I’m looking forward to this more than any SF franchise movie of the last decade.

Thanks to your generosity, we were able to upgrade our service plan. Hopefully this will help us address some of our performance issues.

What about Babylons 1-4?Report
From TFA:
Well, I’m not sure that we need necessarily have the Centauris distinguished strictly by their sideways Mohawks and outrageous quasi-Teutonic accents. Maybe be a little more elaborate with the makeup and less obvious with the voices.
More important, given that all the fanboys already know jung gur Ibeybaf ernyyl ner naq jung gur Funqbjf ernyyl ner, that kinda starts the trick out with the cat having already escaped from the bag, doesn’t it?Report
My understanding is that the hair thing was a complete accident when the actor playing Londo was halfway through hair-and-makeup and somebody saw him and went, “That’s what we want!”
I have fond memories of B5 but mostly because it came in a relative drought for halfway decent TV sci-fi. I like the defined-story-of-fixed-duration concept as opposed to the standard never-ending story that nevertheless ends for some combination of low ratings and writer fatigue. Much more satisfying. But B5 was really a pretty good story with a wrapper of almost embarrassing goofiness.Report
Well, I’m looking forward to it as much as any SF franchise movie of the last decade.Report
I’m interested!Report
Yay! Awesome news!
By the way, are we continuing with the Babylon 5 book club?Report
I will be able to participate again in March, after the election.Report
In that case I’ll probably take on some more of the recaps and send them to Jaybird.
Good luck with the campaign!Report
Very interesting.Report
