Zat posted:It looks as good as it ever has. Though the video is slightly more visibly compressed on HBO Max than on Prime Video, smoothing out the film grain a bit, but nothing major. Yeah that's what I started with. That's what's listed as S01E01. I haven't seen Babylon 5 in literally 20 years or more so be interesting to rewatch it. I remember some major plot archs but a lot of the middle stuff I don't remember at all.

I'm basically rewatching Babylon 5 with very little memory of it. I just got to Episode 19 Season 2 The Long Twilight Struggle and goddamn I had totally forgotten of the turn out of the Narn Centauri war. Goddamn it is brutal how powerful the episode is

I'm actually kind of excited. I just started rewatching the whole thing after not seeing it for 20 years. It'll be interesting to see if it makes it through developement. JMS has just gotten better with writing Sense8 was super loving good.

pentyne posted:The episode with the Markabs essentially committing self-genocide because they refuse to believe the truth about a disease is over 25 years old and if they did it again today people would lose their poo poo on them for being "political" and it would be just glorious to watch unfold. Of all the things to change, remaking that episode and keeping to the original plot would be amazing. I just watched that recently and it definitely has a feeling of being a AIDS allegory especially because they think its a moral failing which is what people thought about AIDS during the 80s 90s and even now. It was really good. Its interesting to me because I think its the episode that shows the show isn't afraid to end on a total downer. A lot of episodes end on a downer or on a "no real ground was made".

They should do the original idea for DeLen where she was suppose to be male then turn female. Would be really good and cool.

There's a real oppurtunity to make agressively progressive Scifi with the new Babylon 5. I feel like with JMS work on Sense8 that its likely to be pretty out there.

I'm at Season 4 Episode 11, I have no idea where this is going. My memory of the show from 25 years ago has faded. The only thing I remember is Sheridan gets captured and poisoned with a corned beef sandwich. Ivanova dies and Marcus uses some machine to bring her back. Garibaldi is a sleeper agent for the Psicorp I have no idea where this is headed. I mean its season 4 and episode 11 and things are heating up with the Earth v Babylon 5. Its good so far.

I got to the Penn and Teller episode. Also apparently it was also written by Neil Gaiman so that was a big surprise. Pretty good episode so far. edit: Oh hey big loving surprise that the telepath colony turned into a total poo poo show because their leader had a martyr complex.

Besters back and the Telepath thing is hopefully winding down. I'm on Episode 11 Season 5. Besters great to hate. Koenig is so wonderful in the show.

Well the telepath thing turned out about how I was expecting it to turn out. I'm now on episode 12 Season 5. Glad that particular storyline was finished , hopefully. Disappointed no one killed Bester. I don't like the new music for the series and I don't like B5 opening. I liked the narrative opening more , but whatever. Its still really good.

I'm really digging the idea of G'Kar becoming a spiritual leader. Waiting to see how that turns out. So far the season is really good but it has this real anticlimactic feel to it.

I've made it to Season 5 Episode 17 Movements of Fire and Shadow. drat really hoping things turn out alright for Londo and G'Kar. Mostly I'm worried about G'Kar. This is a much better plot than the telepath storyline.
