In yet another film patterned on _The Seven Samurai_or Magnificent Seven- a band of diverse heroes in outer space are assembled to defend a planet of peaceful colonists from an armada of aggressors. If the special effects look familiar, it is because you've the same space sequences recycled in other low budget SF films.

Battle Beyond the Stars is a Roger Corman-produced science fiction film, directed by Jimmy T. Murakami and released in 1980. The film is notable in that the screenplay was partly written by John Sayles, the score was by James Horner and the special effects were directed by James Cameron. Several of the effects shots were re-used for other films throughout the 1980's. An example of this can be seen during the movie theater fight scene at the end of Bachelor Party. Additionally the space ship models and effects were re-used in the film Space Raiders.



Battle Beyond the Stars is a big sci fi space epic which contains all the things you could ask for in a space oriented opera;many strange alien beings,an evil overlord with a massive spaceship,other worldly planets,implausable space fight scenes,androids,a talking space ship,well known,if down on their luck actors in roles you may not expect them to be in,the underdog overcoming the evil force in the galaxy,and not forgetting a romance involving the lead characters.This movie suceeds someplaces and fails other places as well.It is better than most of those post Star Wars rip offs,but no where is it as grand,clever entertainment as that epic turned out to be.In otherwords,like many type movies,it just dosen't stick with you after you watch it and want to see the further adventures of these characters and situation,that they appear in.Just see it and thats about it.The model impressive to a point,is just old models grewed together to look like those big special effects star ships of Star Wars.The acting ok,but no where does it go into epic drama as those players in the Star Wars Trillogies.The characters and situations creative to a point,but fail to go further,than well this another cheapo,low budget film by Roger Corman.

[edit] Production
Prior to production, a Hollywood trade paper announced that John Wayne would star in the film under the direction of Ingmar Bergman. In all likelihood this was a joke either by the trade paper or the film's publicist. At the time of its release, it was the most expensive film produced by Roger Corman - much of the budget allegedly went toward paying the salaries of George Peppard and Robert Vaughn.

Some of the audio effects such as laser blasts are re-use of sounds from the "Battlestar Galactica" series.
One of the main star ships seen in the movie was noted for appearing to have a breast-shaped front to the ship. (As seen in the movie poster)
The film is notable for the enormous amount of up and coming talent who worked on it. James Cameron got his start doing Art Direction for the film, Gale Anne Hurd produced, James Horner wrote one of his first film scores for the picture, and John Sayles wrote the script.

[edit] Plot
The story is a pastiche of Akira Kurosawa's film Seven Samurai and its western remake, The Magnificent Seven. The farmers of the peaceful planet Akir, (duh)-named in honor of Akira Kurosawa, are threatened by the space tyrant Sador (played by Corman regular John Saxon,who dosen't bring in much of a villianous preformance carrying the old Eli Wallach role).Sador works with Kelvin,who are green skinned scared henchmen types,mute aliens,who have no voice or ears,but comminicate throught heat.How this is done,is never explained.

''The peace loving inhabitants of the planet Akir are threatened with extintion unless they submit to a ruthless conquorer,Sador,who poses the most awesome weapon in the universe-a stellar converter.''.I guess the Empire isn't around in other parts of the universe,with a Death Star or the Borg don't exist here in this universe,with Borg Cubes.While Sador is engaged in eliminating his bad headaches and plastic face,plus other planets which refuses to submit,the Akira-would that not be Akirans ?and not Akira have a breif spell in which organize a defence campaign.I guess,nobody else,is using this time to also organize a defefense campaign or least ways,we didn't see themm arrive in time for the great epic battle to come.Love hollyweird general statement writing to up the pressure on the heroes,while falling on their asses with it makes no sense plot point.If Sadors goes around blowing planets,you'd every free star system would be out for his blood.See.this where sticking close the bandit idea of the Magnifiscent Seven and not using the great threat to all planets of space would have worked their favor.You up the plot point to a series of galactic worlds,the little bandit idea falls through and you get an rebel alliance of free worlds,not one village against a bunch of bandits,hiring guns to fight for them.



Richard Thomas plays Shad, who looks out of placehere,in this story-only casted because,he played John Boy on the Waltons,who sets out to recruit a band of mercenaries to fight Sador. The high point of his character,really is the breast ship he flies and it's talking artificial intilligent computer,Nell with a female voice of Lynn Carlin-other than that,there not much I can say about Shad-because as a stand in for either Luke Skywalker or Yule Brenners Chris,the gun for hire,he played in the Magnificent Seven.This band includes Gelt, played by Robert Vaughn in a part that is essentially a reprise of his role in The Magnificent Seven with many of the same lines of dialogue; His character,wasn't much more than a quite ,stiff talking hard ass-little more than the character,he'd often play as an irretating audience member of Conan O'Brien-who'd tell the talk show host what would he do-when he's alone in the night.The deadly assassin Gelt,has amassed a large fortune from his assassination,yet is hunted throughtout the galaxy.This is a subplot tossed in to give him a deadly character,whereas George Lucas,would given it as a sub plot for his character in the next chapter of a series of movies,but here it's just a throw away character motive.Gelt,lives on a planet alone,sleeps with his back to the wall,when he can sleep,and only way John Boy-I mean Shad can temp him into joining his fight is offer him food and a place to hide.



Robert Vaughn in BATTLE BEYOND THE STARS



Shad: [after Gelt dies] Prepare a meal
unknown (extra): A meal, sir?
Shad: Full course. Bury it with him.
unknown (extra): Bury it?
Shad: That was our arrangement. A meal and a place to hide.



George Peppard (who was originally considered to play Vin, Steve McQueen's character, in The Magnificent Seven) as a space cowboy; Peppard,looks like Banacek,on a space drinking binch,dressed up as a urban cowboy,despensing drinks from his utilty belt gadget and Saint-Exmin, a member of the alien Valkyrie race, played by Sybil Danning.mostly there for her cleavage,which networks wanted to cover up,when the movie was shown on network tv.Go figure.Her character,isn't much beyond,that despite,the creators and her trying to put more into the role,like her death scream. Her race the Valkiri-sort of corn ball name,have a motto ''Live fast,die young and have a beautiful ending.''




