Future B5 DVD sets: Predictions

I have consulted with several Centuri prophettesses, and have heard the following predictions for the designs of the box sets of the next four seasons of Babylon 5.

First of all, the color schemes for the next four sets are as follows:
Season 2: Orange
Season 3: Yellow
Season 4: Green
Season 5: Blue

The Prophetesses also reported that it is possible that each set will have a different race's fleet on the cover, but this was a bit foggy.

Anyway, what is your opinion on these prophicies? Was I fooled by a bunch of normal bald women with good logic skills? If so, what reasoning did these nonexistant bald women use?

First correct anwser gets a pattented NoPrize™!

    Hmm interesting. Will we have fleets of Llort Ambulances on any of the covers? *Falcon1 runs away thinking he's started a Warleader thread* [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/biggrin.gif[/img]

    Don't know about bald women, but I had the same idea right after seeing the season 1 design concerning the colours. When discussing it with other German fans, we eventually discarded the idea as not having a high probability because it would have meant that someone at Warners would have really put thought into it. ... Maybe we were wrong (too much cynicism doesn't help in most cases).

    I'd think Season 3 would be purple or green and season for would be blue.

    Basis:
    Season 3: most of the shadow development - and they have purple ships. Or vorlons and green.

    Season 4: Return to earth - ie Blue.

    I don't think I'll comment on the other years - not sure what I'd choose...

    why not? these are the colors from the babylon stations 1-5 [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/smile.gif[/img] and it would be logic to make it this way i think

    Yeah, what about purple? (Although GRRRREEEEEEEN is much better)

    When B5 is on Irish tv they have to change the colour of the Station to Green! [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/biggrin.gif[/img]

    Yes, but is someone at WB likely to think that way?

    Man, I just had a flash back to this disucssion on the boards about three years ago. Anyone else remember?

    The station actually IS blue.

    I thought it was blue but the light from the nebula made it look purple.

    Blue!
  • SanfamSanfam I like clocks.
    Wasn't it the other way around? :P

    I barely remember this discussion, but I do remember it hapenning. :-)

    There was some neat stuff, back in the day!

    I don't remember either, but I figured the best thing to do was to look for myself.

    The official textures used on the station can be found at [url="http://www.starshipmodeler.com"]Starship Modeler[/url]. So grabbed the station texture, loaded it Paint Shop Pro and had a look at the RGB values of the different allegedly blue/purple colored panels.

    There are 3 or 4 different shades of panels in the textures. All of the panels have a high blue value around 140 or so.

    They also all have a red value of between 49 and 99. This would suggest that they're purple.

    But the green value is usually very close to the red value (between 50 and 99) but a [i]tiny[/i] bit less.

    The red and green values basically change the shade of blue. There is a TINY little bit of extra red, but not enough to consider the color to be purple.

    So the station textures are blue. Three cheers for doing-it-yourself. [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/smile.gif[/img]

    Pretty good guess
  • David of MacDavid of Mac Elite Ranger Ca
    God, I was so damned off, it's not even funny. I don't think I could've guessed alternating warm and cool colors, and I really thought each race would get their ships as the centerpiece of a box.

    I remove my hat from the predictive ring.
