It's been a while... I thought I would bring this up again. Different versions of what did/did not happen.
I was alive at the time, and my memory may be suspect, but I recall seeing the BG theatrical release (as well as the Buck Rogers theatrical release) in theaters here in the U.S. I believe that he WAS executed in the theatrical release. But they retconned the event for the TV series, to keep Baltar as the antagonist.

..and that James Cameron worked on the special effects for it...Sorry, that doesn't sound credible.
Next you'll tell me John-Boy Walton saved the universe in a movie !
..and was a replacement for Burt Reynolds, after he left due to ilness.or...
or that Sean Connery wore a Speedo
The Theatrical release did have him executed
Did your theatre have the surroundsound for the Movie
Mine did, Universal dragging out that system out that was first used for “Earthquake”
I've seen Battlestar Galactica more times than I can count and I didn't realize we actually get a glimpse of the face of the Imperious Leader.
Well... we never did. For broadcast TV, the I.L was always shot in shadow, or from behind. The clip above was (apparently) never used.
And his appearance was changed for the Battle of Galactica attraction at Universal Studios Hollywood.
I own the theatrical release on DVD. Baltar dies.
I also own the series on DVD. Baltar lives.
There you go.
He was seeing a vision of his own death. Yeah, that's the ticket!Does Zac still blow up before his ship on both versions?
