Battlestar Iraqtica

Though Hollywood was slow to portray the war in theatrical features, now a whole batch of Iraq movies are set to come out — including Paul Haggis’ In the Valley of Elah.

The latest incarnation of a cheesy sci-fi show from the 70s: “Battlestar Galactica.” Produced by Eric Molinsky.
