    The Aborted Reboot

    If anyone's interested, I summed up the whole 'reboot' idea (insofar as I know anything about it) and posted it on my site here http://kevin-long.com/what.asp?who=kevin&id=204 I also gave credit to B5tv.com

    The Archeology of Dreams

    Yeah, or Christian Slater from "Heathers.":) I'm not by nature a nostalgic person. Mostly I think it's because I have an exceptionally good memory and don't need to be. Everything is still in my head, still real, so I don't need to gaze back. Every once in a while, though, something will trip...

    The Archeology of Dreams

    I'm sad. It's been kind of a shit couple of weeks, and if I'm honest, sort of a shit year, so perhaps I'm not at the top of my game, emotionaly or mentally. Whatever the reason, though, I'm kind of glum. When I was young we moved around a lot, and I was kind of a problem kid, didn't interact...

    Claudia Watches Babylon 5 for the First Time

    Lots of actors don't partiuclarly LIKE to watch themselves. Everyone's got a different process, you know? Some people like to watch the playback and critique themselves item by item, some forget the role and move on the moment it's done. Some never want to see themselves on stage or screen. And...

    Mack Reynolds

    If anyone's interested, I wrote up a little review of his book here http://kevin-long.com/what.asp?who=kevin&id=201 It's pretty hysterically bad

    IF There Were Going To Be A Crusade Reboot, Who Would You Cast?

    True. Also: Stunt women generally work cheap, and can hit their marks, which is handy when you're doing a lot of FX, *AND* when you hire one, you don't have to hire another stunt woman to fill in for her. And they're NOTORIOUSLY easier to work with than your standard primadona actress. They're...

    IF There Were Going To Be A Crusade Reboot, Who Would You Cast?

    Yeah, that was kinda' weak, you're right. As for Scoggins, she boxes in the gym to stay in shape, so, yeah, she can throw a punch. Also: Texas chick. They're all crazy.

    All valid points. Game set and match to Jan.

    Claudia Christian's "One Little Pill" Documentary

    The reason I asked was because I heard her on Doyle's show, and it sounded pretty amazing and cool and I was looking more into it/her and instantly found this: located here...

    IF There Were Going To Be A Crusade Reboot, Who Would You Cast?

    There's a number of problems with the story. For starters, Sheridan destroyed the Blackstar late in the war, only shortly prior to the battle of the Line, not in the early days as shown here. If Franklin and Sheridan had not only met each other before, but been on a secret mission and...

    B5 in UK

    If you put the movies and Crusade together you get about 22 hours of TV. I've long wondered why Warner Bros. doesn't just bundle that stuff together with new titles in a new package and market it as "The Lost Season of Babylon 5."

    JMS speaks out on Michael O'Hare

    Maaaaaaaaaaaaan, that's uncool. It's about what I expected, but it's still disappointing.

    IF There Were Going To Be A Crusade Reboot, Who Would You Cast?

    Very similar opinions: "The Gathering" - original version slow, boring. Like the music. "The Gathering" - TNT version - much better, but I didn't care for the music. "In the Beginning" - easily the second-best of the movies, and probably the one I've watched most. Disappointed by the...

    Mack Reynolds

    I just read a novel by an author named "Mack Reynolds," and it is officially the second-worst SF novel I've ever seen. It was so bad that it made me rush out and buy the sequel just to see if he was always that bad, or if he was maybe recovering from a stroke or something when he wrote the first...

    IF There Were Going To Be A Crusade Reboot, Who Would You Cast?

    Point taken. She's a stuntwoman. Syntax was a little weird there. Are you saying ditch Durena altogether and replace her with Lyta working undercover, or recast the character with Pat Tallman? The actress who played Dr. Chambers was also a stuntwoman. JMS seems to like casting them.

    Crusade Vs. Star Blazers

    Ugh. They couldn't get rid of Talia soon enough to suit me. She was just a terrible character and a terrible actress and really poorly written. Losing Ivonova really hurt, though, I agree.

    IF There Were Going To Be A Crusade Reboot, Who Would You Cast?

    Arnie hasn't done any action in an action movie in like a decade. Sly specializes in men of action who are in their autumn years (Rocky Balboa, Rambo, his current boxing comedy, etc) They're more dramas about mortality than straight-ahead actioners. Bruce looks like an extremely buff Don Rickles...

    IF There Were Going To Be A Crusade Reboot, Who Would You Cast?

    Oh, I'm sure there's a lot of people, particularly among former genre actors. Stargate made a virtual industry of stunt-casting people from dead SF series to fill out their ranks. Jewel Staite, Robert Piccardo, Claudia Black, Ben Browder, Walter Koening, the chick who played Inarra from Firefly...

    Well, everyone's got their own favorite enigma from the show. Obviously that one's yours.
