Default Re: 12 hrs of Star Wars vs 20 hrs of Galactica...

Interesting discussion.

Well, I will say it from the view,perspective of 1977-78

Star Wars blew me away. (Ep-IV) As with e-1 else
- was aqbout 12 years old.
And Empire Strikes back was indeed a Great Film.
Cemented Star Wars as an Icon.

It took us out of this world, out of our world. Literally it did.

BSG was almost same reaction. But it was more earthly bound or related.
The characteristics of flight were more earthly.As a kid it was very very cool to see the flight scenes and models. It was like something you might
get to do later on. something that seemed possible.


Overall in post years of both, I sway to and fro on these Titles.

Star Wars being the fantasy and BSG being more earth bound/related.

Even more so than Star Trek.
