Having also seen the movie, I have to agree with most of the negative reviews. The archived footage with new scenes just didn't gel very well. It seem more like a patchwork that shouldn't have been patched at all. It might be different if all this back story were somehow incorporated into the original story arc but that will never happen. Final analysis: "Caprica" and "The Plan" should never had been made.
@jabber: I kind of agree on the not geling part. The meeting scene switches from non-wig yellowish haired Six to poofy blonde platinum wig Six back to non wig yellow haired Six again, for instance. It's very noticably different. #theplan
I should be watching this tomorrow night.I pre-booked it as I work in retail so tomorrow it will arrive.I will buy new DVD TV Stuff but as far as movies go I am buying them all used.
BSG is the last remake of a TV show I will go near.It had its moments and I did support it and buy products but I am done with BSG.What else will they milk next ? #theplan
I cannot be the only one who thinks this looks worse than the finale, can I?
What? Another hybrid? Oh, and more of the worst Cylon in the story, petulant child old man Oedipus; nah, just make hims the star of the whole thing. And why is no one involved in The Plan doing any publicity for it, eh? I mean, other than Eddie, who's just psyched someone finally gave him the chance to direct something with a budget (relatively speaking) after all these years, no one is out talking about it. Clearly they think it is terrible.
Combined with that abortion of a finale, this putrescence is an insult to the memory of the first two seasons. Clearly, Moore and Eick have detached themselves completely from this, other than to get some squid. #theplan
@Motoki: What would have been the point? As far as I'm aware, Lucy Lawless wasn't available for 'The Plan' shoot, and even clearing time for her scenes in Revelations/Sometimes A Great Notion required some nimble footwork.
Anyway, since 'The Plan' is basically back-fill on the first two seasons (where D'Anna appeared in precisely ONE episode) I don't think its necessarily a terrible thing even though I love Lawless and the character she played so well. #theplan
@Craig Michael Ranapia: Well they could have filled in what happened to reporter D'Anna (who was also in Downloaded but got edited out because they thought it too confusing to have two D'Annas and two Sixes). *shrug* #theplan
I hope they offer an explanation as to how "married" Simon ended up there. And gee, I guess Hera might not have been the first hybrid after all... #theplan
I have to admit, the fact that we are getting a bit more Simon makes this some what interesting to me. We have a lot of 6 and 8 and what ever Cavil and Xena. But Simon really never got any screen time. #theplan
Maxim's 2009 cover features Trica Helfer and Grace Park. Pics at the link. Link has 8 pictures, if someone pics up the hardcopy (!) the story has 46 pics in total (mostly small pics) I think. Link also has a 1:32 video of the photo shoot.
@Ruthless, If you let me: Oh good. It worked, and I was able to find it! (Though it was an odd road to find it.) Let's hope people check the tips box, before tip emails, because I want a hat tip.

I'll just say this: don't expect to see Roslin. She's not in it. #theplan

I haven't seen it yet but hear Lucy Lawless is not in it. Did they even bother to try and do body doubles from a distance? #theplan
