Battlestar Galactica Quote of 2003:

"Who is to say the killing of the baby is an act of evil? That's our human prejudice. A natural reaction." -- David Eick, Battlestar Galactica 2003 mini-series producer, when asked about the baby killing scene where the skull of a Colonial infant is crushed by a Cylon robot. SciFi.com Chat on December 4, 2003 at 9 PM.

7. Special Announcement: Special Letter Writing Campaign

Special Letter Writing Campaign

January 2, 2004

A two-pronged letter writing campaign has been confirmed for 28 October 2003 and 2 January 2004, aimed at expressing the overwhelming, unified support of the fandom for a feature film continuation of Battlestar Galactica helmed by producer Tom DeSanto and series creator Glen A. Larson. Your help is needed, not only in writing your own letters, but also in spreading the word about the campaign as far and wide as possible.

The first round of letters, aimed at DeSanto and Larson, should be mailed on 28 October 2003, in the immediate wake of Galacticon and the release of the DVD set. These letters (pen-and-paper letters, please; email should only be used to supplement a pen-and-paper letter) should contain positive messages of support on behalf of the fandom for a continuation helmed by these two immensely talented men, who have demonstrated a clear understanding of what makes Battlestar Galactica special, and who have demonstrated a clear understanding of what fans expect from a true revival of our beloved show. Letters should be sent to the following addresses:

Mr. Tom DeSanto
c/o William Morris Agency
151 El Camino Drive
Beverly Hills, CA 90212

Thumbs up NEWS: Colonial Newsletter - 12/21/2003

(Continued)

Mr. Glen A. Larson
c/o Shapiro-Lichtman, Inc.
8827 Beverly Blvd
Los Angeles, CA 90048

The second round of letters, aimed at Bob Wright, President and CEO of NBC-Television (the new owners of Universal Studios, which will need to work in tandem with Larson/DeSanto to create a big-screen Battlestar Galactica), and should be mailed on 2 January 2004, with the goal of having the letters hit the NBC mailroom on or about 7 January 2004, the one-month anniversary of the airing of SciFi's mini-series. The aim of these letters is to convince NBC that there is a ripe market for a true revival of Battlestar Galactica created by DeSanto and Larson. While the authors of these letters will have the ability to cite DVD sales figures and miniseries ratings figures in support of a continuation, the main message should be clear, and along the lines of:

"We support a continuation of the Battlestar Galactica saga, in the capable hands of series creator Glen Larson and producer Tom DeSanto. If possible we would support the use of original cast members such as Dirk Benedict and Richard Hatch. We are also open to other ideas as well."

Letters (again, pen-and-paper letters, please; email should only be used to supplement a pen-and-paper letter) should be sent to the following address on 2 January 2004:

Mr. Bob Wright
President
NBC
30 Rockefeller Plaza
New York, NY 10112

We encourage every fan of Battlestar Galactica to take an active role in making this letter writing campaign the most effective in Science Fiction history. Rising together, and speaking in one unified voice, we will realize our dream.

Please check in frequently for any updates.

