Babylon 5 Movie through Studio JMS

[JesseW]

Are the rumblings true?! Please tell me they're true!

[Looney]

Please someone either confirm this as true or delete that tweet from being visible on #FREEBABYLON5 before the wildfire starts.

I believe this is a reaction to the announcement of the Titans movie, but that tweet could get a lot of hopes up. So PLEASE TELL ME IT IS TRUE ! ! ! MY HOPES ARE SO UP! ! ! ! !

It's true. JMS will be writing it in 2015 and give WB first look but otherwise will go after funding on his own. Yes, the TV rights have been an issue but with all the success that Studio JMS has been having, there's one studio in town that doesn't care about the TV rights - Studio JMS.

Not much more detail until I can re-listen to the recording but a B5 movie by JMS is CONFIRMED.

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH HHHHHHHHHHHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOO ! ! ! ! !

I'll start saving now.

[JesseW]

You know Jan, I've been waiting for confirmation from you all evening, because I knew that only you could provide us with the most accurate information. Thanks for being so awesome

And now, I will sleep ever so peacefully knowing that there is movement in the grass once again. I hope this all works out, and we'll finally be getting what we've all so badly been wanting all these years.. a badass Babylon 5 movie.

Forgive me for sounding a bit cliche, but faith manages my friends.

Oh I can't wait until people wake up and see this news. I wish I could see their faces. And you nailed it JesseW "Faith Manages".

OMG, OMG, OMG, OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


WAAAAAAAAAAHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!


This had better no fall through because JMS can't get the funding.

[Looney]

We should focus on the positive. At a minimum we've been promised new material in some form.


AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH I just want to hug people and jump up and down! ! ! ! ! ! (I LOVE OVER-REACTING ! ! ! !)

This news was totally worth staying glued to my computer for the past four hours.

Agreed.

(As I pump my fists to the sky ! ! ! !) :d

Oh I need to go to sleep, but I can't wait to hear what the sleeping fans around the world have to say when they get up. Of course I doubt many of them will be up early on a Sunday so I am giving up. Goodnight all. I imagine we'll have pleasant dreams tonight.

I'll write a nice long report tomorrow but it's pretty unlikely that funding will be an issue due to the success that Studio JMS is enjoying. In addition to 'Sense 8' with the Wachowsiies, there's another series in the works that can't be discussed yet that has to do with Rod Seriing. And another TV series called 'Two Streets'. And JMS is negotiating with a major network studio to made a seriis based on 'Ten Grand'.

Yeah, I'm thinking funding might not be an issue.

Excellent News!!!!!!!! I remember asking back when studio JMS was first announced if this could possibly be good news for B5 and might produce more, but I wasn't thinking positively about it. Very glad to be proven wrong on that.

WB has forgotten how to dance ...

And all this happened while I was zzz- ing
That was worth waiting for !
Question is : Does JMS ever sleep ?

B5 Movie : Wooo Hooo !!!!
All the other stuff Exciting.

JMS has finally got tired o trying to dance with WB.
Apparently WB "has forgotten how to dance, bit it doesn't matter because" ... StudioJMS has grown big enough to stand on its own feet.

Now we have an even better reason to try getting JMS to Fedcon, thought I doubt we will succeed, he is probably too busy
Once again, Jan, I wish I could have been there ....

I wonder if JMS will be true to his word on it being a reboot. This is what he said at SDCC 2013...
