Couldn't agree more. Babylon 5 is possibly the best sci-fi ever put to screen.
The overall story arc is so unbelievably well-executed, the special effects and the costumes etc felt beyond their time; and every race of alien, every inividual, had such great importance. The Bible WISHES it was as cohesive as the Babylon 5 story.
Truly a masterpiece of filmmaking. To any lurking motherfucker reading this thread - start watching Babylon 5! It is astonishingly good. If you have time to dick arpund on 4chan you have time to start watching this masterpiece

Fun fact: Many people wonder why Claudia’s Babylon 5 character completely changed between seasons. According to her autobiography, Claudia had dinner with JMS after the first season and they had an awkward moment when she realized that JMS considered it a date and she didn't. JMS thought she was into older guys because she had been married to Gary Devore (google that guy, very deep and unsolved rabbit hole) who was 24 years her senior. However, Claudia had at this point decided that she liked really young guys more and was dating dudes who were literally still in high school. She claims JMS never treated her the same after that dinner and discovering that she was turning into a cougar.

Claudia is one of the worst actresses of all time desu and her replacement was 100x better. Also alcoholics are subhumans.

What I always thought was weird was how they wrote her out of the show.
First they have her in a pitched battle making a heroic sacrifice, which would be a fine way to write off a character.
But then she survived, but was in a coma that could last forever or end tomorrow, which would be a fine way to write off a character.
But then that incel rangerbro decides to sacrifice himself to bring her back to life so she could decide to fuck off forever to a post where we will never see or hear from them again, which of the three options presented to write off a character is the most clunky while also sacrificing another side character.

>>211518868
She wasn't meant to be written off. When the show got picked up for season 5 the actors had to sign immediately. She did not want to do the full episode order because she wanted time to make movies. The producers said no and talks fell through. The first half of season 5 was really bad. I don't think Ivanona banging Byron would have made it better.

SG-1 Blows it out of the water, and most people would agree Farscape is superior. TNG goes without saying.
Babylon 5 does have the most Kino alien races and spaceship designs though.

>>211522806
Babylon 5 got the power scaling right in a way Star Trek never did. Realistically the Enterprise (and the probably the Federation as a whole) would have stood no chance against the Borg. The way Babylon 5 showed the difference between the older races and the younger races and how the former completely outclassed the latter was a more accurate representation.

they both were supposed to survive
there was a stupid contract dispute so they let her go
>>211522912
the original plan was the Earth war would continue into 4 episodes of season 5
assuming they were going down with TNT the other season 4 subplots were ejected to focus on the earth war and get it wrapped up by the end
had that not happened Sheridan in custody would have been the season ending cliffhanger
so thats all that was changed, 4 episodes

>>211500665

the original dvd versions are shit, they're 3rd or 4th generation copies that bounced back and forth between NTSC and PAL and were stretched to widescreen causing the bloating whenever a shot composites live action and CGI

>>211536270
>assuming they were going down with TNT
*PTEN.
Then they were picked up by TNT, who gave them enough money to shoot Season 5 plus a few made-for-TV movies. Credit where it's due to TNT, as well, they promoted the shit out of Babylon 5.
It's just that, like you said, since they thought that Season 4 was going to be the last one they wrapped up the Earth Civil War storyline early, which meant that Season 5's front half was empty.

>>211536465
yes right my mistake PTEN, TNT was where they were picked up
and then had problems with Crusade

>>211536465
>front half
No, it is only 4 episodes that had to be filled it
the Telepath War and the agents of the Shadows would have all been in it
because the stories would have been percolating away in season 4 they would have had better development

>>211539814

>>211539814
>triggered by seeing that Jews still exist in the future

stick to Star Trek, kid

>>211539814
There's also a church and a mosque, and probably places of worship for other religions, both human and alien, as well. Straczynski himself is an atheist, but also stated that religion has been important for humanity for thousands of years and that's not going to change just because the setting is 250 years in the future (contrast Star Trek, which often turned its nose up at religion). Hence this scene from Season 1:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Hg_TRynRIs

>I stopped watching after the episode with the rabbi and Jewish rituals.
Jesus Christ. If the fact that Jews appeared on TV is enough to get you to stop watching a show, how have you not unalived yourself at the knowledge that Jews exist in real life?

In any event, Judaism has been around since at least 1200 BC, you really think it's going to be gone by the 2260s AD? One character on the show is Jewish, so what?

Aside from that, in Season 3 a recurring character is Brother Theo and the order of Trappist monks he heads on the station. The episode "Passing Through Gethsemane" in particular is, like, THE most Catholic episode of any TV show ever filmed, ever.

>>211542058
Yes, the whole idea is vastly different cultures not understanding each other, making terrible mistakes, and when emotions are high setting a course of action that may have been too harsh. It's like the Pope was out on a trip and the group ran across some tribe of indigenous. The guards presented their arms as is tradition to show respect. And the tribe responds by attacking and killing the Pope. That tribe is gonna get curbstomped in response, and once it gets rolling, it's hard to stop.

