SCI FI Channel announced a slate of 28 new original movies premiering on Saturday nights throughout 2006, the most of any year to date. The network has been averaging more than 2 million viewers for its Saturday night movie franchise, with the March 26 premiere of Alien Apocalypse, starring Bruce Campbell, achieving a Saturday-night record of more than 2.7 million viewers. Campbell will also appear in another SCI FI original, Man with the Screaming Brain, in September.

The following projects were among those announced for 2006:

•Fire Alien, a tongue-in-cheek film about a fire-breathing alien starring William Shatner.

(Dierna note: William Shatner is a fire breathing alien??? :o )

•Gryphon, an epic fantasy about a prince and princess from opposing sides of two warring kingdoms who must join forces to defeat a mystical gryphon conjured by an evil wizard.

(Dierna note: Ooh!! :o )

•Heat Stroke, an action-adventure from Farscape executive producer David Kemper about an alien invasion which leads to massive global warming.

(Dierna note: This happened in the Archie series TMNT comics!!! )

•Citadel, starring Corin Nemic as a member of an elite corps of American soldiers who must destroy a creature unleashed on Europe by the Nazis after D-Day.

(Dierna note: Gooo Corin Nemic! :P)

•Black Hole Terror (working title), a thriller from director Tibor Takacs (Mansquito) about a failed experiment which threatens to swallow the entire Midwest. Kristy Swanson and Judd Nelson star.

(Dierna note: A black hole in the midwest??? Kansas is Doooomed...)

•Squid/Tentacles (working title), a creature feature starring a giant squid which attacks the crew of a treasure-hunting expedition.

(Dierna note: 20 Thousand Leagues under the Sea, Numa style.. :lol: )

SCI-Fi were idiots for not picking up the new series of Doctor Who, it's owning EVERY show in the U.K at the moment without even blinking, combine that with Galactica rather than waste time on these movies and they'll be hard to top, they already have quality shows like SG-1 and Atlantis.

Meh, I'd rather they just make more episodes of Battlestar faster. That show ownz all.
