I liked it, too. I think they got the old reveals out of the way (lizards, harvesting us, etc) because those wouldn't exactly surprise us at this point. I'm hoping they have different twists this time around that they'll hit us with.
i recently rewatched the original and they made the reveal very fast there too. i am pretty sure it was in the first 60-90 minutes. but it was definately in the first part of the mini.
i think having them have advance troops on earth ahead of time is a very good idea.
not thrilled with the angsty teen angle. but i love having tudyk as a villian.

I'm mixed on it right now,especially since i watch some of the original on Sci Fi the week before the new one.
Don't get me wrong this one is 1000 times better as far as effects,but you can only use that welll for so long before it gets old,look at Battlestar Galactica,that was a character driven show that happen to have special effects.If they can get a story going it might have a chance.

That means those writers are gonna have to make an extra effort.
