Geez, guys, light en up! What I find utterly amazing is that I can post a silly little article about the remake of a really bad sci-fi show from the 70s (that I loved, by the way) and get over 200 replies and a flame spat (doesn't qualify as a war) in the space of about 5 hours.

I'm light baby ;) The fandom community is home to great passion, I do the convention thing this isn't at all unusual. Try telling one of your favorite authors that you think his new series blows, it's even funnier when he says that he hates it too but the publisher rejects every idea that could make it not suck and they're paying really well so he stopped arguing. What's fun is that within hours of the Galatica remake there will be somebody on the net (maybe on FR, probably on Ain't It Cool) saying it was the best thing ever they should have given it an original name so it didn't have all that crappy 70s baggage to drag along; and this is no matter how bad the thing sucks. Somebody loves everything, somebody hates everything, the truth is usually somewhere in the middle (except with SAAB which totally sucked... kidding... sort of).

I get your point. I even asked discostu to calm down in a previous post on this thread and he threw it back in my face.
