Screencap Review

[kungfuwaynewho]

I am beginning my first-ever Babylon 5 rewatch!  I hope it will be the first of many.  I decided it might be fun to do some reviews as I go along, but I'm not very good at writing actual meta.  So I'm just going to make jokes on top of screencaps.





















And a collection of prettehs:



Part II.

Gahhh! First of all this is way awesome and I haven't even read through it yet! *is excited*

Secondly, I am not sure I ever actually watched this entire episode/movie thingie. *hides* I had already seen a lot of the series when I tried to watch it and I was just too shocked by how different everything was.

Comment spam!

Okay I definitely don't remember everything in here (what kind of a fan am I!?) but I do remember some of it.

I'm so glad Delenn didn't look like that the whole first season too, it's a pretty bizarre look. And imagine the whole race of Minbari being based off that--yikes!

Who is the woman Sinclair is in bed with? I definitely don't remember those parts, but it's entirely possible I just blocked them from my memory.

Also wtf is up with those harnesses they are wearing - is that supposed to be the tram thing? So glad they got rid of those too.

Oh, this will be fun! I'm not far ahead of you in my rewatch with the roomie.

Also, I freely admit I skipped The Gathering, and looking at this, I'm not sad I did.

Yeeeah. I commented on this earlier, and then reread it and realized I sounded like a yeotch. So I deleted it and, yeah. Sorry. I'm having a DAY.

This is so cute. For reals. And I look forward to lots of pictures capped "This is where you should kiss her"; "Seriously, dude, kiss her"; "KISS HER YOU FUCKER!" etc.

K. I'm taking my cranky self to bed now. :)

I.... I....

So, somehow, after... five or so years in this fandom? I'd never seen caps from "The Gathering" before. Specifically, caps of Delenn from "The Gathering." I mean, I've read the series concept stuff and all that before, and I knew that they changed her look a lot after the pilot, and that they were going for a real androgyny thing there, but... wow.

That. Um. Yeah. Special. It's really... special.

Poor Mira! I remember reading somewhere that even when she got to look mostly human again, she still wasn't happy about losing her eyebrows and thought it was unflattering. And in the only other English speaking role she's had, they've got her running round the jungle looking like Alice Cooper.

Heh, I've only seen The Gathering once and it was a good few years before I started watching the series proper like. I do remember G'Kar offering Lyta sweet lovings. And I think Takashima was going to be the Psi Corps mole, who shot Garibaldi at the end of S1?

Yeahhh, I wouldn't recommend this to anyone to get them interested in B5. Or most of S1 for that matter, but you have to sit through that to understand what the hell's going on.

See, maybe you noticed I stopped commenting on you fic because I am totally LAME and basically illiterate. Yes, sorry about that. On the other hand, pretty pictures with silly comment on them? Bring it on! God, I can't believe how bad The Gathering was. Best thing? Morden! And Lyta's hair, I kind of dig it. Although it's really hard to make Lyta not awesome. Except when she's, like, totally in lurve with Byron. I'm really looking forward to all the malicious Byron commentary, heh.

"Delenn's Magical Life Savers" killed me, ROTFL!
