My current creative endeavour

I'm sure you've all wondered why my blog posting hasn't been as prolific of late. I have some pretty exciting news for everyone. I had a really neat idea, and have been working night and day to bring it to fruition. My plan is to do a reboot of a classic science fiction franchise: the 2003 re-imagining of Battlestar Galactica.

I know what you're thinking: everyone loves the 2003 re-imagining of Battlestar Galactica. It's a legendary series in the annals of sci-fi. How can I possibly hope to top it? Well, the answer is that it's not about topping, or beating, or eclipsing, or anything else. I love this classic series too. I just want to update it and bring it into the present, while retaining the essence of what the 2003 re-imagining of Battlestar Galactica is.

Check your pre-conceived notions at the door, because this isn't your father's (or possibly older brother's) 2003 re-imagining of Battlestar Galactica. This series is going to be darker and more brooding. The Apollo / Adama relationship is going to be strained right from the get-go, despite the fact that they have to work with each other to save humanity. Tigh will be a real ball-buster in this version of the show. Heck, I might even make Starbuck a woman! Can you imagine? Still cigar-chomping, banging anything that moves, and getting into scrapes, but a woman. And Baltar... that son of a bitch is going to be completely off his nut. Not the moderately quirkly Baltar we've come to know and love, but genuinely goddamn crazy.

The Cylons? They were never cuddly, but sometimes they were comic book villain-y. Well, this time they're going to be downright satanic. I'm going to pull up short from making them vampire or zombie evil, but they're going to be bad news for humanity and its remnants.

The rag-tag fleet occasionally looked like it would be a nice place ot stay. No longer - my vision of the reboot of the 2003 re-imagining of Battlestar Galactica is going to include a rag-tag fleet rife with ethnic and religious strife, equipment malfunctions, personnel problems, and an overall lack of hygiene. Not to mention running short on spare parts and fuel.

I think you have a pretty good idea of why I'm so excited. This new vision of the 2003 re-imagining of Battlestar Galactica is going to introduce this storied franchise to the next generation of fans, and re-ignite the passions of fans of the old series.

Plus, there will be a ton of nudity.
