But then ... it is streets ahead of most of the crap that passes for Sci-Fi (sorry, Syfy) original movies these days. Even if they star Brucey as the Sherrif.

I just turn down the light a little more to around about "total blackness". That seems to do the trick in my case. :D

I think Futurama works better in short form than it did in the longer direct-to-DVD form. That said, I still thought the 4 movies were more hit than the miss with only real disappointment (for me) being The Beast With A Billion Backs.

Holy thread necromancy Batman ... 8 years has to be some kind of record! :D

I have ordered all of the B5 script books and a few others, along with this Crusade volume, and never been charged import duty or VAT. I vaguely recall someone telling me that books are exempt, but couldn't put hand on heart that this is the case. I do recall, however, that there was a lot of...

There are no coincidences

I think the series has demonstrated quite well that he Narns will sell anything to anyone for any reason as long as the price is right. That being the case, I don't really see there is any need to look for other reasons for the Narn involvement.

B5 was pretty much the first TV show whose music I could happily listen to over and over without the pictures. That, for me, says everything about how good Franke's music is, as music. The fact that it also fits the action on screen so well is just genius ... so often you get one or the other.

My kids really want to see this one, and would love to see it in 3D ... problem is, I have a damaged left eye and lack stereoscopic vision. I assume that there is therefore little point in me taking them to a 3D showing? Or has the 3D technology moved on to the extent that I can happily watch...

Just to pick up on the pilot issue, and to use the same example as KoshN did ... the "pilot" of Firefly is not really a pilot at all, but a series premiere. The series had already been greenlit and this was the introductory stuff to rest of the season. In B5's case, it was a genuine Pilot, a...

My wife has read them, and enjoyed them both. I don't think they are ghostwritten, but I seem to remember Brue wrote them with someone else.

Does anyone know why the problem with overseas orders, as apparently these will not be shippable outside the USA?

It is one of the very strange facts of the universe (well ... my universe) that in spite of having seen the entire show beginning to end a number of times, and in spite of owning the entire thing on DVD, I still make it a point to watch as much of it as I can whenever it comes back on TV. Great...

TripleF, am I correct in thinking hat the B5 Scrolls site is yours? If so, the caption on this page ... http://themadgoner.com/B5/B5Scrolls/B5Scrolls.htm#Screen2_02_1 ... is incorrect as it says Deconstruction is in season 2.

This is one of those books I have been meaning to get around to reading precisely because everything I have read about it says that it isn't simple and straightforward and has a depth to it that you don't get in your standard zombie story. Would be a real shame if the movie makes no effort to...

If I can be pedantic for a moment ... whilst that was the fate of Amazing Stories or their parent company, the publisher of B5 magazine simply chose to stop publishing it, presumably because of sales levels. Titan, the publishers (in the UK at leasy) are still very much going strong.

I really can't see them putting one out on the August Bank Holiday Monday ... loads of kids and families will still be away on holiday. I wouldn't have thought that it was particularly crucial time in terms of TV ratings either for that matter, but since I am always at Greenbelt and never...

Nope ... the trailer confirms that it IS 11th April.

Apparently, the curent issue of Doctor Who magazine includes a quote from (I assume) RTD to the effect that the original plan was for all three to be shown over Christmas/New Year but that changed prior to filming and the second special is actually going out sometime in the "2nd half of 2009"...

OK ... maybe I overstated the "consensus" bit, perhaps there is a consensus that the final season(s) was/were better than 2 and 3 so the lead up to the end was pretty good if not the actual finale. As I say I dipped in and out of the show, with S3 being almost completely unwatched. More people...
