loved the show growing up.....caught some repeats online....love to see a new incarnation with modern special effects.especially with the stargates and the starfighters...wonder who they can get to play the draconian queen ?

Nathan Fillion should play him!

George Lucas said he always wanted to direct one-; )

George Lucas always wanted to do Flash Gordon, not Buck Rogers .. they are very similar characters though. :-)

The Gil Gerrard version had two seasons - the original one where he was based on Earth and then the sillier one where he was exploring the galaxy with "hawkman". :-(

I always like the series very much....so i hope make this new version cool and exciting.

A Buck Rogers movie would be awesome. It already has a fan base from the 80's. I remember how much apart of pop culture it was.

Don't make the same mistake the Producers did on the Knight Rider movie that recently came out. The Director or Producer needs to take a look at the Pilot from the 80's. The pilot for Buck Rogers could have almost been good enough for the big screen. It was mature but, still had the fun sci-fi. The show started to get to kiddie as it went into a series and it looked cheaper to.

Don't go the Battle Star Galactica route. The remake is a great show. But, they lost a lot of the original fan base when they turned it into mad max in outer space. It is still a great show but, those who try to take the same risk a second time always fail.

I would go with more high tech and more fantasy like they did with the star wars prequels. Don't forget the romance for the female audience.
