areaseven Posted October 4, 2011 Posted October 4, 2011 FremantleMedia announced they will produce a TV series based on Universal Soldier. Damian Kindler (Stargate SG-1, Stargate: Atlantis) has been mentioned as the series writer. Universal Soldier Is Going to Be a TV Show Quote
Agent ONE Posted October 4, 2011 Posted October 4, 2011 (edited) Lets look at the success of the movie series! Universal Soldier - Awesome, though kinda in a 'bad 80's movie kind of way' Universal Soldier 2 - Made for TV crap Universal Soldier 3 - More Made for TV crap Universal Soldier the Return (the new Universal Soldier 2) - Bad and written by someone who didn't even watch the first one Universal Soldier Regeneration (the new NEW Universal Soldier 2) - Brought Dolph back, but was still pretty bad. I just wanted to point out that there is ONE Universal Soldier film of that name, but they have made a true sequel of that original movie THREE times... Thats right there are THREE Universal Soldier 2 films!!! It is so insane I can't stand it. There has NEVER been a franchise that has been this fuked up. EVER. And having said that, I am sure the show will be TERRIFIC. Edited October 4, 2011 by Agent ONE Quote
reddsun1 Posted October 4, 2011 Posted October 4, 2011 Methinks this one ought to be fast-tracked right on over to the WORST Sci-Fi TV series of all time..... thread. Quote
VT 1010 Posted October 4, 2011 Posted October 4, 2011 Universal Soldier - Awesome, though kinda in a 'bad 80's movie kind of way' It was made in the 90's. Unfortunately I don't know if that helps it or hurts it. I haven't seen it in years. I may have to watch it again... Isn't this kind of like Highlander though? One awesome movie followed by a bunch of shitty sequels? Quote

Dynaman Posted October 4, 2011 Posted October 4, 2011 Methinks this one ought to be fast-tracked right on over to the WORST Sci-Fi TV series of all time..... thread. Maybe, but Stargate was really not a very good movie and they made three decent TV shows out of it. And besides, nothing can top the current reigning champ for worst scifi show of all time... Quote

Hikuro Posted October 4, 2011 Posted October 4, 2011 DO A BARREL ROLL! I mean reboot. It's something that could totally use a reboot. and preferably not have former or current junkies in it. Quote
Keith Posted October 4, 2011 Posted October 4, 2011 Because the Timecop tv series was such a hit.... Quote
Dynaman Posted October 4, 2011 Posted October 4, 2011 Because the Timecop tv series was such a hit.... There was a Timecop TV series? Quote
areaseven Posted October 4, 2011 Author Posted October 4, 2011 There was a Timecop TV series? Yup. Nine episodes long. Timecop Quote
Dynaman Posted October 4, 2011 Posted October 4, 2011 Yup. Nine episodes long. Oops, my humor was a bit too dry... Quote
myk Posted October 5, 2011 Posted October 5, 2011 Ah gotta love those failed 90's shows. Knight Rider 2010 comes to mind... Quote
Gaijin Posted October 5, 2011 Posted October 5, 2011 It was made in the 90's. Unfortunately I don't know if that helps it or hurts it. I haven't seen it in years. I may have to watch it again... Isn't this kind of like Highlander though? One awesome movie followed by a bunch of shitty sequels? If so, then the Universal Soldier series should be pretty good. The Highlander show was great until the final season. Quote
