One of the remastered eps has the entire ending cut as well. Can't remember which one right now.
Babylon 5
- Thread starter Kail
- Start date
So basically, fix all the errors.
Those errors have been fixed on Tubi, Roku Channel, and iTunes. They're still present on Amazon and Vudu. https://b5remasterissues.wordpress.com/
Errors are canon.
You #uck with Canon, and DA Vinchi code bullshit will chase you into an early grave.

From what I recall, I really enjoyed the Centauri trilogy. I didn't read the other B5 novels, but the Centauri trilogy read like it could've been filmed.
I describe it as a novelization of just the Centauri plotlines of seasons six through twenty.
The Odd Couple, starring Vir and Gaylen.
From The Hollywood Reporter:
[...] Warner Bros. Animation and Warner Bros. Discovery Home Entertainment are plotting a summer release for the new animated feature.
What kind of release? Theatrical (extremely unikely)? Streaming? Physical media?
Babylon 5: The Road Home will continue the story he started in the 1990s, with the log line stating, “Travel across the galaxy with John Sheridan as he unexpectedly finds himself transported through multiple timelines and alternate realities in a quest to find his way back home. Along the way he reunites with some familiar faces, while discovering cosmic new revelations about the history, purpose, and meaning of the Universe.”
This does not fill me with hope or anticipation, but who knows.

Oh, hey, this is the first time Christian and Scoggins have been in the same episode/movie. And, IIRC, it's only the second time Ivanova and Lochley were in the same anything.
Here's the released cast list, first returning actors, then new actors:
Here's the released cast list, first returning actors, then new actors:
John Sheridan: Bruce Boxleitner
Susan Ivanova: Claudia Christian
Londo Mollari: Peter Jurasik
Lennier: Bill Mumy
Elizabeth Lochley: Tracy Scoggins
Lyta Alexander: Patricia Tallman
Jeffrey Sinclair/Zathras: Paul Guyet
Michael Garibaldi: Anthony Hansen
Stephen Franklin: Phil LaMarr
Reporter/Computer Voice: Mara Junot
David Sheridan: Piotr Michael
G'Kar: Andrew Morgado
Delenn: Rebecca Riedy
(I checked Piotr Michael's IMDB page, and it seems he does a wide enough range of characters that I can't guess whether he's playing John Sheridan's son, his father, or both in some kind of delightful casting-related misdirect.)

Be nice if they would tell us the actual release date other than summer..And a trailer would be nice too.
Or in a white star that has a quantum space (as seen in The Lost Tales) accident of some kind.
I'm leaning towards it being something that happens after Sheridan didn't die, though it does suggest a downer Quantum Leap ending ("Some of the Minbari believe he'll come back someday, but I never saw him again in my lifetime").
I love the concept and I can't wait to see it. The casting news certainly hints at some interesting timelines and ideas.
For better or worse, this may be the last hurrah for the franchise under jms, and I wish it the best. The original run of B5 was the shining beacon in space for serial storytelling of that era, but every attempt to further the franchise after this has been unsuccessful for any number of different reasons - IMO, the key one being the attempts to set up a new five-year-plan. I don't fault the vision, but the attempts at execution have been mediocre at best, and haven't been successful by any real stretch.

Not quite what I expected (alas, no Telepath War...yeah, I know), but it's still pretty exciting!
I also didn't expect that the characters whose portrayers have gone beyond the Rim would be recast, but if it was going to happen anywhere with the original cast, this is the way to do it.
Plus:
Although, if it's Zathras, then perhaps not.

I get that same sense, right down to some characters being recast.
If Zathras is involved, then definitely!

I kind of hope not...for me "War Without End" sufficiently closed the loop on that, pun intended.
I wouldn't be surprised if one of the alternate timelines is along the lines of, "What if Sinclair wasn't transferred off Babylon Five?" or more distressingly, "What if Sinclair doesn't become Valen?"
Although, "What if Sheridan becomes Valen?" has some potential for shenanigans...
Huh, this could be a chance for us to see the originally conceptualized B5 timeline...

Sounds like it could be pretty good to me. A time travel/alterate reality story like this feels like a nice way to pay tribute to the series in what will probably be the end of this version of the franchise.
And according to the IGN article, it'll be coming to streaming. The article doesn't say, but I'm assuming since B5 is a WB property, it'll be on Max.
