I think BSG will go down in history as the only SciFi franchise that is going to have many versions... I do think that Ron Moore version is awesome and I do like Glenn Larson version..

Ron Moore's version was a pornographic bastardization.
I have little hope for this "reboot" version; it won't capture what made the original series so memorable: family and mythology.
When you have puff-piece articles saying a just hired writer has been a lifelong fan of the classic version of anything the end result will be terrible. Soon it'll be described as re-imagined and edgy.

You mean they just can’t (heaven forbid) change names of characters and give the show a whole new title? I mean, really, sci-fi writers have been ripping off each other for years anyway.

Just won't be the same.

I really wanted the Richard Hatch version to take off. It's a pity that it didn't. He had the vision and the mythology in place and was going to take it forward ... only with better special effects.
Another *beginning* isn't really needed. Especially after the last one wrapped up only recently. ("recently" if you consider prequels and movies and such.)

I think BSG will go down in history as the only SciFi franchise that is going to have many versions... Too late: The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy was published as a novel, radio drama, record album, TV series, computer game, and movie. No two alike. Douglas Adams had his hand in all of them, which just makes it more amusing.
With regards to a feature-film BSG treatment, my question is: Why? It just seems a little soon to me for yet another reboot.
