Official Babylon 5 animated movie coming soon


Recommended Posts

Well apparently JMS says it's not a reboot or rehash, seems the cast members that are still around have been working on this as well.

I don't know what they plan on for those who are no longer alive, rumor has that it will be released after San Diego Comic Con July 20-23, 2023

most likely going to be on MAX streaming (HBOMax).  I'll definitely be intrigued to watch it. , hopefully this will create new interest and demand for the B5 Reboot to happen.

As per J. Michael Straczynski the live action B5 is still proceeding and is on hold till the writers' strike is over.

The excitement is real. 

I was recently trying a random game called Beyond Blue and Mira Furlan (Delenn) was in it!

Still being thought about by WB/CW , not written off yet, but not proceeding, just yet, more like let's see if this Animated feature gets huge ratings and then we'll look into a B5 reboot, then mid way through season 3 we can cancel it, like the good old WB way! . 

I hate to be so negative, but I've been around the block a few times with WB & CW on SciFi series.  Would've been better if they sold B5 to  JMS or NBC/Universal .

Really hinges on the animation style for me

I will cry if it ends up looking like anime.  Every time I see anime it just looks like child porn passing as boring low quality cartoons.  ChatGPT could make it if you took tthe "morality" filters off.

So, now we know what type of anime you've watched! :rofl:

Try watching some decent stuff, from places like Studio Ghibli.

I am almost through the first season of Babylon 5 (one episode left). I had never seen it before back when it aired or the reruns, but being a scifi fan I had to give this a go, really hoping Season 2 is better (like many people say online, there are even guides to only watch the "important" episodes of S1, but I watched them all).

Is it streaming somewhere? I may have to give it a re-watch before this comes out.

Edit: It's on tubi for free... https://tubitv.com/series/300010071/babylon-5?start=true&tracking=google-feed&utm_source=google-feed

Season 1 is largely world building stuff.. Season 2 the main plotline really kicks off.

I haven't been keeping up on the news. Have they announced a animation studio yet?

Nothing yet, but the film is done already.  More details next week from Micheal.

Glad to hear they got all the living cast members back to play their characters.

I was really hoping for something totally new. I will watch it, but I am kinda disappointed. Reading the story description it does sound kinda interesting.

He said there's a live action series in development still.  

I was always fascinated about what 'beyond the rim' was like.  Or at least I believe what they called the galactic barrier that was so often mentioned in this shows story as a place of where you go when you ready to evolve past this one.  We have established personalities that could be there.  I think the biggest problem is that we've already had to wait too long and they're not picking up enough to fill all appetites.  Well they better commit to like paramount did to star trek.  The writing was better in the 90s during the franchise war and its well known (if you trust the actors and people involved) that DS9 is ripoff that was made after rejecting B5s pitch.  

I really hope the writing catches up with the times and isnt stuck in the 90s and that it's not anime.

    • OpenClaw now has native mobile apps on iOS and Android by Karthik Mudaliar OpenClaw, the viral open-source personal AI agent, now has its own mobile app, available on both Android and iOS. Users can pair the app with an existing OpenClaw gateway and can start using new mobile-native features that are now available on the app. The app supports all the existing features you'd already have seen on OpenClaw's TUI, as well as some more, such as real-time and background Talk mode, action approvals, sharing from iOS, and optional access to device capabilities such as camera, screen, location, photos, contacts, calendar, and reminders. These features are available on both the Android and iOS versions of the app. What's important with these apps is that they don't run OpenClaw on your phone, but are actually just companion apps that require a running OpenClaw Gateway on an existing device, on macOS, Linux, or Windows via WSL2. To pair the app with your existing OpenClaw gateway, users need to run the command "/pair qr" on the TUI or existing chat interface, which brings up a QR code. Users can then scan this QR code to pair it up with the mobile app. There's also an option to manually pair the app by entering the host and a port. Previously, OpenClaw had been available on phones via WhatsApp, Telegram, Slack, Discord, Microsoft Teams, Matrix, and others. Now, with a native mobile app, the interface is much cleaner and more focused on just the OpenClaw, of course, with the added support for camera, screen, location, and more. It's important to note that OpenClaw comes with its own security warnings. There's always a chance of prompt injection with these tools, so users are recommended to double-check authentication, tool policy, sandboxing, and execution approvals rather than prompts alone. For users well-versed with the AI harness, a native mobile app makes it easier to approve an automation, share a link, use voice, or let an agent react to phone-side context.
    • Google pitches Spanner as one database for all AI agents with these new featues by Karthik Mudaliar Google Cloud is introducing new features within Spanner, its distributed database, as a place where enterprises should keep their data, using which AI agents could make smarter and better decisions. In a detailed blog post, Google highlighted quite a few features coming to Spanner, including relational data, graph relationships, vector search, key-value access, full-text search, and operational analytics together in one database architecture. Google says that today's systems aren't well-made for AI agents. There could be data that is present in one system, search indexes in another, embeddings in a vector database, and relationship data in a graph database. This fragmentation isn't great for AI agents to do their jobs because they don't have access to all of this data in one place. This is where Google is positioning Spanner as a solution. Spanner is already a globally distributed relational database with strong consistency, and Google wants its customers to see it as a broader data layer for AI applications. The company introduced something called Spanner Graph, along with integrated vector search, full-text search, a Cassandra-compatible key-value endpoint, and a columnar engine for analytical queries on operational data. Google also added that its ScaNN-powered vector search can support indexes with more than 10 billion vectors, while the columnar engine can make some analytical scans up to 200 times faster. All of this isn't just exclusive to the Google Cloud Platform, and there's support for multi-cloud as well. This comes via Spanner Omni, which Google says is a downloadable, containerized version of Spanner that can run on Kubernetes and in environments outside Google Cloud, including Microsoft Azure and AWS, and even on-premises infrastructure as well as edge deployments. Google says that customers who are interested in the full-featured edition should contact the company, and there's no word on commercial availability or separate pricing. Those interested can read the full blog by Google Cloud, which details these features individually.

    • They have lots of info on me, I have a facebook account and have done so for years, it was the thing to have then. My phone number is not on it. I don't have the Facebook app on my phone these days, just the messenger part, and only for a couple of people to contact me, most will text me via SMS or phone. I agree, Meta, like others, even without an account will know something about me. Just have to try and keep some things private Also, never saw the need for Whatsapp, people used to ask for me to join it, but as I said to them, I have SMS and a phone, use that, or email
