what amazes me that it sold out at the wall-mart that I work at in four days.
Say what? I guess the nostalgia factor is still there.

As for LLA, I think the time it took to make compared to what we actually got shows a poor ratio. Too little "new" compared to how long it took to get.

I cheered when I saw Dana Sterling and we got a reference to what happened to the 15th Squadron. It makes sense that they would have stayed to combat the Invid, and then made a tactical retreat upon seeing the impossible odds. We know that members of the 15th Squad eventually meet up with the Expeditionary Force since we see Dana in the comic Prelude to the Shadow Chronicles, and Louis Nichols joins Vince Grant in the Shadow Chronicles animation.
I also enjoyed the scene at the end with Sera and Lancer at the cabin. I do wonder though, if they would be able to settle into that kind of life. You have an Invid warrior princess, and a REF freedom fighter suddenly settling down to live happily ever after. I think it is what we would like to happen for the characters, but I doubt that the transition would be easy after all these two have seen.
The McKinney books did a good job of showing how difficult it was for Miriya to transition to human life after she married Max. I suspect that Sera would be in for a similarly tough transition. Lancer, too, may find it hard to leave the action and settle down. Generally these type of characters don't get the happy ending. They spend their lives fighting the battle, and then trying to escape the battle and find a life afterwards, only to have the battle catch up with them again. I would not be surprised to see Lancer and Sera's story end in tragedy, with the tragedy compelling Lancer or Sera back into the fight. It's not what I *want* to happen, mind you, but it seems to be what usually happens to characters whose lives have been defined by war.

I DON'T THINK ITS GOING TO BE THAT HAPPY. I THOUGHT SCOTT AND ARIEL BEING AN ITEM WOULD BRING DRAMA TO THE FLEET. BUT HAVING SOMETHING ELSE AROUND MAYBE WE COULD SEE A NEW CONFLICT BRINGING LANCER AND SERA BACK INTO ACTION.I'm happy that someone finally gave the two of them a happy ending. The McKinney books didn't seem to have the slightest bit of respect for EITHER of them, killing them both off without a single reason to do so.
OR NOT.

But both LLAs served a very nice objective, the farewell of the Bernard's team. While Mospeada LLA concluded its storyline, RT: LLA says goodbye to TNG but opening a new front for RTSC.
Anyway, both LLAs are standalone in each respective universe. Well done, HG.
