That actually sounds very interesting. Thanks a lot for sharing that. So it sounds like the new B5 will be different from the classic series in some important ways (a conflict accidentally started, but with a whopping 1 million year difference in the age of the two sides). I'm excited...

That's a great point. But he was up for the idea of a Telepath War movie. A lot of the background and development would have been done by the series, but a lot would have to be dropped.

I think a lot of people haven't read past the first book, or only know Dune through the Lynch movie. And that is a great Frank Herbert quote. Interesting take on Nixon.

The Bene Gesserit are in the long-term game of shaping humanity, they did lay down the myths the Kwisatz Haderach would need to easily take over the Fremen population. So the story really has deep roots of manipulation and population control on epic scales. And I won't spoil future Dune films...

:lol: I saw a You Tube video of someone replying to some a criticism that it was a "white savior" story. The critic clearly hasn't read the rest of the book series. I hope this director can do more than 2, I'd love to see him direct the entire original series. I was worried at first that...

I dropped cable/satellite service and now I just use Hulu Plus.

And today they announced that Part 2 has been given the go-ahead. I loved the movie. It set the stage for what I hope may be a series of the Frank Herbert Dune books. It defined the characters. But will people who are not already Dune fans like it, when basically all of the backstory was...

The original Dark Shadows series is one of my guilty pleasures. Regarding the dream episode: Wow, that would have been amazing! I can't imagine what the network didn't like about it. I was watching a You Tube interview with the actor who played Lennier (Bill Mumy) and apparently he HATED...

I read the first two books in the series, but I haven't had time to start on another new series on television. I'm glad to know it's worth watching, it seemed like one of the better and more space-science-realistic series I've ever read. I'll start watching it probably when I finish the...

Although I'd love to see some guest appearances from the original series, I really just want to see what an alternate universe's Babylon 5 would be like. I want to be surprised.

How are you paying for the site, these days? It is very enjoyable visiting a board that doesn't push ads.

:lol:

Aren't you supposed to say "Hello, old friend"?

That's how I tended to feel about it all, too. Although I don't know much of the director's work, Arrival was great and the Blade Runner sequel just didn't really go anywhere, but that's not the director's fault. I've heard a lot of buzz about what a great director he is. And Lynch's film had...

That's kind of you.

*Waves at Kribu* It certainly has been a long time. I hope you have been well.

No kidding. I suppose it has to do with contracts but it seems a lot of money is being lost.

So it has released, in other areas. Then what I heard wasn't advanced sales, it's making that much right now. From what I've heard this film will cover something up to somewhere around the middle of book 1. I think the second film got the go-ahead to move forward, but there would have to be...
