  • shakiroz has it exactly right. It's impossible to have a Star Trek movie where Kirk or Spock or Bones are played by anyone other than the original actors, and in which their characters play anything other than starring lead roles which are centra…
  • While the idea of a Babylon 5 big screen movie has been something that we fans have long hoped for, I certainly hope all involved in the project have learned their lessons about what it is the Babylon 5 fans want. Which is to have a *Babylon 5* m…
  • So, after all the speculation, what's the latest we know about this new secret project? :) Even though this particular project didn't concern it, I still think Babylon 5: Into the Fire will be made. We already have the video, the story, the ge…
  • I sure hope it's Babylon 5: Into the Fire. It's just a matter of time, after all. :) I hope it is not some sort of new series related to Babylon 5, as there is no way it will be of the quality level of Babylon 5. That's already been shown wit…
  • Well, the word is that the 3rd season DVD set should be shipping out in about 2 weeks or so. Can't wait till the box arrives! :)
  • The other nice thing about this RPG is that it's being heavily supported by Mongoose. With the first B5 RPG, there wasn't all that much material supplied. But this new RPG already has 3 or 4 supplements listed at the link above for pre-order, in…
  • Yeah, the cover does look great, doesn't it? This may be my favorite Babylon 5 DVD set box cover so far. :)
  • rhett: I've seen some sample pages from the core rulebook, and they look *really* nice. The whole hardback core rulebook is full color throughout the book, no cheap black and white stuff. The supplements are also in full color. The main rule…
  • rhett: If you think that's bad, well the first season set was much worse in regards to the average number of damaged disks per sealed set box sent from WB. :) This is why the B5 Shop had to open the second season sets and check each disk. The r…
  • Konrad: They opened and checked the disks to make sure they weren't damaged for a very good reason. The first season set of Babylon 5 DVD's had a very nasty tendency to arrive with disks that had slipped free of their center retaining mechanisms…
  • I have my set! The cover looks great! :) All disks arrived safe and sound due to the B5 Shop's careful packing of foam by hand between each individual disk to ensure they couldn't be jarred loose and scratched. Now that's what I call a professio…
  • You're quite welcome, Argone. :) I have bought several B5 items from the Babylon 5 Shop before, and can highly recommend them for their honesty and excellent service over the years.
  • samuelk: Granted, The Gathering might not have had the kind of subtle refinement that we have come to expect of the regular season episodes. But I think it was far, far better than this most recent movie. Let's put it this way, a movie has t…
  • Even taking into account the fact that the styles are different, I came away with the definite feeling that both Crusade and especially this most recent movie were simply not up to the same quality standards as Babylon 5 has. It was almost like w…
  • I'll say it straight up, guys. I couldn't even get past the first couple minutes. It came off as so... artificial. I think I can deliver lines better than that. I literally couldn't stand to watch it. At least with Crusade (which I *don't* li…
  • Those look great, Alpha-1. [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/smile.gif[/img] Are all those starfury wing art designs actually used by various pilots stationed at Babylon 5 (not counting Black Omega's symbol, of course [img]http://216.15.145…
  • Jack, I look at it this way. As unreasonable as some people might be, there is simply too much value contained in the B5:ItF assets for them to not be used. Sooner or later, someone is going to want the money spent on the project to be at least …
  • I have to say that I'm impressed with the fine work that has been done on the graphics. [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/smile.gif[/img] I hope the various ships' performance, systems, sub-systems, ammo and fuel limitations, etc. will be mo…
  • Hehe, you post them so often, I assumed you were on the team. [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/smile.gif[/img] Who on the board is making IFH?
  • Oh, that's right, you're doing IFH, correct? Well, it's quite likely whoever is doing that mod is one of the B5:ItF fans. [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/smile.gif[/img]
  • Very nice, Alpha! [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/smile.gif[/img] The first ever B5 FPS mod, should be cool. Brought to you by the B5:ItF fans, of course. [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/wink.gif[/img]
  • Babylon 5: Online. Hmmm, intriguing. *sigh* But they'd probably just mess it up, like happens with every other MMORPG that gets made to appeal to the lowest common denominator of the simple-minded masses. [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/s…
  • So, now that the B5 DVD set is tearing up the sales charts, how soon till B5:ItF gets completed? [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/cool.gif[/img] hehe A Happy Thanksgiving to everyone!
  • May you all have a very merry Christmas this year! [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/smile.gif[/img] [This message has been edited by Dunedain (edited 12-24-2002).]
  • Let's hope that is not the case. Especially as the video footage would be a real pain to have to reshoot. [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/smile.gif[/img]
  • Well, if that is the case, perhaps at least some of them can get on the dev team to finish the game with whatever company gets the B5 computer game license and assets to complete B5:ItF. [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/smile.gif[/img]
  • Falcon1: I agree, this opportunity must be seized for all it's worth. The Sector 14 folks hopefully will get a hold of WB and see what they can make happen when they point out they have the potential to finish a first class Babylon 5 combat sim …
  • Well, we'll just have to wait and see about that. But certainly the news of the Babylon 5 DVD set selling at an incredible rate boosts our chances significantly. On to victory! [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/smile.gif[/img]
  • I'm not saying WB will buy the B5:ItF assets from Sierra themselves, but they may be able to help facilitate Sector 14 hooking up with the right people to get enough financial backing to get those assets. There is no faster or better way to get a …
  • samuelk: Perhaps you're not understanding. What I'm talking about has nothing to do with WB giving Sierra another B5 license, no one in their right mind would give them a license for anything after their recent conduct. I'm talking about buying…
