    EpDis: Phoenix Rising

    I think the scene was around this episode where we learn that Byron and Bester used to be partners in Psi Corps.

    EpDis: Secrets Of The Soul

    Intentional to the story, to show that the telepaths in this group have dropped all barriers. Remember, the members of this group don't even attempt to block out thoughts of others (see the scene where Garibaldi walks in and Byron already knows everything he's about to say). Why would there...

    EpDis: The Deconstruction Of Falling Stars

    As jms said, "And what if you, say, interfered substantially with the mass of the sun by, say, causing a series of jump points to open up *inside* the sun across several days?"

    V... Season 2 (Spoilers WELCOME)

    Yeah Warners makes some odd decisions. They're one of the few companies that won't run full episodes on hulu, instead just putting in random clips from each episode. I missed the first episode of the Mentalist this season because of a DVR glitch and I had to wait until I could find someone...

    A question for warhammer 40k: dawn of war: dark crusade?

    It's a spam-bot that adds in a link later. I noticed a link to something called "leanspa" added to the signature of that other thread.

    Scripts Vol. 15 question

    Well his argument was "what if that future happened because I listened to Delenn's warning?" The Minbari civil war had already been resolved in season 4 though. In the outline, the Grey Council isn't even broken until season 5. Yep, the one he did was The Real Ghostbusters, "Xmas Marks the...

    Scripts Vol. 15 question

    Yeah I always thought that Delenn was referring to the ending of Sheridan's life as well. She didn't want to lose him because he only had a couple of years left, so she tries to change that by telling Sheridan not to go to Z'ha'dum. It was Sheridan who decided it had something to do with...

    Bye-bye IFC

    IFC wasn't showing commercials during the movie but they still had sponsors. Usually you would have trailers with an attached ad, e.g. "Target presents..." and a commercial right before the programming: "tonight's movie brought to you by Acura, watch this 2 minute presentation."

    More B5 on the way?

    I can't imagine Joe taking any job where he was just approving stuff and not writing. All he does is write. The man can't not write. He mentioned before in interviews how when he went on his one vacation and his wife told him to take a break from writing that he ended up buying a spiral...

    More B5 on the way?

    Sort of. What he said was: and So what I think he was referring to was there was always going to be a character connected to the Shadows, but moving Sinclair off the board allowed him to make the Captain of Bablyon 5 have that connection without making every single plot point run through...

    More B5 on the way?

    What it is is that television is not just about story, it's about the visual aspects as well. This is something that makes scriptwriting very different from prose. When writing a script, one thinks about the budget and will skip over scenes that would have helped the story. You start dropping...

    More B5 on the way?

    This is what his recent facebook post where the "ask after April" quote came from said: Budget and writing aren't separate issues though. One writes scripts to the budget given, which can lead to a lot of creative compromises.

    More B5 on the way?

    This is why the whole budget/creative control issue comes into play, because Joe looked back at these projects and realized they didn't live up to the B5 legacy. I think that a pilot will be made right around then. Spring is the time that the networks are placing their show orders.

    Superman: Earth One

    I love Ninja Assassin, but I think it's also a movie you have to be in the right mindset for. FYI, his Spider-Man run started before Jeremiah. Dream Police was a good one-shot comic that he did after IMO.

    Forbidden Planet?

    Was reading the Crusade script book today and noticed this in one of the early promotional scripts for the series, which implies that at least one group of the First Ones built the Great Machine: [reformatted a bit from script form:]

    New FX/Old Show

    I'm not angry at all. However you keep mentioning your strange perception that I'm a believer in the "myth of Joe", and if you still interpret it that way, *quote me* so I can know what it is you are referring to, because I seriously have *no clue* what it is you keep seeing. Accepted. Really...

    New FX/Old Show

    Really? Quote me one message where I did. And since we're on the subject since you for some reason are stuck on derailing this thread, crashing it in to a cliff, and setting it on fire instead of actually reading what I wrote: I don't think I've ever even *THOUGHT* this so much as said it even...

    New FX/Old Show

    Never said it. All I said was that I didn't agree with the premise that the two shows were completely collapsed into each other. This had nothing to do with the subject of Joe's control when I first stated it. That's why there are two separate paragraphs in the "I don't follow" and "I don't...

    New FX/Old Show

    My argument was about the specifics of the sequel. I don't think you'll find any message where I said "Joe had total and absolute control of the entire series from day one." Saying "I still don't follow what control you think Joe didn't have" is not such, it's a statement of curiosity because I...

    There are three paragraphs on the empire building plot involving Sinclair and Delenn's son for the sequel in the 10-page outline, some quoted here: The empire building plot is referenced in the rangers treatment: The plot for Sheridan and Delenn's son is in the season five notes: That...
