    the drazi thing

    If there's one thing I'd expect from JMS, it's a game of misdirection. I'd expect a lot of what we "know" about the Drazi to get turned on it's head. Just remember that G'Kar was supposed to be a bad guy at the beginning of B5... ------------------ WombatControl...

    Li Chen...

    Hmmm... he's scheduled to do a film at the same time. I wonder if that deal fell through. He seems to be a good fit for the series based on that website... I suppose we'll all have to wait for the official word to confirm. ------------------ WombatControl http://www.flarn.com/wombatcontrol/...

    Two new castmembers revealed

    Just some notes on this info, which can be considered official now. Dylan Neal worked in the Captain Power series which just so happened to be executive produced by none other than JMS. Alex Zahara has quite a number of genre credits, which seems to indicate he knows what he's doing in SF...

    Babylon 5 shooting location?

    B5 was originally filmed in a converted hot tub factory in an LA suburb. (I believe it was Sherman Oaks, but I'm not sure on that one...) Production costs in Canada are significantly lower than in LA, which is why filming in Vancouver has been a popular thing to do. (Dark Angel, Lone Gunmen...

    More interesting news from Sci-Fi

    This is great news... word is that Bonnie Hammer is at least a supporter of Babylon 5 and possibly a fan herself. (I've been told she really, really wanted to get Crusade from TNT but they jacked up the price to well over their budget out of spite.) Let me say congradulations to the new...

    SFC ratings for the week:

    The problems with TNT were caused by the fact that wrestling followed B5 most of the time - two (usually) totally different audiences. If you put Rangers in with the Friday Prime block, you'd definately see tons of crossover. POT - the ratings are the measuring stick by which all programming...

    SFC ratings for the week:

    That's actually about how Crusade did as a first-run series on TNT. That's good considering that first, it's a second-run showing, and second, SFC has less households than TNT did by quite a margin. To finish in the top four clearly shows the wisdom in SFC's commitment to Babylon 5...

    Allright, your fave episode of each of the 5 seasons

    Here's my picks... Season One: "Crysalis" - Talk about a WHAM episode... this one took the entire Babylon 5 universe and turned it on its head. That definitely took guts on JMS' part. I remember being completely stunned by this episode. Season Two: "The Coming of Shadows" - While "Comes the...

    Let's Get Real Here

    Re: Let\'s Get Real Here Yes, Crusade can come back, but it's not very likely. The workload for JMS would be horrendous - while it would be possible for him to do Crusade, Rangers, TWCBN, and whatever else he's up to, it would be a lot for one person. He'd certainly have to give up a lot of...

    The box that lies & the ship that looked like a Shadow...

    Actually, that precedes the Earth Civil War... The real reason for the attack was that the Shadow/EA Hybrid was out of control. It wasn't supposed to attack Gideon's ship, but they couldn't stop it either. ------------------ WombatControl http://www.flarn.com/wombatcontrol/ "Who let the spoo...

    The composer

    As is also true with special effects, the score you *don't* notice is often the best. Even the Gladiator score by Hans Zimmer, which is brilliant in its own right doesn't overpower the action on the screen. That's one of the problems I had with Chen, his scores often interefered with the scene...

    Ratings

    Based on what JMS has been saying, I rather doubt that a second season of Crusade would be a possibility in the near future - at least not until Rangers is finished. As much as we'd all like to see it return, I don't think JMS could handle three concurrent series, a motion picture, and his own...

    Questions about the Victory Class Destroyer

    The b5tech.com site has much fan speculation to it and should not be considered a canon source for those things. The Victories were never intended to have organic armor on them, what you see is what they were to have had. ------------------ WombatControl http://www.flarn.com/wombatcontrol/ "Who...

    The unproduced scripts

    Yeah, posting them would be a Very Bad Idea(tm). However, just passing them around via e-mail, while frowned upon, is probably not going to land one in hot water. Actually, I bought a copy of Value Judgements at a convention from Scripts from the Lot. I highly recommend it, it's an excellent...
