Re:JMS (babylon 5) New Announcement Rumour
I don’t mean to be critical of anyones’ posts here, but I think we’re doing that speculation thing that he asked us not to do. I’m not sure where it says that its a pure B5 thing, or even what kinds of media it isn’t. Maybe someone can help me out with that. Personally, I’m just going to sit patiently till the end of January. But I would like to see the TP War movie or a continuation of Crusade. 😀 8)
[quote=”snooklepie”]would such a story deal with what ultimately happens to … Bester?[/quote]
In what would have been episode 14 of Crusade, we learn that Bester is a war criminal on the run. He takes refuge on a tiny colony, and basically screws with the locals’ heads to keep himself safe and unfound. Until the Excalibur gets there at least….
[quote]though how such a story would work without the obvious major involement of the human race i don’t know. [/quote]
Mainstream audiences typically reject stories where humans are not in control, or are not the main characters. Titan AE, and Battlefield Earth are two examples. While many people claim that BE wasn’t that good, most audiences didn’t want to see a future where man was relegated to pack animal duties, or in Titan AE’s case, the earth blew up in the first two minutes.
