    The Fourteen Words To Make Someone Fall In Love

    re: Powerball and friends from the pilot for the sitcom My Two Dads as Paul Riser's character pursues a pretty blonde: PB: "I just want us to be friends." PR: "That's all I want too." PB: "How do you define 'friend'?" PR: "Friend: someone whom I have seen naked at least once. Want to know how I...

    The Fourteen Words To Make Someone Fall In Love

    Elric and the Technomage books never specifically told us, but I am certain these are the words: - <table bgcolor=black><tr><td bgcolor=black><font size=1 color=white>Spoiler:</font></td></tr><tr><td><font size=2 color=black> "You musta really been something before electricity. Wanna make...

    Why did Sheridan really replace Sinclair?

    JMS on Pilot Films

    ...we can always count on Joe to give us a sensible answer. Thanks for helping to bring a measure of sanity to the "was it good or not" debate. Those who disliked TLADIS seem to me to be pessimistic nitpickers who were looking to be disappointed, and the results were natural. For those more...

    B5LR: Disappointment

    I'll take a stab at this, coming at from someone who rated the movie a solid 'B': ""As far as comparing Legend of the Rangers with the Gathering one thing must be kept in mind: The Gathering was introducing the viewer to a new universe, new alien races, new ships, a new "look" in general, as...

    Gunnery Pod (spoilers)

    SPOILERS (in deference to Anthony): I think the gunnery pod is a great idea; Sarah suspended in a 360, 3D enviroment is a great set of visuals and a great concept. The targeting with the retinal scan worked fine. However..... My willing suspension of disbelief was strained to the breaking...

    Quote of Note

    My favorite lines (per character, and probably not 100% accurate) Londo "...I'm cute too! Everyone is cute! But in purple, I am stunning!" Susan : :"so you feel you've been symbolically cast- in a bad light?" Sinclair : "There is no transmitter. I figured if there was, eventually they'd find...

    Quote of Note

    Because it was demanded: "Zathras used to being beast of burden." "Noone ever listens to poor Zathras." "Zathras trained in Crisis Management." "There are ten of us, all brothers. All of family Zathras. All ten named Zathras. Slight difference is how you pronounce 'Zathras'.... 'Zathras'...

    B5 CCG

    I think you're right on there; it's a shame that B5 is so great on the way JMS crafts the universe, but that it always seems to get the short end on any kind of publicity, marketing, and luck. Maybe there is some hope: if the Rangers makes it to series, maybe they'll get the game started again...

    Confusion

    I've tried not to torture myself with speculation on what the series would be like until they actually committ to a series, BUT... my impression is the Hand would be a Recurring Villian, not the Focus of the Series. There would be plenty of non Hand stories, and as time and the story devloped...

    If anyone wants to try to find a local group of players, send me a private email (jaxb5ranger@aol.com) - I can help you hunt down the closest players for a lot of areas. I know there are still strong player bases in Florida and Texas, and other states. I just love the player interaction in the...

    B5 CCG

    How many of you used to (or better yet still do) play the Babylon 5 Card game? I love it far and above the other cards games out there, even though it's currently out of production. The game really "feels" like the B5 universe, not just a game with pictures from the show. You get tons of great...

    what order?

    Tricky question: there is no true order to watch Crusade eps. in. When Sci Fi showed the episodes, that was the order JMS wanted them shown, to minimize the impact of TNT's influences. But's it's not chronological; it's meant to convey the feel of how JMS wanted the show to be viewed, but still...

    Theatrical Trailer

    I guess the frustration level (for me anyway) does not find it's emphasis with "a sci fi series centered on a small conflicted spaceship" as much as it does that yet another sci fi series with nothing behind it expect a name (granted a good one) gets the easy, quick nod, fast track while Rangers...

    B5LR put back, again

    Why so many "downer" posts on these lists? Not that I want to encourage any more of them, but that seems fairly easy: the B5 universe and it's fans have had a rough time for a long time. JMS had to fight epic battles to get it on the air and keep it going. It almost got cancelled, it was...

    About this new urber race who make the shadows look like inscets....

    No, I don't think it can be taken literally. For a couple of reasons: 1) order of magnitude. the Elder Races (Vorlons and Shadows) were immensely powerful and were only finally defeated through words, not deeds. To then have a force capable of a whole order of magnitude more powerful not be able...

    Funniest B5 Quotes

    not a Lt Corwin quote, but the stress bat thing from River of Souls is cute - but it gets hillarious when Lochley has it modified. "Nobody likes me." "My mommy dresses me funny." As for what happened to David Corwin, I doubt he ever rose much higher than Lt. He doesn't have the temperment to...

    Crazy Jerry Doyle

    I met Jerry Doyle at DragonCon this year, and this wouldn't suprise me a bit to be true. He's a genuinely good guy and as real a person as they probably allow in Hollywood (along with Richard Biggs and Julie Catlin Brown), but he's definitely got a hard edge I know would show up when warranted...
