What episodes feature the book of G\'Quan? Where we get a really GOOD look at it? I recall the ep when G'Kar gives the book to Garibaldi, and later another where Garibaldi figures out by reading it that telepaths can be used as a weapon against the Shadows- but I don't recall the names of the...

That's the magic of CGI, it allows you the freedom to do so many realistic effects quickly and relatively cheaply, rather than just do a single matte painting and use it week after week as "different" locations and hope no one will notice. It's all the little "atmospheric" details (like the...

This isn't Crusade, but where are all the other short-run SF series I used to love to watch on SFC? Galactica? Buck Rogers? Hell, even long run series. I would love to see Doctor Who again, if they ran that 5 days a week I bet it would take a couple years to get through them all. The...

Ebay. I got mine there last year, actually from a guy in Germany. He used to have a whole bunch of them listed. Quite reasonable, I used Buy It Now and with shipping I think it came to around 20 dollars. EDIT- I just looked, Here is one: Ebay B5 Official Guide CDROM I don't think you're...

Re: Babylon 5\'s Rare Cookbook With a BIN of 100 dollars?! WOW! Is this book that rare?

Good points re: the acting stuff. I guess it's easy to take for granted. Though I think the "meaner" Kosh II is partially conveyed through the design of the encounter suit itself. Kosh I's is rounded, with smooth curves. Kosh II's has hard edges and it even looks like it has horns with...

Excellent! Though I heard Sci-Fi passed on a new B5 series in favor of a remake of "Jason of Star Command". Kidding, kidding.... But would you be surprised? Honestly, I believe that a new B5 series could be Sci-Fi's best move. They only have ONE night of original programming (Friday)...

Hmm. Did not know that re: the Kosh actors. Thanks! I just figured it could be anyone because of the encounter suit.

Well Kosh could be played by ANYONE really. Probably some stagehand they threw the suit on. They just added in the voice in post-production. And he really doesn't say a whole lot.

Are you thinking of the young shuttle pilot guy from "War Zone" (I think)? It's not the same actor. The actor that played Keffer also played "Seether" in the Wing Commander 4 computer game, that's the only other place I remember seeing him.

Thanks. Glad to see it wasn't something bad.

I've been trying to get there the last couple days but I get a 404 error. Did they move?

I didn't say 'inconvienient'. I said "immoral". Elizar's crusade (pun not intended) cannot be likened at ALL to Sheridan's. Sheridan- Fought to free Earth from a tyrannical, oppressive government, not to increase Babylon 5's influence or his own status. Elizar- Fought to lead the...

It could be argued that Hitler didn't want power for HIMSELF, that he did it for Germany. But that probably ISN'T true. Elizar wanted a great future for the Mages, yes, but he went about it in a wrong, immoral way. He's just like all of these other historical nutjobs mentioned, "I'm going to...

Ooooh-kay... Evil murderer. Visionary or not, still an evil murderer. Tilar and Razeel were both off the deep end bananas.
