    JMS Moving to the UK

    I'm not really sure but I don't think he could do all the running and jumping required for the part. But if they need somebody to turn off lights, he's the Guy! :p

    JMS Moving to the UK

    Yes, he's now officially a Resident of the UK and has a Visa that permits him to live *and work* there. He's always expressed interest, recently commenting that it would be a dream come true when asked. But some have tried starting rumors that he's got a Secret Agreement to take the show over...

    Babylon 5 Trading Cards

    Not embossed, no. But a Harlan Ellison autographed card is 1.8 grams. And a lasercut card of the Station is 1.6 - which makes sense since it has holes in it.

    Babylon 5 Trading Cards

    Okay, so I finally got the Enterprise card I'd mentioned and took it out of all of the packaging and weighed it. Much to my surprise, it came out to 2.3 grams. I don't know if there's a thin bit of paper between the sides since the embossing is quite distinct but even for only $10, I'm not...

    Babylon 5 Trading Cards

    As a former owner of one of these cards, let me assure y'all that there was nowhere near 3 grams of gold in each card! Not even 1, I'm pretty sure. It's a fun little thing, though.

    EpDis: Sleeping In Light

    "As it should be..." </Lorien> I hope I never stop crying during that episode.

    B5 on Amazon Prime

    Could be different rules for different countries? I'm reasonably sure that here in the US, the movies have never made it to any of the streaming services. They're available for purchase on Amazon, but not included in membership like the seasons are. And why it's just the movies and not Season...

    B5 on Amazon Prime

    I asked JMS about the movies when he mentioned that the original edit being used instead of the Special Edition.

    B5 on Amazon Prime

    For those who haven't heard, B5 is now included with Amazon Prime membership - at least in the US. No sign of the movies except that "The Gathering" is now shown as an 'Extra' to season 1. I think before it was plopped at the end of season 1 as a 23rd episode.

    Get Well Soon, Jason Carter!

    Jason Carter's wife posted that he recently had surgery to correct an atrial aneurism. He's been moved out of ICU and is recovering as expected.

    The Babylon 5 Preservation Project

    Ah, sorry - if I'd known you work in publishing I'd forgotten. Oops! Of course you're much more aware than I am, then. I'm not sure how B5Books does things these days except that they're moving to all e-books, I think. I'm afraid I've lost track a bit since they moved away from CafePress...

    The Babylon 5 Preservation Project

    When looking at costs (or worth), something to keep in mind also is that the cost of paper has skyrocketed. Granted, I don't have figures for printers, but simple copy paper is up $18.39/case since 2022.

    The Babylon 5 Preservation Project

    Ouch - yeah, my sympathies on the shipping costs to the UK. It's gotten really bad! Voicing concerns is valid, too. I'm afraid I took your "...cramming the book..." to be a way of saying you thought he might be padding things; and while I expect far more detail than anybody ever expected, I...

    The Babylon 5 Preservation Project

    Involved? Not in the least. I stated what I wanted to state - sort of the purpose of forms, as I recall. But you called it "feedback", a term that usually would include it being directed at somebody who might respond to your concerns. I didn't say a word about what the book is like or...

    The Babylon 5 Preservation Project

    I assume you've shared that feedback where he might actually see it? Otherwise it's not feedback, as I'm certainly not going to report to him every casual criticism I see online Many fans do like exactly that level of detail and this project continues JMS' goal to pull the curtain away from...

    The Babylon 5 Preservation Project

    No, it's not quite at the proofreading stage. And far, far more information in the form of interviews and production documents were discovered than were ever thought of when the project started - as I think any donor should be aware of if they're paying the slightest attention. Given the name...

    In Memory Still Bright: Mira Furlan

    FWIW, there are many things we can't cure or even alleviate. Heck, Dr. Fauci almost died of the exact same thing!

    WATCHMEN CHAPTER 1 - JMS

    <chop> Thanks, it was very dicey in a lot of areas but in mine it was just really scary since it came through at night. Now, see - I bristle at the idea of anybody requiring 'necessary' when it comes to art. Because none of it is 'necessary', it's only a matter of whether the artist (of...

    WATCHMEN CHAPTER 1 - JMS

    Except he never sanctions anything, does he? I've heard some great things about the Before Watchmen minis, some of which JMS wrote. Thoughts?

    Looney, Looney...I've TOLD you the secret of acquiring all my Wonderful Things: Simply wave lots of money at me and once I deposit it safely, it's all yours! The more money, the better, of course. ETA: Well, for now at least the script collection is pretty much staying with me. Which isn't...
