Ya know sometimes the fates shine on you and you get a brief moment in time that let's you know that you are not alone in this big bad wonderful world of entertainment. just 40 min. ago I was walking towards my bike on 4th street in Berkeley and I ran into the man that has re-invented science fiction; Mr. Ronald D. Moore. It was a very brief 5 maybe 10 seconds, but all in all I just gave him dap on the show (Battlestar Galactica for those of you who don't know) and wished him well. But to make this blog entry worth writing I will share the subtext of my greeting to him:
Jeff: (trying not to freak out) "Mr. Moore (my last name is Moore)
I love your show (whimper whimper) I made a video for your contest (whimper, whimper)
I listened to all your podcasts (sniff sniff) I just wanted to let you know that I think you're great...
I love you man!!
add a few more sniffling remarks and I think you will get the picture :)
But seriously, folks as an actor/filmmaker I have seen each season at least twice listened to each podcast and studied this show on how it is able to tell a story without giving too much exposition and not falling into a lot of traps that some shows fall into. And that is one of the reasons why I admire the cast and crew.
Anyhoo. Ron if you come across this site, I wish you well and I hope you, as well as all of your fellow writers out there, come up with a swift and fair solution to bring an end to this strike. We can't wait to see the ending of such a great series. Peace.