8. Action Alerts: For All Battlestar Galactica Fans

UPDATED! Sign the Battlestar Galactica Continuation Petitions

UPDATED! Sign the Battlestar Galactica Continuation Petitions and show your support for a continuation of the Battlestar Galactica original series! The first petition is the Battlestar Galactica Original Revival Petition for Tom DeSanto, Bryan Singer, Dan Angel, Billy Brown, Glen A. Larson, Dan Pasternack, David Kissinger, Studios USA, Vivendi Universal, Sci-Fi Channel, and the Fox Network and states that We, the fans of the original 1978 sci-fi television series "Battlestar Galactica" are signaling our sincere hopes that original cast members (and their characters) are considered for regular roles in the new "Battlestar Galactica" pilot/ongoing series from Studios USA/Fox Network/Sci-Fi Channel in 2002. This is the Battlestar Galactica Original Revival Petition and currently has 17,400+ signatures. We still support this petition, so be sure to sign your name! The second petition is the Battlestar Galactica Richard Hatch Petition and respectfully requests that Richard Hatch make his trailer, "Battlestar Galactica: The Second Coming" available to be shown on the Internet. Richard Hatch -IS- listening! If you agree with the petition, then sign the petition to make your voice heard. The third petition is the Battlestar Galactica We The Fans Petition and states that We the fans of the mighty Battlestar Galactica would like to see the combined work of Tom DeSanto and Glen Larson in a major motion picture. As fans we also hope and pray that these two men can bring about a possible continuation with both the characters and actors that made the show a worth while venture. We don't ask for much but hope for a show that will make those who passed proud (Lorne Greene, Lloyd Bridges, Jonathan Harris, and John Colicos). Finally we believe that actions can speak louder then the printed words and hope that both men will take this request to heart. The fourth petition is the Battlestar Galactica: The Continuation Petition and states that The word has been given at Galacticon. The fans want above all else a continuation of the beloved series with Richard Hatch (Apollo), Dirk Benedict (Starbuck), and as many of the other stars of the show who want to participate. I don't believe we are asking for to much as evidenced by the huge DVD sales for the original product. The fifth petition is the Battlestar Galactica Larson/DeSanto Petition for Mr. Glen A. Larson, Mr. Tom DeSanto, Mr. Bob Wright CEO of NBC, Universal Studios and states that We the fans have signed this petition to show support for a Continuation of Battlestar Galactica with the original themes/characters/cast intact, as was announced at Glen A. Larson and Tom DeSanto at Galacticon. We support a united Larson/DeSanto effort. This petition begins December 10th 2003, which is one day after the final installment of the Ronald D. Moore Psuedo-Galactica mini series which aired on the Sci Fi Channel, to show that even after it's airing, there is still support and interest in a faithful Continuation of the original Battlestar Galactica series. Make a difference, be sure to sign the five Battlestar Galactica Continuation Petitions, and spread the word!

A New Petition

New report from JJRAKMAN at the Battlestar Galactica Club Forums: "I wanted to start this petition exactly one day after the mini aired. As some of you may or may not know, Tom DeSanto said that the fate of a Battlestar Galactica continuation does not lie with how well or how poor the mini does in the ratings. But instead, it depends on if there is interest in a continuation movie after the mini airs. Let's show them there is. I know how some of you feel about petitions, that no one looks at them. Well sign it anyway, and let it serve as an affirmation to yourself and your fellow fans."

Taking Back Skiffy

Battlestar Galactica FAQ author John Larocque posted an excellent report at Colonial Fleets: "We are discussing at the alliance ways to take back Skiffy from the trolls and clones which currently monopolize it. They (or rather a small handful of troublemakers) - have a near-monopoly there because we (those of us who don't use multiple handles or troll) don't post there any more. In my last note I stated: 'We establish our presence by simply COMING BACK and discussing the SAME THINGS we discuss here at CA, CF, Subspace or Nathan's forum. It's that simple.' It doesn't matter what your opinion on the miniseries, or TOS or DeSanto, as long as you are not trolling. Sandy writes: 'The Skiffy board is being read to see how fans reacted to the miniseries. At a minimum, everyone should politely express their feelings about the miniseries. This will be part of the decision process determining if the miniseries goes to a full series or not.' Another user suggested a postathon. Even if 10% of the posts go through - if there's 50 posts presented that's 5 that actually appear. The trolls are winning through numbers. We outnumber them by: a) posting there regularly (say, 3 posts a day per user) b) posting there in numbers (say, 20 people dedicated to talking Galactica every day). In the below thread I make some suggestions on how to deal (or rather not deal) with the clones. Essentially ignore them and make your presence known." Thanks to John Larocque for posting the report at Colonial Fleets.

