Postaan tännekki jos joku B5 diggari ei vielä tiennyt. Lähde www.jmsnews.com Tuon kyseisen sivun moderaattori on ollut paikalla San Diegon Comin-conissa ja kirjoittanut tiivistelmät jms:än paneelista. --JMS sold a movie to Ron Howard. It’s a thriller/mystery movie set in the ‘20s in Los Angeles. They want to get it into production as fast as possible and JMS is flying up there on the 3rd to meet with Ron Howard and those guys to go over the script and make sure everything is where it needs to be. It’s going to be a big budget film. Ron Howard is a nice guy. The first time JMS had a phone conference with him about the script, JMS called him Mr. Howard and the reply was “You hired my dad on Babylon 5, you can call me whatever you want.” Possibly it could be in production by the first part of next year. --JMS was up in Toronto recently and they did a 12 episode radio drama series for the CBC called the Adventures of Apocalypse Al. It’s kind of a film noir style comedy drama science fiction supernatural series a la Men In Black or Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy. It’s in little 5 minute chunks and it’s fall-down funny. --A pilot for Touchstone has started for a dramatic prime time network series called Borrowed Lives. It was actually sold last year but it was too late to go into development but now they’re actually in the script stage. --Rising Stars is in development with Sam Raimi’s production company for a series. --Midnight Nation is being bid on by two different studios for a movie. --He pitched Dream Police to a major studio, they want to do a motion picture and they’re negotiating now for JMS to write it. --And there’s something else…WB came to him as they do periodically wanting to do something with B5. They asked if he wanted to do a feature film but JMS declined mainly because he can’t yet picture structuring a B5 movie “…as long as Andreas and Rick insist on staying dead.” Maybe in a year or two he’ll be able to but right now he can’t do something big. What JMS suggested was a bunch of short films—little mini-movies, an anthology show set in the Babylon 5 universe. They said, “Okay.” There’s a network already interested in carrying them but they’re also planned for direct to DVD. This will be “Babylon 5 – The Lost Tales’, a lot of small stories that never made it into the series that he’s rediscovered notes for. And JMS wants no interference, complete creative support – in writing. They said, “Okay.” And JMS wants to direct them. They said, “Okay.” The first will be three individual stories about three of the main characters (to be determined). The plan is to shoot in September, post-production Oct.-Dec. and they’ll probably come out the second quarter of 2007.
olis kyl siistii tuollainen! Itse olen tosi-b5-fani, kaikki osat tuli nauhoitettu telkusta kun se sieltä tuli!
Ensimmäisessä DVD:ssä tarinat keskittyvät ihmis hahmoihin.. Tarkempaa tietoa ei ole vielä mutta ilmeisesti Captain Sheridanin(Bruce Boxleitner) jakso on tuolla eka dvd lätyllä. Tämä siis ei ole virallinen tieto. Ja Londo Mollari on mukana toisessa DVD julkaisussa joka ilmeisesti keskittyy ALIEN hahmoihin. Ja tämän on jo itse Peter Jurasik(Londo) vahvistanut. Ja jos DVD julkaisut myyvät hyvin niin jotain muutakin on tulossa B5 rintamalla. Niin ja onhan se B5 nettipelikin tulossa tulevaisuudessa ainakin JMS:än mukaan.
Kuulostaa melkein liian hyvältä ollakseen totta, jään mielenkiinnolla odottamaan mitä tästäkin tulee!
