    B5:TLT *Spoiler* Thread

    According to the Official B5 Chronology, A Call to Arms takes place from December 17 to December 30, 2266, with the Crusade series proper (starting from "War Zone") kicking off sometime between December 30th and January 1st, 2267. So Crusade would've ended (presumably, using B5's...

    B5:TLT *Spoiler* Thread

    Not as such, though of course, for obvious "real-world" reasons, there's nothing mentioned in the final Bester novel of the Centauri NYC attacks (set right after the end of Crusade, in 2271, and presumably roughly concurrent with the events of The Lost Tales), nor of Prince Regent Vintari. Nor...

    Changeling News

    Re: Variety reports on "Changeling" To say nothing of hanging out with Will Smith and George Clooney, among others (the former on the I Am Legend set; the latter in his Hollywood production office). So yep...he's making some major-league connections now; I think we can expect some huge things...

    A what if for Babylon 5

    I've had that excerpt for awhile, and here's the funniest part: One of the major cities nuked right as the story opens? San Diego. :lol: :devil: :D

    The advantage of no more B5

    Ohhhhh, no....Joe's still in there: "Look at this -- 'Dutch girls must be punished for having big boobs.' Now, you do not punish a girl, Dutch or otherwise, for having big boobs."

    New JMS Update (8/23/2004)

    The "retooling" phase is almost finished, and this new draft is also undoubtedly a revision that takes into account the abilities and parameters set by whichever VFX house(s) they're talking to. Which is pro forma in the industry. You do rewrites once the final budgets come in, and adjust the...

    San Diego Wastelands

    In the very first "Psi Corps" novel, Kevin Vacit and his French ho spend time in San Diego working on a case only a year or two (or three) before the nuking occurs.

    a definitive babylon 5 universe timeline...

    Yup, the original printing of the "Official B5 Chronology" from the magazine was *waaay* off in one tiny respect: the author decided to backdate the ENTIRE last fifth of the first season -- the "Voice in the Wilderness" two-parter, "Babylon Squared," et al -- based solely upon the offhand...

    B5 TV Movie DVD Set Release Info (August 17th)

    Actually, JMS has apparently *already* done audio commentaries for the set, which were quite critical of the then-management at TNT...the issue now at hand is whether or not WB will allow their *inclusion*.

    Just how similar are DS9 and B5?

    ...And, of course, there was that rather blatantly "similar" DS9 series finale, in which Sisko "goes home" to rejoin the Prophets beyond the Rim...er, I mean, "down the wormhole." Or, here's what JMS himself said, re: the amazing parallels betwixt the two (context here dealing with someone...

    WB announcement due on ...

    Yup. Their feature film division is by no means beholden to the same timetable as their TV division. It'll get released when it's time.

    Yup...I think my favorite one to date has been, "Teetotal Marcus on Stilts." Hell, that's probably the correct one, too... :eek: :lol:

    B5 Movie Rumor Finally Hits Aint it Cool News

    True, it may not be "officially confirmed" as yet by the studio, but given the fact that it's coming from JMS himself...in this particular case, it's virtually the same thing. He wouldn't be getting our collective hopes up until and unless this thing was a slam-dunk, which it appears to be since...

    TMoS casting guessing game

    Trouble is, it's not exactly a title brimming over with "marketing" appeal for that all-important crossover demographic...to say nothing of the fact that your Average Steve-Bob Moviegoer On The Street ain't gonna know who the hell this "Sheridan" is, to say nothing of paying gelt for a ticket...

    TMoS casting guessing game

    ...Dammit, it just struck me: If Paul Winfield hadn't passed away recently, there would have been an excellent opportunity for Dr. Franklin's father to have gotten worked back into the fold once again (which we'd hoped for during the last two seasons of B5, but which never materialized). Think...

    TMoS casting guessing game

    Well, there weren't any in there, since that novel is set long *after* the Teep War ends, and only contains direct flashbacks to the *political* repercussions during and after the war. ;) We do learn, however, that Lyta gets killed during one of the war's final battles (in the destruction of...

    Screw "Herc" and the crippled tortoise he rode in on. Hell, even JMS himself has called "Herc" on the carpet for him being a longtime biased TrekkiePartisan:

    TMoS casting guessing game

    Don't let Joe DeMartino hear you say that... :eek: Trust me (us) -- it gets *much* bigger than that towards the end. Just pick up the third "Psi Corps" novel and look at the back cover...it as much as states that the Interstellar Alliance enters the war and turns the tide back in EarthGov's...
