Battlestar Galactica 1980: Final Alternativo The Return of Starbuck Alternative Ending - Sebasg1973

Final Alternativo de El Regreso de Starbuck, The Return of Starbuck con Dirk Benedict.
Video dedicado a los fanaticos de la Serie.

[@thomas489]

I was moved to tears by the last scene, Starbuck is sitting, despondent, all alone, no hope of survival... so sad. In the original show it happened several times, to him and to Apollo, that they were forced to land on some planet, but somehow made it back, so I could not understand - why not this time too? Even reading about the cancelled episode, many years later, cannot undo the sadness I feel when watching the episode.

[@Chanticlair47]

I recently read that had the show not been cancelled there would have been another episode called Wheel Of Fire and in that episode Starbuck was supposed to be rescued by The Ship Of Lights and he would stay with the beings of light aboard it. If it had aired it would have given us all that happy ending we longed for.

[@pferreira1983]

Yes I agree to that I seen this film when I was young and now I'm still a young man at the age of 50 I still remember it now I'm a young man for my age 50 years old I don't look my age but I still remember this film when I was young I always liked Starbuck when he was in the film The A-Team as the one person that always scams people he is named face he is one of my favourite actors I think he was and I still think he was the star of that movie what what did happened to Starbuck at the end do not forget there is a ship ready to be used because the free remaining salons are dead that means there is a ship to be used I hope you like the movie it was one of the best 80s films ever I wish there was a better ending and longer you always spoil the movie from letting it be too short it should be longer from the time it came on at 7:00 to 8:00 I think it should have went off about 8:30 it could be suitable that where to find out what did happened to the baby when he found his father and we know the baby is the young lad did he find his dad Starbuck and did both them meet the mother I think a Hendon like that could have been the best ending

[@MarkFoster321789]

@@FormatorBlack Exactly. Initially conceived by Larson as ADAM’S ARK in 1967-68 which he developed at Universal Television with former STAR TREK producer Gene L. Coon. I guess Lucas was feeling jealous that he was going to be upstaged! Also he was unhappy with VFX supervisor John Dykstra’s involvement with his own company APOGEE, hiring many personnel who worked on A NEW HOPE.

+fawdown It would've been interesting if the planet they were on had been named Krypton. The scene with the ship reminded me of Jor El & Lara somewhat.

[@twilightzoneseinfeld]

+fawdown Well the episode where the Cylons landed on Earth in Halloween wasn't so bad. It wasn't really GOOD, but it was watchable. The funny thing is that this episode does something that the 2003 reboot never did, and that was make you feel for a Cylon without having to make them look human. I mean yeah they are humanoid to begin with, but they don't have human faces or asses.

[@YoStu242]

I suppose this and 2 other cylon episodes were the only watchable ones in this lame series. Oh, and the simulated cylon attack in first episode. Yepp, that's about it.

[@101Mant]

Nobody remembers the characters from that show, just the original. They were bland and forgettable, this was the only good episode and it had none of them in it.

[@fkerpants]

It was terrible. They had little to no budget, the network was cold to it, the writing was awful, and the stories were hokey at best. If the original show had been given the chance to go more than one season, it may very well have developed into something so much more interesting.

This show sucked but this episode was classic. I hope the bring back Galactica again but true to the original characters and optimistic ideals. Doom and gloom in remakes has been overdone. They call the original Galactica campy and say the same for Flash Gordon 1979. What producers don’t understand is that grit don’t sell if it doesn’t entertain. I liked Galactica 2003 but it’s time to bring back the original Starbucks, Apollo, Boomer archetypes.

[@stormcutter59]

I couldn't agree more, man. As a young guy myself, I've become more than tired of nihilistic TV shows. It's the number one reason I would rather this series stay dormant for now. I mean look what they did to Star Wars and Star Trek. So far, it seems like Battlestar ended up with probably the best track record just by ratio alone.

[@stormcutter59]

The original series died a premature death far too soon. It felt like it really never had enough time to really get off the ground, but this couldnt last between the threat of legal disputes by Lucas and the expense of the original show taking its toll. I loved Starbuck and the crew, hated 1980 for taking all that away without solid explanation, only to be greeted with what felt like a solemn goodbye. This episode felt like not just the goodbye to a hero, but a goodbye to the legacy that could have been. Battlestar stuck around long enough to intrigue many fans, but i felt at least one more solid season would have solidified it as one of the great sci fi legends of the golden age of space TV. It had so much going for it, rough edges and all.

[@battlestarmarc]

So Starbuck take the ship that the 3 cylons made it to that planet with and escape. Per canon he has flown cylon raiders before.

[@annbermingham360]

True. 1978 show had models and no computer graphics to rely on. Whatever anyone else says, man/woman progresses. Babylon5 was one of first to convince science fiction on TV was "profitable". People progressed, with their ideas and consciousness. The last Battle Star was light years ahead in script, acting, actors, etc. Wonder the next 20 years will bring? I always say, "I'm waiting for the Holodeck"

[@jlee9735]

Ann Bermingham I read that Glen Larson was going to make a remake of the 1978 Battlestar Galactica movie now that he passed away I wonder if that's going to take place it would be interesting to see an updated Battlestar Galactica movie from from the original series because they could do more with computer you know animated because one thing that always bothered me about the original and had all the Battle Stars at the beginning but they barely showed the other Battle Stars or even mention them other than the Atlantia but there were other battlestars they could have showed the cylons doing more damage so I hope that they do do a remake movie I'll definitely see it

[@TREBONIANVS]

I have never understood why they didn't just make a continuation animated series like Star Trek did in the 70s...only not a Saturday morning cartoon with horrible graphics but a really cool CGI adult aimed show. After all it would be targeted at Gen X & Baby Boomers...oh wait TV only produces shows aimed at 18-35 year olds. I guess that explains that.

It suck that the Battlestar Galactica didn't go looking for Starbuck

[@dq1275]

"Return of Starbuck" was originally conceived to be a pilot episode for Galactica 1980, according to some fan-lore. Starbuck having made the ultimate sacrifice dies but is rescued by the Beings of Light. Meanwhile, Apollo and the fleet find Earth and Starbuck appears as "John" on Terra to guide Apollo to set right on Earth what once went wrong. Richard Hatch declined the series and Dirk wasn't available at the beginning of the season. Don Bellasario was involved in this concept and ultimately ported the idea to become the cornerstone of a new NBC series, "Quantum Leap" When the Return of Starbuck was produced, Glen Larson already knew the series was cancelled. The creative team was trying to come up with an ending for the fans but also try new concepts for their future.

[@williamk3702]

Just watched the DVD of this - I remembered the episode as ending really abruptly, with (spoiler) Cmdr. Adama saying to Dr Zee, 'that child, was YOU!' - but now there's this stuff with them peering out of a porthole, and saying 'the answer lies out there!', and a final shot of Starbuck on the planet. Are there two versions or did my child-mind self just scramble and edit things all those centuries ago?

[@deryaergul8261]

What I liked most about the original Starbuck character is that she always had a side that cared about diplomacy. The next generation Starbuck would never reactivate or communicate with a Cylon Centurion, but the original Starbuck was more open-minded. Maybe that's why they changed his character. because if he was the original Starbuck, the Cylon civil war would have started much earlier as he would have seduced the female models.
