Last Supper and the Truth  
Hey Everyone....

It's Aaron. Yes, it really is. We are still on break due to the strike and I just had my day on Day the Earth Stood Still pushed because of snow on set so I am at home checking this Last Supper scream session some of you are having.

Yes I do know Michelle, she is a very good friend of mine and does a wonderful job on my site. I know there will be many who say that is not the real Aaron and to those people I say, "Bite me!!!!" kidding.

If you have ever met me at a con or anywhere else ask me a question that only I would know and I will show you that it is really me. Or don't and believe that this is some weirdo passing on bogus info. Whatever floats your boat.

I will also be at Allcon in Dallas this year as well as the BSG cruise so you can ask me there.
I know!!!
Creation con are jackasses.... there... believe me now?

The Last Supper.
1. We were all there all weekend. No one was photoshopped. Actors HATE gallery shoots.
No one was particularly pleased with having to do it but we all went. I had a con in New England that I had to cancel to go to this FRAKKING thing so I was particularly unimpressed.
2. Ron was not at the shoot.
3. There was the photographer and a bunch of Scifi people who were standing behind a curtain orchestrating this thing. They would gather and whisper to each other and then one person would give us direction. They seemed to be making it up as they went along.... which is not new for scifi marketing.
4. This was not the only thing shot that day. We had singles and group shots and those weird spinning light promo things you see on scifi.com and all the other BS they made us do.
5. Is there a hidden meaning in the last supper? Nope. I don't think so and neither do any of the cast.
6. They told us where to stand and what they wanted but we did pretty much what we wanted to do. It was just like making the show. We, each actor, know our own characters better than anyone and we chose to stand, sit, lie however we chose.

If it comes out that there is hidden meaning I will come back and admit I am wrong. But I seriously don't think it is anything more than something to fuck with you all.

I have been speaking to Michelle about this and if she says something comes from me you can take it to the bank that it did. If she says it didn't, it didn't. I don't tell her everything. We are not allowed to divulge very much.

Why do I think there is no hidden meaning in this picture?
We have shot 13 eps and in no way has anything any fan has come up with based on looking at the picture appeared in any script.

Have fun with the pic but remember..... this is Ron. Truly a great writer, great man, great friend..... but he will toy with you whenever he gets the chance.....

Hey, thanks for updating, Aaron, I think you're the first actor I've ever seen on LJ, which is a shame, because this is the place to be!

Looking forward to Season 4. You know, knuckle biting, teeth gnashing, the whole bit.

Hi Aaron,

Welcome to LJ, and thanks for stopping by with the clarification. (And don't mind us fans, we get a little wonky and over analytical during the long hiatuses.)

Can't wait for April. Long live the CHIEF!

If you have ever met me at a con or anywhere else ask me a question that only I would know and I will show you that it is really me.

I sold you a t-shirt at the 2006 San Diego Comicon. What was printed on it?

(Hee! I actually do believe it's really you -- I'm just trying to see if you remember me. I had such an awesome time talking to you that time!)

Are you looking to be at Dragoncon this year?

Aaron, wow! Thanks for stopping by LJ! (I use this icon when my friends and I are dissecting scenes involving you. That's it, man. I swear. ;-)

I first heard of you before I made the jump to BSG, when you e-mailed Ricky Gervais about his podcasts and he and Stephen discussed that. It's too bad they weren't watching at the time; maybe, like me, they have since seen the error of their ways. Because, having gone back to the miniseries and gotten caught up in about 2.5 months, I know now that this is one of the best-written, best-acted shows on TV, and the Peabody should be only the tip of the awards iceberg.

Loved your cameo on "Reaper," too.

Aaron! How awesome of you to post here. The way the cast and crew mingle with the fans always blows me away.

I didn't put too much effort into analyzing the photo but it was fun to see what other people thought up. I'm a little disappointed that it's all crazy talk. :(

So hey, are you as worried as the rest of us are that BSG may not finish the second half of the season because of the strike? That would suck donkey balls!

Anyway, you gotta come to Toronto for a con some time. I only went to my first one this past summer, but you're definitely someone I would shell out a bunch of cash to talk to in person. =) Everyone's always said how cool you are.

Thanks again for stopping by. :)

Now that Aaron has his LJ username and password, I've turned off the ability to make anonymous posts. That's so you know that the anonymous comments that have already been made on here are from Aaron. And now there can't be any new anonymous comments made (just in case someone tries to make an anonymous post pretending to be Aaron). Not that I think anyone would do that. But just to be safe, I turned it off.

Hey Aaron, thanks for posting. I find it funny to read some of the comments about the pic, but knowing RDM even if it was orchestrated by him (which I believe that it wasn't) it wouldn't tell us a whole lot anyway. I blame the long hiatus for the craziness that is going on - people jump in any small morsel and make it bigger then it is.

PS - thanks for making D*C 2007 one of the best experiences - lets just say that I went because of one actor (and a bunch of girls I met because of that actor - think a certain cake) and came home a fan of yours and Mark's too.

I am still holding out hope the three of you are back a D*C this year. Hope the strike ends soon, so you can get back to work - I want to see how BSG ends darn it.

this is very cool that you are posting on LJ...I was really excited when that whole "mirroring the last supper" stuff came up because,,,speculation is fun, i guess..but I guess we'll have to just go by what Ron says in the article and wait until March.

sorry that the photoshoot was a hassle..but this really is a beautiful pic.

Btw, loved you in Reaper and Bionic Woman. Its good to see a friendly face following me to my new favorite tv shows, hehe.

Hi Aaron, thanks so much for coming and talking to us! It's really interesting to hear your take on the photo.

I met you briefly in Wellington, New Zealand last April. I was the one in the wheelchair, with the Batman t-shirt. I just want to thank you for coming all the way down here! It was a real treat, we don't have as many fans down here as in bigger countries, obviously, but we're very devoted. Love the show, DYING for season four to start up!

Hey Aaron, nice to see you on LJ! I'm the chick with a cane who you and your friend very kindly let cut in when you were at the front of the Air Canada line in San Diego after Comic-Con. My torn foot ligaments and I were very, very grateful.

I really hope you get to film the rest of the last season of BSG, and good luck with everything.

Thanks so much for posting this, Aaron. I had a feeling RDM made it all up, but all the crazy mirroring mythology people had come up with was entertaining me endlessly on a slow day at work. Good to know officially it's nothing too cerebral.

And come to New York sometime soon! I'd love to see you at a Con 'round here.

Hey Aaron,

In appreciation for your contribution to the show and also for how amazing you are with the fans, I made you a little present. It's a LiveJournal icon. As I'm sure you've noticed, we all have one, it's kind of a commodity around here, mini pieces of artwork we make and share. Anyway, use it if you like, or not, whatever. If you want to know how to get it uploaded so you can use it, the FAQ on how to do that is here. If you have any questions, let me know, or I'm sure meshel can help you. LJ takes a little getting used to. But we're very glad you're here!

Here's the icon, you can just save it off my server:



(I would have put your real name on it but I wasn't sure you wanted that, and also we do tend to use our LJ names more around here anyway.)

Aaron! Great to hear from you (if it really is you XD,.. kidding).

Well we could've expected the pic to be meaningless, but you have to admit you with the knife made a creepy coincidence with LdV's Last Supper.
Anyway, I really hope you get much screentime in S4, you arranged the Chief to be such an intense character I can't wait to see how you handle him next. I can't be at the cons (me being in Europe and all),but I 'm looking forward to hearing from you again(hopefully with some juicy spoilers :P), but seriously take care.
