Son of Sam-I-Am posted:blind bookmarked thread starting again on s1 when you've just finished s5 is an incredible power move, incidentally - you notice a lot more to like about s1 and obviously, all the stuff that was being foreshadowed as early as the pilot is even richer.

MrL_JaKiri posted:Partially it depends on what version you watched, too. Originally she had very "military" line reads that the network didn't like from a female character and demanded that she be softened. The pilot as broadcast has redubbed all her dialogue with these softer reads, the remastered version has the originals back. i honestly thought her and dr whatsit were terrible, and i'm very glad they didn't stay into the full series, since ivanova and franklin are both fairly strong. i don't know which redubbing of takashima I watched, though.

I think I came in when it first aired, around one of the more pivotal eps of s4, and the space battles alone were like nothing I'd ever seen on tv at the time. I watched the whole series thanks to a friend who'd bought the lot (on VHS lol), then watched it all again recently. It hella stands up, though there are ebbs and flows.

Yes, it's a good bonus after you've watched the rest.

i really liked Ninja Assassin (not a ninja who is an assassin, an assassin... of ninjas!) it was just good pulpy fun. and sense8 is fairly extra, but it's a lot of fun.

The premise of believers is very much that Sinclair's authority on b5 is limited, and its a neutral space. Otherwise it wouldn't exist.

Vavrek posted:You've hit on my favorite dumb thing about the Kosh costume: It doesn't fit through the doors on Babylon 5. This is why Kosh is always mysteriously already standing there in any scene he appears in. I love this, and also the fact that it can be canon, somehow no-one has ever seen him going through a doorway...

It's more the 'what is this thread for' aspect, I think? Like we can't really meaningfully argue about Relevant Themes and maintain that, so it belongs in the other thread. Thanks for editing your post ![]() I'd also like it if we keep posting the relevant episode number above any spoiler blocks tyvmia

MrL_JaKiri posted:I also agree that describing exactly the earliest time to watch a stand alone movie to not be spoiled by something is itself a spoiler and should be not in this thread. Let's call a general halt to helping people with their b5 journey as the discussion it produces is wearying. this thread is all about the joy of discovery, e.g. Gary's hair strip
