    OK, so I'm just going to cross my fingers and hope for the best then. :~) Thanks! --mcn

    Q. about Canada B5 S1 DVD...

    OK, so that's one question down. Thanks Lennier. However, what about what my coworker said about some of the Canadian DVDs being different? Is this true? And if so, does it apply to the S1 boxed set as well? Thx, --mcn

    Q. about Canada B5 S1 DVD...

    To anyone who can answer (i.e. JoeD): OK, so I finally scraped up enough money to buy the Season 1 boxed set and ordered it last night. However, I ordered it from Total Action Universe without thinking about whether it'll be region 1, region 2, etc., and I'm fairly certain my DVD player only...

    Mine's in now. 749 words. *whew!* Um, Antony: I just copy-and-pasted it right into the submission box. Is that ok? Or should we be e-mailing them? --mcn

    Writers for season one guide

    Um, just on one tiny note, The Lurker's Guide *does* have detailed plot synopses...at least, last time I checked. You just have to know how to get to them, but they're pretty detailed (almost down to line-by-line). Altho everything else you describe sounds great, plus it'd be nice to have it all...

    Quick question re. preordering through Amazon.com

    Hey all, quick question, and I'm only asking here 'cause I couldnt' find the answer on their site: When you pre-order the B5 DVD through Amazon, will they take out the money immediately, or do they wait until they ship it to you? I know some places will do the latter, but I didn't know if...

    Want Crusade Back? Please Sign Petition.

    Um, question...given what Sci-Fi did to Rangers, do we *really* want them resurrecting Crusade? :~ Just a thought... Cheers, --mcn

    A wimamp vis plugin and hyperspace

    Both shots are very cool, I agree. But even without using those two, I think just the look in general could be improved if they made the jumppoint effect procedurally generated. I mean, I know most people can't tell, but for computer graphics guys like me, it's kinda glaring when you can tell...

    sci-fi and their schedule

    Y'know, at first viewing (just to drag this on even further I didn't like the CGI much in TLaDiS, but after watching it a few more times I started noticing that, on its own, it actually looked pretty damned good for a TV movie. I think what threw me the first time was that it didn't match the...

    Jumpgates ARE coloured!!

    Agree with KoshN: like the new textures, just wish they had matched the color. Oh well. And I had forgotten about that particular Crusade episode, thanks. So I guess it *is* cannon then. *shrugs* Oh well. It makes more sense to me for each ship to open their own jumppoint, but since this has...

    Random notes from the archives....

    Well, there's been no real discussion in this thread, and given how every once in a while things get fired up and such about "well, here's what Crusade was about"/"no, actually jms was intending to go off in a different direction by the end of season 1"/etc....well, in all that, I hadn't seen...

    Jumpgates ARE coloured!!

    Yes, I'll grant you that most of our jumpgate cannon tech knowledge is based on EA ships. However, compared to something like accuracy of the jumppoint location, it would seem that the jumppoint effect being confined to a very close proximity around the ship would be a rather consistent, er...

    Jumpgates ARE coloured!!

    Except for, as I pointed out, the generally-accepted precedence set by B5 and the comments from jms relating to the very concept. The only thing that *does* track is, as I also pointed out, the single, sole example in Crusade. At least, as far as I can recall. It also does not explain the Hand...

    Jumpgates ARE coloured!!

    Having recently rewatched the movie, I noticed something else I hadn't before... When the Valen and the Liandra first jump out of hyperspace, the Valen creates its *own* jumppoint (rather than using a gate), but we cannot see another jumppoint for the Liandra. B5 established, via examples and...
