At WonderCon over the past weekend the Blood and Chrome trailer was released. Today it made its way to YouTube.
[ VIDEO REMOVED ]

UPDATE BY CYLON-KNIGHT:
Following Battlestar Wiki's and Galacticabbs.com's lead - to keep BYC.net in NBC/Universal's good graces - the "illegally released trailer" posting has been removed from By Your Command.net's forum. It may have been a WonderCon exclusive, not meant to leak to the web. I don't know... I just want us evil Cylons to better safe than sorry. ;)

Below is what Battlestar Wiki's admin wrote:
"At the request of NBC Universal, we are in the process of remove all links to the Blood & Chrome trailer that was illegally released on the Internet. Any attempts to repost the trailer will result in the deletion of the post and (potentially) banning of said persons who've done it. Thank you for your attention and understanding. - Joe B. (Battlestar Wiki Actual)"

This site can't afford to get into a pissing contest with NBC/Universal.

Cool! Looks good except for the mannequin getting in the ship.
The robots seem realistic. The dog fights are spectacular!

Looks NICE. Love the classic type Raiders and Basestar. Not too sure about the Centurions themselves yet. They seem to be a new type - between Caprica and nuBSG's Centurions.... have to check it out! Plenty of ACTION that's for sure.

I updated the first post... for now it seems the trailer is not meant for public release.
It COULD BE - who really knows this stuff - but better safe than sorry I think!
No one wants a studio trying to sue them / this site! :shock:

If the entire "illegal leak" is bunk, we'll repost the video.
Otherwise it is still on YouTube if you want to search for / view it (<HINT). Let their lawyers deal with it. ;)

The video is now down, but I have to say this was one of the longest threats of being removed that I have heard of. The rumors were running amuck 12 hours ago when I posted the video link. I believe Universal sent out the threat before filing with YouTube to remove it. I have seen videos come down with in 20 minutes after a complaint was filed. I tried to download the video, but darn this new Apple just doesn't comply with PC commands. One more reason I miss my PC. Blah...So the video will be released again in a official Universal fashion. Till then lets just say it was a awesome video teaser. A lot of action.

There must be a temporary memory bank. I can still watch it because it was the last one I viewed on my phone from my YouTube history.
Weird but I'm not complaining.

Well...

Looks like it's official. B&C will not be a TV series, but may yet still be a web/digital series. Although I don't know how costs would be less being online than for TV. And, I can't see how a web-only showing in the future would pull as much advertising revenue as full-blown TV. I'm thinking this project is DOA, but we will get to see the Pilot "at a future date". Still no word on when that will be.

Also, apparently the trailer was not meant for official wide-spread release, which is why it was taken down. This would explain the multiple uses of the same footage and the (IMHO) abysmal cover of Immigrant Song. Those things aside, I really like what I've seen so far and am discouraged that a new series will likely never see the light of day.
