Ellis talks sci-fi

Warren Ellis, in his lastest diatribe from his email mailling list, has a bit to say about Battlestar Galactica. Keep in mind that he's seen the whole first season because the British are better than we are.
Incidentally? GALACTICA sags quite
badly in the middle of its run, but
picks the slack up very well in the
last three episodes, also taking on a
tone of strangeness not a million
miles away from NEON GENESIS
EVANGELION. It's not a bad show at
all.
In Jeffland, he just said the magic words. I'm excited to see how it turns out. He also has this to say in regards to Star Trek
(One of these days, when I'm really
drunk, I'm going to tell you how
STAR TREK THE MOTION PICTURE
is the first full-on postmodern sf
movie. But I'm going to have to be
really really drunk, and I'll deny
having written it afterwards.)
So those of you who have any interest in Trek should hunt Warren down and start buying him pints. It's the right thing to do.
