Failed Babylon 5 Projects

Mel Gibson? No fragging way!

I used to like the guy, but went way off him after "The Passion of Christ" business.

The "Passion of the Drunk" business didn't help either, LOL.

It's interesting how many of these projects include a ship being destroyed or left abandoned under mysterious circumstances.....

1) In Crusade, Matthew Gideon's former ship, the Cerberus, was destroyed by unknown forces
2) In Legend of the Rangers, the former crew of the Liandra were seemingly betrayed and killed by unknown forces
3) In The Memory of Shadows, the brother of an Earth Force intelligence officer is aboard a ship that explodes without explanation
4) In the 2nd treatment for B5 The Motion Picture, a Whitestar is left adrift in space when the two Rangers aboard are killed/missing. In the same project, an EA ship named the Vesper is mysteriously lost when it crashes on an uncharted planet, due to unknown reasons

Ultimately, the legacy of The First Ones/The Shadows is behind each of the above.

(Ok, I'm guessing at LotR, but it's a pretty safe bet)

1) In Crusade, Matthew Gideon's former ship, the Cerberus, was destroyed by unknown forces

Yes it was Shadow tech, but it was an Earth ship, according to "End of the Line".

3) In The Memory of Shadows, the brother of an Earth Force intelligence officer is aboard a ship that explodes without explanation

Where'd you find information on this one? I've never seen anything about the story anywhere.

Yes, the technology they left behind was the Shadow's legacy. It was this tech that resulted in the hybrid going on a killing spree.

3) In The Memory of Shadows, the brother of an Earth Force intelligence officer is aboard a ship that explodes without explanation

From the site linked to in the OP.

Ah got it. I was hoping a script was floating around somewhere.

If so, I'd sure like to know about it too. For that matter, I'm uncertain where the OP is getting that info.
