that she probably isn't one. Also, the final cylon isn't at the table... or at least I'm pretty sure that's what the last comment from RDM means: Someone is missing from the table because the last cylon has not been revealed. Although I suppose they could have put in another duplicate of one of the other people - there are two Tricia Helfers, after all. Still, it's way too obvious for Starbuck to be the last cylon. I will be so pissed if that's the case. (I think maybe I could handle it if it were done well and made sense, but I have no earthly idea how they could make that make any kind of sense. But whatever.)

Is it April 4th yet?

Tuesday, January 1, 2008

At least he got a helicopter ride out of it.

This slightly terrified me, but thankfully he will be okay, and he won't have to upload his consciousness to a new body any time soon.

Also, Battlestar Galactica Christmas special.

Friday, November 16, 2007

oh yeah

Regarding Razor... I overheard the following conversation while leaving the theater and it pretty much sums it up:

Dad: So Andrew, what did you think, as a person who doesn't really watch sci-fi?
Andrew: It was frakkin' awesome.

"how greedy can they get, they won't even share the net"

Ron Moore, BSG writer, talks about the strike.

Those webisodes they did? The studio wasn't planning on paying anybody involved for it. Just read what he says about that... it's upsetting to me, because it isn't fair at all.
