Galacticon: What Glen Larson said about revival

Colonial Fleets administrator conundrum7g posted a report of Glen A. Larson's discussion panel at Galacticon. The report states: "There was no big announcement, but Glen A. Larson did clarify his position and it sounded good. He said he paid a large sum of money to get back the rights to a Galactica movie. He said he can even do the version with walking vipers if he wanted to, though that's not something he is interested in. He also talked about how he and Tom DeSanto would like to do it together, provided he can tear Tom away from X-Men long enough to do it. And Tom said he is interested in doing something too! But he said he is waiting. A lot depends on how the audience changes after the mini airs. Will the vast public, and the fans of Battlestar Galactica migrate over to the new one and forget the original? Or will demand for a continuation stay strong? If there is a demand he will do what he can to make a movie with DeSanto." Many thanks to conundrum7g for the report!

Create a Battlestar Galactica BOOK COVER style piece to be hosted in the Gallery section here at BattlestarGalactica.com, and the best judged art will win the DVD.

If you do use 3D models of someone else’s making, you *must* credit that model maker!) The finished art piece must look like a book cover. Your own name should be in the 'authors' slot. E-mail entries to Darrell Lawrence with Battlestar Galactica Art contest in the Subject line. Prize award date/winner announcement to be announced at a later date."