The rest of the interstellar Magnificent Seven,include-a bunch of flying saucer aliens,Nestor-five clones who work in unison,because they are telepathically link.A neet idea-but the execution here kinda sucks-with white skin and bulby heads.A lizard character,Cayman,who isn't beyond his make up.His planet was destroyed by Sador and his stiff headached acting.Nanelia-beautiful daughter of some doctor character-who I remember as Sam Jaffe's head sticking out of a hole ,like a head on a plate.

The film contains many of the clichés that came to dominate sci-fi films following Star Wars including giant spaceships, exotic aliens and the finale of a suicidal assault on a space fortress.Like the Magnicent Seven,that it tries to imatate,each character death scene,looks staged and forced-like when Robert Vaugh,stupidly gets killed by unseen gunfire or Jame Coburn is shot by bandits unknown or Charles Bronson,is killed by unseen bandits,trying to protect the village kids.

Footage from the movie was used in the creation of the laser disk game Astron Belt.When this film debuted in the summer of 1980, little note was made of it other than being a ripoff of "Star Wars". And ofcourse,to a point it was,being that the the heroic characters of Star Wars,were infact,George Lucases,version to the Magnificent Seven.1)Luke Skywalker,2)Obi Wan Ben Kenobi,3)Han Solo.4)Chewbacca.5)Princess Leah.6)C3PO and 7)R2D2-making seven heroes in all-Londo Callrisian as Ben Kenobi's replacement.It is little wonder someone tried to place the Magnificent Seven in space.Shame here is,.why hasn't someone tried a better movie about this concept since.Battle Beyond the Stars,unfortunely,has much of Robert Corman's cheapness and rushed out productions.It looks as cheap as a tv movie-filmed in a week,with lots of despirate actors and little creativety.



Roger Corman is well known for creating b-movies,although this space epic is a good exception,it still looks low budget and cheaply made.The script and movie was filmed in only 5 weeks,on a budget of just two million to jump in on the ''Star Wars.''bandwagon,like Battlestar Galactica and Buck Rogers,was at this time.



James Cameron was originally hire to join the inhouse special effects team,who maybe should have directed the movie instead,proved himself effective and was quickly promoted to art director,who also functioned as an effects cameraman and model builder.This maybe why the film has a few creative looks to it,where as most New World Picture productions look as cheap as a weekend porno film.Many of this movies team would later stay with James Cameron on other projects.

However, long after its initial release, this film has had a renaissance of sorts, and is being rightly rediscovered as not only paying homage to "Star Wars" but a great many other films as well.

Many of the actors and crew members have created vibrant careers for themselves as a result of their work in this film and have gone on to even larger successes.




Jaffee in BATTLE BEYOND THE STARS (1980)



[to Nestor]
Cowboy: I'm from Earth. Ever hear of it?



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[to Gelt]
Cowboy: I'm from Earth. Know where that is?



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Cowboy: [upon seeing Gelt] Well, Shad, who's this?
Shad: Do you want your name used?
Gelt: My name is Gelt.
Cowboy: Howdy, Gelt. I'm from Earth. Know where that is?
Gelt: I was born in space.
Cowboy: Okay, well, just know that I've always got your back.
Gelt: Nobody goes behind me!
Cowboy: Oh, you keep a tail light on, huh?



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Cowboy: [after seeing Gelt blast a ship] Ha, ha! I love watching a pro work!



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Nell: 30 seconds and counting, Zed. 29, 28, 27, 24, 15, 22... did I... did I say 15?



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Nestor 1: [eating a hot dog for the first time] There's no dog in this.
Cowboy: Uh-uh.
Nestor 1: Hydrolyzed vegetable protein, soybean meal, niacin, dextrose, and sodium nitrate flavoring.
Cowboy: Yup, that's what we call "meat" back home/



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Shad: [after Gelt dies] Prepare a meal
unknown (extra): A meal, sir?
Shad: Full course. Bury it with him.
unknown (extra): Bury it?
Shad: That was our arrangement. A meal and a place to hide.



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[after Shad and Company have arrived on Akir]
Cayman of the Lambda Zone: HAIL THE CONQUERING HEROES!
Shad: I'm sorry; they must be afraid.
Cayman of the Lambda Zone: Afraid of what?
Shad: All of you. They're not accustomed to violence, or to violent forms.
Saint-Exmin: That's a hell of a note!



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[as "Hammerhead," Sador's dreadnaught, is approaching Akir]
Yago: This is Akir, a planet of stone with a single green spot.
Sador: Let's see it. What about their forms?
Yago: Comparable with ours. They have a solar technology. No known defense capacity.
Sador: Interesting. Let's check that...
[to Shad and the other Akira]
Sador: ...
[shouts]
Sador: Hear me, beings of Akir. I am Sador of the Malmori. I have come with my forces to conquer you. If you resist, I will crush you. I possess a stellar converter, the most powerful weapon in the universe. You cannot resist me. I want your planet to be my colony. Your harvest comes in seven risings of your red giant. I shall return then, and you will accept me as your master. If you do not submit, your planet and all life on it will be burned to ash...
[shouts]
Sador: You are mine.



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[Saint-Exmin has bested Shad and Nell in a dogfight]
Saint-Exmin: The Valkyrie are great warriors. In our youth we must leave home, and fight in as many battles as possible, until we have proven ourselves.
Shad: Well, you've proven yourself to be a pain in the neck. So why don't you just...
Saint-Exmin: Because, all the same, I wish to join your war against the Malmori.
Shad: [exasperated] My PLANET is in danger, and you're playing TAG with me! Your ship is like a toy; you have no firepower.
Saint-Exmin: It is one of the fastest in the universe.
Shad: Still, the Varda teach us that "swift rain is little rain."
[He breaks it off with her]
Nell: Pretty harsh, weren't you?
Shad: You saw her. She was PLAYING with me.
Nell: Yes... and she WON.



