- Battlestar Galactica S3E04 Exodus Pt.2 clips set to the track "Storming New Caprica" by Bear McCreary. Music doesn't completely match that of show because of variations in notes and editing. I was getting tired of all the clips with rock, techno, and god forbid rap covering this part of the episode so I made my own using THE ORIGINAL SCORE. I didn't use the original track to give it all a nicer flow and copyright reasons ;P
years later, and STILL the best eight minutes in television.
Rainya Bridges Years later and still the best series on television. SO SAY WE ALL.
Rainya Bridges So say we all
The best scene here is when Lee looks back one last time to say thank you. And you can almost feel the Pegasus saying back to him "Go, I got this"
+Zach Zier
Should have saved the PEgasus... she was stronger!
Will T But the series was called "Battlestar Galactica"
True they could have renamed the Pegasus the Galactica afterward. In honor of her.
+Zach Zier And Galactica whispers, "Well done, Sister. Thank you."
+Will T that would just ruin it.
Taiko drums and bagpipes... What other composer has ever had the GIGANTIC FRAKKING COHONES to even CONSIDER those two together, I ask you? Just the audacity of that alone is fucking epic.
Bear McCreary Frakking ROCKS!!
+Smiddy Wesson yet the show wasn't popular when it was on the air until AFTER they finished the series. bit ironic, no? ;)
+Smiddy Wesson It's all about the beard of awesomeness. DS9's Ben Sisko didn't get his balls back till he shaved his head and grew some facial hair. Then he became Star Trek's most badass captain.
+Smiddy Wesson you mean left wing due to the lack of capitalism and money in 24th century federation? ;)
Him and Ramin Djawadi.... I love the way they do their jobs..
Adama jumping in and out of the atmosphere of fraking new caprica... possibly the most amazing and memorable moment of this show!
One thing I always wondered is what would it be like if the Galactica jumped INTO the mass of oncoming Cylon fighters? Would that sudden appearance of mass and twisting of space shred the incoming, Or would they suddenly splat against the hull like so many bugs on a semi windshield? Either way - be a helluva spectacle.
I was amazed bu that entire show. Unfortunately season 4 and the rest of 3 was rather boring but this? Man this was awsome awsomeness!
Lawrence O Needs more exclamation points.....LOL
Lawrence O Whoever came up with this idea for a plan is a mad genius.
aside from when the peggy jumped in and started kicking some ass :D
This episode is one the finest pieces of sci-fi I have ever seen.
I would also suggest Severed Dreams from Babylon 5. The first show to receive a sci-fi Nebula award for one episode. :-)
This episode is one of the finest pieces of *television* I have ever seen. BSG had its misses, but when it was on point, it was fucking ON POINT.
what misses? Greatest show of all time. IMO
That episode where they were all boxing each other was pretty awful. House is right. When BSG was at its best, there wasn't much that could touch it, but they had some serious misses.
Season Four was a little weird it kinda got hard to follow.
I love how even in its destruction the Pegasus still creates hell for the cylons as each piece of its massive hull crashes in to the basestars!
Ernesto Rodriguez Yep, it's like the ship is alive and giving the Cylons one last kick in the ass before it dies.
Apollo even thanks the ship before he leaves, remember?
+Ernesto Rodriguez "Yo toasters! When you get to Hell, make sure to tell 'em the Pegasus sent ya."
+Ernesto Rodriguez Yea and I still don't understand why he sacrificed the ship, he could have swing round again for the other basestars and jump the ship out, hit and run tactic
+Sheppard Galactica would of taken a lot more damage by then. Pegasus only had a handful of people to evacuate. Lee left his vipers to protect the rest of the fleet.
Matthew Burtis
You do not understand
the first basestar was destroyed by Pegasus and it gave Galactica time to jump and Pegasus should have turn away and jumped herself
4:48: Hello. My name is Battlestar Pegasus. You killed my people. Prepare to die.
inconthievable!
This episode is the pinnacle of the masterpiece that BSG was as a series. I wish I could bottle the feeling I had when I first watched this.
adama maneuver. So brilliant, I miss this program.
I wanted to cry when the Pegasus blew up. =(
Just to be sure, in a few hundred years when we do have a working star drive......
The Adama Manuever will be lesson one in combat operations.
