Battlestar Galactica Documentary

Battlestar Galactica Documentary

I found this Documentary pretty interesting, despite its poor audio.

Glen A. Larson, the creator, sort of admits he barrowed the concept from Star Wars. I like the former name Adam’s Ark.

Some of this stuff I wasn’t aware of.

~I didn’t Lucas, at an early point, reviewed the work. His ILM and John Dykstra team was supposed to work on it. Lucas didn’t want laser beams coming out of the guns. WTF?

~Lorne Greene was added to give the show critical creed.

~Larson wanted Dirk Benedict, the Network didn’t. Larson forced his hand and got Benedict, but there was a lot of bad blood between the Network and Larson.

~Lucas let them use his teams, but then turned his back on the production and sued the Studio. I guess he felt threatened by the show.

~Richard Hatch and Dirk Benedict didn’t get along.

~This Doc was made before the new show was made. The whole Bryan Singer/Ron Moore thing wasn’t even considered yet. But an IMAX movie was.

~Richard Hatch is an asshole and has an ego. While he spent time bitching to the writers, Benedict spent most his time just chilling and really didn’t care.
