For those who signed up for the mailing, a bit of an inside update on where things stand on Babylon 5: The Lost Tales (whose production was hailed just this week in the new TV Guide under the "Cheers and Jeers" column) (and yes, we got the "cheer" part of that, wiseass)...
I'll be flying back up to Vancouver toward the end of the month to supervise the dialogue looping and to start reviewing the finished CGI shots being created by Atmosphere.
We've also designed a brand new title sequence for Babylon 5, which incorporates all of the major characters, and emphasizes the interconnectedness of the characters seen over the show. There will also be a separate set-piece placed just before the main title sequence that will tie back visually to our series finale, "Sleeping in Light," in kind of a tribute to the end of that volume and the starting of this one.
We're also finishing up the director's blogs and behind- the-scenes pieces, which will show Bruce, Tracy, Peter and our new cast members, with the former group commenting on both the future of B5 and their own memories and reflections on Babylon 5. There will also be meditations and tributes to the passing of Richard Biggs and Andreas Katsulas from their fellow cast members.
The director's blogs will follow production from script through prep and shooting...though in some cases with a bit of an unusual approach. (I can never do anything serious with a straight face.) You see, there was something innovative and new and unusual and artsy that I wanted to do with this movie, but did the studio get the majesty, the novelty, the innovativeness of that idea? No, no, of COURSE not. But by gosh you'll get a preview of it here...and the world of SF will never be the same again....
P.S. We've updated the photo collection with 5 more photos. Click here([url]http://www.babylon5scripts.com/TLT-JMS-Photos.html[/url]) to see them [/quote]
It looks like jms is also on jury duty

im especially looking forward to the behind the scenes stuff. be interesting to see what really goes on, especially in the director blogs
:)
:D aaahhh, the fine memories! Man, the last time I was this excited was when BSG was picked up as a series. I'm thinking its time to use this as an excuse to watch all 5 seasons over again.
It still makes me cry. I could hold it back for quite some time, but when B5 blew up, damn....
I don't think any other series finale can compete with it really, it's just so perfectly done.
Worf
SiL is perhaps the finest end to a tv series, ever! Yup still gets me alright, last time I saw it was about a year ago I think. Its nice that they are paying tribute to the last episode. Its also nice there will be tributes to the Doc and G'Kar. Will be a sad moment.
I simply can't wait, all the waiting and anticipation is driving me nuts :D

yeah, no kidding. I kept on having strange dreams of this big white ball, kept on asking me about what my name was and what I wanted. Figured it was a sex predator or something.
