Slice of SciFi #101: Voicemail Show

March 27, 2007 By Summer Brooks 10 Comments

This is the show for our fans and listeners! We’re receiving so much voicemail and email feedback commentary that we can’t even fit all of it into it’s own show anymore. But that’s okay… Keep it coming!

Michael, Summer, Brian and Tim juggle the voicemail comments this week. We hear from a few more XM Radio listeners (and we are working on lessening the XM time delay), and we have a lot of BSG talk since we’re all still having “Heroes” withdrawals.

SPOILER ALERT!! Possible BSG Spoilers ahead!

  • XM Radio listener and truck driver Sandra comments on Steve Alten’s monster novels
  • XM Radio listener and truck driver Delores wants to know why the XM show has old news
  • Delores again, with a question about the long-abandoned movie adaptation of Elfquest
  • Michael in Nashville with info on the recreations of the lost Doctor Who episodes
  • Edmund comments on NBC’s new show, “Raines”
  • Mark in Memphis on Cylon speculation from BSG
  • The crew speculates on Saul and Ellen Tigh as Cylons
  • Christine from Michigan on the uproar over Starbuck’s death
  • Super Scott on BSG speculations
  • Ed from Texas with feedback on comments on the new Trek movie
  • Super Scott on the new Trek movie
  • Wookie from Memphis on Starbuck’s death
  • Super Scott with more BSG commentary on “All this has happened before, and all this will happen again”
  • Gazerbeam understands while “Storm Front” didn’t lead off the Dresden Files series
  • Mike has a Wonder Woman moment
  • Brian from DragonCon TV speculates that “I Think I Love My Wife” may be science fiction after all
  • Michael in Nashville asks Mike about his Spiderman 3 reservations, and Mike gleefully details his reasons why: the continuity has been intentionally munged
  • Walter from LA still loves BSG, but has issues with storylines from the second half of Season 3

Submitting Listener comments: If you have any suggestions or comments, please let us know. You can now leave a voicemail comment in the comments section of the show, or call, or email Michael with a comment you’ve recorded yourself!

    All our talk about BSG on this VM show was recorded before the Sunday night season finale of show…so, now we know Starbuck is alive and who four of the Final Five are…whereas, when we recorded this VM show, we didn’t know that yet….so all the speculation is even more interesting taking that in mind.

    Uh……. Can’t we say that Starbuck is our 5th? That was the clear message I got, unless Lee is seeing her the way that Baltar sees 6

    Anything is possible in the convoluted mind and creative genius that is Ronald D. Moore. 🙂

    And yes Ed, SCI FI moving BSG to Sunday has screwed us up with VM. We tried to convince them of how important it was for Slice VM to keep it on Friday night, but for some reason they didn’t listen. 😉

    Did Michael say that Drizzt was going to get the moive treatment? Hmm. I have to think about my reaction to that for a minute.

    YES! YES! YES! OH SWEET FRKAKING GOD YES!!!!!!!

    Considering Tigh’s age I am in agreement with Ed.

  6. Michael in Nashville says

    March 27, 2007 at 6:58 pm

    Mike–Ron Moore has stated somewhere that Kara could be a hallucination like Lee and he left that part delibarately vague to keep interest up and speculation going during the long hiatus.

  7. Ed from Texas says

    March 27, 2007 at 3:42 pm

    I’m not convinced that they’re cylons yet. Moore pretty well lied to us in the podcast about killing off Starbuck, so I see no reason to just believe him in that newspaper interview now. Tigh’s age is going to be difficult to explain and Hera becomes much less important if Tyrol’s kid is also a half-cylon hybrid.

    You know, moving BSG to Sunday’s really screws with the recording on Saturday, publish the following week production schedule.

    And, in other news, Mennenga has declared me a Super Geek(tm)!!! Woo-hoo!!

    Hey all,

    I saw the preview that had most of the Sand Man tidbits, which I believe Micheal was referring to. My impression from the trailer (which I’m sure you could find online) was not that Peter’s uncle was killed by the Sand Man (in effect blowing continuity from the get go), rather the thug who killed his uncle became the Sand Man in some sort of prison experiment sometime after the first movie.

  9. Michael R. Mennenga says

    Ah……. But the thug was killed in the first movie. Spidey let him fall to his death and thus started Peter’s crime fighting nature.

    I’m still very nervous about this movie, but I’ll give it a chance.

  10. Brian says

    March 29, 2007 at 1:10 pm

    Oh enough about Spidey 3. Let’s hear more about Drizzt Do’Urden movies. 😀