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[in Gelt's lair and treasure chamber]
Shad: I'm hiring mercenaries for defense of the planet Akir. But food and shelter are all we can offer in payment. All our wealth is in our culture.
Gelt: I could buy your planet ten times over with what I've gathered in this room: plutonium, cadmium, quanine crystals... I've been very well paid for my work.
Shad: I'm sorry; I've wasted your time...
Gelt: NO... WAIT... Listen to the rest of it. I sleep with my back to the wall, when I CAN sleep. I EAT SERPENTS, seven times a week. There's not a major city in this galaxy where I can show my face, or spend my wealth. Right now, your offer looks very attractive to me... A meal, and a place to hide. Agreed?



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[Cayman's "Zymer" charges "Hammerhead"]
Cayman of the Lambda Zone: This is Cayman of the Lambda Zone, calling Sador of the Malmori. Turn around, you over-aged de-generate, and we'll bump heads!
Sador: ...Of what form are you, Cayman?
Cayman of the Lambda Zone: I am of the Lazuli.
Sador: I thought I had the honor of making that form extinct, long ago! I won't fail this time! HERE I COME, CAYMAN OF THE LAZULI!



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[in "Hammerhead's" "Sick Bay"]
Sador: Are you capable of speech?
Nestor 2: Yes, quite capable.
Sador: And do you have a high tolerance for pain?
Nestor 2: Almost none at all, I'm afraid.
Sador: How unfortunate for you. So... How many ships do the Akira have, and what are their capabilities?
Nestor 2: If I told you that, it would give you an unfair advantage.
Sador: This is Frojo, my Third Officer. Frojo is expert at inflicting pain... while keeping the victim alive.
Nestor 2: ...It's good to have skills.



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[after a dogfight against the Malmori]
Saint-Exmin: Shad, did you see me on the monitor? There was a fighter right on my tail... I pulled up... and smashed him into an asteroid!
Shad: [grimly] I'm glad this is so much fun for you. These aren't YOUR people we're fighting for.
Saint-Exmin: It's not that I don't empathize; That's the Valkyrie Creed: "Live fast, fight well and have a beautiful ending."
Shad: [looking her in the eyes] NO VIOLENT DEATH IS BEAUTIFUL!
Saint-Exmin: [smiling] You've never seen a Valkyrie go down...



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[as Kalo suddenly breaks off their pursuit of Nell and Shad]
Tembo: Why are we slowing down?
Kalo: Orders were to guard the planet.
Tembo: To hell with orders! I want that ship!
Kalo: Remember Bilko? He disobeyed orders, and now Lord Sador's wearing HIS FOOT!
Tembo: Right... Maybe we'd better go back.



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[after "Hammerhead" wings Gelt]
Shad: Gelt! Are you okay?
Gelt: [just prior to force-landing back on Akir] That remains to be seen, Shad. Have a nice fight!



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Yago: [carrying a bag of ashes] Our emissary has returned from Umateal. They have replied to our ultimatum.
Sador: ...And?
[Yago hands him the bag; he examines the contents]
Sador: ... What's this?
Yago: It WAS our emissary, sir. They have... That is their reply to our ultimatum.
[Sador throws the bag in a rage, just missing him]
Yago: ... Obviously, they are a proud form.
Sador: In an hour they'll be an EXTINCT one. There'll not be a trace of them left... Not even their dust.



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[Nestor explains why "he" would like to participate in the Malmor-Akir War]
Nestor 1: You see... There is only one Nestor, one consciousness. As you might imagine, this has proven very lonely and very dull. We must avoid becoming... we believe you have a phrase for it... becoming "bored to death."



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[Shad can't bring himself to shoot down Kalo and Tembo's Malmori warship]
Shad: Can we outrun them?
Nell: We sure as hell can't OUTFIGHT them, not with YOU in the driver's seat...!
[And after they've escaped]
Nell: ... Turning my backside to those Malmori S.O.B.s! I can't believe it! You got no BACKBONE, kid! When Zed was your age...
Shad: My job is ONLY to find mercenaries. And I'm NOT Zed.
Nell: I'll say; Not even a pale imitation.
Shad: [insulted] You know, I thought I did pretty well back there; YOU'RE still in one piece, aren't you?
Nell: Oh, sure; If they ever start giving out prizes for running away, YOU'LL be Champion of the Universe!



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

["Hammerhead" returns to Akir but cannot find Kalo and Tembo]
Sador: Could we POSSIBLY be out of range?
Yago: Not at all, Sir. Something must be wrong...
Sador: [disgusted] What's WRONG is that I have an army full of GENETIC MISTAKES! Why can't my minions be sophisticated or intelligent, like... well, like ME?
Yago: Well, you can't expect ALL of us to measure up to YOU, Sir.
Sador: Oh, don't flatter me!... Those two probably slammed their ship into an asteriod or something.
Yago: Or they MAY have been shot down.
Sador: Shot down? How? Akir has nothing to put in the air!
Yago: Perhaps somebody came to help...
Sador: Would YOU help AKIR against ME? Surely no one would do anything so stupid. Not even Kalo and Tembo!



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Shad: [after being beamed aboard Nestor's ship] Okay, what's the big idea?
[All 5 Nestors turn to face him]
Shad: Don't everybody talk at once!
[When none of the Nestors speak up, he draws his handgun]
Shad: Listen, if I don't get some answers FAST, I'm gonna have to use this thing!
[Nestor causes his own gun-hand to turn on him, aiming at his own head; he vainly attempts to wrench it away]
Shad: ... Let me rephrase that.
Nestor 1: [upon releasing Shad] You are not of a violent form. We sensed that you did not intend to shoot.
Shad: You read my mind?
Nestor 1: Among other things.



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Cayman of the Lambda Zone: [upon meeting Shad for the first time] I'm only in this battle for Sador. I want his head.
Shad: ...Well, you're welcome to it.



