and i ckeep on ranting about remakes and even made up a term to spread around the internet called YARM (yet another remake/reboot).
scifi should really not be about YARM ever it should always be about the future.that is to say that intelligent folks do not ever need to sit thru remakes...leave those for the mindless mainstream.we scifi'ers should be demanding new fresh movies either based on books never movied B4 or brand new things.That is what i want to see.Do you really think i am going to sit thru a new DUNE or Videodrome or any of these lame YARM krap.
Every movie that a studio makes that is YARM means i will refuse to purchase 3 dvd's from them.That is my personal boycott.

Fuck Trek. Fuck BSG. They've had their moments. Time to move on.

I'm all for more space-based adventures and more "far out" scifi in general. We are too conservative except for existing franchise's in many ways.
You should never retro-fit a shows plot to match an existing franchise. But at the same time, if you got a new story to tell in an existing univserse, I'm happy for that too.
Both Star Trek and Star Wars have hhhhuuuugggeee universe's after all.
Other things Id like to see;
Red Alert DVD Movies! - Chessy as possible. Big over the top time-traveling war scnaros with massive robots and tanks etc.
More Sky Captain Films - Come on! This should have happened already :( The alternative universe was great.
Dennoou Coil - Live action tv series. The Anime was perfect, but unfortuntely to reach the audience the story deserves it needs a new medium. A near-future thats original and realistic, yet at the same time where an anti-virus program can chase you down the street!
This show would rock.
Also, technicaly fantasy, but Id like to see a tv-series based around Discworlds city-watch.
The tv-movies of discworld have been a bit hit-and-miss, but I think the Watch books lay a good story base's for an ongoing show.
Cops in a Fantasy City.
Could be great, and (if budget allows) get pretty far-out there too.

Oh noes! A new series!
Hollywood execs heads would explode from such a blasphemous thought.
Hollywood Execubot Rationale: Lensmen sounds too much like Watchman and we can't let the audience associate those two together.

Didn't know that about Caprica, maybe I can still enjoy the show as I never watched BSG much.
