[QUOTE="Sulimo, post: 219058, member: 519"] Looks like its finally happening. Here something from usenet: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Subject: Its Offical, B5 comming to DVD From: "Tim" <timber@optushome.com.au> Newsgroups: aus.sf.babylon5 Cynthia Delmar of the National Captioning Institute posted a request for scrips on the moderated newsgroup: I work for the company doing the closed-captioning of Babylon 5 for DVD release. We are reformatting the captions from the original files, which were mostly done without scripts. We have the first six episodes here already (I'll be doing 1 & 2 myself tomorrow) but alas, still no scripts. Anyway, does anyone have suggestions as to where the best, most authentic sites would be for verifying things like spellings of names/places etc? Someone who might have had access to those scripts and would therefore have it for-sure right? I'd REALLY like us to get this stuff right. Thanks, Cynthia Delmar, Senior Caption Editor National Captioning Institute Burbank, CA A lot of people thought it was a haox, including me! But them JMS responded: >The jollies I'm getting right now is that it looks like DVD is for real.... Yeah, it's real...I was holding off saying anything until WB or someone else could announce it, but since it's come up here via the captioning institute...yeah, as noted, it's real. Season One will be out in a boxed set this Fall, and they're going to be including at minimum two commentaries from me, probably on Signs and Portents and Chrysalis (it's a matter of how much time and energy I can give to it given that there's no fees involved and I'm in the midst of Jeremiah), and if possible, Babylon Squared, maybe Sky Full of Stars. They'd also like to film an on-camera intro by me (but I guess folks will buy it anyway, even with that particular horror included). They're pulling together a lot of stuff on this release so that there are plenty of extras this time around, now that the value of the DVDs has been shown by the first release . jms (jmsatb5@aol.com) (all message content (c) 2002 by synthetic worlds, ltd., permission to reprint specifically denied to SFX Magazine and don't send me story ideas) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ JMS went on to note it will be in widescreen and with 5.1 audio :D [/QUOTE]
