Alfons managed to make it through the movie ‘Wing Commander’. I discussed it earlier over here.
“However I do recommend watching the movie: there is a huge difference between producing a video game and a movie. Wing Commander (the movie) sets a neat example of things gone wrong. Terrible.”
Almost related: Last night Space Channel showed the first part of the pilot of Battlestar Galactica. I have no clue what the fuzz is all about, but I think the hard-core fans of the older series are plain wrong: I was surprised about the details of space travel and space combat. It’s finally done right, I think. Not that I watch too much TV anyways. I actually don’t consider myself an SF freak.
BG was one of two English language shows on TV when I worked in Aalsmeer in 1986 – the other was the crappy Canadian police show “In the Heat of the Night”.

Was that a Canadian show?? Who would have thought: that was a crappy show :).
