Three episodes into season 3, probably gonna watch another tonight. That entire elevator scene with G'Kar and Londo is incredible. I'm sure other people have said it, but the fact G'Kar refuses to help in any way instead of the classic "enemies team up" situation is hysterical and really demonstrative of their rivalry. So Dr. Franklin has a stim addiction, which sucks, but it got me thinking. I remember his teacher, that guy who worked for President Clark, was taking stims while he was on the run. I think I only really remembered it because I didn't realize there was technology like stims in this universe until then. Now that I know it can be addictive, what's the likelihood of Franklin picking up some bad lessons from his mentor?

OTOH, the Zack/Lyta elevator scene in Thirdspace is just excruciating. I remember it being kinda funny and getting laughs from the crowd in the theater, but my god it does not hold up. I feel like maybe they were trying to recapture the "elevator scene" magic, but it just wasn't gonna happen twice. A bigger waste of five minutes of screen time I have never seen.

I heard a possibly apocryphal story about how G'Kar's actor ad-libbed the hysterical laughing while JMS was on set, prompting JMS to have to investigate what scene they were shooting because he was completely lost.

I'm pretty sure they only shot that scene because they were short of a certain runtime, so they wrote that scene in quickly.

Grand Fromage posted:Me too! The 90s nostalgia in here is incredible, it's like a Usenet newsgroup post-AOL-invasion Anyway, "The Illusion of Truth" is amazing. I can't believe some of the ways this show chooses to have its fun: "Let's see what's on. With our luck it'll probably be a commercial." *cut to commercial* Fuuuuuck, you actually did it, you maniacs and then:  In a morass of sillly future predictions, this one's eerily close Then again, "Dan Randall"  And  Jumping the gun a little   "Helsinki Syndrome" pfff But then that silent scene at the end was a pretty innovative move Data Graham fucked around with this message at 04:53 on Oct 19, 2016 |
