No problem. And it took my brain this long to notice the ROTJ homage in that shot. Considering I hated the snap zooms and shaky cam on the BSG reboot, that zoom oddly doesn't bother me at all.

First Order... Wasn't the Empire called "First Choice" in Backstroke of The West? ;)

 The Shaky Cams and Snaps zooms never really bothered me with the BSG reboot because I saw it as a totally new *product*

Because this film is meant to be a sequel, I think they should tone down what they CAN do today to fit in a bit more with what could not be done when the original came out.

It's not to say I don't see the success in what they are achieving I have to say I am actually rather optimistic about all that I have seen so far I really like everything else about the sequence I have seen apart from that weird camera move as the falcon does the loop and the snap zoom.

I am not nit picking either I think if they could give it back the sweeping and gracious moves we are used to, I think it would be an  all out winner it's the only fear I have that there could be a lot of this type of stuff?... There might not be however.  Let's just wait and see... I give it a very good stamp overall.
