Oiled up arms and squinchy faces

So I had all this meta about Rapture (full of musings on the love quadrangle, the actual advancement of the plot, and the many awesome things revealed in this ep) instead I'm going to point y'all to the wisdom of others, and go straight for the shallow spoilerific picspam, hehe.

A lot of arm porn and not nearly enough pretty faces...

Dudes, seriously! These are probably the least pretty caps I have ever seen of my very very pretty OT3: sexy glistening arm shots everywhere and a lot of awkward faces.

Epic battle for King of the Arm Porn title begins

I think Lee wins for the shiny factor in the first round





But once they're in the field, I've got Sam at 2 arm porn shots and Lee at just 1...







And this is where the FAAAAAAACE factor comes in, because it's a toss up between Lee's prune face and Sam's worst-hair-ever. I'm going to call it even and given them each -1 points for this round.





Round 4 on Galactica's hangar deck: Pretty even match again but I'm going to give the point to Sam for showing us both guns





Last round goes to Lee for pulling off Emo Arm Porn



That's right folks: a tie. Can't help it y'all. THEY ARE BOTH SO DAMN PRETTY.


And, Look! Tandem arm porn! The knee-nudge and the buddy-cop camaraderie here just took my OT3 to a whole new level.






WTF, there wasn't a single pretty cap of Kara in the bunch
On the one hand, I give huge points to Katee for going for the maximum impact in her portrayal of pain and anger. She's a very pretty woman and I really like that she's not so vain of an actress that she objects to being filmed in an unflattering light.
On the other hand, I don't have any pretty Kara pics to add to my picspam...*pouts*


Kara with guns





Kara with Dee





Kara in pain



Kara on drugs



The prettiest Kara-shot from the whole episode featured this weirdo plastered-back hairdo that I wasn't sure what to think of.



Ugh. I'm going to have to do an entire picspam of just pretty Kara/Katee shots to counteract all this face-squinching and bad hair.


Prettiest of the episode goes to...D'Anna

Lucy looked gorgeous throughout the entire Final-Five scene, Farrah-bangs and all. gah, so pretty.

One of the reasons I liked this episode was because everyone looked so delightfully haggish in it!

I love when BSG pulls no punches and de-glams everyone. Helo was looking especially bumpy and pasty, n'est-ce pas?

LOVE IT! points for arm porn. LOL! I loved that little thing Lee did to Sam's knee, two punches? what was that? I dont know, but it was great. Sam had some serious bad hair in that pic, I missed that. LOL Kara definitely wasn't looking pretty, but I agree D'Anna was radiant.

Love your picspam!!! It ROCKS!!! :)

It's really awesome to read your posts on this and see the pics without any clue what's going on. I don't know who Sam is at all, but he's very pretty.

Although, dude, it totally looks like they were oiling up for some wrestling in some of those shots.

Totally! I thought about adding Helo to the picspam but [livejournal.com profile] wisteria_ did an awesome job of showing his "meep" and "wibble" in her picspam...

I'm all for the de-glammed cast. If it was just pure pretty all the time I'd probably develop gout or diabetes or some physical manifestation of COMPLETE DECADENCE.

Thanks! I don't know what was up with the knee-punches--slash? soldierly camaraderie? barely contained alpha-male-aggresion?--but it was pure awesome.

haha--I am only to glad to share the fangirl side of my brain with you :)

And Sam is soooo pretty. He's Kara/Starbuck's husband (who she is cheating on with the other pretty boy). Pretty much a win-win situation there in terms of the eye candy, hehe.

I'm sure it was supposed to be sweaty because they were on a hot, stuffy planet, but DUDE it seriously looked like they were getting ready to throw down in some kind of steamy baby-oil beefcake wrestling. gah...drooling ensues.

The arm porn and pretty, pretty men were insane *swoons*

And Kara was in a lot of pain, but I think she still had a few beautiful moments. Especially at the end with Helo.

If I wasn't so tired, I'd take you up on a challenge and find the best Kara pics in Rapture to prove you wrong. Girlfriend is always hot (as least in latte's universe!!!)

Thanks for posting the eye candy!

Oh, Emo Arm Porn for the winner! ;-) But yes, Kara's squinchy face and bad hair were a bit disappointing really. The boys won this ep, I feel--what with all that knee-nudging and all! ;-)

I loved the scene at the end with Helo. She can seduce me just as easily with the teasing banter as with the hot sweaty angst--I'm easy like that :)

There's definitely a pretty Kara picspam in the works, I'm just waiting for someone to cap the ep in more detail 'cuz I'm lazy...But I'll gladly accept latte's hottest Kara pics anytime!

Hehe, I take solace in the overwhelming prettiness of the boys this time around, but I have faith in K (and the previews for this week definitely hold promise of some serious pretty).

So The BF went into the kitchen to make me breakfast, thus giving me a chance to click for arm porn. Teh hotness is insane, but I did notice throughout the show that they couldn't manage to give nice and pretty faces :( Gah! And Jamie needs to remember to cheat front so we can get two guns and not just one!
(I totally love D'Anna's Farrah hair!)

Ooooh. Your icon is extremely pretty.

Haha, if only N knew what he was getting into by leaving you alone with your computer, right? On the other hand, I'm a big fan of breakfast-made-for-me-by-others.

And Jamie needs to remember to cheat front so we can get two guns and not just one! shit, that made me snorfle--thank god no one else was in the room to witness :)
