Battlestar Galactica - The Complete Series (DVD)

Before watching the new imagined series of this show, I made my wife buy the original series boxset for nostalgia. Though it has always had its critics, this original series always held a warm spot in my heart that has never ever gone away.

Battlestar galactica the movie is basicaly the first few episodes welded into one film. It is about humans who are about to be wiped out by the evil cylons who are robots with very lame voices and the battlestar galactica is the last big fighting ship left after the cylons attacked and practically killed everyone except for the galactica and a small amount of civilian ships.the rest of the film is about how the galactica manages to ilude their enemy and get away from the robots with lame voices!
