Hi Guina! Welcome to the forum!
Like your comments on the film... let's just hope it comes off!
If they are planning a trilogy then I would hope that they are going into the whole thing with a lot more thought than was put into Thunderbirds for example!
There have been some good updates of older films.. I particularly liked Batman and The Dark Knight, but I think most fans are thinking about Tbirds/Charlies' Angels/ that sort of complete farago!
I am concerned about the musical director as well. Richard Sortomme seems to be rather light classical and I like my Film music thunderous and multi-layered... Zimmer, Shore, Djawadi, Horner...any of those would be great. but I don't think we will get dramatic, awe-inspiring sounds from Sortomme.. Not sure if I've spelt his name right!
AS for your list of what you don't want to see..
I couldn't agree more!
Although I think the use of wigs was a necessity rather than a fashion statement! Michael Billington was rather thin on top and Ed Bishop didn't want to keep having to bleach his hair every ten days or so.
The chain smoking was really too much, as was the eyeliner.
I think that Sylvia was heading in the right direction with make-up for guys, but didn't really carry the thought through logically. Would a military unit allow men to wear make-up? Unlikely!
And the clothes ( well the catsuits) were just because Gerry fancied bums...... how many shots of female 'behinds' were there in the first episode!
I'm with you on the Nehru suits as well.. fabulous 'military' stying, but towards the end of the series they looked poorly made and the jumpers that they wore underneath were very badly fitting. So, as you said, decent materials and designs needed...( but I hope they keep some sort of purple wig for the moonbase girls!)
ANd the episodes? You've read my mind. those are my four favourite ones. Gritty, dark, mysterious and of course with The Man (as Denise and I call him) in the lead. ..
Oh we can but dream.......
Chances are this will be a duff movie. If it gets made. >
Good to have another UFO fan on board... we'd love to know more about you. I think there's info about the rest of us on the forum.. posted in an earlier welcome message.
Great Andromeda Nebulae eh? Not much chance of seeing you at the Convention then in Bristol this October!

(unless you have a FTL spaceship!)
