Wordiezett So much average

Dotsthavesp I wanted to but couldn't!

Forumrxes Yo, there's no way for me to review this film without saying, take your *insert ethnicity + "ass" here* to see this film,like now. You have to see it in order to know what you're really messing with.

Doomtomylo a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

George Taylor Galactica, if it had had say Isaac Asimov or Harlan Ellison on board, might have been a great show. It is after all about the Robotic Genocide of the Human Race. (Which really makes no sense since why would Robots find humans a threat? They should have remained bugs like in the original idea), anyhow it was busted down to a kiddie show. The only thing really different in this (the sfx are nice and the same) is Baltar's ending. I can't even watch this after Ronald Moore did a much superior version for the rapidly fading SyFy channel.

StuOz A wonderful start to BG and better than the series that follows. The Cylons, Lorne Green, Ray Milland, the disaster movie-feel in the first half of it, the grand Stu Phillips musical score...I could go on for hours!Stu Phillips would go on to do the score for Buck Rogers In The 25th Century (the movie) in 1979. And that score is even more outstanding than his BG score here!Star Wars (1977), Battlestar Galactica (1978), Buck Rogers In The 25th Century (1979)...three 1970s cinema released space movies that have a special place in my heart.

DianeDever This was one of my favorites as a child. I try and catch the show whenever it reairs on the Sci-Fi network. I enjoyed the 2003 mini-series but I feel that it was incomplete. It left a lot hanging. I wonder if the Sci-Fi channel plans to finish the show. If anyone knows then feel free to email me. Let me know when they are planning to air the rest of the show or if it is still in production. I checked a few online sites but I didn't have any luck with finding any real comment on the subject. Has anyone seen the DVD version in the stores yet? I found the VHS version a few years ago but you could only purchase two episodes at a time and considering the price I didn't think it was worth the cost. I want the entire TV series with the original cast members. I am not interested in the newer version with Barry Van Dyke as one of the major characters.

SDF9 When Battlestar Galactica came out I was too young to know which end of a blaster to hold ;) But I was lucky and in the late 80's the show was syndicated. And I was transported across the universe to the Egyptian/Greco Alien word of Cobalt. It's sun slowly fading away. I followed Starbuck, Apollo, Sheba and the Galactgang search across the star systems with a killer robot army at there backs, mysterious aliens to the right, Lucifer Morningstar to the left, and the Confederation (the warmongering and dangerously uncaring reflection of our future) between them and that 13th Colony, Earth. I consider myself lucky, and I've seen from some other posts here (comparing Galactica with Star Wars) that I was not alone. But I just wanted to follow say that my favorite part of Galactica was how they did follow the Warrior Philosopher world that Star Wars touched on with the Jedi Knights. Except this time our heroes only special powers were there compassion and intelligence. Adama, the military leader who's spiritually made him an tragic champion who's idealism and human identity helped motivate his country men (and women). Now granted that the many of the civilian leaders were corrupt and the military were not, but I saw that as Spartan-esk and wonderfully Arthurian. And lets not forget our noble Apollo, his hot-head buddy, Starbuck (the man with the lady troubles). And Baltar the Betrayer. You are in for a treat when watching Galactica. Now sadly I've caught the new 'Battlestar Galactica' and this, thankfully, is in no way that. Nor is it 'Galactica 1980' (lame) but hey at least that had Lorn Greene ;)
