The series Eick has planned though will take a differnt approach to Cuaron’s film. “It’s really taking root more in the origins of the novel in that it will focus on the cultural movement in which young people become the society’s utter focus,” Battlestar Galactica’s executive producer told SCIFI Wire. “It’s about how, when you don’t have a responsibility to the next generation and you’re free to do whatever you want, where do you draw the line?”<\/p>\n
