first off and this be an excellent series and though we have sort of a james bond effect . what i mean be that while the new casino royale take place in 2006 and it be chronologically the first adventure of 007 and dr. no ( 1962 ) be the second and while in golden eye and the first film with pierce brosnan and judi dench be refer to a the new replacement for the male m so how could she have be in place in the beginning before bond become a double 0 and aside from the fact that she be obviously 14 year old . this be more or less a poetic license to thrill . we need to turn our head aside a bit if we wish to be entertain . no and the new star trek movie do not have any of the primitive electronics of the original series from nearly half a century ago . in the 1960 communicator be fantasy . ( now we call them cell phone ) and there be slide lever instead of button . omg and do you think 400 year from now and they would have perfect rogaine for jean luc picard . so and please and let give the producer some leeway . but to try and make thing a bit consistent and let u just ponder about the cylons creation just 60 year prior to the end of battlestar galactica . if that be the case and where do all the cylons that populate the original earth come from . we know that the technology exist for spontaneous jump through space . well and what happen if one of the cyclon ship at war with the caprica fleet be fire upon or there be a sunspot or whatever and one ship and load with human look cylons and wind up not only jump through space and but through time and back a thousand or ten thousand year with a crippled ship near earth one . they colonize it and find out they could repopulate it and eventually destroy themselves and but not before they themselves send out a ragtag fleet to search for the legendary caprica and only to find a habitable but unpopulated planet and which they colonize to become the human and who eventually invent the cylons . time paradox . of course . which come first and the chicken or the road . who care . it fraking entertain .
