But you know he survived, he was later found up-river, adopted and taken into care. He became a quiet young man, studious and attentive in class, finding his aptitude in computer science. He later became a developer in the .com world of business, untill the net bubble crashed. His loss and frustration manifestied itself into his original hate, identified by his personal shrink. He adapted, he evolved, he became green. He was the....
....Fullen. Andrew by birth.
Beware, you won't like him when he's angry. Even the government has yielded to his potential destruction, they even gave him his own padded cell, to contain his anger. Plus his own unique URL name, 'The Langutron'

It's easy to debate what could have been, than to defend what you've got. The swing could have swung the other way here. What you can not deny, is the amount of people who actualy like what they are getting!!!

Very funny that Tom DeSanto managed to update the story for both age groups. He also managed to keep the characters intact. The only thing that went wrong was they pulled the production away from him. I love to strongly debate, probably to the extent of flaming, but I really do not wish to here. It's a sensitive subject to a lot of people. You talk of DeSanto doing the deed in terms of script, but I've seen nothing of it. If it does exist, could you URL point it to me. I've only heard of scratch synopsis. It's one thing to talk of reality, it's another to talk of possability. Why are you so sure DeSanto would have created more of an original continuation? I want to reiterate, I don't want to start a flame war here. I just want to understand, why you are so sure you would have got what you wanted through DeSanto??

Hand of God was the best episode because the effects team went overboard. And that was well over TWENTY_FIVE years ago. I really can understand peoples disapointment after 9/11, but really, Larson held onto his interlectual rights through the court case, what the hell do you expect through a re-imagining, where the writers hands are in cuffs. It's all just bollocks really. What's not, is a fine piece of work, which should be merrited for it's qualities. Besides, if all the actors in the original had come to play in the 'Continuation' surely, a new audience, would have to deal with any new direction the show would have to take, through the introduction of new blood. Which in my mind, is the same as complaining about any of the characters in TNS. You all say, you'd stick to the same family ethos, yet make the show more appealling to a modern audience...BUT...HOW? No-one, has given any clear direction on that, just say so 'that they would', which comes down to trust, and talk of walking vipers. Sorry, BSG is now TNS, like it or complain. There's no-way a viewing public will accept two different timelines. One's in production, of which you can advice criticism, the other is a possible cartoon. It's that stark now....

Not sure if this has been posted elsewhere, but Aaron Douglas and Jamie Bamber will both be attending the Wolf SG9 Convention on 18th & 19th February (Jamie on he 19th only) - to be held at the London Heathrow Thistle Hotel More info here: www.wolfevents.com/php/modules.php?op=modload&name=News&file=article&sid=61&mode=thread&order=0&thold=0Weekend tickets are pretty expensive at £75 or 80 each but they are also doing a limited number of sunday only tickets for £42.50 Hope this helps all those Aaron Douglas fans out there (wish I could afford to go ) That's a rip off. I live 5 miles away, but I'd rather go to Milton Keanes than pay those prices. Shit, looks like you guys are going to have to get pished, hehehe :twisted:

Well done Xenu, looking good. Thought I'd post a hello. I'm looking forward to spending some time here. But do I have to like Rush?