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[Tembo and Kalo are monitoring an Akira wedding below]
Tembo: Just look at her, Kalo!
Kalo: We were ordered to guard this planet, remember?
Tembo: Where's it gonna go? Come on, let's do it!
Kalo: That would make you happy, wouldn't it? What the hell, they're only Akira!
[They beam up the hapless bride; Later, when Shad arrives with the Mercenaries]
Kalo: ... Tembo! Come on up here!
Tembo: [laughing] I'm busy.
Kalo: FORGET ABOUT HER! We've got seven unidentified objects on the monitor!
Tembo: SEVEN OF THEM? What do you think we should do?
Kalo: I don't know... Run away?
Tembo: GOOD IDEA!
[then, as they're being pursued]
Tembo: Faster! It's gaining on us!
Kalo: It can't be! We're already at full thrust!
Tembo: Then turn around and face it, I'll try and shoot it down!
Kalo: That's crazy, we don't even know what it is!



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Akira Governor: We live by the Varda; the Varda is not to fight. The Akira haven't fought for centuries!
Shad: The Varda teach us that each form has its function.
Dr. Hephaestus: Forms must prey on other forms.
Shad: That's not what the Varda teach us. We prey on nobody.
Nell: The Varda say we can take life to save life.
Nell: If it can't hurt you, forget about it. That's what the Varda say.
Shad: [to St. Exmin] The Varda teach us that swift rain is little rain.
Lux: [to the Mercenaries] The Varda teach us to trust first and judge later.
Shad: The First Law of the Varda is to use greater strength/force against itself.
Shad: The Varda teach us that no life-force is ended until all the lives that it has touched have ended, until all the good that it has done is gone.



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Nanelia: ...It's a Malmori Sonic Tank. They're wearing sound vests in case they get in front of it. Even if we plug our ears, we can't get close enough to take it out.
Cowboy: [to the nearby Kelvin, who are trying to get his attention] Will you two radiators stand back? It's hard enough to think!
Nestor 1: It seems they're volunteering.
Cowboy: What can THEY do?
Nestor 1: For one thing, the Kelvin HAVE NO EARS.

Takes the Guardian of Forever and mixes it with Star Gate SG1 and
Irwin Allen’s Time Tunnel.



The Guardian of Forever is often under used concept. Star Trek only used it or once or twice-once in the Classic Star Trek series and once in the Animated series. and now in the so called unauthorized Star Trek New Voyages. If Trek wasn’t in love the basic format of exploring space and unknown civilization, a time traveling Star Trek would an interesting concept. I love the concept time has currents and eddies into the Time Vortex. Doctor Who uses this term and I believe mentioned time eddies or some such at some time in the shows long history on the BBC.
The Time Tunnel dragged on with totally boring storylines. Doug and Tony just became actually human beings-good actors, but they became lifeless expository characters, not human being traveling in time and space, but lifeless characters, whose dialogue was written to, drive the simple plotlines of the show. Doug Phillips and Tony Newman should have been less wooden characters and lifelike characters like you see in the other series mentioned here, which may explain one of the reasons the show, despite the concept of time travel, that has kept Doctor Who going 22 plus years.\

Star Gate SG1 is the only show; so far that explores both concepts effectively, as gateway into wormholes through hyperspace and sometimes time travel-though you can argue they travel in time every week when they use the Stargate from one planet to another. This is just the Star Ship Enterprise is a time machine, in it’s self always traveling forward and backward in time, when warps space each week, but we think of time travel as presented in shows the Time Tunnel or Doctor Who. The Tunnel of Project Tick Tock and The Doctor’s Tardis are thought as Time Machines as their first predecessor in H.G.Well’s novel is called The Time Machine. Quantum Leap was of course very similar in some ways to The Time Tunnel. In both series, a scientist attempts to prove the theories of time travel by launching himself off through an imperfected device after government funding is removed. Both of them are semi-monitored from their present time. But Quantum Leap was about character, while the Time Tunnels about keeping history as we know it, while keeping the dull Doug and Tony lost in time, in poorly written Fugitive premise. Everyone, but Doug and Tony, can travel to and from Project Tick Tock, but them-unless we can blame it all Merlin, who seem to total control secretly over hidden base. We begin wonder if the Time Tunnel just refuses to get them home or the operators of the Time Tunnel are just poorly trained and can’t aim the dam thing.



The “The Time Machine" by H.G. Wells all the way through, although already long familiar with the story from the Classics Illustrated version and from the George Pal movie. The book had a sort of dark romanticism all its own, None of the film adaptations I've seen has really captured the mood setting of the original by H. G. Wells, although the George Pal movie came the closest. and version with Guy Pierce works pretty well, but I don’t much the fact he destroys the Time Machine in the end. They could have along and allow us to think like Rod Taylor, the Time Traveler goes on to further Doctor Who like adventures with Weena at his side. And if you haven’t guessed it yet, Doctor Who is simply The Time Machine the series. It is no mistake Doctor Who’s true name is unknown like the Time Traveler-George is only Filby calls him, a nod to the author’s first name. And the Doctor meets up his Morlocks-the Dalek, phychotic blobby machine creatures simply replace savage, cannibalistic creatures of H.G.Well’s novel. From the book by H.G. Wells, a scientist and tinkered builds a time machine and uses it to explore the distant future where there are two races, a mild gentle race, and a cannibalistic one living underground. His machine is stolen by the underground race and he must risk being captured (and eaten) to return to his own time. Based on a story from the BBC TV serial "Doctor Who". Scientist Dr. Who accidentally activates his new invention, the Tardis, a time machine disguised as a police telephone box. Dr. Who, his two grand-daughters, and Barbara's boyfriend Ian are transported through time and space to the planet Skaro, where a peaceful race of Thals are under threat of nuclear attack from the planet's other inhabitants: the robotic mutant Daleks.Similar concept,just used differently.
Time Travel is a fascinating concept, but very often few people use effect. They draw back to tired clichés often over used by Hollywood writers and producers. Set history right and the space time continuum will shatter or be destroyed. History much be set upon it’s natural course, as we know it, not as our alternate selves might know it. That or it becomes total unbelievable nonsense like Sliders or dull ,boring adventures like in Time Tunnel or an often once and a while time travel gimmick like Star Treks Guardian of Forever or even Stargate gateway portal. Quantum was one of the few to use the concept weekly on a personal character story level. The rarely get the kind of space opera, as presented in Doctor Who and that gets not confusing as where, when and Doctor does what, but his stories can get sometime down silly in his 22 plus years on and off the air. Movie like Star Trek 4, the Voyage Home and Time After Time, where H.G.Wells chases Jack the Ripper into the 1980’s, often use the present or decade the movies filmed as a backdrop, to get traveler from other times here, than take to others as Doctor Who often does, and even the Doctor falls into the present Earth date and time trap. Hollyweird is often too pre occupied with the here and now, than later or other worlds, as like the people in the Matrix, there no time better than the one we live in.

