"A Worthy Addition"
Most Babylon 5 fans probably come into this movie expecting far too much. There is no new story to be written (yet at least), the original arc was completed in the 5 season series. These stories are just meant to be gravy for B5 fans; some 'Lost Tales' to fill in the gap between Season 5 and the Series finale 'Sleeping in Light'.

The 2 stories themselves are well written and contain some trademark JMS dialogue. The first story has not been well received due to the fact that it is very wordy and a bit slow paced. But, the underlying message of the tale is pure B5 and revisits some of the themes of 'ancient' evil that arose in the B5 universe. The second story is more action packed and opens a new door in the story line for future volumes.

I can understand why some fans might be disappointed in this release, but people really need to be more realistic. These stories aren't meant to create a new B5 universe but to add to one that millions have grown to adore. Finally, and most importantly, B5 fans need to support this release so we might see future volumes which sport bigger budgets. Don't forget, it was the fans who through their support brought the 5 seasons of B5 to DVD in the first place.

"A Mixed Bag of Entertainment"
Somewhat uneven not only from clip to clip but within each of the three vignettes. Probably only recommended for real fans of the series who want to see more. The good parts are really very good and stand up against any other body of sci-fi. The less good parts are just that, less than good.

It mad us want to watch the whole series again.

"Disappointing"
After waiting years for JMS to dazzle us once again with his brilliant stories and scripts the 2 episodes on this DVD were disappointing to say the least. As others have already stated the stories were a huge letdown and I feel it's a pity that Ms Furlan didn't have the grace to forgo huge fees to be a part of the anniversary story which was after all DeLenn's story as much as John Sheridan's.

In my honest opinion both stories felt incomplete especially Voices in the Dark. I actually did a search through the menu to look for the rest of the story thinking there had to be a part 2. But no that was it.

It was a poor substitue to what B-5 fans grew to love when the show was on the air. Under the circumstances JMS did the best with what was available to him especially as some of the cast have literally passed beyond the rim. To the rest of the cast that are still around I guess we can truly see it was "just a job" and there's no loyalty beyond that.

It's worth buying but only if you're a true B-5 fan and don't expect too much. Many of the season episodes were better.

"Babylon 5"
I love Babylon 5, all of it. The movie was great and I keep wanting more.

"Okay"
Worth seeing and adding to your collection. I am a fan of Babylon 5 so I had to have it. It is a pity they did not have an adequate budget to make Crusade, Legend of the Rangers and Lost Tales, as good as the first 5 seasons and the movie series. Hopefully they will continue the story with some new and exciting characters.

What our customer's say!

"A GREAT SHADOW OF ITS FORMER SELF", Even on a tight budget, B5 never fails to impress. These are two great stories--yes, real stories with substance and grit. Watching the vid made me long for the glory days, but thank God JMS had the guts to do this one. Sci-fi will never be the same since this series premiered. I only hope I live to see more adventures in this universe. I had a chance to talk to Tracy Scoggins at a Star Trek convention in 07. She has such a good time with the original and with this film. She was laughing and rather proud that she had been promoted to Commander. Thanks JMS for keeping us thinking, all the while we are enjoying the experience.

"It sort of felt like Babylon 5...a little, maybe. ", I was really excited to finally get to see some new Babylon 5 after all of these years. Bruce Boxleitner's portrayal of Captain Sheridan results in one of my favorite on-screen heroes. Sadly, this two episode collection makes me realize that "no man is an island". Both Bruce Boxleitner and Tracy Scoggins are only part of the Babylon 5 universe, and both really felt like they were the only person in each episode, even though there were exactly 3 people in each episode of any significance. I always liked Peter Woodward's character as well, and was sad to never get to see the "Drakh plague" resolved in "Crusade".

While it was nice to see a continuation of JMS's masterpiece known as Babylon 5, it has a little bit of that feeling that "Indiana Jones - Kingdom of the Crystal Skull" gave me. I don't regret buying this two disc set, but it did make me cherish the rest of my Babylon 5 collection even more. Ivanova, Garibaldi, Zack, Delenn, Lennier, Londo, G'Kar(RIP), Steven (RIP), Jeffrey Sinclair and all of the supporting characters just worked together so well. Thank you, JMS for giving us the Babylon 5 universe, and vowing to not taint it's memory with any more ultra low budget additions. Hopefully, Warner Brothers will give you a decent budget some day so that you may continue with your vision. It's just too bad about the TNT issues, and that the SciFi channel seems more interested in playing an endless amount of "Ghost Hunters" and fake wrestling than real science fiction nowadays. It's OK though, all I need to do to get some quality science fiction is just to pop in one of my 30+ Babylon 5 DVDs :).

