Geoschmo, for the
era that they came from the special effects were impressive. But by todays standards they are indeed campy. Hell even effects done in the movie ID4 are weak by todays standards.
Starhawk, I did not say that they should make new costumes for actors to play in.

I said that the cost for making the original cylons in a CGI format was obviously to expensive.
I seldom understand the need to reinvent the wheel when the old wheel worked fine. Just rebuild it with current technology. I for one think that CGI rendered original Cylons, with humans cylons as well, would have worked neatly. I have seen the "new" cylon robots, and they are kinda spookly looking, but I honestly prefer the originals far more than I do the new ones.
