Just When You Thought It Was Over

Oh, god, please don't let it be more self-important, self-indulgent crap from the latest teevee series. But I fear it shall be more of the same old, emoting, whining, and machines that look just like people! But since all of us science fiction fans are not very intelligent, we will easily duped, yet again, by a concept that was old back with the first edition of Invasion of the Body Snatchers. Maybe this movie will wreck the Galactica universe as thoroughly as the last Star Trek movie destroyed all the reasons for being a Star Trek fan.

'Battlestar Galactica' headed for big screen at warp speed under 'X-Men' director Bryan Singer: "...'I think Hollywood previously underestimated the intelligence of the science fiction audience...'"

Duh. You think? When was the last time an A.E. vanVoigt novel was made into a movie? How about Ringworld? Wait, there must be a comic book somewhere that has not been converted into a movie.

(See what a lack of health care can do? Turn you into a ranting lunatic!)
