Less talk - more fight

[davekill]

One thing that makes a young geeks heart skip a beat is a good pitched space battle.
From Battlestar Galactica's Slug Throwers and Nukes to Treks Phasers and Shields, the strategy of two capital ships going toe to toe is a thing of beauty!

One example: what B5 lacked in CG it more than made up in FX shots.

Less talk, more fight - enough said.

No one does this type of special effects anymore, or at least, the possibility of it is disappearing with SGU.  :(.  I really hope someone has the courage to make a space sci-fi show again.

For sheer scope and scale: Battlestar Galactica can't be beat.

projectiles vs. armor plate and no one simply disappears in a fire ball.

Uh-oh... Too many similarities here.
In: uniforms, ships, weapons, defenses and Series titles that start with a "B"

Fighting with cloak and shields - Trek style
Sparring in graceful arcs, energy beams explode in a lethal ballet or a crowded sky
These ships are sleek and powerful
