Yep, I'm curious to know what the community thinks about this sci-fi gem. When it was released I was active in several online Wing Commander clubs/chat games on AOL and I remember hearing all of the complaints from devoted Wing Commander fans. We were all really excited about it and then... plop. Then when I actually saw it for myself, after all the negative hype, I didn't really think it was that bad. In fact I even liked it.
Now granted, as a film buff, I don't think it's a well made movie. But as a long time Wingnut, I like it all the same. I like the effects and I like the dogfights. Characters and script... well, not so much. In fact I really wish Roberts had gone a different route story-wise than what he did. But he was the chief I suppose.
So having gone back in time and looked at the CIC archives from March '99, I'm curious how the community feels about it seven years later. What do you all think about our little franchise movie?
