If Buck Rogers fails to make it to the big screen, fear not as a naughty movie could be made instead and we'd call it More

As long as Frank doesn't make it look like yThe Spirite happy, though I still think he's a odd choice for this. I'd be quite interested in an animated version inspired by the redesigned Buck Rogers sketch the late comic artist Mike Wieringo did last year.

| oh great |
they're going to make it all serious. If Frank Miller's attached I suspect this will be quite po-faced. Now, before the Geekoids shit their pants, let me say this. I know Miller's work, I liked Dark Knight Returns. I liked 300 and I liked Sin City. But they were heightened reality, and all original works. This is an adaptation of every young boy's favourite tv programme. Andnot because of Buck, oh no. I',m talking about Erin Grey as Wilma in those tight, tight catsuits. Fuck me she was gorgeous More

I used to love the Buck Rogers game for the Mega Drive. It was truly awesome. Of course, I was five at the time... More

Your memories are failing, guys. Twiki didn't "just say his name and over and over" (though he did spend in an inordinate amount of time doing this). He had a complete English vocab, voiced for most of the series by the fab voice actor, Mel Blanc, more famous for his Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck renditions. That's how all robots should talk! More

The South Park spoof is still the best update Rogers could ever get.
And Nathan Fillion should be in everything. Ever. Revive him if needed. More

21st century? That should be exciting seeing as he spent all of it in suspended animation.

Bidi-bidi-bidi-Buck off! I hated that little robot twat. Guy Pierce is my suggestion for Bucko. Though I'd rather a John Carter film. Never read it but sounds a very interesting story. Oh! And a live action Dan Dare! With Damian Lewis as Dare. How cool would that be!? More

Pity, Gil Gerard let himself go. He's the size of a small moon now.
Fillion would be great AND it is possible as Nu Image and Millenium Films have thr rights and they're not realyl a HUGE studio with the budget to command a huge star.
Here's hoping.

Definitely Nathan Fillion!! I'm half way through the Firefly series and I can't believe it was cancelled! Now I know what all the outrage was about from fans! This would be a perfect role for him but may leave him typecast to such movies!! Well done empire, continue to plug him for big roles and hopefully some director will pick up on it. He's had his Han Solo movie with serenity, lets see him in an indiana-esque adventure!! The new Harrison Ford! More

...that whenever an iconic role somewhere on the peripheries of nostaliga or geekiness is available, everyone will suggest Nathan Fillion. Just think how rich the guy would be if Empire forum readers ran Hollywood...! More
