I assume the bar scene. Following Marcus's dramatic entrance and the punches that ensued, one of the bar's denizens taps the alarms. Listen to G'Kar as the claxons go off. He says something . . . indecipherable followed by, "Come on" to Marcus. The pronounciation on that line before "Come on"...

G'Kar gave Garibaldi his copy of the Book of G'Quan. That says it all. But what was Marcus doing there? Did Marcus and G'Kar even cross paths other than "A Late Delivary from Avalon?" As much as I enjoyed their banter, Marcus had no strong reason to be with G'Kar--this point became more awkward...

Re: EpDis: Z\'ha\'dum Any time you attempt to predict the future -- as Sheridan did in his message to Delenn -- the final assumption made leaves itself open to criticism. I love the continuity, but this was an extreme case of it. There have been thousands of works from Greek tragedies to corny...

Re: EpDis: Z\'ha\'dum Arguably the best script in the entire 5-year run. Every main character featured in this episode leaves with at least one quotable comment. Furthermore, the juxtaposition of Sheridan on Z'Ha'Dum, Sheridan's message to Delenn, and the Shadows hovering over Babylon 5 all...

Devil in the White City has an alluring title. I will give it that. I am trying to get through For Whom the Bell Tolls, but I know I never will. College is a time menace! Just finished The Mysteries of Pittsburgh, Catcher in the Rye (2nd time), and The Great Gatsby (2nd time).

I think G'Kar was much better off going solo, but had Na'Toth stayed. . . I think she would have been a strong reminder of his past regrets. His warmongering, his scheming, his "reputed fascination with Earth women" -- all of it. I do not think she would have bought into the idea of G'Kar...

Common sense - the downfall of every bad story. Like I said, the Vir/Londo stuff was the redeeming factor of this episode. It was always great when Vir was given a purpose instead of his early days of mindlessly following Londo's bidding.

It does make perfect sense. I never said it was implausible, or shocking, or too difficult to believe that Franklin got hooked on drugs, but I did say it could have been handled better. This is fiction; think of the possibilities. Also, I never implied that Franklin came to rely on them for...

The major problem with the probe was the manner in which it was finished. Sheridan -- on a hunch -- decides in a last-second decision not to send the answers. Okay, I would believe Garibaldi to do something like that on such an uncertain, primal feeling, but Sheridan? Captain Sheridan is...

I always thought the head-shaved, sword expert in that posse of guys trying to steal the cosmic key was cool. I liked him quite a bit, really. He had to be the coolest guy in that movie.

Good dialogue, plenty of action, comedy, monks . . . this episode seems to be a little underrated. I like the premise quite a bit. Especially in the wake of the Oklahoma City bombing.

A all the way. The Narn-Centauri plot is so striking that even the plot regarding the great machine on Epsilon III seems unimportant. The shouting match where Londo demands that G'Kar stand down from the advisory council is pure gold, especially with G'Kar's unforgettable rebuttal. This is...

Re: Guess you\'ve had the literature influences thr I suppose you could argue that Le Morte d'Arthur by Sir Thomas Malory is a lit. influence for the episode "A Late Delivery from Avalon." That idea is debatable, at best, however. Other than episode titles,("The War Prayer," "The Wheel of...

Still, I maintain that the use of Kosh's words -- "If you go to Z'Ha'Dum . . . -- is the key. In all of Sheridan's impetuousness, I believe that Kosh and Sheridan both knew that he was going to travel to Z'Ha'Dum anyway. Kosh said it well by characterizing Sheridan as 'disobedient' in...

Lorien had tentacles? Whoa. Never knew that. "The man in the middle is SEARCHING for you." I believe is what the dream states. Okay, whoa. Kosh most definitely does not tell Sheridan to avoid going to Z'Ha'Dum. Kosh simply states, "If you go to Z'Ha'Dum, you will die." This line is simply a...