That atmosphere jump though. good god.
You know why they gave Adama command of a Battlestar? He needed it just to move his BALLS around.
The Galactica jumping in while bag pipes are playing! Awesomeness!
2:13 - the moment I was looking for. It lined up almost exactly if not actually perfectly. I remember shitting a brick when this moment aired.
+Kiwaldo It was 4:45 for me. Just about perfect!! The drums made the whole scene even better. Bear McCreary is a flippin genius.
If only one could turn back, because EVERY awesome moment of this episode was ruined for me, as mother was in the room challenging me on bogus orders on the cable bill that I OBVIOUSLY didn't do. She couldn't tell that I was engrossed in the program on the TV, and like any mother, keeps talking and talking and talking until she gets a response. I'M WATCHING MY FRAKKING SHOW!!! ... I will never get that moment back T~T
Lee turns when leaving the command area and thanks Pegasus...That never gets old. And even if it isn't real, it never gets easier to watch. Pegasus ftw.
Damn you Lee!!!
Thank you Lee.
Adamas being Adamas.
Very well done with just the music. Just having the music and the visual action really gets your heart pumping. Bear McCreary really proved his salt with this series.
Galactica went through a hell of a beating in that series. Still the best SciFi in the last 15 years. The way they showed the wear and tear progressively getting worse through the entire series run was beautiful.
I know it was great. That scene where they're doing dye-penetrant of the structural members and Chief Tyrol said, "Her bones are rotten". That broke my heart. She may be a creation of fiction, but damn she was beautiful.
NorthForkFisherman she's broke her back, she'll never jump again was also sad
GrissomLovesSara- OK, you had to go there (cries like baby over fictional spacecraft).
NorthForkFisherman Admiral and Commander playing as you cry
GrissomLovesSara(oh dem feels!)
@redsun its so true. Adama jumping in and out of the atmosphere of the new caprica .. thts just a jawdroppin moment. i remember watching that very scene the very first time. at awe. what a great series!
This will always be one of my top 5 scenes from any series or movie. Tigh has to kill his wife, the raptors do the decoy maneuver, adama maneuver, ftl down and galactica is doomed.... then Pegasus sacrifices itself to save the day, lee thanking the Pegasus... my god. I always cry in pity and pride when watching it.
I remember seeing this when it first aired. 04:20-04:44 in this clip had me thinking the Galactica was going to be destroyed. Real edge-of-the-seat drama.
At 04:45 I remember seeing that shot and going "no WAY!" By this point I was on my feet.
And then at 04:45 my faith in Ronald Moore was restored, when I saw the Battlestar Pegasus come storming in all guns blazing. (Absolutely fantastic entrance too. Real hardcore. And the music was just perfect.)
Weirdly, this is better without dialog. Bravo to whomever posted this.
gods, i frakkin' love those drums...
One of the best calls the Producers made; ditch the symphony orchestra and all that, keep it human, keep it earthy, keep it primitive, and Bear McReary did an awesome job, one of the best soundtracks ever.
The Cylons never had a word for surrender until hey met William Adama!
Hands down one of the absolute best battle scenes of ANY kind ever filmed. When Galactica is falling out of the sky and goes FTL right before impact, man that is some great stuff right there and then there's Pegasus coming out of the shadows to save the day and give her life for Galactica and the colonists, it just doesn't get any better or more dramatic than that. Fracking awesome!!
Unpopular opinion: I liked this show better than The Wire and I LOVED The Wire (and Babylon 5).
Binge watched BSG with my brother from late 2008-summer 2009 and I've been ruined for all other media. Its been 7 years since it ended and it's probably the most powerful story I've ever watched and I include film in that and I've (supposedly so they say) good taste. It did the epic and intimate with equal craft and its an honest to god life changing (if you let it) study on what it means to be alive and human nature and how best to respond to the trials life throws at us and how we all are striving to get/stake out a small measure of peace.
Well done Ron Moore, David Eick and company, you magnificent supersonic bastards.
So say we all
I love this show almost as much as you do but the sad truth is that this show is just a space version about the book of mormon
Jeff Allen f**k mormons. It ruined it for me
Jeff Allen Are you by any chance a mormon?
yes i am not. How did you know?
