don't forget that the first galactica movie was released in sensesurrond, where the theatre shook. i saw it at the pre-rstoration emerson in boston, whacked out on reefer and beer. well, it was the 70's.

The movie/pilot was a worldwide release except for the US (blocked by Lucas). I had heard about the others but never saw them here.
Eek! Having those on TV was bad enough :)

Didn't that add a whole other dimension to the sensurround?

whole 'nother universe. saw midway, same place, same way.
I could never get int ST, in any of it's many guises. If they all went away and we got some decent TV programming, I might have to find the time to actually watch the idiot box.... Remember, cute girls don't make for rivetting viewing; there's this little thing called PLOT that is quite important!
Gotta get me one of those! LOL

You can, however, peek into the engines in
There were several scenes shot for the pilot that didn't show in the theatrical version: and a big change: in the theater version-Baltar is executed by the Cylons. The pilot has him spared to hunt the Colonial Fleet on the reasoning: set a human to catch a human.

:>The two Ewok telemovies from the 80s as well...
: Hmmm... Telemovies? I thought they were movies-movies...
Originally telemovies in the US - got big screen releases on many (most?) other parts of the planet though...

Rob, you're hopelessly out of tune with modern programmers. Cute girls wearing as little as they can get away with plus explosions are what TV viewers want to see, according to them. That said, I'm almost as hopelessly out.

You poor unfortunate fellow. That turkey was on AMC last night. That channel sure has gone to hell.

Operation American Freedom-Where is our regime change?
I like Enterprise - it's one of only a handfull worth watching these days. Everything is centred around lifestyle programs and fuggen makovers....

stop insulting turkeys. as franklin said, they are nobles birds.
Yes, I remember thinking "Caravan of Courage" was the next SW movie, and then I had to try to slip unnoticed out of the cinema before the lights went on...

I've actually become disgusted with Enterprise. There's NO character development. The show should be renamed "The life and body of T'Pol". The show completely centers around her and her body. Every episode, we see her in less and less clothing.
We have yet to really get inside the head of Mayweather. We haven't learned how Hoshi has overcome her fear of space travel. We don't know what the dog eats. It's all about T'pol. Pretty sick. I've pretty much written off Enterprise and I've been watching Star Trek since the beginning.

You've come up with a pretty fair evaluation, IMHO.

Thank you. I'm by no means a prude and I certainly didn't want to come off sounding that way. I am however a Christian, fairly new albeit and maybe a little overly righteous to start off with. But Enterprise has taken broadcast sci-fi (Star Trek in particular) to a new level that just doesn't work for me.
I'm not saying it's bad, but it no longer appeals to my tastes or my morals. It's unfortunate because I love the story, and the franchise and my office is decorated with star trek models, calendars, etc. Guess I'll have to find a new outlet for my nerdisms! :)

Never watched Lexx on Sci-Fi channel did you? Now that show was sex in space. Only watched one or two episodes myself until it got too bad to watch.
That would certainly tend to reduce one's sexual appitite; I think. :~)

Yep! I remember the green girl and the Orion slave. I guess the imagery scales with the times.
