rogueslayer452Looks like the new BSG reboot film will be happening after all.
This will not end well.
Okay, I know this is more of a reboot of the original BSG than the re-imagined series (as that, too, was a reboot of the original story itself), and I'm sure that there are handfuls of people who were fans of the original series who are excited for this to be happening. I know Richard Hatch has expressed that any kind of extension of the BSG universe, if done well, is good by him. But with the success of the re-imagined BSG, complete with how it made a fundamental impact on the science fiction genre and it celebrated the deep, strong messages that other shows can't even compare to, I don't know. I just have mixed feelings since I know I shouldn't be knocking something that is rebooting of the original series that I have no interest in, however I still feel like it's too soon to be introducing a reboot of anything when there's already been a well-done reboot in the first place. Never mind I'm sure this is going back to the Casino planets and weird aliens and a male!Starback with no female president (or strong female characters who are treated equally) and just, ugh. DNW.