One of the finest videos ever made of one of the finest hours in television. Thank you.
Best 8 mins in TV history, still gets me pumped up.
Chuck Norris prays to his god, Admiral Adama, every day for power and wisdom.
R.I.P Pegasus, going out like a boss - killing 4 battlestars in the process.
they are argos class basestars - some person 6 years later
This is one of my favorite tracks of the entire five soundtracks. You did a great job editing the action to the track. I wish it were HD. I love this track and how it could be the soundtrack to an ancient naval battle. Of course, by the end of the series, we learn that, indeed, it was.
8 minutes of goose bumps, bewilderment and a world without top and bottom! Love BSG
To this day, the song, this video and the entire episode it was made from give me goosebumps.
Easily the best SciFi series of the last 20 years, and we could debate its place in the wider timeframe for a very long time I suspect. And unlike much of the other stuff, it wasn't just about the battles and the FX, although this clip proves they got it so very right in that respect. No, it was the fact that you got wrapped up in the characters, and that they were given dialogue that made sense, in situations that made sense. Remember when Petty Officer Dualla had what looked like a nice date with Apollo, all smiles and happy, then she just went up to her locker, pulled out her sidearm and blew her own brains out? You wouldn't get *that* in Star Trek or Stargate. BSG was the reason I finally upgraded to a good Blu Ray player and got rid of the DVD machine- I bought the full & complete box set and it really does make a difference, so much better in picture and sound than the broadcast version.
I just wish Ronald D. Moore had been given a proper crack at expanding the universe; "Caprica" was not, I think, what he originally intended, it plays and feels like two separate shows stuck together, and he-sort of- confirms that in the disc extras. "Blood and Chrome", I thought was a great pilot, and if they had kept that standard up, or better, then it would have been really good. But, we live in the era of the number crunchers, the beancounters, the people with no vision, and it's sad.
***** The really tragic thing for me was that BSG revealed some fine junior actors amongst its extensive ensemble. They plus the main stars got to stretch themselves with meaty characters and dialogue. Instead of being treated like walking talking props as they so very often are by main studio productions. There is little about now to give them that kind of freedom. The only one I can think of at the moment is "Outlander", yet another Ron production.
sonofcy I haven't seen Outlander, although it's set in, and much of it is made here in Scotland. Ronald D. Moore's bearing on the project would impose a certain level of quality though, right from the start. :)
It is not a book I would read - heavily liked by women though, most of its fans are hardcore - but again the ensemble is large, excellent and you can see that they are enjoying it. The performances are some of the finest I've seen since BSG and some of the episodes truly are brutal. Much more so than BSG. Again McCreary shines with the musical score. If you like BSG, there is a good chance you will like Outlander. However to watch it in the UK you will have to watch it on Amazon Prime or take the "Avon" route.
I'm so happy you got the track in sync with the adama maneuver , LOVE THIS!!!
Ok. Im pulling out my set & starting this entire series all over again!!! This episode was EPIC!!! Still got excited watching it!!
I am so glad you made this, even if it was 7 years ago. This was my favorite part of BSG, and I LOVE when Galactic falls and the vipers are launched!
Hot Dog, the unsung hero
not only was he a great pilot he helped repopulate LOL
OMgosh, by the Lords Of Kobol. Such an amazing moment. Such a gotcha in the feels and in the brain at the same time. Love the music you put this with, Obviously a perfect fit since that's what it was meant for.
This has got to be the greatest battle scene I have ever seen in movie or television series.
GOOSEBUMPS!!! i discovered this awesome tv series a few weeks ago. yep, i know...i was blind, but know i see.im loving every episode and this particular part is upcoming 2morrow, but i can t resist 2 watch...gorgeous.
after just having the drive that my entire battlestar was on fail.... I THANK YOU SIR!!! sold my box set... but by the gods.. ill download em again. And yes, i shed a tear at poor gaius saying he was a farmer at heart... towards the end. SO SAY WE ALL!!
I always loved the arrival of Pegasus, it's looking dire for Adama and the crew then all of a sudden a missile zooms by then another and another till she comes into view giving the full fucking business to the Cylon basestars.
