30 Days of Blake's 7 - day 11
Day 11: Best SFX / most woeful use of SFX
I'm not sure about the best, but I now have the S1 and S2 Blu-rays, and I'm really liking the new optional special effects. They're not obviously in-your-face new, just a lot better and seamlessly added, e.g. planets with atmospheres, more realistic starfields, and the shots of Space Command in particular were impressive, with pursuit ships on patrol.
The worst for me has always been the painted backdrop when Blake teleported to the asteroid in Voice From the Past - so amateurish, and also unnecessary as he could have just appeared in the building. I'm looking forward to seeing what they've done with that (despite mummified Travis) when I get to S2.
All the questions are on Tumblr.
