    Favourite B5 Episode......and Why?

    Favourites could be judged by your most watched epsiode. I think my most watched episode could be "The Long Twilight Struggle". Say it is, then it is for these reasons:- It's a nice contained and dramatic story, with a clear beginning, middle and end. It has the Centauri 'cheating' tacitc and...

    EpDis: The Illusion Of Truth

    I gave this a C. Not terribly convincing Sheridan and Delenn would fall for this given their run-in's with the press and beaurocracy before. I mean, as the viewer I saw through this straight away on the first viewing. Not a great deal of fun to watch again and again.

    Season 5 - Dull?

    I found Lochley to be a bit wooden - worthy of being in Star Trek. Could be the acting as much as the character. (I also notice she had a lot of shouty scenes, but couldn't shout convincingly - like she hadn't done a lot of shouting but should've - and came across weaker than the script). But...

    Favourite B5 Episode......and Why?

    Certainly B5's greatest. Just look at the competition it beat for the Hugo award! Watched it too many times to really appreciate it now I think...

    Favourite Line(s) from any Episode of B5

    G'Kar is clearly JMS' philosophical voice as such comes out with loads. I tried using his definition of what god is to his Narn followers (and analysis) on some fundies. But I do love that explanation. Not too surprisingly, it didn't work!

    Favourite B5 Character........and Why?

    Really? Some people like Grail? I'm curious, why? It was spiritual true, the story was no better (worse) than your average Star Trek episode. For outsiders who are not "sad" enough to be into Sci-Fi, this just looks like a poor mans ST. Their problem I know, but it's also yours when WB don't...

    Favourite B5 Character........and Why?

    Of course, but it's too easy to forget all about Grail... the typical kind of episode that allows many to lose patience with B5 before it's had a chance to shine. Should be deleted and replaced with a starscape and harmonious chords.

    Favourite Line(s) from any Episode of B5

    "If you can't say what you mean, you can never mean what you say". Lovely. I used to use some variation of that wordplay myself long before B5, seeing as I always speak my mind, (diplomacy is for people who can't handle the truth and tact is for people who can't accept who they are. If you...

    Season 5 - Dull?

    Just been watching s5 for the 4th time and it's better than I gave credit. Ok, it's just not worthy of being called 'B5' in some places and the Byron story is still crap (part of B5's addiction is having characters you care about. I care for none of Byron's lot), but all the Centauri and Narn...

    Favourite B5 Character........and Why?

    If you haven't see Tron, do so! It's puts existence into excellent perspective. It's also pretty headfcuky to get used to a world of grey only to be returned to a world of colour at the end, or when you've finished watching the film. Makes you appreciate it. ;) btw, you know Peter Jurasik is...

    Favourite B5 Episode......and Why?

    Aye. I couldn't pick a favourite, I really couldn't. Probably about 4 pivotal ones per series. B5 isn't about a singular episode, they all feed off one another.

    Love him as Tron too. ;)

    Favourite B5 Character........and Why?

    Sheridan. Cos he's the ONE. He's the ONE who don't take no sheeet. He's the ONE who sorts everyONE out, including the first ONEs. The keystONE character. The ONE who makes a stand against anyONE dumb enough to be a d!ck infrtont of him pleb, psicop, firstONE alike. Double 'ard b'stard military...

    Favourite musical score of B5?

    Ah, this CD I don't have but these appear to be the only tracks on here that would be new to me. Worth getting then? Forgot the SiL B5 destruction music! How could I!? Edit: btw, someone else took on the B5 video game as an private internet collaboration (free). Downloaded it a while back...

    Favourite musical score of B5?

    This doesn't seem to get a mention, but I think it should. Some of the music is superb and very apt. The music almost all the way through The Long Twilight Struggle really stands out for me, especially the battle sequences. As does Severed Dreams. Anyone ever notice the music for the Open Air...

    EpDis: Falling Toward Apotheosis

    My only question is, where do you lot get 'Ulkesh' from?! :s Pat Tallman = terrible actor a lot of the time. No timing either. But she makes up for it with that stare and those black lenses she gives - Top. Anyway good episode. Pleased that we get to see what Vorlons really look like and not...

    Crusade & Legends of the Rangers-I've Asked This Before

    I'd have thought the chances of that are infinitely less than 1.

    EpDis: The Long Night

    ^ And Ericsson's prize for self-sacrifice? To come back as Malcolm's dad! :D Great episode this. One of my favourites. The plotting to bring down the Emperor is so Roman Empire-esq. :) And Wortham Krimmer I thought was superb throughout. One of the best actors of B5, IMO. Great job of this...

    EpDis: Into The Fire

    I think the only thing missing from this episode, was a private scene where Lorien turns to the Shadows and the Vorlons and says something like "Yep, that worked perfectly. We made them understand for themselves, by themselves. Right, on to the next Galaxy...!" ;) I mean, c'mon. 2 races who...
