Angry Patches Ripped off

Ok can someone please tell me why other shows feel the need to rip off items from the original show? My main beef is this. I surfed the channels this morning and had to stop at Scifi. There was something that caught my eye and made me do a double take. I saw the original BSG patch on some uniform. So curiousity took hold and I forced myself to watch this Brated movie. They had put on a NASA uniform the BSG PATCH!!!! To make sure I wasn't seeing things, I went to my costume box and pulled out my patch I have and darn skippy they were the same!!!! The name of the movie was "Fall Out" and it was made 1998. And a Baldwin boy was in it.... Daniel Baldwin (never heard of him to be honest but hes one of them boys cuz he looks like the others....). 1998-that just floors me! I could see it if it was made so soon after the original but 1998!!!?????!!!!!! WTF!!!!! It just kills me how much the original is stolen from. *sigh* Dare I ask what is next??

A lot of shows and movies do this. Producers or writers will find something that they are fond of and find a way of slipping it in.

Kevin Smith did this with Star Wars. Seinfeld did the same with Superman.

Only true fans of things slip things like this in their films.
