    B5LR: Disappointment

    Well this is a few years after B5 remember. It's possible that jump engines were minaturized even further and that the Liandra was equipped with one of them. Same goes for weapons. There are a few ways JMS can explain these things, hopefully he'll get the chance. ------------------ Alec...

    Here's a thought...

    Re: Here\'s a thought... Personally I don't think the place the Hand were sent is another dimension. I tend to think of it more like a prison. It might be something that was constructed to hold them. In any case, we really don't know at this point. ------------------ Alec McClymont 3D Artist -...

    Here's a thought...

    Re: Here\'s a thought... I think the whole point of the "stronger more powerful alien race" is that no one has absolute power. There is no "god" race. Some are stronger than others, but none are so strong as to be untouchable. ------------------ Alec McClymont 3D Artist - GVFX "Something is...

    B5LR: Disappointment

    I think it could also handle a single Minbari Flyer. Either way, that's a very large docking bay. Considering it's placement, and the size of that area on the outside of the ship, I'd say the White Stars are pretty big. Of course the bridge window seems to contradict this. Since using the same...

    B5LR: Disappointment

    The size of the White Stars is also something of a subjective number. I don't think there's any real data about it, since ship sizes will often be changed to suit VFX shots. I imagine the developers of the B5 game had a set, JMS approved number to go on, but I'm not sure. I will agree, the...

    B5LR: Disappointment

    Yes, but it was Delenn who said the White Star was the smallest Minbari ship to ever be able to jump on it's own. She could have been hiding things from Sheridan at that point I suppose, or perhaps she didn't know herself (which would be hard to believe, considering she's Grey Counsil)...

    B5LR: Disappointment

    The crew doesn't get jostled around during the take-off sequence because they're inside the ship, which creates it's own gravity field for propulsion purposes (as all Minbari ships do). This field would certainly negate (for the crew) any small amount of movement the ship happens to be making...

    Jumpgates ARE coloured!!

    Yes it was quite turbulent, but also keep in mind that the ships were probably moving at flank speed in those shots. It might look different if we had seen a shot with a stationary ship. In the original B5, there was never this distinction, so hyperspace felt more like a boiling red wall that...

    Liandra size(spoilers)

    I thought it was Delenn who said the Whitestar was the smallest jump-capable ship the Minbari had ever made? She could have been hiding things from him of course, but I thought she made the comment. I could be wrong however, as it's been a long time since I've seen that episode. Oh, I can't...

    Jumpgates ARE coloured!!

    Well I've already seen the images, so I know what they are. Some people may not be farmiliar with "the deal" however. It is much better when they aren't embedded though. Nice to see a farmiliar face once and a while *waves back at Arrghman* ------------------ Alec McClymont 3D Artist - GVFX...

    Jumpgates ARE coloured!!

    Yes, they are coloured. I can't see the images however, stupid Tripod. Does anyone else have them posted somewhere? ------------------ Alec McClymont 3D Artist - GVFX "Something is only impossible until it's not."

    Worries; young actors, no ads...

    I wonder if the specialty channels in the States advertise themselves on each other, like the channels here in Canada do? For example, I could be watching the SPACE channel, and see an add for a show on Discovery, or Bravo, and visa versa. Can any Americans let us know if this is the case...

    Visual effects going "amazingly well"

    Re: Visual effects going \"amazingly well\" I'd rather not comment on that since I'm not the one who's responsible for the style of the show. But it looks wonderful, everyone will be very pleased! ------------------ Alec McClymont, 3D Artist 3D Artist - GVFX We live for the one. We die for...
