Yeah, it was definitely a post-Star Wars thing, but didn't seem to realise quite what made it such a success.
Buck Rogers in the 25th Century, Battlestar Galactica, The Black Hale, Battle Beyond the Stars. I couldn't get enough of that stuff as a kid.
And yeah, also a fan of Alien 3. Not many people like it. It's definitely the odd one out in the franchise. Although I saw it again quite recently and it wasn't as good as I remembered. By the same token, I could never stand Aliens until I saw that again, too, and enjoyed it a lot more.
