Shok Na? Ranger One? Huh???(spoilers)

This can't possibly be a spoiler since the movie has aired 7 times on the east coast since last Saturday.

Help me out people. I watched the movie 3 times myself since it did air back to back. During the naming ceremoney, did the captian refer to himself as Shok Na? And the first officer as Shok Nali?

It was my understanding that Shok Na meant Ranger One and Ranger One was the head of the entire Anlashok or Rangers. That there is always a Shok Na but only three times an Entilza (let's not get into that) So how does this guy who was a first officer on someone else's ship waiting for a promotion to Captian get to be Shok Na?

And, what was with G'Kar (I love him, though) in the mist of the Grey council? Delenn had to threaten practically to blow up the ship to be let in the last time & a Narn (ok not just any Narn) strolls in?

And as long as I'm venting:

What was with that scream fest from the weapons chick? A little goes a long way but after awhile I thought I was listening to that banshee shreeking from that Joan of Arc movie, The Messenger. Enough & if it is a series, I don't want to hear that every time there's a battle.

"Today is a good day to die" look, I love B5 as much as I love Trek so I hope that wasn't some kind of wise crack or insult because its one of the most famous Star Trek phrases.

Since the show is called "Legend of the Rangers" I really hope the series will be about THE RANGERS and their LEGEND & not just this ship & crew. Geeze if I wanted to see a lone ship saga I could watch reruns of Crusade & Voyager.

All in all I enjoyed the movie & will watch the show if it gets picked up.

There are a lot of people who don't live on the east coast of America who frequent this bb and this forum in particular, so it can possibly be a spoiler.

As far as I can tell, yes and yes.

Ranger One is Anla'Shok Na, and I assume that Captain is Shok Na.

I don't think that that was the Grey Council - it has been mentioned that it is the Ranger council (perhaps a little confusion since Minbari like the number nine and Grey cloaks with hoods).

There are indications that Crusade was not what it seemed, but that's best left to the Crusade forum.

I know many people think this but USA is not the only county on this world. The person who runs this site is based in the UK. Heh I mod this board and live in Australia.

Basically me just saying that people from all countrie's come to this website..so we must use spoiler warnings for a long time to come..


thankyou

Anyway I added spoiler warning to this thread and am closing it as you could have posted this in another premade thread and already got the answer to your question if you had read some of the other threads as answers and contained within.
