The Babylon 5 Asylum

The Babylon 5 article on Fan History Wiki needs your help! The article is supposed to give a history of the fandom. At the moment, it isn't doing that very well. It only has very basic information. It needs more. Whatever information you can add, from a date added on the timeline to a fandom specific term to how big a fansite or community is, that would be really great!

Fan History also has a directory of Babylon 5 fans with 786 articles. The articles about members of the fandom are a neat way to promote yourself, people in the fandom you love and as a way of warning people away from wankers and other fandom trouble makers! They also help give an interesting picture of the fandom's history by showing which fandoms Babylon 5 fans came from, what fandoms they joined after leaving the Babylon 5 fandom, who the big name fans are, etc.

Poll #1392 The all-important question
Open to: All, results viewable to: All

Which comes first, the fasten or the zip?

Discuss. For my part, I maintain that fasten-zip is the correct method.

(I know, this is a silly post, but I thought it might help to vitalize the place.)

I have a few questions for anyone who has already seen the Lost Tales. I'd prefer to avoid spoilers, but as long as they're clearly marked in the subject or body of the comment, that's fine too. I hope I won't offend anyone with any of my questions.

How pleased are you with the movie overall? Did you feel like the stories were told well (ie clearly) and completely? In general, was there anything that was left unanswered that you wish hadn't been? Would you say that it has more in common with the original series, or with the movies? How much does it build on what's come before -- is it necessary to be familiar with Crusade or the movies in order to enjoy/understand the plot?

I definitely plan to watch the Lost Tales when I can, but I was hoping to get a short comment or two on what to expect, in general. Thanks in advance!

Welcome to the asylum! Feel free to join and post discussion topics, info, fan fiction/art, graphics or anything else related to Babylon 5.

Of note, a new Babylon 5 movie is coming out July 31 called Babylon 5: The Lost Tales. Info and trailer can be found on the official Babylon 5 website under 'Main Menu.' I'm hopeful that it will prove to be entertaining.
