Battlestar Galactica Feature Film Confirmed

Dave Knott writes "Entertainment Weekly reports that Universal Pictures has confirmed rumours of a Battlestar Galactica feature film. Directed by Bryan Singer, and co-produced by original series creator Glen Larson, the new movie will not be related to the recently concluded SyFy Network series. Rather, it will be a 'complete re-imagining of the sci-fi lore that was invented by Larson back in the '70s.'"

    DS9 only got good when they hired 1/2 the creative people off of B5

    Which creative people would that be? There were 110 B5 episodes. Of those 92 were written by JMS. All 44 episodes of seasons 3 and 4 were scripted by him.

    because fox said (You guessed it) B5 is cancelled.

    That would be a peculiar thing for Fox to say, as B5 was produced by Warner Brothers and aired in syndication.

    Amazingly they recanted

    not quite... what happened is that TNT agreed to pick up the show.

    which is why the last season of B5 was crap they had lost 1/2 their talent and squeezed the last 2 years of story arc into season 4 to finish the series.

    The only person I recall leaving was Claudia Christian who played Cmdr Ivanova.

    Damn you FOX!!

    Fox had nothing to do with anything.

    Good post. Next time try some facts.
