Somehow capping 'The Tao of Rodney' didn't quite work out the way I liked; it's for such a big part about the movement, about the dialog, about a complete scene, that I couldn't find satisfaction in capping. The following scene worked rather nicely though, with all the different expressions of John and Rodney. I especially love John's 'seriously folks, I couldn't make this shit up...' face, and the way Rodney checks with John every few seconds to see if he's sounding very ridiculous.

Hee! Beautiful! I capped the ep last night, and when I was doing that scene I laughed out loud. John, you are SO silly. I love that we get a closeup of him trying not to laugh after Rodney is done.

Ahahaha!! Oh yeah, that close-up is priceless; he looks ready to explode :D

I tried capping that scene when they're leaving the control-room to come to the aid of Lorne's team; John briskly steps around the control-panel, past Ronon and Teyla, and then Rodney falls into step with him. I love those little details. Except the caps came out all blurry.

Yes, that was a lovely little moment, wasn't it?

There's so many good scenes with John and Rodney walking and talking to each other, like in "McKay and Mrs. Miller", but like you said, they're always all so blurry! It makes me crazy. I wonder if that is because they use digital film? This is the only show I've felt the urge to cap in such detail, so I'm not sure.

Well, at least I understand why Rodney's hands almost always come out blurry! *looks up at caps*
