Battlestar Galactica: Blood and Chrome, the prequel to everyone’s favorite scifi space opera that already has a different prequel will finally get a release, like two years after we last heard anything about it. And it’s going to premiere as 10 webisodes for Machinima starting November 9th. So, yeah. Webisodes. But don’t fret, because in 2013, SyFy will get around to putting the whole thing up as a finished movie for one of their films slots, displacing Dinobutt vs. Megapotato. Then after that you can see the unrated version on DVD. Which will feature unrated toaster frakking? Maybe? I guess we’ll have to buy the DVD. Or wait until someone watches it and reports in.
The plot for those of you who don’t even remember this long-ago announced rejected series/pilot:
Battlestar Galactica: Blood & Chrome takes place in the 10th year of the first Cylon war. As the battle between humans and their creation, a sentient robotic race, rages across the 12 colonial worlds, a brash rookie viper pilot enters the fray. Ensign William Adama, barely in his 20’s and a recent Academy graduate, finds himself assigned to the newest battlestar in the Colonial fleet… the Galactica. The talented but hot-headed risk-taker soon finds himself leading a dangerous top secret mission that, if successful, will turn the tide of the decade long war in favor of the desperate fleet.
