UPDATE * THE CONTEST IS NOW OFFICIALLY OVER!
Original Story * Okay, so I changed my mind and decided to begin the contest with its own separate posting instead of hiding it inside a random posting. I just thought it was more fair that way. And if you’re saying ‘what?’ then don’t worry about it. It’s not important.

He apparently finds them to be life-like and freaky looking. And he would be right. But his reaction to it is gold. And funny.

Bears… Beets… Battlestar Galactica! Frack yeah!
Long before we had Miami Vice play Commander Adama, who led a rag-tag fugitive fleet on a lonely quest to a shining planet known as Earth, we had Bonanza occupying the very same role. Or respectfully, I should say Edward James Olmos played the role more recently, but the role was originated by the now departed Lorne Greene. Greene gave a more fatherly portrayal of the overburdened Commander whereas Olmos performance was a bit more militaristically grounded and less approachable (and grumpier). And don’t get me wrong, I loved Olmos’ portrayal. He played it just perfectly for the reboot.

“1941” was an action/adventure period comedy directed by Steven Spielberg and written by Robert Zemeckis and Bob Gale (of “Back to the Future” fame). It was released in 1979 and even though it sported an incredible cast of characters (Dan Aykroyd, John Belushi, John Candy, Ned Beatty, Christopher Lee, Toshiro Mifune, Robert Stack, Treat Williams, the list goes on) it was considered one of Spielberg’s weakest films, both critically and financially.
