While having coffee with a budy of mine the other day he mentioned about Universal is planning on a new Battlestar Galactica motion picture.
Naturally I checked it out online.
This quote is from the following link:
Feature film (2012)Creator Glen A. Larson is in talks with Universal Pictures to bring Battlestar Galactica to the big screen. The film will not be based on the Sci-Fi Channel series of the same title; it will be based on the original series which starred Richard Hatch, Dirk Benedict and Lorne Greene.[26][27][28][29]
Bryan Singer is to direct the feature film version of Battlestar Galactica.[30][31]
Then there's this quote from the following site regarding a B5 motion picture:
During the "Spotlight on J. Michael Straczynski" panel at the 2010 New York Comic Con, Straczynski revealed ôI said to Warner Bros. a while back, 'When youÆre ready to do something real with 'Babylon 5,' either a big-budget film or a TV show, if you want to do one of those two things, call me, otherwise donÆt bother me.' About a month ago the phone rang. I donÆt know where this is gonna go yet, but when they call you, thereÆs something going on. I canÆt tell you what it is yet and it may not go anywhere, but there is movement in the tall grass.ö[115]
Unless I'm missing something, it appears that only Universal Studios has a vision and is interested in producing a Scifi motion picture. Whereas Warner Bros, has been playing these ongoing games with JMS for how many years now?
