The two that were released under that banner were "Alien Attack" and "Journey Through The Black Sun" ( I still have my copies ). <br /><br />When "Space:1999" was released on laserdisc by J2, the two parts of "The Bringers Of Wonder" could not be included because the rights to "Destination Moonbase Alpha" were still owned by CBS/FOX.<br /><br />To my knowledge,"Cosmic Princess" was never released on home video in the U.S. Of the two features assembled by ITC New York, "Princess" is the better of the two. Despite the editing ( which is fairly well done ), and the redubbing of the alien pilot's voice ( which is just plain awful ) it 'kind of' holds together better than "Journey". <br /><br />Also, although I'm against dropping in music that wasn't written for the shows ( which is just plain random and awful in Journey" ), I do find it interesting to hear Barry Gray's cues for year one with the footage from the year two episodes. In my opinion, they actually work fairly well and add a touch of continuity between the two series ( your mileage may vary ).Dep1701https://www.blogger.com/profile/01728478810352057981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3893206653438189717.post-18492577653424548152012-03-30T14:51:05.648-04:002012-03-30T14:51:05.648-04:00Space 1999 was broadcast in South Africa in the Af...Space 1999 was broadcast in South Africa in the Afrikaans language as "Alpha 1999" - This was the defining Space Fi movie for me - from their mini video communicators to their evolved hand-gun style lasers and comms pillars - a surreal and realistic if not somewhat foreboding dark atmosphere seems to perfectly describe lunar Life - Ranks ahead of Startrek Season 1 followed by Battlestar Galactica (with Lorne Greene)for me - NOTHING compares!Sherifnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3893206653438189717.post-21762917928306438142010-09-24T18:20:10.026-04:002010-09-24T18:20:10.026-04:00Thought you might find this interesting.
There is ...Thought you might find this interesting.<br />There is a Space: 1999 comic series in the works right now called Space: 1999 Aftershock." It tells a story of what takes place on Earth when the moon is blown out of orbit. One of the artists is posting works in progress on deviantart.com and it's looking cool so far. <br /><br />http://davidhueso.deviantart.com/gallery/#/d2us3f7Jef Leppardnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3893206653438189717.post-10200656212029799992010-09-14T17:44:59.057-04:002010-09-14T17:44:59.057-04:00The poster for "Destination: Moonbase Alpha&q...The poster for "Destination: Moonbase Alpha" was created by Tom Chantrell who also did a star wars poster in 1977.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3893206653438189717.post-22847210727560239502010-09-13T18:29:26.682-04:002010-09-13T18:29:26.682-04:00Have you seen these...

Why didn't your Maine tv station carry it? You must have been very disappointed as a boy in 1976. I can see why you jumped at the VHS chance to see these derived movies in '80s.<br />SGAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3893206653438189717.post-30623719766757179592010-09-10T17:26:51.755-04:002010-09-10T17:26:51.755-04:00there is also a italian movie, released in 1975 wi...there is also a italian movie, released in 1975 with a new score by Ennio Morricone. <br />I mentioned it a few years ago on my blog: http://forgottensilver.wordpress.com/2007/01/18/le-theme-de-spazio-1999-par-ennio-morricone/Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
