A remastered B5 would be awesome. Although, I wouldn't like buying all the sets over again.

Minor glitch I think. Lochley says that Simon's in Security but later on the computer says he's from Maintenance.

And there's where the act break would be.

"After a fashion..." JMS sure likes to use that phrase.

The guy who played Burke did a really good job.

does the smell offend you? well what the fuck do you think - of course it offends me!

Re: First time impressions from the Babylon 5 virgin

Agreed, Tom Riker. Considering he didn't have any use of most of his body, it's especially amazing.

Re: First time impressions from the Babylon 5 virgin

These roaming cameras are disorienting... just like the characters. Motivated camera moves I like.

Could go without so many push ins on the demon guy, though.

I have to say that Lochley's line deliveries leave a lot to be desired. Occasionally she hits the mark, but most of the time she's missing it.

Agreed x3. It's funny, but I think Lochley is the weak link here in this first part. On the series the reverse was often true (IMHO). Some good guest actors here.

Re: First time impressions from the Babylon 5 virgin

Excellent guest actors, all of them.

I wonder if thats partly due to the low number of takes that JMS does when he directs? Maybe if she was given more times to go through each scene, her performance would be better--like Shatner in that regard.
