Babylon 5 – The Lost Tales

[quote]--And there’s something else…WB came to him as they do periodically wanting to do something with B5. They asked if he wanted to do a feature film but JMS declined mainly because he can’t yet picture structuring a B5 movie “…as long as Andreas and Rick insist on staying dead.” Maybe in a year or two he’ll be able to but right now he can’t do something big. What JMS suggested was a bunch of short films—little mini-movies, an anthology show set in the Babylon 5 universe. They said, “Okay.” There’s a network already interested in carrying them but they’re also planned for direct to DVD. This will be “Babylon 5 – The Lost Tales", a lot of small stories that never made it into the series that he’s rediscovered notes for. And JMS wants no interference, complete creative support – in writing. They said, “Okay.” And JMS wants to direct them. They said, “Okay.” The first will be three individual stories about three of the main characters (to be determined). The plan is to shoot in September, post-production Oct.-Dec. and they’ll probably come out the second quarter of 2007. [/quote]

As a wise man once said.. once bitten, twice shy,.. i'll believe it when i'm actually watching it..
could be good though, if its for real.
[B]After Legend of the Rangers, I'm not holding out much hope. [/B][/QUOTE]
I think the biggest problem of Rangers was that it didn't have a series.
the way it is now, there is a pilot, with all the not-working ideas, that would have been scraped in the consecutive episodes...
I actually like Rangers, and kinda can forgive the "chick punches the air and makes the ship fire" sequences, cause, as idea, it is kinda neat, though it doesn't work in a TV/Movie environment. If you compare it with the original cut of The Gathering, i think Rangers is superior.
If this is even semi legit I'm thrilled. It has been time for something brand new in the B5 universe for a while now. :)
However, like the rest of you I'm not ready to hold by breath yet. ;)

Greenlit.
I believe it is time fr another sci fi series to enter the fold. BSG has done a great job in saving the whole genre really, and with that success another B5 venture would do very well.
As I've said many times before if they can make that pile of crap Andromeda there should be some hope for The Lost Tales. Maybe they will allow JMS to spring board to a movie in a few years? Who knows....
