Background: Over five years ago, several months before "Legend of the Rangers" aired, Ain't It Cool News ran a negative review of the movie by a contributor with the handle "Christopher Pike". "Pike" later set up an account on this board, and proceeded to defend his review to the skeptical...

10 years since Z\'ha\'dum One of the lines that always struck me from "Sleeping in Light" comes from the beginning of the ep, when Sheridan says to Delenn "It was....20 years ago that I died on Z'ha'dum." It's hard for me to wrap my brain around 20 years, as I was only 21 years old when SiL...

Script book 5: abandoned concept for \"Za\'ha\'dum\" OK, I don't see any threads anywhere on discussions of the actual *content* of the JMS script books. Not sure if this is the right forum for it, but the mods can move it if not. I just finished reading script book #5. The most interesting...

JMS talks about releasing the B5 scripts, and past efforts at developing a B5 video game: http://www.gamecloud.com/omg.wtf?lolz=2281

I haven't seen this mentioned in any other thread: http://msnbc.msn.com/id/10037170/ In the last paragraph of the story, B5 is mentioned as one of the shows in question.

This news was posted on the scifi.com boards by user "koenigrules", who is involved with a weekly BSG webcast that includes interviews with castmembers and inside info. That is, he's a fan who has connections, and could be considered a reliable source, though of course, nothing is official...

This post contains spoilers for the season finale of Battlestar Galactica, and speculation on Season 2 revelations based on events in said episode. Read no further if you haven't seen the season finale. Just saw this posted on the scifi.com boards. Someone pointed out that near the end of...

This post contains spoilers for BSG episodes up through the season finale. Do not proceed if you haven't seen Season 1 in its entirety: Having just finished BSG Season 1 a few days ago, two questions have popped into my mind about Baltar: 1) Can anyone shed some light on why he...

You know one thing that's surprised me is that, with all of the various rumors about TMoS over the course of the last two months, no one (to my knowledge) has created a dedicated fan website for the movie. Sure, there's keepb5alive.com, but that's dedicated to the campaign against recasting...

I first saw this movie about three years ago and have been waiting for its DVD release ever since. Now it's finally arriving on February 22nd. If the idea of a scifi/comedy/musical (with a bit of western thrown in as well) made on a shoestring budget sounds interesting to you then I can't...

Just in case anyone here is interested, IMDb now has a page up for TMoS: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0437842/ They refer to it as "Babylon 5: The Memory of Shadows" but give absolutely no other details, other than a 2006 release date (which is probably a good guess).

As I'm sure 95% of the people reading this already know, some news has recently come out regarding the recasting of the old characters in the as-yet-not-officially-announced B5 movie The Memory of Shadows, and this has sparked a letter writing campaign to dissuade Warner Bros. from going...

You can find some promotional pictures for the upcoming Farscape miniseries here and here. Both sites claim that these are "spoiler pictures", but there really isn't anything terribly spoilerish about them, unless you want to avoid even knowing which characters and races will be showing up.

Some of the obits that have come out have now been linked in the other thread. I just wanted to point out that, if you're interested in finding online coverage of this, one easy way to do it is to search Google News. Just go to Google News and search for "Richard Biggs". Or, since I've...

What good are internet messageboards if they don't allow you to speculate based on virtually nothing in the way of hard facts? Since JMS has now all but confirmed that TMoS is a feature film to be, and, years ago, he said that he'd want any future B5 movie to include the original cast (because...

Just wondering if anyone else has seen the recent SF indie Robot Stories which stars Tamlyn Tomita. I happened to catch a screening of it earlier tonight. It consists of four short stories dealing with robots, each set in either the present or near future. It was made on what appears to be a...

Richard Kelly, the writer/director of Donnie Darko, is finally set to direct another movie, titled Southland Tales. Here's the scoop. Because it's Kelly, there's a high probability that it'll be good, so I'm looking forward to this. A "comedy-musical/thriller" with "fantasy dream...

Here's an interesting tidbit from Dark Horizons: http://www.darkhorizons.com/news03/031215g.php

I thought this op/ed by Jonah Goldberg on the decline in the quality of television was pretty interesting for two reasons: 1) The thesis that the "Golden Age" of television in the 50s and 60s wasn't really as golden as the 80s and 90s. I'm not old enough to make a fair comparison myself, but...

Don't know if this has been posted yet: http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/thr/article_display.jsp?vnu_content_id=1984992 It's funny how the election was between a B5 actor and a Farscape actor...(Kent McCord played John Crichton's father on Farscape.)...with a Star Trek actor winning the job of...
