B5 Blasts Back
|
Want to catch a glimpse of the resurrected Babylon 5? You're in luck. A trailer has just materialised for Babylon 5: Lost Tales, the first direct-to-DVD return to J Michael Straczynski's sprawling cosmic saga. Set in 2272, the first chapter is titled "Voices in the Dark" and presents two linked storylines: Sheridan makes a presidential return to Babylon 5 and becomes embroiled with the Centauri Prince Regent, while Colonel - formerly Captain - Lochley ends up entangled with a seemingly supernatural phenomenon. Head to Babylon 5: Lost Tales. |
Glad to hear B5 is making a return. When it was good, it was very very good.

I agree with Darth Hoob. B5 at its best was as good as TV science fiction gets.

Deep sigh.
When it was good, it was very, very good though.
Here's hoping...

Bad idea, and i bet the CGI is as bad and fake as ever.
Much prefered DS9 which was well made, well written, dark, gritty, has fantastic special effects and pounded B5 in the ratings every week.

Babylon 5 was groundbreaking. who cares if the effects now seem dire, and some writing was sloppy, the show had passion , and heart - and it introduced the yanks to Continuity , a show that progressed forward week by week. witout B5 we wouldnt have shows like Lost, Heroes , 24 etc.
I am Very much looking forward to this release - Welcome Back Bruce and Tracy - although i do agree about Ivanova - bring her Back, and jerry Doyle , hell bring em all back, Except the Recently deceased of course.
After watching this trailer it makes me want to pull out all my old B5 DVDs and watch em all over.
B5 rules