The more I think about it, the jump into the atmosphere makes me think of the Apollo program and here's why. Only Humans could get away with some effed up stunt like that. If people really knew how primitive the Apollo spacecraft were, they'd understand. I say this jokingly, but that is why no hostile aliens have invaded Earth. You do not screw around with people crazy enough to make this shit work. The Cylons were too close to humans to get the memo.
Again, your the Man!! I agree with your assessment. We are primitive and crude. And if you want to screw with us, well, Gods help you. This scene has so many levels of survival, guts, and just out right, Ballsiness!!! Cheers!
Robert Milton
The human race gets across land by setting off hundreds of explosions within a metal coffin with wheels. We achieved flight by setting fire to highly explosive fuel and squirting it behind us. Our Space program involved sticking ourselves on the end of a nuclear missile and aiming roughly in the destination, and our method of combat consists of "make holes in them until they stop working".
That's why the aliens anal probe us, they want to find out how to get gigantic balls too.
Jaina Hodgson That is hilarious!
We are the only race that built machines that act like birds. If an alien was only looking at our tech, they'd get pretty scared, with our threat of launching every nuclear warhead at our self just to say "I'm taking you down with me." in case of invasion.
Don't mess with a race crazy enough to do that shit
Thank you for posting this with the music that's meant to be played
Yup. I should have remembered that one. Well, it's been a long time (decades!) since I've seen it. I'll have to check it out again.
Thanks for reminding me.
I have to admit that I loved Hotdogs comment in the episode when he was in the Viper tubes, as Galactica was screaming towards the ground, just before he hit the launch key.
Just the deadpan way he quipped "Well...this will be different!' before being blasted out into a sea of fire as Galactica dropped like a rock...
Yes...what a great video. The Adama maneuver was awesome!!!!! Dropping into the atmosphere like that...crazy.
The scene with pegasus's suicide run always bring tears to my eyes. Coupled with the music it makes me cry. A brilliant video congratulations
Part 2 from Troy
I totally loved the FTL jump into New Caprica's atmosphere. Pure F****** genius. That's all I'm going to say about that. What my post I really about is the pure talent of Richard Paige, the one that put this together. With not a word spoken, and the music chosen he has captured every emotion and climax of action from that episode. Well done, and this is the type of endeavor of the finest ilk whereas I may subscribe. Lastly, may the Gods favor you... So say we all.
Nice video. My life seems empty without BSG. sigh.
I bet a toaster wouldn't have been able to come up with this rescue plan let alone pull it off.
H,FY!
You did a really nice job! Love the fact you were able to edit out all the extraneous stuff like the Starbuck and Gaeta scenes. Good stuff!
The music change at 3:34 always gives me chills.
On the other hand, the man's got balls of steel.
Even with both, there's no way they could have fought them all off. The only way they won was because of the surprise of the Pegasus; if they'd started out together, there would be no saving either of them. They couldn't risk losing both ships, leaving the fleet defenseless altogether.
I have never seen a scene more badass than that one, and half the credit goes to the music. Holy HELL were there some amazing decisions that I'm so happy they made. Okay, nerding out over. Love the video, dude.
Fantastic work Yoda, well done!!
I think this is the episode where the series jumped the shark. It reached its absolute zenith at this point, then fell to final five plotline, cyclon mesiah/hera and the whole starbuck non sense. When I saw this episode it was epic in its daring and ambition. Still is epic years later. I cry a little that there is nothing in SciFi or TV for that matter that comes close.
I wonder what's worse, watching the Columbia or Pegasus go down.
Best episode in recent history that I can think of, in any series.
"You did it, you brought them home Saul"
"Not all of them"
Heartbreaking
One of the most epic scenes in the whole series...
2:13 still gives me goosebumps every time i hear it....
That Pegasus outta nowhere gets me every time
THANK you: for NOT adding '...rock, techno, and god forbid rap…' to a scene that DOESN'T need anyone's 'help' to make it 'better.'
Bear McCreary's music, and that PLUNGE Galactica makes is AWESOME enough.
Possibly the greatest video on UA-cam!
I miss this series so much...
1:30 I love the ecclectic array of guns--AR variants, an undisguised AK, maybe a Beretta 12S, several others. I remember Starbuck having a good collection at her apartment on Caprica. Apparently the Articles of Colonization had quite a Second Amendment.
2:10 The BattleBrick GalactiBoulder.
