New series of “V” was rubbish – not Galactica! Also Caprica was very good until they rushed the ending to finish it. Cant wait for Blood and Chrome. When will Singer stop remaking old ideas and work on something his own?

Any news on this? I hope it all flops – just like the re-imagining of “V”… New series was rubbish. BSG ended. Bring it back from the dead when it becomes out dated.

I would love to see a remake or continuation of the classic show. I loved the show growing up and I still love the show as a middle aged fan. I didn’t care to much for the re-imagining by Sci Fi even though it was smart to bring on Richard Hatch to whom the franchise owes a lot for bringing interest back to the show. I think Singer has a chance to do what could not be done in the 70′s and why not bring Hatch in to do the part of Adama. I hope this comes to be reality for the continuation that was to be was such a disappointment to fans when it was canceled. I will always be partial to the original show and actors but would love to see a movie that goes along very close to the original story.

BSG on Sci Fi is already forgotten. Great start to the series but the last two seasons were weak with a horrible ending. Sci Fi should do another continued series with Adama waking up from a dream somewhere in season two and go from there.

I agree that it will be difficult to make a great movie in only 120 minutes. None of the new characters hold a candle to Greene, Hatch, and Dirk.

Jessie, I couldn’t agree with you more. I also loved the original series growing up, but having watched every episode of the new BSG series, I couldn’t think of anything worse or insulting to the new series by trying to remake another angle of this story based on the original, especially if they use different cast members. It would be a grave mistake.
Don’t get me wrong, as I said I loved the original series growing up, but to do a movie based on the original series now would be crazy since most people have got used to seeing the new series.
Also, why would you want to change the cast just for the movie? they were all fantastic in there own right.

P’S
Mr Singer, on the off chance, if your reading any of these comments,
please, please, please do the movie based on or around Ron Moore’s new series. I really believe this will work out so much better.

I love the new making of BSG and respect the original, but I don’t know if I can take a third re-telling of the story. In my head is Olmos, Bamber, Sackhoff, Park, Penikett, etc.

Are new characters going to be created? Are the characters going to be recast? Are they going to make it for the younger generation like they did with “Star Trek?” (I’m not saying that was bad; I really liked it, it was just really aimed at my generation (I’m 21) or younger.)

Either stick with Moore’s vision and actors or wait ten years and start a fresh. Don’t bombard people who haven’t seen either series with a third vision. Too confusing… maybe even for me.

Andy what direction would you take ?

BSG fans of the past show or the reboot have all gone through the attack on Caprica and the subsequent fleeing from Cylon tyranny.

Are we going to see that again, puke! Its too soon.

I hope that this is more like the original series than the newer series. I know I am the minority on that, but the new series did absolutely NOTHING for me. I really REALLY wanted to like it, but after watching a few episodes I couldn’t make myself enjoy it. I would prefer a more light-hearted take on it similar to the TV show (w/o the cheesiness though).

Same reason they made a Star Trek movie,

They’ll mainstream it to make half a billion dollars and kickstart a new franchise if they market it right and get a cool likable cast.

@790

Sometimes I think the same thing,but other times I think that writers and producers are just riding the wave.

For instance,Deep Impact and Armageddon came out around the same time,Dante’s Peak and Volcano as well,The Illusionist and The Prestige too.While they aren’t the exact same movies,obviously,they have similar situations and or running themes,and they were released very close to each other.

loved the original, skeptical of the new series until i saw the pilot”holy crap it’s good” loved it even more. Maybe too loyal to the new series to accept a movie re-imagining again. I’ll have to wait and see.

@Longshanks, I get what you mean but I think along with making money off BSG, behind the scenes theres a larger agenda playing out…

With so many alien invasion tv shows and upcoming films, one has to step back and look at the pattern of conditioning that’s taking place in the media,,, a coincidence we shall see,,,,????
Don’t forget that the same people who make movies control the news,,, 790

What’s the point of this?, another reimaging of the attack on Caprica?
The series was the high point let it rest for another 2000 years.

Seems to be the easiest thing to do these days,take an already established story,change a few things in the rewrite,then release is in theaters.Lame.and to answer your question(albeit,rhetorical I’m sure),to make gobs of money and that’s about it.

The thing about it is that from the time that the original BSG came out and the new on,it was right on time,but this is just ridiculous.

I’ve done that before and will probably do that again too!
