Babylon 5: The Lost Tales - Voices in the Dark
J. Michael Straczynski has announced that the principal photography for Babylon 5: The Lost Tales has been completed, coming in under budget and a full day ahead of schedule. They still need to work out the computer effects and whatnot, but I am starting to get excited about the Babylon 5 universe again.
I am one of those people that ignore Crusade, and Legend of the Rangers, and hope they go back to their roots, and bring us something really compelling. It sounds like J.M.S. has that in mind though, as here are some details:
This first DVD, entitled “Voices in the Dark,” covers the same 72 hour period of time as Sheridan travels on board a Presidential Cruiser en route to Babylon 5 from Minbar for a celebration marking the 10th anniversary of the founding of the Interstellar Alliance. One part of the story follows Sheridan as he picks up an unexpected visitor on the edge of Centauri space, Prince Regent Dius Vintari, and a warning about what will come afterward delivered by the techno-mage, Galen. The other part of the story is set aboard Babylon 5, as Colonel Lochley summons a priest from Earth space to deal with a problem that may have dark supernatural overtones. The two parts of the greater story intersect at certain key plot and thematic points, so that they overlap and complement each other while telling separate, but simultaneous, stories.