" Thank you. " What else can you say to a mighty warship that has given anything and everything she had because you asked it of her.
The Pegasus was the hot cheerleader you lusted after. The Galactica was your best female friend you ended up realizing you were actually in love with.
WOW! Had goosebumps watching that. EPIC.
Although it is fiction.. "The Adama Manouvre" is ingenious and is done completely parallel to the teachings of Sun Tzu. If anyone has read it, they will find that the aspect of risk and gain has carefully been implemented in Adama's tactics.
He risked the Galactica along with the crew and himself. He lost the Pegasus, but gained the rescue of his people.
Absolutely great job.
The best space battle scene in history
She was one hell of a ship, and she went out full throttle guns blazing.
Pegasus. Manly tears shed. :(
perfect, just perfect
that airdrop though... fuckin EPIC!
Really good, well done!!
Still the best scifi series i ever experience.
One of the best BSG videos on UA-cam. This video is hardly even pieced together it's a full run of the escape and the music is the actual score that was playing (in real time) during this the scene of escape. But I know what you mean in general, some of these guys get out of hand with the music.
This is such a KICK ASS moment! Period!!
Ole Peggy was a true star of battle. Took out three base stars in one fight, one of which even after her death.
To Bear McCreary. You are the man!
Very nice. I was a bit annoyed initially by your own music track instead of the original soundtrack and dialogue, but you managed to make it fit perfectly with the battle. Excellent work really
I actually screened this episode to a couple guys who were going to Annapolis, one on the Navy track, the other as a Marine. They thought it was fucking genius. The Marine's only beef was that he felt Galactica could have introduced more of its own ground forces into play than just one Raptor full of Colonial Marines.
Hey Cylons, when you go to hell...oh wait, you don't have souls. You're artificially made.
FRAK YEA!
@Olympicnut in the episode they clearly state that the FTL is non functioning on the pegasus. Lee wanted to have the pegasus jump after Galactica did. That is the train they decided to ram the Basestar
The spinoff show that followed didn't have enough publicity, I didn't even know it was on TV until it was rerun.
Do you mean Caprica? That show was too slow moving for me, I just couldn't get into it.
Look, I'm a Trekker, but I also loved such shows as Babylon 5 and of course Battlestar Galactica. THIS was the single best battle sequence ever, and that includes the original Death Star battle, the final battle against the Dominion and B5 vs the Earth Alliance, which all were just full of toasty exploding goodness. Probably the closest I've seen just for sheer "holy crap" value was probably the battle at the River Rauros in Two Towers (where Boromir died), but this is number one.
You know, I LOVED this show, damn near cried when it ended. But, when Galatica Jumped in and Col.Ty and the chief looked up I tried to think of how I would have felt or thought seeing her falling like that. To me it would have been like looking at a Gods flaming hand coming down to save his childern in there hour of need. Atleast...that was my first thought. Second thought was...HOLY S*** Thats Epic!
Best 8 minutes I've spent on youtube today 10/7/12.
I was instantly hooked on this version of BSG. I wish I had my own Viper Mark II.
You can if you play the game. lmao
She went thery way Cain would want to - Dying while taking the enemy with her.
She was a Beast all right!
(Cain too)
I love how they abandoned pegasus
and it could still jump
Great score !
I liked all the series in this franchise. :)
Excellent
First time commenting in a while. Some people saying that the re-entry flames from Galactica are unrealistic. I just wanted to point out that in the new canon, Galactica is nearly a mile long, and that if you scale Galactica up from something like the USS Enterprise, it probably has a mass approaching a million tons. If you introduce something of that size into the atmosphere at a great height, it's going to produce a serious amount of friction as it starts to fall. Furthermore, direction in space is relatively arbitrary, so it's not unreasonable to suggest that Galactica could have been moving at great speed perpendicular to it's 'length' when it entered (and exited) FTL. Even if it had a vertical velocity of zero when it entered the atmosphere, it's worth noting that although Galactica looks like it's close to the ground in this footage, it's so huge that even many miles up, it would still appear as a very large object in the sky (suggesting that it is higher and falling faster than appears). I don't think the re-entry flames are all that unreasonable.
You just survived a purge. Adama's last flight, Death of Roslin, etc are gone. Only this one remains.