I want to create a time travel show, that exists in a shared universe or shared multiverse want to project to have scope and size of Project Tick Tock, with scientist exploring the concept of time travel, with military backing those scientist with military force, like Stargate Command. I want to fantastic stories present in Star Trek and Doctor Who, with bickering family team of the Fantastic Four, trying to fight the forces of evil or conflicting crew of the Star Ship Enterprise, working together for a common goal. I want the alternate realities of Sliders, but with stupid worldline and I want the personal stories of Quantum Leap, with human character of Stargate, Star Trek and Star Wars, who be heroic but flawed as well. I also want the Godlike mysteriousness of the Guardian of Forever and not the mindless machine of the Time Tunnel.Like Challengers of the Unknown is a group of fictional characters in comic books published by DC Comics. Created or co-created by Jack Kirby (sources differ), this quartet of adventurers explored science fictional and apparent paranormal occurrences and faced fantastic menaces,the Project Time Stalkers stories had weird menaces, fistfights, wild vehicles and gadgets, spectacular terrain, daring escapes, and a sense of humor.

I may,via my Legion of Time Sorcerers,introduce the concept of a Doctor Who/Jedi Knight characters,that may intereact with various members of Project Time Stalkers. Project Time Stalkers have been portrayed as a somewhat dysfunctional yet loving family- they would squabble and hold grudges both deep and petty, and eschew anonymity or secret identities in favor of celebrity status.,while fighting the forces of evil and exploring strange ,new worlds and civilization,like the characters of Star Trek. A scientific genius –Richard Tony Vincent -a Reed Richards type leeds them,but often talks too much and annoys the others,especially his best friend and partner. His partner Doug Allen occasionally cigar-smoking –a Ben Grimm type is grumpy pilot and street wise brawler,but benevolent friend, who possesses superhuman strength and endurance,via his Omega Warrior training. While far from stupid,this Ben Grimm character-Doug Allen has a fairly animalistic form of intelligence which is almost exclusively militarily oriented, and prefers to skip over almost any scientific explanation of the team leader.The girl Christina Lambert-a Sue Storm/Richards type shy,but is the motherly heart of the group,but is also like Samantha Carter is smart as well beautiful.She is the quintessential geek: an expert and intuitively talented individual, whose mastery of advanced scientific disciplines is juxtaposed with her difficulties in leading a "normal" life. Her younger brother Marshall Johnathan Lambert-team security and member of the Terran Federation Rangers,attatched to the team,the hot headed and often bickers with the britush Ben Grimm type.Added is the mysteriuos fifth member-Doctor Nathaniel Wells-smart,synical ,who thinks the Reed Richards type dosen’t know what he is going and often dissagree his methads of Project Time Stalker Away Command.The sisth member is Sharon Wells- United World Space Force Intelligence agent and Doctor Wells red haide daughter and has a romantic feeling Marshall Johnathan Lambert.

The Stalkers venture to distant planets exploring the galaxy and searching for defenses from the Tauron Empire,who may or may have built the original alien underground complex,they base their Project and primary base of operation upon.Like Stargate,their maybe a network of other Temporal Stargates scattered all over time and space.Some of the members of the Legion of Time Sorcerers are the series villians and often create havok for the team,as they attempt travel around the time vortex and other times and other alternate realities.

[Edit] The series
[edit] Summary
Project Tic-Toc is a top secret U.S. government effort to build an experimental time machine known as "the Time Tunnel." When the costs of the project approach those of the entire U.S. space program, a United States Senator Leroy Clark (Gary Merrill) launches an investigation of the project. The Senator feels that the tunnel has cost too much money for too little reward. At his request the Senator is allowed to visit the project base and be given a tour. Once he reaches the central control room the Senator explains his complaints to the project heads. The Senator then says that he wishes to close down the project as a waste of time and money that has not worked.
Key Time Tunnel scientist, young physicist, Dr. Tony Newman (James Darren) turns the machine on and sends himself back in time in an attempt to prove that the Time Tunnel project funds were not wasted. In so doing, Newman becomes "lost in time." The Time Tunnel top personnel can see through the Tunnel that Tony Newman is aboard the soon to sink Titanic. They can also see that he cannot escape before the sinking, and they cannot retrieve him.
In an attempt to rescue his younger friend, another key Tic-Toc scientist Dr. Doug Phillips (Robert Colbert) enters the Time Tunnel as well. However, the system was still being developed and tunnel operations were never able to bring them home. As the series progresses, the two time travelers are swung from one period in history to another, allowing episodes to be set in the past and future. Each episode begins with the following narration:
"Two American scientists are lost in the swirling maze of past and future ages, during the first experiments on America's greatest and most secret project, the Time Tunnel. Tony Newman and Doug Phillips now tumble helplessly toward a new fantastic adventure, somewhere along the infinite corridors of time."
By luck (or lack thereof) the travelers, Tony and Doug, frequently found themselves thrown onto the precipice of major historical events: on board the Titanic before it hits the iceberg, in Pearl Harbor before the Japanese attack, on Krakatoa before it erupts, and so forth. They would try to warn people about the event, or try to prevent it from happening, while the Time Tunnel crew (led by two scientists and a military general), who once gaining a "fix" can view through the Tunnel the action taking place in the different time, would try to rescue the travelers before the historical calamity befell them too. The final episode provides no resolution, as the series was initially scheduled to continue into a second season.
The series used a precursor to the Novikov self-consistency principle as its time travel model. Recorded history could not be altered because all attempts to do so were destined to fail. In other words: They will not change history because they haven't. However sometimes Doug and Tony’s actions were essential to cause history to unfold as recorded. The lives of individual people could be influenced by the actions of the travelers or the Time Tunnel scientists.