>>211509255
He's a classic Shakespearian tragedy and he plays it perfectly. Every scene he is in is permanently burned into my brain. I honestly think it might very well be the greatest performance of any actor.

As a fan there are a number of things I don't like about Babylon 5. Marcus / Ivanova romance was lame. Whole Byron plot was insufferable. Psycorps could have been more than just evil baddies, in later seasons they tried to backpedal a bit on that. When they were gathering up their forces at the end despite the 'danger' of the Old Ones nothing bad ever happened to anybody. Nobody even got knocked back into some bridge panels or anything.

Season 5 was a disaster when viewed as a whole. Some of the episodes were OK and what the fans wanted was "more random Babylon 5 stories" on Usenet where JMS hung out so he indulged. Even had a number of great guest writers / fans of the show working on that season. Actually a LOT of Babylon 5 stuff in the show was the result of Internet fans nitpicking it and JMS either defending his goof up but often he would go with the consensus. It was probably the first, and last, somewhat interactive TV show that saw the show runner not only directly interacting with Internet nerds but getting into flame wars with them too.

>>211542523

>>211542058
A Minbari shrieks in pain when he hits you.

What made it all so amazing was that JMS took it so much further. Plenty of shows could have started off with a basic misunderstanding plot. But he didn't just leave it at that and went on through multiple seasons and some of the best episodes fleshing out the background of the war and the true tragedy of it. How humans and mimbari had shared souls and they were basically wiping out their own kind. To be fair Sharidan should have left a note telling the future mimbari not to go full autism on the human apes they would meet in a few thousand years. But I guess that would be started some sort of time paradox.

>>211544826
Maybe he did and it was ignored or lost or something

>>211540923
One extremely minor complaint I have, and this isn't a problem unique to B5, but that scene is from an episode where they're doing like a religious cultural exchange, and every alien race apparently has just one religion for the entire species.

I read the summaries of the last 2 Babylon 5 episodes, I've been putting them off, partially because im waiting until ive seen the movies, and partially because i dont want it to end. However i know one of the movies is a prequel, and the other two have been described to me as "monster of the week episodes". Does that mean that we dont see the end of Londo's arc? It just ends with him being an old miserable slave?

>>211545787
I think you should stop spoiling yourself and just watch it.

>>211546019
fair enough

I actually wish this show had MORE filler, like a lot more. They managed to have a shitload of character depth and development, world building, etc with what they had, and it makes me wonder what they'd have accomplished with more time and money.

>>211545586
For the lesser known races sure. But the Centauri have a greek/roman style pantheon, the Minbari religious caste have "circles" which aren't really explained and the Narn have differing prophets such as G'quan and G'lan that seem to have differing teachings.

>>211535297
I fucking love this crossover and I want you to know that I laughed out loud anon

>>211546488

Why didn't they just get someone who could do a good Russian accent? Its super obvious from how she's written that this was the original intention

>>211548310

>>211547743
Claudia was white, good looking and said her lines which is more than can be said for most actresses these days. If Babylon 5 was made today they'd cast some hideous black woman in the role

>>211547743
I think she was supposed to have been educated abroad so lost her Russian accent.

>>211545586
Usually in sci-fi, if an alien race has a religion, every member of that race follows it fully. But B5 showed a lot of difference between individuals, like G'Kar being deeply religious while one of his aides said she only believed in herself.

The only thing I could think comes close to Babylon 5 is Legend of Galactic Heros. I'd watch the original anime, but you can watch the reboot if you want a shorter, more modern take with English. Basically its historical fiction if a righteous version of Napoleon encountered Yi Sun Shin.

it would have been like Game of Thrones crossed with Infinity War if they actually put money and care into this series. JMS ran through the 5 years holding it together with duct tape. A lot of the genius of this series I suspect came from Harlan Ellison, who offered his hand after watching Star Trek fuck over JMS like they did him.
>>211554170
I think that could have been done better. Maybe like a suicide run where all the young races run through the battlefield or just refuse to fight for either side despite the elders making them choose one

>>211557455
You need to finish season 4 that's the best part. Then skip the first half of season 5 until the psycorp shit is resolved. The rest is a comfy ride to the end.

>>211557415
That's season 3 or 4, I think. Season 2 is still hopeful.

>But I... can forgive... you.

Time for... Babylon 6.

>>211557670
So glad the cartoon bombed and hopefully that remake never comes. If they ever come out with a pozzed remake that will be the day I say goodbye to this world and I won't be the only one leaving that day.

>RAHRW KILL EVERYONE IM SO FULL OF HATE RARWHRHW

imagine being a fucking fan of this show and still being so full of hate as if you didnt learn fucking squat

>>211557911
You lost, but at least you have game of thrones so don't feel too bad. You'll never get the true classics though. ;)

>>211557812
Seeing what JMS has made in recent years makes me sadly agree and appreciate what we got. It should also be noted that in the case of Babylon 5, network meddling kept JMS's worst impulses contained.