"Great", Two great stories set in the B5 universe, well worth the watch. Both feel right for the B5 universe, dealing with questions of morality, spirituality, fate, and similar high-brow stuff.

"very good", a great moment to come back aboard babylon5. The mood is strange. the atmosphere is quite like a no man's land and it changes from the series. But it's a great pleasure to find the characters again. This is a very good film for babylon5's fans.

"One of the best shows EVER on television", Stories of developing characters were theaded and interwoven as the seasons progressed. This series was simply one of the best written shows ever aired on broadcast television. Of course it had to be cancelled. Wise, smart, funny, passionate, complex; it was just too good for the [...]-tube. The sci-fi format created safe space to explore contemporary moral and ethical issues without arousing an instant political backlash.

"Not Bad at All", It is B5 in the best sort of way, it asks questions that make sit back and pull at your chin hairs, it makes grand speeches about noble notions and loftier ideals that make you want to be better person. Call it my obsessive nature but it is the small things that kill me, some can't be helped, G'kar and Franklin can't be there but... why COLONEL and not Captain, what's the significance? As I said, B5 in the best way, I enjoyed the stories and it was an interesting treat, and that the characters always read true to themselves even in their absence.

"Decent, not great", The first story was more than a little forgettable. It was not good, largely I think because it featured the female Captain who was never really good even in the series. I also thought the religion in this one was a little over the top, there has always been a religious undertone to the series which is ok, but this one was far more blatant and to me didn't really feel like it fit in with the universe.

The second story with Galen and Sheridan, I thought was a gem and is really what this disc is worth having for. I might not rate the episode as good as some of the better B5 episodes, but I did think it was above par. And the person who played the prince in the episode was really good IMHO, looked and sounded like a Minbari when many other actors never even tried.

I thought the features on the disc were weak as well. It seemed like they took short interviews while on a break in the set or something and kind of chopped them up to make 3 or 4 different features. So some of the features tended to look and sound the same, often repeating what was said in another one which was sad. I didn't expect much in features though so this is sort of ok.

Yes some of the animations, sets, extras, and action scenes made this disc look cheap, but still I thought it was better than other live action straight to DVD movies that I've seen. I think it is unfair to compare it to the working show. Some of the animations may not have been great, but others were better than the original series so it wasn't all bad either.

Overall I thought it was a decent buy. It was more than anything nice to see a couple new episodes of B5 even if one wasn't worth watching. I hope that they come out with a couple more. I d

"Babylon 5 - The lost Tales", What can I say - Like all B5 fans around the world I could not wait to watch the long awaited "Lost Tales". In the past the Babylon 5 series and movies have been outstanding in story line, visuals, and acting.
Disappointment and confusion. Those are words that come to mind after watching this DVD and this has been the same for other B5 fans I know.
I understand that the production budgets are tight and as a result the visuals are a let down. All I can say is that every B5 fan should purchase a copy so that the revenue can go into future B5 projects.

"For the fans", I first saw this at a convention and was glad to see it for sale. Anyone who misses Bab 5 and needs just one more story will be glad with these two tales. I must admit that the writting and effects are not as polished as they could be, but if you just sit back you'll enjoy the ride.

The stories keep to the Bab 5 tradition of thoughtful, passionate storytelling and resonate with current events. With three main characters returning in leading roles we can skip most introductions that eat too much time. This means more narrative with classic dialogue.

Like most DVDs this comes with wonderful extras. I cried during the tributes, and I probably will again.

If you have all of the series, the movies, and shelves full of tie in novels and you don't have this, why? You're just the people this was made for.

"Babylon 5- The Lost Tales", The movie is wonderful! It adds a few more tales to the B5 world. Tales that I really enjoyed. It also has some wonderful cast commentary and discussions. My favorite's were the memorial discussions for the actors who played J'Karr and the Doctor.

It's a must have for B5 fans and I highly recommend it! I wish there were more like it.