Tony Newman and Doug Philips
The base for Project Tic-Toc was huge and located underground in the Arizona desert, with no visible entry. The only way in was a very big secret panel that when it opened a car could quickly go through the entrance. Once the panel closed all any one could see was ordinary desert. Tic-Toc base was a futuristic series of complexes 800 floors deep and employing over 36,000 people ("12 thousand people in each of those complexes"). It was under the command of General Heywood Kirk (Whit Bissell). The center of the base was The Time Tunnel control room where the tunnel was located. In charge of operating the Tunnel were Dr. Ann McGregor (Lee Meriwether) and Dr. Raymond Swain (John Zaremba). The date at which it was operating was stated as 1968, which would have been two years into the future for the initial TV audience.[1]

TV.com summary

Sliders is an American science fiction television series that ran for five seasons from 1995 to 2000. The series focuses on a group of travellers who "slide" between parallel worlds by use of a wormhole referred to as an "Einstein-Rosen-Podolsky bridge."
The first three seasons of Sliders were shown by the FOX Network. It was originally cancelled after the first season, which was broadcast from March 22, 1995 to May 17, 1995, but was brought back for a second season after much fan protest, from March 1, 1996 to July 12, 1996. A third season was broadcast from September 20, 1996 to May 16, 1997. The Sci Fi Channel produced the fourth season (June 8, 1998—April 23, 1999) and fifth season (from June 11, 1999—February 4, 2000), but announced in July 1999 that Sliders had been cancelled, and that there would not be a sixth season. The last new episode first aired on December 29, 1999 in the United Kingdom and finally aired on the Sci-Fi Channel on February 4, 2000.

Parallel universe or alternative reality is a self-contained separate reality coexisting with our own. A specific group of parallel universes is called a multiverse, although this term can also be used to describe the possible parallel universes that comprise physical reality. While the terms "parallel universe" and "alternative reality" are generally synonymous and can be used interchangeably in most cases, there is sometimes an additional connotation implied with the term "alternative reality" that implies that the reality is a variant of our own. The term "parallel universe" is more general, without any connotations implying a relationship (or lack thereof) with our own universe.
Editors Notes;
Sliders chronicle the adventures of four "travellers" moving between parallel realities searching for the world they left. Sliders first appeared in the spring of 1995 on the FOX television network in the United States and soon was being shown all over the globe. The show recently ended it's third season, the first as a full season series and was summarily cancelled by FOX. Universal, the production company that films the series shopped the show to the SCI-FI Channel which picked up the series for 22 new episodes, in addition to the 48 already created, and started showing selected repeats in March 1998 and the new episodes bowed in June 1998. Four people just found a gateway to another dimension, but they forgot one problem... how to get back! Somehow Quinn Mallory we assume, did in the initial episode, unless the Professor and the rest of the cast comes another alternate universe and Quinn is the only from his original reality. This Fugitive plotline never worked for me and the whole, he makes in his basement –discover Slide technology by accident was always weak. If Quinn Mallory, Prof. Maximilian Arturo, Wade Welles, Rembrandt 'Crying Man' Brown and Capt. Maggie Beckett were members of something Time Tunnels Project Tick Tock or Stargate SG1,I might believe it more, but the writers and producers went the inventor in his secret lad and that never worked for me anyway right the start.
Sometimes Slider worked but often it didn’t.The series creators and writers should read the likes of Harry Turtledove or some such were the concept of Parallel universe or alternative reality is used more effectively,than what they ended up with. Alternate history or alternative history[1] is a subgenre of speculative fiction (or some would say science fiction) and historical fiction that is set in a world in which history has diverged from history as it is generally known.Slider simply came Alternate worlds or histories than simply were inpossible or improbable to believe. Common themes during this season include the exploration of political issues, and the appearances of recurring characters' alternate selves, showing how their situations had changed in various realities.Plots got more silly-silly as in Lost In Space silly and barrowed too from old Hollywood horror movie-such as Island of Doctor Monro

The Enterprise crew (TOS) in front of the Guardian of Forever.
The Guardian of Forever is a time portal portrayed in the fictional universe of Star Trek. The first appearance of the Guardian was in the Star Trek: The Original Series episode "The City on the Edge of Forever" (1967). In that episode, the voice of the Guardian was provided by Bartell LaRue. The Guardian's only other on-screen appearance was in the animated episode "Yesteryear" (1973), in which the Guardian's voice was provided by James Doohan (best known as Scotty). The Guardian has proven popular in both fan fiction and the "official" Star Trek novels published by Pocket Books. However, none of these writings, nor the animated series, are considered canon.
In the Star Trek universe, analysis of the ruins on the Guardian's home world suggests it may be billions of years old but no one knows who built the Guardian. The Guardian is able to speak to anyone who asks it a question, though the meaning of its responses is not always clear. For instance, when asked if it was machine or being, it responded, "Both, ... and neither." When Spock says that there is no reason to speak in riddles, the Guardian says that it answers in the way that is best for "your limited understanding." The Guardian can detect changes in the timeline, but typically provides its users little help in figuring out how to change it back. And being in the vicinity of the Guardian when such changes occur isolates those there from the effects of the change in the timeline.

