There is rumor of yet another Battlestar Galactica reboot... after all the last
reboot has already been 10 years ago (where has the time gone?)

Has anyone else heard of this?

There is no other Battlestar Galactica reboot (yet), thank God!!
Moore-Ron's one was complete crap, and they only get worse with each
new version (just look at the continuous idiotic superhero reboots).

There was a rumour a while back of a movie version that was stupidly
going to be different to both existing versions. There was also a
rumour of some insane movie that would somehow fit with *both*
versions. Hopefully both of these silly ideas have been cancelled.

Well, originally Dirk Benedict was trying to get a movie funded that
was supposed to be a direct follow-up to the original series, right?

That could have been interesting with a decent budget and decent acting.

If you're able to watch Ron Moore's version without trying to compare
it to the original, and if you pretend that its a standalone show, its
not bad at all.

I'm not sure about a Dirk Benedict movie. Glen Larson was trying to
make a movie (rumoured to be a follow on or yet another version at
different stages). Richard Hatch tried for years to get a follow-on
series made.

There was also the follow-on series by Bryan Singer, but he had to pull
out and that's when Moore-Ron was brought in to ruin in. :-(

But since the morons gave it the same name, like all idiotic reboots,
it's obviously not a "standalone show". If they had had the brains to
give their very different version a different name, then you wouldn't
have to pretend since it would be a standalone show.

You're right, it was Richard Hatch. I believe he even got a trailer
or two produced.

No arguments there. :)

There is a 4min trailer for "Battlestar Galactica: The Second Coming"
on YouTube

or

and also on the "official" website
http://www.richardhatch.com/battlestar_galactica/bsgtsc.html

He did also make a trailer for another sci-fi show called "The Great
War of Magellan", which I have a copy of, but it isn't particularly
good.
