Yeah, it's more like landfill really ... with some recycling.

Why not sign up anyway. You don't have to pay to sign up. Then you can get to know when the pictures are available.

Well, since you can register for free to go on the mailing list (which ensures you get an e-mail letting you know when the next volume is available for purchase) it doesn't actually cost anything.
Here'e where you can add your e-mail addy.
Well, let us underlings know when/if they are ever available to the general public, ok?
I just couldn't afford it.

As I write this, we have finished principal photography on "Babylon 5: The Lost Tales," coming in under budget and finishing a full day ahead of schedule.
This first DVD, entitled "Voices in the Dark," covers the same 72 hour period of time as Sheridan travels on board a Presidential Cruiser en route to Babylon 5 from Minbar for a celebration marking the 10th anniversary of the founding of the Interstellar Alliance. One part of the story follows Sheridan as he picks up an unexpected visitor on the edge of Centauri space, Prince Regent Dius Vintari, and a warning about what will come afterward delivered by the techno-mage, Galen. The other part of the story is set aboard Babylon 5, as Colonel Lochley summons a priest from Earth space to deal with a problem that may have dark supernatural overtones. The two parts of the greater story intersect at certain key plot and thematic points, so that they overlap and complement each other while telling separate, but simultaneous, stories.
The first DVD is going to require nearly 200 EFX shots, taking us all over Alliance space, and Babylon 5, which is being redesigned using the latest CGI technology. The same CGI is being used to create virtual sets a la Sin City, but on an even more detailed basis, in many cases integrating them with practical sets based on the original blueprint designs for Babylon 5.
A number of behind-the-scenes pieces were shot for inclusion on the DVD, as well as a number of original short pieces that will be filmed in February which feature glimpses into the future of Babylon 5 and her characters.
We have set-up a temporary webpage of photos from the shoot from my personal collection. These images mark the very first photos to emerge from production.

Re: JMS\'s 12/1 post
Looks like the speculation of "Sheridan on Minbar" story, "Lochley on B5" story, and (now delayed) "Garibaldi on Mars" story was essentially correct, with somewhat of an exception for the Sheridan story....which appears to start on Minbar, but ends on B5.

Re: JMS\'s 12/1 post
I don't see why being a Colonel would necessarily mean her having a need to be reposted. The whole controversy over Sinclair being appointed was that he wasn't a high ranking officer. Remember Garibaldi's comments about it still being a cushy job that carried prestige despite all the headaches that come with it. Colonels were passed over to get to him. The primary reason Sheridan was appointed was because of his talismanic value in making the Minbari feel uncomfortable. Fortunately as Hague observed, Sheridan wasn't the testosterone poisoned skipper that Clarke would have liked.
