Sadly, no, SyFy apparently panicked like a panicked thing when that trailer leaked all over and Stern released a statement this afternoon that B&C won't be a series. It may become a webseries, and the movie will get a showing on Syfy at some point but it's not gonna be a series. boo.

and hee, I'm loving the io9 game. I hate Last Stand like some people hate TPM -- I don't even care that it's probably a "better" film than the Dr Moreau (which I also dislike strongly), but not nearly to the levels of loathing.

Yes, I read that too :( At least there will be a movie.

The only one I loathe is Battlefield Earth. I do it out of a principle as I've never seen it whole but I hated the book (piece of complete drivel) and the film, from the fragments I was able to stomach and descriptions, is even worse. (And I hate scientology).

I also get letting personal feelings get in a way in a poll like that as I would vote for all Emmerich movies (Ok, except Stargate) in that game. Just because I think they are a set of random effects bound together just because they look cool without making any sense. I feel cheated by their absence.

I don't feel that strongly about movies that just have out of character behaviour and contradict their own cannon (TPM, X3 or even Transformers) as they at least have some kind of internal coherence and something plot-like. I've seen Pluto Nash and it was so bad I don't even remember it. I blanked it out. That's bad. The others should really compete in the Most Disappointing Film ever.
