    Does Amazon have the latest remaster?

    Maybe it's the DVD versions that I'm thinking of as a "Remaster" then. Thanks.

    A hidden hand in the Earth-Minbari War?

    No we don't, and I WILL ABSOLUTELY DIE ON THIS HILL!

    Does Amazon have the latest remaster?

    I've been out of touch for a bit but read that there was *another* remaster within the past year or two. Am I misinformed and it's just the 'old' remaster re-released? Or is there a better remaster? Does Amazon have whatever's the latest? If not, where does? Edit: Or, can anybody name...

    1x20 Babylon Squared "That just can't be!" Hey, maybe they should train their cannon fodder to scream out exactly what is about to kill them. It would give the next cannon fodder a better chance. I'm no militician though, so what do i know? I am a scientician though, so i know that the...

    ...That sounds darker if you focus on the not 18+ part instead of the credit card part. I shouldn't adlib. :(

    1x19 A voice in the Wilderness - Part 2 https://snipboard.io/iwMznW.jpg https://snipboard.io/jXBi68.jpg Fairly standard, new tech = Flex your keegal muscles to express dominance over it plotline. Sinclair thinks we can hug this one out instead. Garibaldi's assaulting people again. In...

    1x17 "She's coming in with her gunports open!" Alright, I haven't seen the show in a bit, but wouldn't this be "Dealing With Minbari 101"? If you get excited about their gunports being open, they wipe your species off the face of the universe. Seriously, read the memo new guy. This...

    1x16 Eyes Hey, M Night Shaal Mayan is returning. Neat. Slipped in amongst the G-Man's super manly talk about motorcycles 'n stuff. Baby Lonfan is totally right. They mirrored the image when they zoom into CC during the intro. Intro, Garibaldi's chest badge thingimajigawhatsits is on his...

    1x15 Grail Hey, it's the guy from the show with the brother Darryl and the other brother Darryl! Neat. First TKO, now Grail? That's a lot to bite off in one sitting. Does Grail go anywhere? I remember it being an eye roller. TKO was the sort of not-good that I could go along with, smile...

    1x14 TKO People in the future are terrible at drug deals. I mean c'mon guys, handshake and palm it off. And Garibaldi's equally bad at arresting them. "I sure hope nobody stabs me in the back I'm about to turn to them." Hey, a dashing stranger saves him. That's convenient. Oh god. I...

    I'm definitely on the S&P lovetrain. Not to besmirch everything up to this point, but everything else had pieces of "that leads to something good". This is really the first episode where I would say things get good instead of just laying some good framework for the future.

    Glad to hear I'm not just screaming into the void for the fun of it. :thumbsup: Also, kudos to whoever did whatever to the spam bots around here. It was a real problem last time I was by and now the problem seems to be completely cleared up.

    1x13 Signs and Portents This opening CGI seems more 90s CGIey than usual. I remember this episode name but not its content. Is that Morden? Baby faced young little Morden? I think big things are starting. Whee. Sinclair's asking a lowly security guy to investigate an event that would...

    *gasp* "It takes only a moment. But we spend the rest of our lives looking back at that moment in shame." I appreciate the nitpick.

    If you're ever feeling up to it, I always enjoy a rousing game of "discuss the nitpick". =] Deathwalker, I agree. Good for the universe, not so great to actually watch. Believers, I'd probably enjoy arguing either side of this episode more than I would actually watching it. Some thought...

    1x12 By Any Means Necessary I don't recall this coming up again. Would Ivanova be the one in charge of telling individual ships to hold? I always pictured her as the sort that would be in charge of the guy with that responsibility. Interesting side trivia... I know the literal translation...

    It occurred to me that a literal reading of what I'm writing would come off as quite harsh, and your post could have been worked from either interpretation. All good then :)

    I'd also like to be very clear that I love the show. You probably couldn't tell from reading my comments... but my baseline expectation is that everything is awesome, so its the rough edges / plot contrivances / snark that my brain picks up to comment on. This thread is not doing the show...

    1x11 Survivors What's with the difficult to read signs? It might look alien, but if you want people to grab rail at all times, use a legible font. I wonder how often this generic "guy ejected into space" model is used throughout the show. Franklin's mask looks more like he's about to rob a...

    Believers. Man, Franklin's kind of a jerk and a hypocrite. Reprimanding his assistant for mishandling the parents as he repeatedly violates their wishes, then immediately heading to Sinclair to ask him to order him to ignore the parents' wishes. Ivanova's B plot is boring so far. She...