Leave Bonnie Hammer a Voicemail

JJRAKMAN posted a new report from at the Battlestar Galactica Club Forums: "Someone (Bijou88) posted this info at CF, it's just too good not to pass on: 'The main phone number for USA Studios and the Sci Fi Channel is: 1 (212) 413-5000. I called a few minutes ago after seeing the mini part 1. It was after 11:00 PM on the East Coast. I reached a recording that said the office was closed but if I pushed the first few digits of the person's last name I would be sent to their answering machine. For fun and not expecting to get anywhere, I pushed in H A M M E R. To my surprise, I was connected to Bonnie Hammer's voice mail! For those of you who don't know, she is the person who approved of the mini and hired Ron D. Moore to write it. I did not use any profanity, but I did let her know what I thought of the mini. They might change the number soon if Battlestar Galactica Fans flood the line with their objections so I suggest you call soon! Here is your chance to literally let the powers that be hear your feelings about the mini! Good Luck!' Also: 'If that extension is disconnected, Bonnie's message mentioned that her assistant is at (212) 413-5456.'"

Larson Predicts Battlestar the Movie in 2 Years!

New report at ColonialFleets.com from conundrum7g and Commander Taggert: "In an interview with The Baltimore Sun, series creator Glen A. Larson confirmed that he is, indeed, at work on a new Battlestar Galactica feature film. Larson said he hopes the miniseries brings new fans up to speed in time for his movie, which he hopes to have in theaters in the next two years, noted Sun writer John Coffren, who authored the article. They will be in the new film, [Larson] said. 'You can well count on our efforts being a lot more [true] to that which has generated all this interest and kept it alive all these many years. My interest is in a little more science, and I don't mean science-fiction.' The structure of the article, titled 'Battle for Galactica's Soul,' made it unclear exactly to whom or what Larson was referring when he said 'They.' There was no mention in the article of X-Men and X2 producer Tom DeSanto's involvement in the project, or with what studio Larson, who reportedly holds the movie rights to Battlestar Galactica, might be working. The complete text of the article can be viewed at the following link. SOURCE: The Baltimore Sun."

Letter Writing Tips

New report from JJRAKMAN at the Battlestar Galactica Club Forums: "1) Write your letter and save it - Since there's probably going to be umpteen opportunities to write a letter to someone, write your letter and save it in Word or some other program. Then from there on out, you'll just have to cut and paste it, so it only takes a few seconds, instead of trying to write from scratch every time. And you can always tweak words or sentences here and there to make it fit to whoever you may be sending it to. 2) Keep it to one page - Keep it short. People's attention spans are very short in this Age of Instant Gratification. So any more than one page probably won't get read. 3) Although it will be tempting to write an entire page bashing the mini. I would suggest only a few sentences. Yeah, we were pissed about the mini, but it doesn't matter anymore because at Galacticon Larson announced a possible Larson/DeSanto movie, etc. etc. etc. Let's use this opportunity to create buzz for the Larson DeSanto effort."

OT: Letter writing campaign for "V: The Second Generation"

A new related report from Michael Faries of BattlestarPegasus.com: "Kenneth Johnson, writer/director of the first 'V' mini-series on NBC-TV (U.S.) back in the 1980s, is bringing the show back AS A CONTINUATION. Warner Bros. is backing this endeavor. As the script is developed, fans are asked to participate in a letter writing campaign, in the hopes that members of the original series are included. As fans of the original 'Battlestar Galactica' we understand the importance of seeing original cast members/characters back onscreen. Please don't read this and say, 'Oh, someone else will write' or 'Why should I?' The SAME passion for the return of this series exists within 'V' fans as it does with fans of classic 'Battlestar Galactica.' Please help."

Original Soundtrack Remastered and Reissued

Geffen/UMe has issue a press release on the new Battlestar Galactica: Original Soundtrack 25th Anniversary Edition. The report mentions: "It is unusual when a TV series that lasted just one season continues to inspire a cult following 25 years later. It is phenomenally rare when the music to such a series, in fact any TV series, still receives kudos after such a passage of time. Yet that is the case with 1978's 'Battlestar Galactica.' Having recently inspired Xbox and Sony PlayStation 2 games, the release of a six-DVD boxed set and a re-imagining of the series on the Sci-Fi Channel, and with a motion picture on the drawing boards, the series' inspired and moving music now returns as well with BATTLESTAR GALACTICA: ORIGINAL SOUNDTRACK 25th ANNIVERSARY EDITION (Geffen/UMe), released November 18, 2003."
