My heartbroken thoughts on the Battlestar Finale
so i sit here in my room at 3:52 in the morning after the finale occurred almost six hours ago and i . eel even worse than before. I loved the first half of the show. the battle was awesome and exciting and genius. the resolution to it was great. finding Earth2 the way it did fit perfectly to me.
then we get to Bill and Laura saying goodbye, I felt sad and i was like "finally father and son have forgiven each other and are ok." I thought Bill was gonna crash the raptor so he and Laura could go out together.
And I felt a little bit of anger for the goodbye between K/S. But not much because though I truly, truly hate the Anders character as a plot device and a foil between our true soulmates K/L, who was given so much importance all of a sudden and deserved none of it. No earlier in the day, as i was Zenning and watching the marathon, (which I took the day off from work to watch) and i had an epiphany. all the interviews and talk about how these last episodes showed that Kara and Anders relationship was growing deeper and stronger suddenly rang very false and hollow. I saw them as friends and frak buddies, not as lovers. not as a romantic couple. so I was uplidfted. and the goodbye was eh but the i love you was a rediculous lie.
and we get more awesome flashback of K/L and the immediate, unquenchable attraction and pull between them. I knew from the beginning that they fell in love the millisecond they saw each other. I loved it, yeah I thought, ooh thats kinda dirty that they are gonna cheat with Zak right there on the couch. But inside I was happy, happy that they really were like this unstoppable force that had to be together. and i was a little relieved that they stopped but i knew they were secretly plotting how they could work it out and still have Zak be ok with it as they would go get married and have a good life.
Then Kara says,"I'm done Lee. My journey is over." I was like ok so your done running and fighting what you feel for my boy Lee huh? and Lee is smiling and saying what he wants to do, and I'm like "Just ask her if she wants to go.... what the FUCK?" she disappeared.
Just fucking up and poofed away! Leaving Lee all alone. again. i want to grab her and scream at her and ask her why she leaves him all the fucking time. Why can they not be together was the first three seasons a dream? a sick fucking joke?
I mean really RDM what was the whole point of weaving this epic and beautiful and DESTINED love that for three seasons, SIX YEARS OF MY LIFE THAT I EMOTIONALLY AND MENTALLY INVESTED IN for it to just be retconned and shit on and minimalized and marginalized in one season. in one second. poof!
"everything i got you to believe in, in these characters, the emotions between them, the LOVE and DEVOTION towards each other. The simple yet oh so complicated connection and completion that they have with each other. yeah that dont mean shit!! HAHA you are a fucking idiot!! I screwed you over again! and do you wanna know why? Because I can. It is MY show and I dont give a fuck how you feel. I dont give a fuck that i strung you along for six years. Because you didnt like Anders. I did it because I am a heartless bastard and I could!!! Fuck you fans!! THNXBYE!!"
well fuck you ron moore. i have my own ending and these characters HAVE touched my heart and soul and changed me for the better. and they HAVE moved past that "moment on the table" in their relationship you son of a bitch. YOU just didn't want them to. you wanted an ending that none of the fans wanted. well you know what? Kara and Lee are past that moment on the table, they have grown up and evolved and share a connection and a love that you were never able to destroy in this last season. i believe in that, in these character's love for one another and you and your pompous self importance can NEVER take that away from me. you can kiss my ass!!
