I'll admit that B5:LotR was not all it could have been, or even should have been (you're dead on about the weapons station Jim... Valen help up if the weapons officer ever bends over ;-) ), but I did enjoy the visit to the B5 universe again. G'Kar was in fine form I thought. I've been thinking that perhaps the best we can hope for would be a sort of B5 movie of the year (if we're lucky). Something to fill in some blanks, maybe even open up a few more... sort of like the last few B5 book trilogies but visual. Probably hopelessly unprofitable, but we can dream... Sean Liked B5:LotR a _lot_ better than SW:AotC
