All new Battlestar coming soon

[MEZZANINE]

there is a battlestar G movie being made too but by different people dont no ow thats going to work really :s

http://www.scifimoviepage.com/upcoming/ ... emake.html

after reading this im fine with it i liked the original and I admit the remake was better acting and storylines until season 4 of the new one kinda got repetitive n poor writing

the only thing is to fans of he new not the old this will confuse them surely as starbuck will be a man again and people will go what and so on lol and im going to lol if i hear a sci fi noob says starbuck was a woman 1st

Im genuinely shocked

As as child ( about 5-8 yo in the early 80s ) I loved the original series, it seemed epic for the time when it had things like Blakes 7, Buck Rogers & Original Dr Who as competition. But it aged badly, all to nice, the goodies were all good and never got killed, the baddies were so dumb it was surprising they still existed. The characters cheesier than a bag of quavers and the acting so poor it hurt the eyes.

The remake came and it was truly epic, probably the best remake of any TV show ever taking all the good bits from the original while fixing all the flaws & faults.

Why go back to the old formula when the new one is Soooooooooooo much better ???

Only thing I can think of it to make it suitable for the young children again, which while great for the kids is not so good for me.

it was a sign of hte 80s the good guys never got hurt etc for instance look at the A TEAM noone gothurt or killed with all those cars turning over etc

this movie while im a fan of both shows I wont watch. why? not because Im sure I would love it but think of it. its starting from the start again Ive seen it twice before in the original and the sci fi network one. We know what happens for say the first half of the movie and the end either will be search for earth *its unlikely to find it in one movie* and Im sure other people will feel the same why go to see something you know whats going to happen. If it happens or set after the destruction of colonies then fine Ill watch it

but it will flop because its still fresh in memories of people lol like spiderman should flop but might have enough die hard fans to save it (yes theres a new one coming out next year which is a remake SIGH the originals sucked lol)

I agree 100%

Also if this new Battlestar prequel TV series coming out in the 'remake' format it would be very confusing, and even if the movie was is in the 'remake' format is would still be like the Stargate / Serenity type of movie where it feels like an extended or double episode with too much crammed in to too little time ( episode length being about 45mins and cinema cuts of most movies being roughly 90mins ).

But still I dont think I could resist, would probably watch it and be disappointed

i dont no if id be disapointed with the effects or acting it depends who is in it. Bryan singer is directing he is one of my favorite directors but the only disapointment would be I now whats going to happen as i said if its remake not reimagining both started the same

lol the series is not even out yet and alredy thinking of 'downloading it' maxst?

Lets all make a vow.. The reason why Caprica got cancelled is because it didnt have enough viewers.. Lets give blood and chrome a high viewship by actually watching the show on sci fi??

How about we all make a vow to stop being dumb and ignorant? Maybe if I had cable tv I'd watch it. Since I don't... I download. Know the facts before making blind dumbass comments.

Caprica had no viewers because it sucked. It was slower and worse than SGU. It had no following because it provided no action. Just like SGU, it carried a brand name... Battlestar Galactica. It had a season to live up to the expectations of the brand name, and it didn't.

This is a new day and age for tv series. People watch tv on their schedule. Not the network's schedule. If they can't get with the times and provide shows on their websites to get a better following, then that's their own issue. I'd gladly stream a show from their website with commercials if they offered that option... but they don't, so I watch it however I can.

Cable tv is about as worthless as your username, because your username is one thing you lack... knowledge. I hope more people are like me and stream free tv... just so all your favorite shows get canceled. I'd much rather use my money to increase my bandwidth, than fork up money to pay to watch tv.

I doupt the viewership numbers are based on survey.. I always though they were found using deal where the tv broadcasters share info with the channels/producers

Google it, not so much survey's anymore as technology has moved on, but sample groups of households are selected and given free TV access in return for having monitoring devise attached to their TVs that log what they watch.

I've actually been surveyed two different times. Once for radio and once for TV. The radio one was back in 2000, the Nielsen TV ratings one was like last year.

P.S. I do agree that it's BS.