The Guardian of Forever in 2267
"Are you machine, or being?"
"I am both... and neither. I am my own beginning, my own ending."
- Kirk questioning the Guardian (TOS: "The City on the Edge of Forever")

The Guardian of Forever is a construct of an unknown, ancient alien race, that apparently functions as a time portal, or gateway to other times and dimensions, located on an ancient planet where the focus of all timelines in the galaxy converge. It is apparently sentient, responding to external stimulus such as questions and actions, and can even somehow control the flow of time. It generates immense ripples in time that manifest themselves as spatial disturbances in the region around the planet where it is located.
The Guardian is located among the ruins of a large, forgotten city that stretched beyond the horizon in all directions around it. Based on initial observations, the ruins appeared to be at least one million years old.
It should be noted that the Guardian claims to be on the order of at least five billion years old.
Capable of speaking to those around it, the Guardian explained that it is "its own beginning and its own ending," and that, "since before your sun (Sol) burned hot in space, [it had] awaited a question." Apparently an inert formation of quasi-metallic substance, the Guardian creates portals to other times.
The Guardian was discovered by the crew of the USS Enterprise in 2267. The Guardian's power was demonstrated when ship's doctor Leonard McCoy, suffering from the hallucinations induced by a cordrazine overdose, passed through the portal and into the past, where he inadvertently altered history. Captain James T. Kirk and his first officer, Spock, followed McCoy through the Guardian, and were ultimately successful in restoring (or preserving) the timeline. (TOS: "The City on the Edge of Forever")


The Guardian in 2269
In 2269, a team of historians, accompanied by Captain Kirk and Spock, used the Guardian to investigate Federation history. Their investigation included firsthand accounts of the formation of the Orion civilization and the monitoring of Vulcan history of the 2230s and 2240s. While Kirk and Spock were visiting Orion, their support team was monitoring Vulcan's past, which, in doing so, inadvertently removed Spock from the proper timeline. Spock, however, was protected from the change while he was in Orion's past, and the change to the timeline went unnoticed until he and Kirk returned through the Guardian. Once the cause was determined, Spock was able to use the Guardian to return to his own childhood on Vulcan, and prevent his death during the kahs-wan ritual. (TAS: "Yesteryear")

Get To Know The Guardian
by Anthony P , filed under Star Trek KvP Contest, Guardian
The Guardian of Forever was first seen in the Star Trek (TOS) episode “City on the Edge of Forever.” The first season episode was written by the famous sci-fi writer Harlan Ellison. Even though it is considered by many to be one of the best episodes (if not the best) of the entire franchise, it actually sparked a famous feud between Ellison and Gene Roddenberry over some of Rodenberry’s edits (more on that in a future blog post). The Guardian is a ‘portal through time and dimension’ that can take you anywhere you want to go. It was discovered by Kirk and the crew of the Enterprise on a desolate planet surrounded by time and space distortions. The planet itself has no name but is referred to as ‘The Guardian Planet’ (it has also been called the ‘Time Vortex Planet’ and ‘Forever Planet’). It’s origins and how it functions are unknown but its design are far beyond the capabilities and understanding of the Federation. The Guardian can speak (although cryptically) and told Mr. Spock that “your science knowledge is obviously primitive”…which of course got a patented eyebrow raise from the Vulcan science officer. On the question of if it is a machine or being it said “I am both; and neither. I am my own beginning, my own ending.” It essentially has two modes: it shows images from any time or place, and it allows you to travel to those different times and places.

The Time Machine
[1960, Movie]



This smashing science-fiction adaptation of H.G. Wells's famous novel has more creativity in every frame than most latter-day rip-offs have in their entirety. Rod Taylor plays George, an inventor who confounds his contemporaries in Victorian England by unveiling his new time machine. His friends think he's lost his mind, but after they leave, George takes off in his machine, whizzing through time but not through space. Therefore, all of his adventures take place in the same general area of England but at various points in history. He makes brief stops at both World Wars, the atomic confrontations of the future (1966 according to this film), and even as far ahead as the year 802,701. In this futuristic era, he finds humanity divided into two groups--the Eloi, normal-looking humans who live above ground, and the Morlocks, horrifying mutants who live beneath the ground. The Eloi are a vapid, incredibly passive lot, and George is stunned to learn that they are nothing more than cattle for the cannibalistic Morlocks. He falls in love with Weena (Yvette Mimieux), one of the Eloi, and sets out to help her people overcome their oppressors. Producer-director George Pal had already made quite a name for himself with his "Puppetoon" stop-motion animation techniques, and here he again delivers some amazing special effects.

Doctor Who***

Doctor Who is a long-running, award-winning British science fiction television programme produced by the BBC. The programme depicts the adventures of a mysterious time-traveller known as "the Doctor" who travels in his space- and time-ship, the TARDIS, which appears from the exterior to be a blue police phone box. With his companions, he explores time and space, solving problems and righting wrongs.

The programme is listed in Guinness World Records as the longest-running science fiction television show in the world[1] and is also a significant part of British popular culture.[2][3][4] It has been recognised for its imaginative stories, creative low-budget special effects during its original run, and pioneering use of electronic music (originally produced by the BBC Radiophonic Workshop). In Britain and elsewhere, the show has become a cult television favourite and has influenced generations of British television professionals, many of whom grew up watching the series. It has received recognition from critics and the public as one of the finest British television programmes, including the BAFTA Award for Best Drama Series in 2006.
THE TIME MACHINE FACTS

This is a remake of the 1960 film based upon the novel by H.G. Wells, which is about a man in the 1890s who builds a time machine that sends him farther and farther into the future. Eventually he finds himself 800,000 years away, and two races inhabit the Earth: the Eloi, who are calm, fun-loving creatures, and the Morlocks, hideous underground monsters who come out at night to kidnap the Eloi.
The Fantastic Four (also known as Fantastic 4) is a fictional superhero team appearing in comic books published by Marvel Comics. The group debuted in The Fantastic Four #1 (Nov. 1961), which helped to usher in a new naturalism in the medium. They were the first superhero team created by writer/editor Stan Lee and artist/co-plotter Jack Kirby.

