    Production Question

    Well, I do know that Foundation Imaging handled to CG effects for the first three seasons, and seasons 4 and 5 were done by Netter Digital.

    In what order should I watch my B5 marathon?

    Just out of curiosity -- why wouldn't you watch ItB first? The reason there is question about whether or not to start with ItB or The Gathering is because some feel preserving the surprise of Sinclair's identity is important for someone who's never seen the show. But since you have, why...

    My ONLY complaint: What happened to Minbar?

    To me, it still looked like the buildings were made of crystalline spires. Though the architecture *did* look different. I don't really have a problem with this - in fact, I *like* that it looks different from things we've seen before. The fact that LOTR has different production designers and...

    Equality among the races?

    Something occurred to me while watching LOTR the other day. Martel mentions in the movie how only recently have the Rangers begun accepting Narn and Drazi recruits. Ideally I suppose, once they gain more numbers and aquire an equal level of experience they will be equals in the eyes of the...

    Interesting....

    There actually were some white stars in the movie, if you looked very carefully. In the background in the scene where either the Valen or the Liandra lifts off on Minbar, in the sky on the left side you can see a few of them. ------------------ -jmb

    Favorite Rangers Quote (spoilers)

    I thought Martel had the best lines. Very witty. Can't recall anything specific right now...but I especially liked his exchanges with Sarah. ------------------ -jmb

    At the very end... (SPOILERS)

    ...why was G'Kar going to Babylon 5? What is his position exactly? Does he live/work on the station again after returning from his voyage with Lyta? Granted, it was probably just an excuse to see the station again, which I have no problem with! Just curious as to why he would actually be...

    Possible shape of a series arc?

    Based on TLADIS, this is my initial thought on what the Rangers series may be like. Seasons 1/2 would deal with the Hand plot thread, possibly resolving it, since we hear nothing of it during Crusade (which, though, does not mean they are not around). By season 3, as many have pointed out...

    the One thing that totally disgusted me...(spoilers)

    Actually, I really liked the weapons interface. It makes perfect sense, and I'm surprised that the White Stars or some other ship we've seen never had this capability. It's much more intuitive and cuts down response time, allowing a ship to be much more effective in battle. There's no "target...

    We die for the One, we die for the One.

    I watched the movie with a bunch of friends, and we were all struck by something concerning the Ranger code. It really does not make sense, at least to me, for their "core principle" to be never to retreat from combat. This just doesn't sit right with me. In some cases, it is tactically wise...

    Channe Takes On "To Live And Die In Starlight" (SPOILERS)

    I think you're dead on, channe. I chalk it up to the fact that jms had a very limited amount of time to develop a concept and hand in a script - otherwise, a lot of the clunky dialogue and awkward scenes would have been cut/revised methinks. Though you have to give him credit for that naming...

    A BIG thanks to the cast and crew who have posted here.

    I just wanted to express my thanks too. The interaction between those involved with the movie, and their closeness to the posters as well as the closeness of all the fans posting here (even us lurkers) is just making this event all the more exciting. So a very big thank you is in order.

    Jerry Doyle?

    Yep, Jerry Doyle's ex-wife was Andrea Thompson. And she actually was the one who played Ross's ex-wife's lesbian partner on Friends, so both things you said were right. ------------------ -jmb

    Just what is the best non arc episode?

    Just thought you guys might want to know, as long as someone brought up the TNG episode "Chain of Command," it's on tonight on TNN. Both parts. Starts at 9. Coincidence? I think not! Anyway I hate how not only does TNN have that stupid as all hell "info bar" on the bottom of the screen that...

    So what about the episodes on DVD?

    WHV execs should check out this article at CNN: http://www.cnn.com/2001/SHOWBIZ/TV/12/05/hol.television.on.dvd.ap/index.html ------------------ -jmb

    Is there anyone here that hasn't seen b5?

    Re: Is there anyone here that hasn\'t seen b5? Man oh man...my first taste of B5 was in '93 when I saw The Gathering...then I started to watch the show in its original run. My local affiliate got screwy with the schedule and changed the timeslot for B5 periodically without warning, so I missed...

    Greatest Moment

    Don't have to mention it because all of you did -- there are just so many great moments! "If you value your lives, be somewhere else." (!) (I guess we're not using spoiler boxes here, because it would have to be contained in every post, so forgive me for not using them.) No one's mentioned...

    Anyone else kinda glad to see Crusade gone?

    Actually, in a way I am glad that Crusade is gone. I would have loved to see it continue the way jms intended -- but the fact of the matter was, TNT's meddling did/would have tainted it. I suspect that the existing 13 episodes, save the few completed before the hiatus, would be much better as...

    The Official B5 website...why so bad?

    Yeah, the official site was/is pretty crappy. This has always kind of surprised me. It's kind of ironic given the fact that Babylon 5 is the first show/film where the powers that be (in this case, the main main himself) have taken such an active role in communicating with the fan base through...
