why no more DVD movies?

[Zalenka]

Is it true that JMS won't produce another DVD movie as he will only be prepared to do a film?

Why not a crusade movie?

Personally though I'd wipe crusade and Call to Arms off the storyline. They did nothing for the B5 franchise.

Its sad, because if WB would give him the correct budget - a budget like Stargate Continuum and The Ark of Truth, I bet with the write creative team he could make some awesome B5 movies.

Why no more movies?

Maybe because the existing ones are terrible.

[Mcfergeson]

I'm saddened to hear this--but at the same time, I also understand the reasons why.

It's amazing that WB doesn't realize what it has here: its own SF franchise along the lines of Star Trek and Stargate, and they're completely willing to let it lay there.

"In the Beginning", "Thirdspace", and "A Call to Arms" are great, but "River of Souls" is just decent and "Legend of the Rangers" is insane-I don't know in a good or bad way.

[SgaIsBad]

Would like to see more.

legend of the rangers was a great concept........it was just that the ships were awful and that holographic weapons interface is the kinda thing that could only have been created at 3 o'clock in the morning when jms was stoned.

There are many DVD mvies, that depend on your searching!

Other than TLT all the other Babylon 5 movies were meant for tv. I think TNT asked for 4 and Scifi 1.

Its important to remember there isn't new B5 dvd movies because WB doesn't want them. From what JMS has said in the pasted they meet with him about every 6 mouths - year to bag him to make more B5 they just don't want to give it a budget on par with Stargate/Star Trek/BSG. And considering how busy JMS is writing other movies I don't blame him for saying "Talk to me when you want to give me the money this project needs to be its best."

[leiasky]

With the economy being what it is, unless a movie will be a sure hit, the studio won't release any sort of funds. Sadly, that's the way it is.

[maneth]

Unfortunately WB has never been very interested in releasing funds for B5, even before the current financial crisis. That's obvious in The Lost Tales, where the CGI is pretty good but there are almost no extras on the station. It really looks empty and abandoned.

[leiasky]

Yeah, Lost Tales was terrible. Easily the worst of the B5 movies.

[nx01a]

Nonono. Lost Tales was infinitely better than that Rangers movie.

[maneth]

Oh yes it was better, but possibly not infinitely better. I do have to wonder, however, what they were thinking when they made Rangers.
