    Firefly Question

    I watched the first episode they aired and found the show rather confusing (and we won't even go into the mixing of Western and Sci-Fi). After seeing the pilot, it cleared some things up. Maybe if they had aired that episode first, the ratings would have been a little higher.

    Firefly Question

    IMHO, this show got canceled cause the network screwed around with the broadcast order. For some insane reason, the last episode they aired was the two-hour pilot . I agree, this show was nowhere near as good as Joss Whedon's other show ( Buffy of course) but at the time, it was the only...

    Gotta love Warner Bros packaging skills ...

    Just discovered these bloopers in the R1 Season 1 set: -The Picture of Delenn on the back of the outer box is from The Gathering rather than the first season make-up. -On the booklet the images with the first disc have a Soul Hunter. No problem, except the picture is of Martin Sheen from The...

    Gideon back again

    Whenever I see Gary Cole, I still see Jack Killian. For anyone going "huh?" that was his character in a show called "Midnight Caller" where he played a cop-turned-late-night-talk-show-host. It was well written and acted with a very surealistic noir feel to it. Sadly, it only lasted three...

    Coming Attractions!

    I believe the practice I mentioned was mostly done in the 1930's and 40's, when going to the movie was more than just to see the film. It was also to see the news with visuals via newsreels (TV's were around in the 40's, but cost roughly what Bill Gates is worth) and some cartoons (where do you...

    Coming Attractions!

    I don't remember this (I'm not that old) but the reason the previews for upcomig films are called trailers is because they showed after the main feature. Nowadays, it's a scramble for the doors as soon as the credits roll. The only movies I went to the theater to see in the past few years...

    Just curious, Antony, what did/didn't you like about Spider-Man ?

    Remarks on Passing through Gethsemene

    It's a better reason than letting the other person kill you . If I kill someone that was trying their damnedest to kill me, I will not cry any tears except those of relief that I am still alive.

    Remarks on Passing through Gethsemene

    I believe it was Brother Edward. Brother Theo was the head of the monks. It is true, there are no easy answers in this episode, but that's where some of the best episodes of B5 leave you. JMS said a good story should provoke discussion, commentary... and the occasional bar fight. :lol:

    Gaming Question?

    Based on B5? A game based on a ten-year old TV show made for a game system that is mainly marketed to people that either weren't born or in diapers when the show was airing? Doubtful. Would be nice, though.

    "... videotape is dead, man."

    Re: \"... videotape is dead, man.\" It isn't limited to actors. Just take a listen to some of JMS's commentaries on the B5 episodes, "The Fall of Night" in particular where he gripes that they should have had a fan on Sheridan's face. Antony, I very much agree with you, but until DVD...

    How do you survive? I would be lost without my DVD player. Especially with the current state of TV programming.

    Big B5 update from jms!!!

    I think we need some confirmation on this. Anyone with a direct line to Joe DeMartino? If anyone on here would know about this, it would him. As to speculation, I think cooling it would be a good idea. I think it would really suck if we had to wait for another B5 project for the five years if...

    What season one episdoes are essential?

    "A Voice in the Wilderness Pt. 1 & 2" are not episodes that can be skipped. They introduce: Draal and the Great Machine The situation on Mars The relationship between Garibaldi and Lise The "favor" that Delenn owes Londo Earth's (unhealthy?) thirst for new technology And those are just the...

    X2 (SPOILERS within)

    Ah, yes. I forgot that Hyp has a thing for Stewart. Strangely enough, Famke Janssen did nothing for me when I saw her in Goldeneye (Pierce Brosnan's 1st 007 movie), but I thought she was hot in X-Men . Of course I do have a overwhelming fondness for redheads, which might have something to do...

    X2 (SPOILERS within)

    I seem to be following a trend with the X-Men films. I never saw the first one in the theaters and bought the DVD sight-unseen and have now done the same with the second. In both cases, I was happy that I did so. My theory with adaptations from another medium differs depending on the type of...
