    No, it's a background Narn. You can tell from the mouth, as the area around the mouth for speaking parts is much more open and delicate. Same with the eye area. Hm...interesting thought. I'm thinking I won't try it, though, as it might rip the back of the mask, which already shows some wear.

    The Road Home review thread (contains spoilers)

    I really never cared for that marriage. JMS is a good enough writer that I've always felt he could have come up with some other explanation for Sheridan trusting Lochley implicitly that wouldn't have taken any more time to explain. It'd be nice if we do find out more in future animated...

    Two JMS books coming in 2021

    I'd count SENSE8 as sf, for sure. I've read an ARC of 'The Glass Box' and enjoyed it a lot. That said, I'd consider it more of a near-future dystopic story than what most folks think of as SF. It's three months out for the January 9, 2024 US release.

    The Road Home review thread (contains spoilers)

    Still waiting for a source for that. Re: No Shadow War - yet, anyway. After all, where the animated movie leaves off, Sinclair's a ship captain as is Lochley. So one wonders how & why Sheridan got the post.

    Maybe in that ficton they'd explored each other's...Pleasure Thresholds? ?

    whats a triluminary?

    We never saw a starfury built but we know they were built somewhere. We never saw the time stabilizers built but we accept that the Great Machine made them. Why should it be any different with the triluminaries? Occam's razor.

    We know that the triluminaries came from Epsilon 3. We saw Zathras bring them up from the planet. https://jmsnews.com/messages/message?id=10312

    I Wonder If JMS Would Consider Continuing The Crusade Storyline In Animated Movie Form.

    Except that JMS has made it quite clear many times that he's not going to retell the story. And it's obvious that the animated movies (should there be more) are taking a different direction, too. The sad reality is that the minute Crusade was cancelled months before airing, it was dead...

    Official: Babylon 5 coming to Blu-ray in December

    The BluRays will be the same remastering as has been on Prime and all the rest - the original 4:3 aspect ratio. Those were released over a year ago but the BluRay was just recently announced.

    I Wonder If JMS Would Consider Continuing The Crusade Storyline In Animated Movie Form.

    This is what he said about it as recently as May: He also made it clear the other night that he'd much rather write new stories than do the trilogies in animated form.

    The Road Home review thread (contains spoilers)

    As far as I'm concerned, JMS isn't likely to have needed to be told that both fan service and accessibility to new viewers would be necessary. Why would he, since it's obvious if we're to see any more of these? I do think there might have been more time taken to see things from Delenn's...

    The Road Home review thread (contains spoilers)

    Thanks for the confirmation about Anna. Since I don't have a BluRay player, I'm not likely to be able to see the commentaries or featurette soon. Yours is the first 'lukewarm' review I've seen, but if you don't care for JMS' humor, that makes sense. Not sure what expectations of a 78-minute...

    The Road Home review thread (contains spoilers)

    I get that you're not knocking it. And after posting, I started thinking that I did wish we'd been able to see even a little more of Delenn's determination/quest to find Sheridan. It was kind of one-sided. I think it's important to remember that the B5 stories and subtexts built on...

    The Road Home review thread (contains spoilers)

    Some friends and I (who saw it at Comic-Con) were talking about that and wondered whether he'd even married Anna in that ficton. Even so, our viewpoint Sheridan had, so maybe he was just disconcerted by jumping and the atmosphere (that's my story... ;-) ). Love did conquer all in the...