>>211557911
Imagine zoomies learning about Babylon 5 through a fat incel shooting up a Wal-Mart and screaming, "The Avalanche has started, the pebbles can no longer vote!"

Anons, what did you do to deserve this?

>>211558091
It's true, people don't realize how close B5 was to being a disaster. It was a once in a lifetime miracle caused by a unique set of circumstances. JMS left to his own made some godawful shit. We are supremely lucky he managed to get one golden egg shitted out with the help of a lot of good people. We're never getting a repeat of that again in this lifetime.

>>211558240
Dourif is always kino.

>>211499413 (OP)
only faggots like this

>>211554170
On the other hand speaking to their face like that rather than cowering in fear or reverence was the perfect way to show them how much the younger races had grown.

>mfw people keep warring about DS9 and B5 and here I am thoroughly enjoying both because I'm not a subhuman neanderthal
>captcha: JMS0R

he really liked having the doctor character say

a lot

>>211557415
>it became something greater
>our last best hope...

>>211558598
>DS9 and B5
both shit made by queers

for me, it's watching the first episode, not finding the tv movie, and having that eastern european say VIR a lot

>>211558598
>No one:
>Troll: hey guyz whaddabut DS9 vs B5?
Don't you have a Stargate thread to derail?

>>211559033
yes, no one ever talked about ds9 when babylon 5 came up in any conversation ever, nor vice versa

Who had 'Claudia Christian writes a cookbook for gamers' on their BINGO card?

>>211559118
Not sure why your parents neglected you as a child but I do know why you were bullied at school and are friendless now.

>>211559286
anon, i don't know if you know this people talk about ds9 and babylon 5 together a lot
how did you not know this
did your parents drop you on your head?

>>211559203
>she went nuts
>first captain guy went nuts
>blond psycorps woman went nuts
What kind of psyops were they running on that set? MKULTRA type shit.

>>211558224
nice
>>211536141
I thought them being illustrated in the book of G'Quan to be a great lovecraftian touch.

>The last episode when Sheridans walks in the empty space station and reminiscing
It kind of felt like the show "ended" after the ancients BTFO and the new stuff they tried to build up never really got a proper conclusion.

>>211559487
>he didn't read the tie-in novels

>>211554170
He didn't just scold them. He told them their game was over. That they couldn't hide their intentions anymore and that they wouldn't be picking a side so they should just get the fuck out.

>>211559431
It was the sets, they were all made out of asbestos and other super toxic shit. Fucked up half of the cast and crew.

>>211559431
What? The blonde just switched careers iirc, she wanted to be a news anchor or whatever.

>>211559431
>she went nuts
I thought she was just a regular alcoholic nympho?
>blond psycorps woman went nuts
QRD?

>>211559577
Correct. Nobody did.

>>211543772
>>211544004
damn poles pushing christian values

>>211559964
Wrong. I did, and I know what happened to Vir and Londo and David Sheridan and Bester and Garibaldi!

>>211499413 (OP)
i don't see it

pretty dead cast

>>211500665
>Zathras have very sad life. Probably have very sad death. At least there is symmetry.

>>211499579
I want you, Mr. Morden.

>>211564990
*blushes* w-well n-no one has ever answered me like that before. I don't usually do this but perhaps we can make an exception this one time.

Was this guy right about telepaths? If we had telepaths in our society, would we have a psi corps?

>>211567373
He was.

>>211558240
legit one of Dourif's most intense performances and it didn't involve him completely mugging with veins in his neck bulging

>>211567373
He was based and should have won. Byron garbage proved that even the non-psycorps telepaths needed to be eliminated.

I loved Babylon 5 trying to be realistic. The spinning sections, the problems, and benefits that causes. Such as they travel down a train the middle, and someone plants a bomb in the car, so Sheridan can jump out and float towards the outer edge, but it's moving so fast it'll kill him anyway.

>>211567809
While that did lead to the absolute kino scene of Kosh "revealing" themselves. It always seemed stupid that after the politcal strife that had just happened, that Sheridan would be essentially taking the bus to an important political meeting.

>>211568961
I just like the spinning and more real ways of creating gravity and problems with space travel

>>211545787
Only 2 of the movies are worth watching . Call to arms and the second to last one can't remember the name

>>211558240
This show really had some fantastic writing

>>211569126
All of them are worth watching.

>>211522698

>>211523630
I love sg1, farscape and tng but no way are any of them on the same level as Kinolon 5

>>211499413 (OP)
this serie always seemed boring to me

>>211569625
I forgot that one, also

>It's another "Ivanova solves an argument between two alien groups by gangbanging them" episode

>>211571012
The fact that she was 'kinky' for the day caused quite a stir actually. When it was implied that she and that Psycorp lady fingerbanged the gay magazines counted it as a win and she briefly became a gay icon before MARCUS stole her heart.

Wtf was his problem?

Hop in fellow male feminist, we're going to respect women!
