Re: \"Convictions\" question--spoilers ahead! Hmmm. It seems like there was a long pause between he left Medlab and when he got trapped in the lift, so I wouldn't call that "just" talking to him. However, maybe Delenn's perception of time was momentarily warped by the joy at seeing Lennier...

One thing that puzzles me: if the Vorlons didn't manipulate the Centauri, then wouldn't Londo have seen Kosh for what he truly looked like, instead of nothing at all? That he saw *nothing* seems to imply that Kosh was doing *something* to his perception, even it was simply that he was too lazy...

Re: \"Divided Loyalties\" Yes, it is. Can't remember which one off the top of my head, but in this one, she arrives on-station in a plain old human transport. While lying down. Unconscious. And rather badly beat up. I think she'd prefer her entrance via the Vorlon transport, too :) --mcn

LOL saw that one already, how dare you mix Chris Franke's music up with Evan Chan's!!! I mean, come ON!!! Anyway, I only took German for a few years regardless, and was never that good at it. I'm still surprised I could remember it was called an umlaut :) But hey, I like pretending I can...

So I got the literal translation wrong. Spoot. Gimme a break, it's been at *least* 4 years since I've taken German :~) Cheers, --mcn

Just FYI: Channe is right. Über is a german word that means "super", and in German grammar, can and is often used as a prefix to label something as "super". ( Übermensch translates literally into "superman", although the general meaning is more of what Kribu said.) The umlaut is written as two...

GKarsEye: I don't doubt it. I wasn't arguing whether story-wise it had too much or too little tie to B5. I also agree that we can't decide such things having seen so little of the story. My only point was that *because* of the said ties, however deep they would end up being, the viewers would be...

KoshN: I believe you misinterpreted what I was saying (which I'm not surprised at, given the weary state I wrote that in). First of all, I liked Crusade. I thought it showed considerable potential as a series (if there was a way to mute the music, at least). Second, I personally wouldn't have...

(Note: Please excuse me if the above post doesn't make much sense; it made perfect sense when I thought of it, but lack of sleep and food kinda jumbled a few things. Hopefully I got my point across tho.... :~) Cheers, -mcn

Time to jump into the fray once again with my meager 2 cents... The general sense I get from all the posts here is that there is one prevailing feeling, hidden slightly submerged: that LotR is "more B5", for lack of a better way of phrasing it. We're all saying, "Look, The Gathering was bad...

Y'know, I knew the B5 music was great, but I never realized exactly *how* great it was until I just listened to it by itself...easily the best music for any Sci-Fi series *ever*, probably any TV series period... Question: did the B5 music ever win any awards? I sure hope it did... I still...

Thank you, A Call to Arms. The title slipped my mind for a moment there... Frankly, I don't think that counts as a pilot, given the considerably different cast members. ACtA was meant as a B5 telemovie to lead into Crusade, but since a pilot episode is meant (more or less) to give an example of...

It occured to me that with all the negative feelings propagating about bad reviews and whatnot, that what the Rangers Discussion section needs is a big healthy dose of cheer. So I plaster you all thus...

As for pilots being good/bad relative to the series, I think someone in another thread already mentioned "The Gathering".... :) An interesting side thought, though: Crusade never really had a pilot, did it? Unless you count the B5 telemovie that led into it, which I wouldn't. So given, that...
