ZOMBIES & Babylon 5!

[Shadow-Sentient]

I figured that the subject had already been broached here but have spent the past four days trying to remember my p/w to this forum. I was shocked as hell to see the "We Interrupt This Program" bit in the special features of "Dawn of the Dead".
It was a bittersweet treat.
Someone on that film was a B5 fan, casting Biggs as the anchorman and Boxleitner as the voice of the President.

I shall have to get the DVD of the Dawn of the Dead remake.

Romero is apparently working on a new one called (I think) Land of the Dead, which follows his original idea for Day of the Dead, Having trained zombies protecting walled citys of the remaining living. AND Zombies in Washington.

"And the rock cried out, no hiding place..."

No problem. Never forget: Even the Vorlons made some mistakes

And let's not forget the recent DVD release of the Dawn of the Dead Remake. One of the special features on the DVD is an ongoing newsreport of the crisis, and the anchor is our dearly departed Richard Biggs. I'll admit it was kinda hard to watch since this was the last (far as I know) piece of work he did... and his final lines gave me a lump in the throat considering his passing.

In the same feature, Bruce Boxleitner has a audio only cameo as the voice of the U.S. President... and I believe that the company responsible for producing the special features is the same one that did the B5 DVD special feature. I'm reaching there, but hey, it's something!

I was watching the unrated directors cut last night.
It's a pity those scenes were not in the theatrical release. Zack Snyder must be a B5 fan. I loved Richard Biggs' scenes, especially where he announces the nuking in China and when he was looking for the rescue stations. Too cool! It was eerie to hear him saying he was "coming home." I still can't believe he is gone. Bruce does have a presidential voice. It would have been supremely cool to see him in one of the news conferences.

Did anyone think the Sec of Defense in the movie looked like a very-aged Sheridan?

Spotted a certain Technomage on Charmed last night.

He made a pretty good Demon, too.

She apparently was in the video game. Which I don't think is quite the same thing.

I did not know that... very cool!

The DotD remake was released in theaters this past March, and the DVD just came out this week. If you were unaware of the remake and are a "Romero Purist", be warned that it is quite different from the original... pretty much sharing the name and the fact that people take shelter in a mall are the only similarities.

This I did NOT know! I've just bought that but have n't watched it yet. I will be watching it on Saturday night with my fiancee 'Firebird'. Oh how sad that will be!

Just this evening my family and I watched "...And the Rock Cried Out 'No Hiding Place!' " with Rick's walkabout-finding-himself-stabbed piece. It was very dificult to watch such a vibrant, young and healthy person playing the part..saying the words. How sad.
