So, a Babylon 5 reboot may be in the works.

Speaking at San Diego Comic Con last week, Straczsynki announced that he would soon be sitting down to write a Babylon 5 feature film, which is envisioned as a reboot of the iconic sci-fi series. JMS said that he plans to get the script locked down by the end of 2015 and the film would then enter production the following year in 2016.

    I dunno, for B5 I could see it, due to all the executive meddling they had to overcome during the original run. Tell the "real story", as it were. Though I really like ol' Bruce Boxleitner, pulling off the Sinclair arc across the entire 5 seasons would have been AMAZING. How much foreshadowing in season one didn't quite pay off due to the switch?

    Still, I'd rather see a sequel or something in the future.

    On the OTHER hand, this might result in some really HQ Omega Class Destroyer models, and renew interest enough to get them modded into all these upcoming space sims, and that would make me very happy indeed.
