MOORE'S TREKKIE STAR: GALACTICA" HAS NOT BEEN CANCELLED YET.....

"VAN HELSING" FAILS AT BOX OFFICE...."THE HULK" FAILS AT BOX OFFICE...."CAT IN THE HAT" FAILS AT BOX OFFICE...."JOSEY & THE PUSSYCATS" FAILS AT BOX OFFICE...."FLINTSONES" FAILS AT BOX OFFICE....."VIVA: ROCK VEGAS" FAILS AT BOX OFFICE...."ROCKY & BULLWINKLE" FAILS AT BOX OFFICE...."HOWARD THE DUCK" FAILS AT BOX OFFICE....."PITCH BLACK" FAILS AT BOX OFFICE....."CHRONICLES OF RIDDICK" FAILS AT BOX OFFICE....."VIRUS" FAILS AT BOX OFFICE.....

WHEN UNIVERSAL STUDIOS CANCELLED ALL OF THE SCIENCE FICTION PROGRAMS ON "SCI-FI CHANNEL" AND REPLACED THEM WITH NON-SCIENCE FICTION PROGRAMMING, THEY NEGLECTED TO CHANGE THE NAME OF THE NETWORK TO SOMETHING MORE FITTING. "THE HORROR CHANNEL", "THE USA NETWORK FILM VAULT CHANNEL", "THE INFOMERCIAL NETWORK", "THE HORROR/ACTION CHANNEL", OR "THE COMMERCIAL BROADCAST NETWORK" WOULD HAVE BEEN MORE APPROPRIATE TITLES.

UNIVERSAL STUDIOS TRACK RECORD WITH FANTASY MOVIES ISN'T MUCH BETTER. UNIVERSAL STUDIOS USUALLY RUNS INTO PROBLEMS WHEN THEY TRY TO MAKE LIVE ACTION MOVIES BASED ON COMIC BOOK CHARACTERS. THE "HULK" BORED AUDIENCES TO DEATH BARELY 10 MINUTES INTO THE MOVIE.....TURNING "VAN HELSING" INTO A SUPERNATURAL "RAMBO" WAS TOO RIDICULOUS FOR WORDS....."CAT IN THE HAT" PROVED THAT 5 YEAR OLD KIDS WEREN'T READY FOR "SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE" HUMOR......"JOSEY AND THE PUSSYCATS" WAS NOTHING MORE THAN A "CHARLIE'S ANGELS" RETREAD BASED ON A 1970 CARTOON THAT NO ONE REMEMBERED......THE "FLINTSTONES" MOVIES PROVED THAT REBUILDING "BEDROCK" ON A STUDIO BACKLOT WASN'T ENOUGH TO DRAW IN THE FANS OF THE CARTOON.....SOME PROPERTIES SHOULD BE LEFT IN CARTOON FORM, WHICH "ROCKY & BULLWINKLE" PROVED......"HOWARD THE DUCK" WAS GEORGE LUCAS'S FIRST CAREER FLOP. HOW FITTING THAT LUCAS CHOSE UNIVERSAL STUDIOS FOR THAT MOMENTOUS OCCASION......"PITCH BLACK" WAS "PITCH DULL"....."CHRONICLES OF RIDDICK" DISAPPEARED FROM THEATERS FASTER THAN "FINAL FANTASY-THE SPIRITS WITHIN"......AND "VIRUS" PROVED THAT WHEN UNIVERSAL STUDIOS MADE A MOVIE FOR THE SUMMER OF 1999, NO ONE CAME AND WENT TO THE BEACH INSTEAD......

THE MANAGEMENT OF "UNIVERSAL STUDIOS/SCI-FI CHANNEL" IS AN OPENLY HOSTILE REGIME TOWARDS THE VIEWING PUBLIC, SCIENCE FICTION PROGRAMMING, AND THE "BATTLESTAR GALACTICA" COPYRIGHT. THE ENDLESS GRAVEYARD OF CANCELLED TELEVISION SHOWS ON "SCI-FI CHANNEL" AS WELL AS UNIVERSAL STUDIOS ENDLESS BOX OFFICE FAILURES INDICATES THAT THIS IS A CORPORATION THAT DELIBERATELY LOST ITS WAY IN MAKING RATIONAL BUSINESS DECISIONS. ONE CAN ALWAYS HOPE FOR MIRACLES, AND THE PERMANENT FINANCIAL DOWNFALL OF "UNIVERSAL STUDIOS/SCI-FI CHANNEL" IS A DREAM SHARED BY MANY.

It's Going To Be A LONG Summer, Isn't It Sci-Fi Channel?
« on: March 25, 2005, 08:15:20 AM »
Well, Sci-Fi Channel. The END is near, isn't it? I must say, it has been EXTREMELY ENTERTAINING watching you trying to keep Ron Moore's CRAP on the air. Never before in the history of television has a USELESS TELEVISION NETWORK thrown their entire weight (all 2 grams) behind a FAILED TELEVISION SERIES that FAILS again and again. It FAILED in the ratings, and FAILED CREATIVELY in the eyes of the "Galactica" fanbase. Have you learned your lesson yet, Sci-Fi Channel? That putting a HUNK OF CRAP on the air that only appeals to the tastes of Universal/Sci-Fi Channel executives (WHAT THE HELL DO THEY KNOW ABOUT GOOD DRAMA OR GOOD SCIENCE FICTION)?? is a ONE WAY TICKET TO DOOM!!

You've been caught with your pants down, Sci-Fi Channel. Somewhere along the way, your 20 episode order for a second season was SLASHED to a 10 episode order, to what it is now.... "Six episodes ordered, with no guarantee that all six will go into production." IT'S GOING TO BE A LONG,....LONG,....LONG SUMMER FOR YOU, ISN'T IT SCI-FI CHANNEL? I'm going to make an educated guess, and say that you are now facing the prospects of having to come up with REPLACEMENT PROGRAMMING for Ronald D. Moore's series, WHICH YOU ARE ABOUT TO SHIT-CAN. What's it going to be, Sci-Fi Channel? What's going to TAKE THE PLACE of Ronald D. Moore's series this summer? "Scare Tactics" RERUNS? Reruns of "MANSQUITO" and "FRANKENFISH?"

Don't feel badly, Sci-Fi Channel. Consider the CANCELLATION of Ronald D. Moore's series a MERCY KILLING on behalf of television viewers everywhere. The sooner we begin REDUCING the options for all of the former "Star Trek" staff writers to exist in television, THE BETTER!!!  Grin Grin Grin Grin

It isn't enough that the cancellation of "Enterprise" will bring to the television industry, A MUCH NEEDED REST FROM "STAR TREK" for the next few years. ALL "STAR TREK" CLONE PRODUCTIONS-(such as Ronald D. Moore's series called "Battlestar Galactica") MUST BE CANCELLED AS WELL.

Let me tell you something, Sci-Fi Channel. Former "Star Trek" staff writers are CREATURES OF HABIT. They NEVER venture beyond "Star Trek" formulas and cliches when they write. If these writers are given any sort of opportunity (such as the opportunity you gave to Ronald D. Moore), they will ENDLESSLY REGURGITATE all of the old "Star Trek" cliches and formulas UNTIL THEY ARE TOLD TO STOP!!!


                                               Ronald D. Moore NEEDS TO BE TOLD....TO STOP!!!!


Make this a package deal, Sci-Fi Channel!! CANCEL Ronald D. Moore's series so IT CAN JOIN "Enterprise" in the STAR TREK GRAVEYARD!!! This is a MERCY KILLING WAITING TO HAPPEN!!!!  Grin Kiss
