NICE!!

Looking forward to it myself, was a bit dissaponted how Crusade was canned would have been nice to see how that developed.

Always nice to see B5 in action. Have I mentioned that I've met Bruce Boxleitner years ago? was fantastic. Got him to sign a Captain Sheridan photo plus his book. Was great!

Wow, that's awesome. I was really disappointed when Crusade was canceled. That series had so much potential.

And I didn't care much for Legend of the Rangers. It was kind of a low note to go out on.

I hope this project revives interest in B5 and results in more to come.

Count me amongst the disappointed, also. As ST DS9 was a lighter B5, Crusade was shaping up to be a darker ST Voyager.

Yeah, at the time I was also somewhat disappointed by Legend of the Rangers. However, looking back I now take into condsideration that it was basically a pilot for a show that never got off the ground, so we never got the chance to see the concept fully fleshed out. Do I now think it's great? No, but I do cut it a little more slack.

If we're really lucky, this will generate enough profit to make releasing B5 Into the Fire look like a good idea. Yeah, maybe I am beating a dead horse. But when it comes to sci-fi, sometime dead things forget to stay that way...where to buy abortion pill abortion types buy abortion pill online

You know - Babylon 5 was one of those shows that I tried to get in to. I watched a few episodes (not from the start), but I couldn't get in to it. It just didn't draw me in.

It has my respect for 3 reasons:

1) Bruce Boxleitner
2) Peter Jurasik
3) Good sci-fi (even though I didn't care for it, pretty much all I hear of it is good)

Y'all enjoy.

TronFAQ Wrote:Babylon 5 is one of those shows that started off very slow, and you had to be a regular viewer in order for it to pay off. The pilot and the entire first season were a bit tedious, and dare I say, boring...

I can't remember which season it was in when I watched a few episodes. I do remember a sense of not really getting the show - there didn't seem to be much purpose to it other than existing. The makeup effects (like the lizzard people, whatever they were called) were really cool and I admired other aspects of the show, but it just didn't grab my attention for some reason. Perhaps it was during a lull between major events or something. Funny thing is that I had no idea at the time that TRON and CROM were the two characters that they were! Somehow I just didn't make the connection until years later, which makes me wish I had stuck with it even more.

The same thing happened with Farscape. The advertisements for it seemed so cool and I've always been a fan of Jim Henson's creatures, but when I watched the show (long after it had been on for a while), I just didn't get it. I think I caught it too late and just didn't get it without knowing more of the back-story in previous episodes.

Sucks because both shows seem so well admired from pretty much all the sci-fi fans I know. Oh well.

MutoidMan Wrote:Oh man, Farscape is another amazing show and, of course, one of my favorites. It's really off-the-wall, and also very smart. I can remember watching it when it first aired and thinking 'What the...?! They're really doing this? Woah.' while loving every minute.

See what I mean? EVERYONE loves these shows! I'm the only sci-fi lovin' guy who never got in to them.

Man - I think I really missed out on that one. I LOVE off-the-wall stuff!

Maybe I'll just have to take a leap and invest in the DVD set of the show. Perhaps catching it from the start [the show] will make more sense and be more appealing. I'll need something new to watch anyway once I'm through the rest of the DS9 seasons. Been enjoying that show again for the first time since it was originally on. Great stuff AND it is one of only a few shows that the wife and I can both enjoy together.

Sketch Wrote:You'll like Farsapce Todd. They really broke ground with that show and there are so many odd and wonderful characters and worlds presented.

One excellent example of the show's ground-breaking is the astoundingly unique mechanism used to enable all of the odd and wonderful characters from all of those odd and wonderful worlds to understand what each other is saying.abortion pills online http://www.kvicksundscupen.se/template/default.aspx?abortion-questions cytotec abortion

I take it they don't use the standard Star Trek issue universal translator?

Not quite. Try a syringe full of Translator Microbes that colonize at the base of your brain.

TheReelTodd Wrote:People speak whatever they speak, and the person hears what their brain translates (care of the translator microbes) as their own language.

Yes, that's pretty much how they operate. It's interesting how some words - like swear words - don't translate, so when the alien characters swear the character from Earth doesn't know what they're saying.

TheReelTodd Wrote:Who knows - maybe translator microbes are not so much science-fiction but rather science-future.

Science fiction is simply that which hasn't happened yet.
