I GOT THROUGH!!!!!!!!!!! SO HAPPY RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!!!!!! OUT OF OVER 150 APPLICANTS I'M IN THE FINAL FIVE......I JUST REALISED HOW FRAKKING FUNNY THAT IS...THE FINAL FIVE.....EEEEEEEEEEEEE! ITS FATE RIGHT!!??
EXCUSE ME WHILE I GO DIE IN A PUDDLE OF SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!
Ok so the Q+A...This year for once everything ran on time. We started queuing for the BSG panel 45 mins early just to be sure of a good seat. And we got em, Me and
Of course I had to put my hand up and the first question came to me....all I had in my head was to ask Eddie about the A/R relationship but I thought I just couldn't open the whole panel with a shipper question. Instead I asked Rehka, who fyi is soooo gorgeous and nice IRL..."After your amazing scene with Mary McDonnell last week, when laura totally bitch slapped you down, I then quoted the "I don't care if you spend the night on your knees praying, or just on your knees"....." The audience cheered at this ;-) "Why do you think after all they have been through together Tory is with Baltar? Do you think it is her cylon or human side coming out?" Rehka said it was a good question and I forget everything she said but to sum up, she said she though Tory was very confused right now. She is torn between the power of being a cylon and her human side.
Next up was
Someone then asked how the two cylons on the panel reacted to finding out they were going to eb playing Cylons....EJO Laughed and pointed at Aaron and said "He was totally pissed." Aaron agreed at first he was not happy, nor was Michael, but now they were. Rehka straight away said "I was thrilled!"
Next a question about how BSG related to real life today. In effect the politics on the show and the questioner made a comment about the current democratic race in the U.S. Eddie who, as we know is staunch anti-Bush gave a wonderful answer...This is when i am SO MAD that my sound didnt work, cos I would love you all to hear it. In essence he said that he was still shocked that the current US President was able to look himself in the mirror and said that He can't say much as it was the American public who somehow voted him in for his second term (Though Eddie made it clear he wasn't one who did) But that he knew there would most definatly be a change at the next election. He said he really didn't mind who won Obama or Clinton.
The big question...."Do you know who the final cylon is?" Of course we didn't expect to get a name, but they all made it clear they all did as they had filmed the final ep. Whether or not that means we don't find out until then I don't know! Aaron pointed at A.J and also said that he had read the guessing done on the internet forums and we are waaaay off base...Though as most main characters have been guessed on skiffy Im now more confused as to who its gonna be!!??
"How do the cast feel about the show coming to an end." I nearly cried during this question and had trialia not had a bad shoulder I probably would've been weeping on it....Eddie answered with his usual cheeriness ;-) He said that while of course everyone would miss everyone and the crew, they understood the show has a beginning, middle and end. He said that " I highly recommend you don't watch its gonna be depressing....It Hurts..." GAH...He also gave credit to the younger actors and said he looked forward to seeing where their careers took them. He also said that the final five do not have copies!!
Someone then asked Eddie what it was like directing. Of course he loves it, working with such a talented cast, he had been given other oppurtunities to direct but loved doing BSG. Rehka then said being directed by Eddie was "Fucking fantastic!"
Hee, someone then asked who they would throw out of an airlock...the general consensus was Baltar and his nymph squad, though Eddie said that they couldn't imagine the show without Baltar.....Aaron said Gaeta's stump, which made everyone LOL...
Questions on people keeping their accents on the show in character, (except for Jamie) Again I wish I could remember more because again Eddie gave a great answer about it being true to life in the world these days though I am not sure if he actually answers the question ;-P. How BSG deals with topics such as abortion, suicide bombings.
"How many people will live to see Earth?" Aaron (I think) said 11...LOL, Eddie said "Not many"
Then I thought ok I had waited long enough it was time.....I was actually shaking when I asked this,which is unusual as I am normally a right show off ;-) I said to Eddie...."I am really sorry to ask, cos I am sure that you get asked this a lot but if I go home tonight without asking there will be a lot of angry shippers online waiting for me....but ....Adama/Roslin....ever gonna happen...we've been waiting nearly 4 years now...?!!" Eddie started by saying that this was his first con so he didn't mind being asked that (I really did NOT know this was his first con ever...but app so) He then smiled and said....I forget exactly what order as I was trying not to pass out from squeeee overload...I could feel my fellow shippers waiting with baited breath '-) "I love working with Mary, who wouldn't. In fact I'm in love with Mary"......"Its beautiful, extraordinary what is happening between them, they have grown so much. They do love each other a lot"....SOUND OF FANGIRLS PASSING OUT...."There is great love there they are completly in love, it will make people happy but it will rip your heart out...."So Im guessing they dont live happily ever after...but who cares....for now...they are IN LOVE!!!
Ok next came THE FUNNIEST part of the panel....someone asked about practical jokes if they played pranks on each other....Eddie burst out laughing and they all looked at Aaron, who hid his head.....Eddie then took the mic off the stand and started to walk down the catwalk in the middle of the room and told this story.....Aaron was cringing and pretending to throw a chair at Eddie....."Ok so you know when you get mic'd up for a scene. The mic goes in through the top of your clothes, so you gotta open up your buttons, the wire then comes through your clothes and out to your ankle...But Aaron here, does not often wear underwear!" Audience LOL'ing....Eddie sure can tell a story....."So this sound guy is down by Aarons crotch waiting to pull out the mic lead and Aaron unzips the Chiefs suit...but he unzips to far....Ok have ya'll heard of *coldcocked*"....he then started laughing so much, I swear EJO laughing is a sight worth a million...Basically what happened was this poor sound dude was slapped round the chops with the chiefs.....ummmm.....heavy raider we'll say ;-) !!!
Favourite Episode
Aaron...Flight of the Phoenix
AJ....One that hasn;'t been aired yet
Rehka....still LOL'ing from Eddies story
Eddie...33...or the final one "RDM had outdone himself"
Hee this guy, I forgot where from got up and said his wife found EJO really sexy and how could he be more like him...Eddie said "Dude your doing fine." And also spoke in Spanish...FYI REALLY SEXY!!..."61 is the new middle age, Im gonna live til Im 120 or die trying!"
Then back to me again.....really you get me in a panel you can't shut me up! I asked about the Last Supper picture, if there was significance in the changes that were happening on the pic on Skiffy. the asked what changes...they really didnt seem to know....I didnt want to specify in case people were being really spoiler free...though about 4 people came to me after the Q+A To ask me what the changes were ;-) I asked "Or is it just RDM Frakking with our heads....?" The really didn't seem to know. Or were acting very well....Aaron(I think) said "I think he's frakking with you all"
Theeeeeeeen
The mic guy then said it was the final question and someone asked if it was true Eddie had a No-Cylon clause in his contract. Eddie laughed and said "No, I would be a cylon!" My friend Ian asked me after the panel if I thought the last quesiton was staged as Eddie gave yet again a great answer and a fab summation. I said to him that No, just Eddie was very good at answering questions asked and also saying what is obviously close to him. Eddie went on about how there should be no *race* that caucasion, african American etc...were all terms given years back and there are no races, it was just a term used to justify wars. This guy really should run for President...he is the most amazing orator. He ended by saying their should only be one race, The Human Race.
END.....LOTS OF CLAPPING....CHEERING......SQUEEEING AND HAPPY SHIPPERS. I caught up with
Hope all thats correct and ok for ya'll Ill get the Autograph session up tomorrow...hands aching now!!!!
