they should have adapted the old theme! it was much better
I liked the viper in BG more than the x wings in star wars!!
sooo much better this way – amazing theme
The New Version Is Awesome !
I think Generation X-ers would love this. I’m one. Goosebumps, brother…goosebumps.
I still think they should have used this theme.
Me too, but I was really estatic the few times they did play it throughout the series!
No way. Don’t get me wrong it’s a wonderful song and I am pleased RDM used the song throughout the new show but as the opener, no way. It just doesn’t fit with the tone of the series at all. I was watching this clip and I was totally thrown off: there are scenes of mass slaughter and hellish battle and there’s a trumpet playing as if it’s a party. It’s kind of like the end credit music for West Wing. It’s tonally inappropriate, IMO.
You’re right, it wouldn’t have fit has the opening theme. But it’s such a shame that they discarded the old theme almost entirely in the new show. I know they used it as the “Colonial Anthem” but that was played only a couple times throughout the entire series. I think they should have at least used the old theme as a motif when something good happens to the survivors. The old theme represents BSG as a whole to me and the new show feels kind of empty without it, IMO.
reminds me ot startrek or something lol.. they have such noble captains.. i dont like startrek..lol
