TLT trailer - Now Showing!

[Whyruss]

babylon5.com has a new outfit!!!! I guess there must be the trailer somewhere ^^

[Whyruss]

ok - there is a trailerbutton... but it says "coming soon" >.<""""

[Truth66]

It figures. I just finished checking the new B5 site and the anticipated Trailer says "Coming Soon". I'm sure we're all even more frustrated now than we were before. Oh well it's Warner Bros.

Not me. Not after waiting for months back when TMoS was a possibility. Heck, a few days is a snap!

I was there...in the early days of B5. Never knowing from season to season if the story would be compteted. Waiting for weeks, even months for new episodes. Searching desperately for the latest broadcast day and time as the networks shuffled it around. Yes, I was there. (and it was uphill both ways through a blinding snowstorm.

Waiting. It's what we do.

EDIT to add: DO go to the MySpace link and watch the 'Temporary' video. There may be some minor spoilers, I don't recall. But I guarantee it'll send shivers down your spine. It's lovely.

Whoa...is that a different take of G'kar's speech? Cause it doesn't sound quite as I remember it.

I think it's the same one, just adjusted somewhat to go with this piece.

Is that music exactly the same as LoTR's main theme ?

Music sounds little bit like in the Rangers movie.

Is this MySpace clip the opening intro for TLT ? Kind of short if it is... Or is it only a small part of the intro?

It's only part of the opening sequence, I'm pretty sure. What JMS said in NY was:

We created an opening setpiece for Babylon 5 and then kind of a combination tribute and main title because obviously the DVDs will later on include all kinds of other actors from the show and we also wanted to nod to them as well. So there's that piece put together and it's a different kind of main title than we've ever seen before with, again, this has a tribute to the other cast members, and on the opening for this thing I wanted to do something to pull it back in time to where we are in the story and to nod to Andreas who is very much missed.

Hmm... the new babylon5.com page looks simpler than I expected. Great that it is up though. Too bad the trailer isn't yet.

And it's really nice to see that intro. For those commenting on it sounding LotR-ish in music, that's really only during the portrait sequence. When it crashes into the titles it becomes a bit more season 5-ish in feel, though still feeling bigger, with a nice choir and everything. Franke is the man.

edit: kind of weird that in the lost tales->downloads section, they're using all this old artwork for TLT wallpapers. Some of which don't look particularly good anyway. Someone went way, way too happy with the highlight brush in some of them. The gallery section deserves a quick peek though.

Honestly, I expected more of this new page...
Even the earlier mentioned mistakes in the chraracters-section (Neroon, Clarke) are still there - painful...

Let's hope the trailer will be on soon.

Yep, that's Babylon 5 as I remember it: big, pompous, stirring, melodramatic and oh-so-slightly cheesey.. Brilliant! I did like the choirs on the longer version I heard before, so look forward to seeing the whole of it.

The effects look excellent too, although that Minbari cruiser still looks way too large (but it's not on screen for long enough to be very noticeable)..

Yeah, it seems to be mostly a visual upgrade (which is rather so-so), and some adding of TLT things. I think I actually liked the old green site better, and I wasn't a huge fan of that one either. Oh well, as long as the trailer is up soon enough, I'm happy.

[Morden]

Agreed!
