18 months is fairly unusual. Only movies with an incredible amount of postproduction take that long. (The Star Wars movies take almost *2 years* from filming to release.) It actually seems like there are as many examples in which a movie took less than a year from filming to release than...

It'll finally be getting its DVD release on February 8th.

I first saw this movie about three years ago and have been waiting for its DVD release ever since. Now it's finally arriving on February 22nd. If the idea of a scifi/comedy/musical (with a bit of western thrown in as well) made on a shoestring budget sounds interesting to you then I can't...

Speaking of those ratings, I don't know if it's been mentioned here yet, but it looks like the second week of BSG scored a 2.3 rating, down only slightly from the 2.6 it got a week earlier with the premiere: http://www.thefutoncritic.com/cgi/gofuton.cgi?action=pr&id=20050124scifi01 That puts...

I agree with pretty much everything you said in your post Joe, except 1) that I don't think The Hulk sucked, though of course I acknowledge that my opinion on that is irrelevant to the topic at hand, since word of mouth depends on the collective opinion of the total audience, not my own personal...

But see, here's why there are shades of gray in this Ant. In your last post, in listing examples of things that were spoiled for your, you include spoilers for Buffy Season 5 and 24 Season 1 without any spoiler warning. Now, of course you have good reason for doing this, as both of these first...

How about these two pics? Separated at birth?: Mirror Universe Bashir Baltar

There's also the problem that there really isn't any universal rule for what kind of spoiler requires a warning. Even leaving aside the fact that people in different countries get things at different times, there's the fact that not everyone watches everything right as soon as it comes out...

Nonetheless, I've seen it happen many times. Most of the time, the perpetrator doesn't realize what he's done--figures everyone who might be reading has already seen the show/movie in question. But occasionally, you get these idiots who actually do it on purpose to get their jollies. Of...

I don't think that's what Antony's talking about. I think he's talking about when people drop spoilers into a discussion without any warning. In that case, it's not a matter of temptation, because you didn't know what you were about to read before you read it. The worst is when people put...

*All* blame? Shouldn't, say, the people who aren't watching it but could be deserve some blame? Does anyone else get a bit of an Alexander Siddig vibe from James Callis (Baltar)? The voice is similar, and Baltar looks a bit like Bashir from the mirror universe.

Re: Film Jerk talks of re-casting, and more about An easy way to locate news articles on this is to search Google News. Just go to http://news.google.com/nwshp?hl=en&gl= and "search news" for "Babylon 5". Or just follow this link: http://news.google.com/news?hl=en&ned=us&q=Babylon+5 Clearly...

Re: He\'s BAAAAaaaaaccckkk! You have a point JJ. However, I do think that wanting "movie" actors is not necessarily the same thing as wanting high priced actors. I think Quentin Tarantino once said that most casting people have a list of actors that they tend to draw on for even supporting...

Re: He\'s BAAAAaaaaaccckkk! I highly doubt this is being viewed by WB as a Crusade or Rangers story. My theory is that, while JMS's preference was to do a movie that featured the original characters, presumably about the Telepath War, WB insisted that TV actors wouldn't sell tickets, so they...

Just in case anyone here is interested, IMDb now has a page up for TMoS: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0437842/ They refer to it as "Babylon 5: The Memory of Shadows" but give absolutely no other details, other than a 2006 release date (which is probably a good guess).

Re: uh-oh....this doesn\'t sound good. Recoil- Assuming the Film Jerk / Hollywood North Report plot info is accurate (and I suspect that it is), then my *guess* is that the movie continues the Crusade story in that sense that it's about the Technomages and the covert use of Shadow tech, but...

I don't know, but it may have something to do with the fact that some of the people associated with IGN have previously stated that they have insider info suggesting that it was originally intended that Crusade would include more holdovers from the cast of B5, including Boxleitner as Sheridan.

Re: Info on TMoS recasting and letter writing camp Well, I don't know that I'd put it that way. Ant specifically dropped the "news" aspect of the site because he doesn't have the time to maintain it. I don't think he really has any kind of *obligation* to renege on that now that things are...

Re: uh-oh....this doesn\'t sound good. What I meant was the stuff *since* the Diane Baker plot rumor. Namely, the three different sources mentioning Joss Morgan, Tyrell, and the extensive plot information that I won't go into because I'm too lazy to put up a spoiler warning.

Re: uh-oh....this doesn\'t sound good. Every reviewer in the world? Do you really think Roger Ebert is lurking at this forum? ;) Or maybe JMS's preference was for a movie that focused exclusively on the old characters, but WB wasn't interested in going that route. JMS might be more...
