APOLLO'S Famous Towel Scene from BATTLESTAR GALACTICA Episode 208: 'FINAL CUT':

"Final Cut," Battlestar Galactica While D'Anna interviews Viper pilots by their bunks, Apollo tries to introduce himself.'

Until now, fans of Jamie Bamber (Apollo On the Sci Fi Channel's Battlestar Galactica) had to make do with the awesome but short clip of Mr. Bamber almost losing his very small towel in a memorable scene from the episode "Final Cut" on the tv series "Battlestar Galactica." No more. In an effort to raise awareness of the plight of black bears killed to make the Queen's Guard's caps--it takes one whole bear to make a single cap--Jamie got naked for PETA. (scroll down)

Read the whole story: PETA UK:

Jamie Bamber has long been a firm favourite on the sci-fi scene, with his ever-exciting role as Lee "Apollo" Adama in Battlestar Galactica. And now he's wooing UK audiences as DS Matt Devlin in the new ITV1 drama Law and Order. There's nothing quite like fighting for justice and helping those in need – and always look really good doing it, of course!

It didn't surprise us one bit that Jamie is like that in real life too. That's why he bared his skin in PETA's newest ad to help save black bears killed for their fur. When Jamie learned how Canadian black bears are killed to make the Queen's Guards' ceremonial caps, the British-born actor jumped at the chance to help. "I initially decided to do the PETA ad because a great friend of mine in L.A., Lucy Davis, had just done a similar ad, and I love Lucy and it was a cause I didn't know about – I'll be honest. So as soon as Lucy opened my eyes, I was thrilled to join her and do my bit."

PROMETHEUS - #4 Official Full HD VIDEO Trailer NEW Ridley Scott 'ALIEN' Film, Michael Fassbender, Noomi Rapace #prometheus

PROMETHEUS 'Not a prequel" to 'Alien,' et al.

I'm OK with that.

Would have loved to see Sigourney in this but there really seems no place for her.

'Ridley Scott, director of "Alien" and "Blade Runner," returns to the genre he helped define. With PROMETHEUS, he creates a groundbreaking mythology, in which a team of explorers discover a clue to the origins of mankind on Earth, leading them on a thrilling journey to the darkest corners of the universe. There, they must fight a terrifying battle to save the future of the human race.'

Still excited about this!

Update! THE AVENGERS Key Art and Production Stills - EW Magazine Cover Scans #theavengers #marvel

SAMUEL L. JACKSON as Nick Fury and SCARLETT JOHANSSEN as Black Widow a/k/a Natasha Romanov  in MARVEL'S The AVENGERS:

 

Hulk Smash! Mark Ruffalo was an interesting choice for The Hulk but he's inhabited the persona and played Bruce Banner very convincingly. Lucky number 3 --we have ourselves a winner! (Also pictured: Jeremy Renner as Hawkeye.) SOURCE: EW Magazine

 

We saw Marvel's The Avengers on Friday night. At the end, the audience cheered, which doesn't happen too often. So, in its second week, The Avengers is still getting THAT kind of audience reception.  I am so glad Whedon is getting the recognition he deserves it on its own, and for his body of work thus far. I hope a whole new crop of Whedonites sprout.

Whedon has an awesomely loyal following. And this time, they brought ALL their friends.

PROMETHEUS - 3 MINUTE INTERNATIONAL TRAILER - Behind The Scenes VIDEO (4.30.12) #prometheus #screencaps SPOILERS

NOOMI RAPACE in RIDLEY SCOTT'S 'PROMETHEU  S':

PROMETHEUS - 3 MINUTE INTERNATIONAL TRAILER (4.30.12):

Apparently, the 'invitation' (an oft-repeated preview comment by the Noomi Rapace character) is from...Ridley Scott!

WARNING: This preview contains rather large SPOILERS. Not kidding. That said, if you've seen "Alien" and understand that semantics aside, PROMETHEUS is a prequel, then nothing should trouble you about the trailer. Ridley Scott and Co. can argue right up until Prometheus premieres that the film is "not a prequel," but think about it.  If he said yeah, it's just a prequel, would as many people be buzzing about it? Maybe. But why chance it? Surely the marketing guys wounldn't. Call it original (ish) and reap the rewards of a potentially massively successful scifi film. Its Ridley Scott. No matter what, there will be elements that will make it worthwhile. It could be magnificent. With Scott's 'Alien' and 'Blade Runner'  my two favourite science fiction films thus far, I would like nothing more.

A behind the scenes on Ridley Scott's incredible work. 20 years after Blade Runner, the visionary director returns to sci-fi movie with this 'Alien' prequel. The film, directed by Ridley Scott and starring Noomi Rapace, Charlize Theron, Michael Fassbender, Logan Marshall-Green, Idris Elba and Guy Pearce opens June 8, 2012.

Update! True Blood Season 5: Waiting Sucks - Sookie Alcide Lafayette VIDEO Screencaps #trueblood

Here it is helpfully established for us that this Sookie and Alcide scene was was filmed last December. Why is Sookie always so snarky to him?! Is it because she only goes for the really bad boys?

 

True Blood Season 5: Waiting Sucks - Sookie/Alcide VIDEO:

Found at Inside True Blood

If you have HBOGO, you can “have another bite” by checking out an extended version of that scene that includes Lafayette (Nelsan Ellis.)
EDIT/ This HBOGO True Blood season 5 sneak peek extendeds toLafayette's part of the convo  in which he makes clear to Alcide that he (and Sookie) are done with all things supernatural to which Alcide growls and insists that he is throwing Sookie 'a lifeline' and he asks her 'please' to take it. She responds with, ' I can't.' Duh-duh-duhn.

'Battlestar Galactica' - The Finale Episodes Promo (VIDEOS) - Canadian and British Promos (SPOILERS) #BSG

 

That is Gaius and he is with the rest of the volunteer rescue group. 

Seems like he's learned his way around a gun in the last few years in exile/war.

Battlestar Galactica Season 4.5 Season Final Part 2 - The Last Frakking Battlestar Galactica Special

Did you watch The Last Frakking Battlestar Galactica Special tonight? It was pretty great. A nice send-off. 
Katee  Sackhoff (Starbuck/Kara Thrace) can't think of anything about the show that she's glad about. Then she breaks into giggles.
Tricia Helfer (Six) is glad to have made friends firstly and gotten lots of work opportunities as well. She smiles a lot. They are both cute.

I'm going to watch it again as someone in my house chose to do laundry and the laundry area is really close to the teevee area. It's a small place.<grumble.>  Also, the dialogue and music on the show were not synced well. (Dialogue was swimming in the score making it hard to hear every single word.)

Add to that Jamie Bamber (Lee) especially who seemed to go out of his way to be incomprehensible--though James Callis (Baltar) got difficult for certain words as well. Notably absent from the interviews in the show: Aaron Douglas (Chief). It's America guys. When you speak about yourself/your show in interviews using  sound and no text* you simply must speak American for your Canadian or American audience. Mmk? Thx.

Oh yes. Unless they are frakking with us, that is Gaius (above) on the same turf as the people who volunteered on the attempted rescue mission. So I'm not supposing.

Also in the "BSG Last Frakking Special" tonight creator Ron Moore says quite plainly that Chip/Head!Six/Six in the Red Dress as well as other "Head!" characters, plus one assumes, Adama's house, were "angels," not chips (nor hallucinations).
