The Scene In The BSG Finale Where The Galactica And the Fleet Fly Into The Sun Was,For Me,Kind of Bittersweet. I Was Actually Kinda Teary-Eyed.
However, I Felt There Was Something Missing: As The Fleet Was Breaking Earth Orbit Towards The Sun, And The Classic BSG Theme Playing, There Should Have Been A Strong Narrative( It's A Pity That Niether Lorne Greene Or Patrick MacNee Are With Us,Anymore) Like This:
" Having Fled The Cylon Tyranny, The Last Battlestar,GALACTICA, Leads A Rag-Tag,Fugitive Fleet To It's Final Rest; Into A Star,Around Which Orbits A Shining Planet,Known As EARTH."
Either In Voice,Or Text, That Would Have Made That Scene Complete.
Any Thoughts On Who Could Read That?

Not A Bad Idea!
Richard Hatch would've been a good choice to read that, IMO. :)
I would've appreciated the voice over, as I am a huge fan of both TOS and Ron Moore's version. However, I am not sure that a voice over would've really been consistent with the way the newer show was done throughout the series.
Another Good Choice. That Message,In Either Voice Or Text, Still Would Have Been Appropriate, Since The Music From TOS Was Heard.
Those were my other two choices. Darth Vader's voice would have been a great spin! Yes, I miss Lorn Greene and Patrick MacNee too.
That's a neet idea. There are lots of good voices out there...Maybe Mr. Olmos would be most appropriate. He has a commanding voice and was the CO of the Battlestar Galactica. It could be reworded into past tense and be his final log entry for the Battlestar Galactica.
I Thought About Mr.Olmos; However, I Think That A Voice In The league Of a James Earl Jones, Or Morgan Freeman, Would Have Fit The Bill. That's Why Its Sad that Lorne Greene And Patrick MacNee are Both Gone; Their Voices Are Instantly Identifiable With BSG.
