Babylon 5

Rogue TraderRogue Trader Somebody stop him...
Anyone watch it? It's a sci-fi drama on Sci-fi channel that makes star trek TNG look like star trek. It starrs bruce boxlieghter. (You may remember from "Tron") I'v watched it from the first episode and I have been hooked ever since.
If you get the Sci-Fi network and want to watch it, they are showing all of the episodes in order from the begining at 5:00 on weekdays. Check it out!

    Never heard of it, sounds like some cheap porno flick

    I'd watch it, but I don't see how a space station can be interesting. It doesn't go anywhere! What is so fun about a space station? "Whoopdeedoo! Look at that alien ship! Oh, nevermind, it's just passing by!"

    And why don't they ahve artificial gravity? It's 2258! They should have artificial gravity. what a waste of effort, trying to rotate a station.

    And what's with these "volrons?" Why don't they speak in SENTENCES! Come on! It's not that hard!

    And what is up with this hole in sanclair's mind? How the hell will that be carried through the show? Woohoo, he blacked out in a high-g manuver. BORING.

    The Mimbari are stupid. What is with that bone on their head? It's so stupid. JMS should have made better looking aliens with different foreheads, like Star Trek!

    And the music is terrible! It's so synthy and ugly.

    The graphics are also bad.

    And WHY was that Soulkeeper ship flying towards thge station? Shouldn't it stop after exiting the hyperspace gate? Or did it just magically kept on moving? Ships always stop when they run out of fuel! That's how it is in star trek!

    What a waste of time...
  • Yea I heared the "Story arc" is total crap. I mean there can't logivaly be 3 "the ones".
    I mean by defenition there can only be one "the one".

    Plus any show that had its SFX done on Amigas can't b any good.

    Hmm...... we'll set it somewhere where the odds are against the people inhabiting the station. We'll have a snake-hole through which all the aliens will come through and visit the station. Then we can base the thing around a couple of major wars! Brilliance itself.... glad us Sun-Voyage people came up with it first.... tanta(Para)mount to genius.

    Yeah and lets start the first couple of series with absolutley no plot, a couple of space anamoley eps will do, no body going anywhere, a few total memory lose eps... oh and throw in a few alternate universe ones aswell. And then about half way through lets suddenly develop a plot out of nowhere that bears no relation to that washed up Babylon thing. And for the grand finale, we'll have a nice moral of the story 'its not nice to fight' thing going.

    Obviously, someone stupid enough to think they can compete with Star Trek. Noone can compete with Star Trek! It's too realistic and accurate!

You see, i think what you really are afraid of is me. Me and my kind, the Brotherhood of Mutants. Oh, it's not so suprising really, mankind has always feared what it doesnt understand. Well, dont fear god senator, and certainly dont fear me... not anymore."

    Jesus Christ, not that piece of crap? :rolleyes:

    Come on, like Warble said, the ships don't even have shields, how rubbish is that? Maybe it was to save money on their special effects, but they're crap anyway, I could do better with a biro and a pad of A4 paper!

    B5 sucks compared to Voyager...