There are four core individuals traditionally associated with the Fantastic Four, who gained superpowers after exposure to cosmic rays during a scientific mission to outer space. Mr. Fantastic (Reed Richards) is a scientific genius and the leader of the group who can stretch his body into incredible lengths and shapes. The Invisible Woman (Susan "Sue" Storm) is Reed's wife; she can render herself invisible and project powerful force fields. The Human Torch (Johnny Storm) is Sue's younger brother, who can generate flames, surround himself with them and fly. The final member is the monster-like Thing (Ben Grimm), their grumpy but benevolent friend, who possesses superhuman strength and endurance. Since the original four's 1961 introduction, the Fantastic Four have been portrayed as a somewhat dysfunctional yet loving family. Breaking convention with other comic-book archetypes of the time, they would squabble and hold grudges both deep and petty, and eschew anonymity or secret identities in favor of celebrity status.
The Fantastic Four have been adapted into other media, including four animated television series, an aborted 1990s low-budget film, the major motion picture Fantastic Four (2005), and its sequel, Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer (2007).

The History of Hypertime

by Cecil Adkins

Hypertime was supposed to change the world.

Well, the world of the DC Universe, anyway. It was envisioned as a grand, never-before-attempted experiment to unite all of DC Comics's myriad worlds, characters, and stories, under one gigantic, cosmic umbrella. Every story that had ever been published was true. Every character that had ever appeared was still out there somewhere. Every world that had been wiped out during Crisis on Infinite Earths, or at least a close facsimile, was still around.

Fan reaction was varied, and much of it, if you believe the countless posts from the Usenet newsgroups and other message boards at the time, was incredibly negative. "This is the end of comics as we know it," one post actually proclaimed. "Hypertime is just an excuse for lazy editing and sloppy storytelling," many more said. "This is no different from the pre-Crisis Multiverse," some people moronically said.

Well, it turned out that none of the above came true. Comics are still around, and even if it looks like the industry is in a slump (which it has been for a while), Hypertime has nothing to do with it. The concept also hasn't been used to justify bad editing or storytelling - at least, not by anyone actually in the industry. And Hypertime is obviously very different from the mere Multiverse, as I've shown elsewhere.

But, just because the bad predictions were shown to be just a bunch of disgruntled fans bellyaching over nothing, that doesn't mean that Hypertime has lived up to the good expectations that a few of us had, either. Other than the Superboy: Hypertension story, there hasn't been a single extended storyline featuring Hypertime. Mark Waid's final Flash story used Hypertime, but you didn't really know it until the very last installment. And other than that, all you have is a couple of lines in scattered issues of the soon-to-be cancelled Hourman series.

Perhaps worst of all, there was supposed to have been a huge revelation this year concerning Hypertime - one which would make the "merging timelines" aspect of the concept seem a minor part of the whole thing. Sadly, that isn't going to happen from the looks of things.

The two creators who are most closely identified with Hypertime - Mark Waid, who introduced the concept in 1998's Kingdom series, and Grant Morrison, who according to some, got the ball rolling in the first place - have pretty much left DC behind. Waid's heading off to bask in the Florida sun with CrossGen Comics, and Morrison's already bolted for a rejuvinated Marvel.

I was really looking forward to a Morrison Hypertime story, since Morrison's description of the concept was so far out.

So, where does Hypertime go from here? With its chief architects fleeing DC's ranks, with Hourman - a series purportedly about the "master of Hypertime" - ending, and with fan discussion dying down, does this mean it's the end of the road for Hypertime?

Maybe, but I doubt it. The concept was always meant to be in the background - if it wasn't, then all of those bad predictions would have come true. I see Hypertime popping up every so often, until a talented, trusted writer comes up with a big Hypertime story that'll blow everyone away.

Any takers?

Project Time Stalkers,Inc

''Into the Time Vortex,''



Two American scientists are lost in the swirling maze of past and future ages, during the first experiments on America’s greatest and most secret project: ‘The Time Tunnel.’ Tony Vincent and Doug Allen now tumble helplessly toward a new, fantastic adventure, somewhere along the infinite corridors of time.”



Project Time Stalkers,Inc,is a top secret U.S. government effort to build an experimental time machine known as "the Time Tunnel." .The first was the pilot about a government project-based on alien equipment found within a vast, hidden bunker like complex- Shadow Complex-a New Genesis Bunker, captured by the Tauron’s as a temporal base of operations and abandoned ages ago by them, for unknown reasons. Presumedly left because a shift in the Atlantean Temporal Cold War went toward the Atlanteans and against the Taurons, who are apart of the other side. This Temporal Wormhole generator-is at the heart of the mysterious Shadow Complex. which is a device that can send people into the future or past. The members of Project Time Stalkers,Inc, Dr. Tony Vincent ,Dr. Doug Allen, Christine Lambert and her younger brother Johnathan Lambert plan to send a Time Pod, down into a Tauron Temporal Well,-an alien time machine-related to the Atlanteans, who travel within the infinite realm of time and space, to see if the Time Vortex can explored safely again. When the costs of the project approach those of the entire U.S. space program, a United States Senator launches an investigation of the project. The Senator feels that the tunnel has cost too much money for too little reward. At his request, the Senator is allowed to visit the project base and be given a tour. Once he reaches the central control room, the Senator explains his complaints to the project heads. The Senator then says that he wishes to close down the project as a waste of time and money that has not worked.

Key Time Tunnel scientists, young physicist Dr. Tony Vincent and scientist /temporal engineer Dr. Doug Allen manage to convince several other members of the Project; Time Stalkers to send the Time pod on a short execution into the vortex. Christine Lambert and her younger brother Johnathan Lambert turns the machine on and begins to enter drop sends the time pod back in time in an attempt to prove that the Time Tunnel project funds were not wasted. In so doing, Vincent and Allen becomes "lost in time." as the Time Vortex accidentally grabs onto the small capsule.The thick Bucky Cable that holds the pod in space,from a huge crane over head breaks. whipping it through the temporal wormhole. The Time Tunnel top personnel can see through the Tunnel that Tony Vincent and Douglas Allen are hurled further into the vortex, spinning helplessly toward a new destination, in time and space... They can also see that the two Temporal Test pilots cannot escape before the time vortex sends toward their ultimate destination, and they cannot retrieve him.
