>*destroys Babylon 5 fans and their lies*
Whatever happened with him threatening lolsuits over being called Groomer/Gooner-fist?
>>218642619Star trek fans are shitting the bed when they are beaten and bruised. The fact that you have to take shots at the king instead of fixing your own fucked up series is really embarrassing.
>>218643220In the actual video, he says that B5 is good, but it is diminishing to it to constantly attach it's legacy to the lie that DS9 ripped it off. And he's right, if the first thing people say about your series is a lie that Star Trek ripped it off, the legacy of B5 becomes a trivia fact about Star Trek.
>>218643343>but it is diminishing to it to constantly attach it's legacy to the lie that DS9 ripped it offThis only happens in your head. B5 fans don't even think about you.
>>218642619Mallfags not beating the mentally stunted allegations.
>>218643412I'm only reporting what the actual argument of the video is. I have no opinion one way or the other, I haven't seen B5. You can go argue with the video if you want. Apparently JMS keeps bringing it up.
Babylon 5 is good for like half a season and complete utter non sense for the rest.
>>218643554>I haven't seen B5So go watch it faggot.
>>218643643And Truck Stop Nine is good for just one character. Who, by the way, did nothing wrong. So suck it.
>>218642619I just finished B5 the other night and goddamn it the thing lived up to the hype. Of course I skipped about 15 first season episodes and only seen 1 episode of the last season (the finale) but what a show
>>218643966>one character>Londo and G'karThat's two characters.
>>218643643This is dishonest. From about midway season 2 to the end of season 4 it’s the greatest sci fi show ever
DS9 gave us Garak, thus I will not talk shit about DS9.
Isn’t this the same guy who made that awful lincoln is a tyrant video
>>218642619may i advise to purchase an advertissement,
>When I don't like it, it's a ripoff>When I do like it, it isn't a ripoff
>>218643995Are you retarded? I season 1 is great after ep 3
>>218642619who the fuck still watches video essays, didn't everyone burn out on them like 4 years ago
I like both shows, but there's certainly evidence DS9 ripped off B5.Not that big of a deal. It just means we got two good shows, instead of one.
>>218643995There is nothing wrong with the first season and you are missing out on a lot. The last half of season 5 is good too and has some important stuff. You should go back and watch it just skip to after the psycorp shit finishes the rest is good.
>>218644522every time someone posts one of these i think another glorp shitto review just dropped
>>218644697>he doesn't like the psi-corp
>>218644284No reason to, the false fanboy hatred of either show is silly. It's just direction brain retards who have to fight about everything. Both shows are worthy of praise for different reasons. I love B5 more but I would watch rewatch either in a heartbeat over 99% of what has been made in the last 20 years.
>>218644730Psi-corp is cool, dime store fabio on the other hand is an abomination.
>>218644805Don't even think about him. But Psi-corp is amazing just because of Bester.
>>218644840He was the best human foil in the show. Every scene he was in he stole the show. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s72fJb7a-s8
>>218644957every show should have a dark sassy fag as a villain
>>218644562>Two instead of oneBasically this. Watched both, enjoyed both. I feel like each brings their own enjoyment.
I just marathoned a shit ton of Babylon 5 and have liked it, but got to season 5 and suddenly don't give a shit about finishing it. Is this normal?
>>218645177Pretty much. Season 5 particuarly the telepath arc is consideredthe weakest part of the show.
Things good about Babylon 5:-Zathras-G'Kar-Londo-Cartagia-The Psi-Corps-SheridanThat's it.I was going to list Lyta Alexander and Talia Winters, but then I never got to see them naked and I'm still butthurt about it.
>>218645177Make sure to watch "Sleeping in Light" then yeah, you're pretty much set.
>>218645275Only because executive interference didn't allow enough time for the storyline.
>>218645177If you're the guy that was making b5 threads talking about it we warned you multiple times that the first half of season 5 should be skipped. Get past the fabio psi fag stuff and it's good again.
>>218645382Just having those characters that look like escape from twin mountain rejects get introduced drained my will to continue>>218645405I am not, but I'll probably just watch it in the background at a slower pace
>>218645452I mean Escape to Witch Mountain.
>>218645452>he doesn't know why the final season is badDo some research fag.
>>218643343This. Honestly it put me off watching B5 for years because of how obnoxious the fans are. They won't shut up about DS9 sometimes. It sucks because it's a great show
>>218645177Yea it’s normal and you are a normal healthy human being, I wouldn’t worry about it
>>218645589And yet b5 fans keep to themselves and every time they make a thread about b5 a couple of star trek fags show up and shitpost all over it. You can fuck right off to hell with that gaslighting bullshit. We don't even think about ds9 until you fucks show up and ruin the vibe.
>>218645177yes, the telepath stuff in S5 is hot garbage. there are some kino episodes still but they're not related to any of that shit. the problem was they got told the show was ending after season 4, so they condensed some storylines to wrap it up, then they said actually we'll greenlight a S5 and they'd eaten a lot of episodes that should have been there. then a maid threw a bunch of scripts in the trash (seriously) and they had to scramble to rewrite them with no reference.power through and then the series finale is 11/10 kino.
>>218642619Bruh. JMS literally brought his script to Paramount and they rejected it, only for Paramount to come up with their own space station show when Star Trek had always been about mobile space ships. The story beats are also almost the same. If you ever watched any BTS about Star Trek PRODUCTION (vs actors/sfx etc), you'll quickly find everyone involved from Gene downwards were assholes and shylocks with absolutely no morals. Here's one example: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ZZRWWmDheEU&t=3418s&pp=ygUYc2hvdXQhIHN0dWRpb3Mgc3RhciB0cmVrAfter watching that, do you still think Star Trek producers didn't steal from JMS?
>>218645529My idea of research for a show is hearing enough good will to justify watching it and then stopping if I don't like it.
>>218645837I hope a black man rapes you in the shower.
>>218645874I don't see how you plan to get into my shower, but I'm not interested
>>218645833Sorry chud there is no video evidence of the CEO of CBS admitting on camera that he personally stole the ideas so that means it couldn't possibly have happened behind closed doors. Please ignore the fact that production companies had a long history of doing just that and there was a huge rework of how shows were greenlit just to keep it from happening in the future.
>>218642619>everything is a ripoff unless its something im obsessed withLiterally moviebob tier.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mtaDXnB1YsAanalfist knows better though. Pretty funny how he was so asshurt about Witcher being a Elric (which sucks) ripoff but this doesn't count.
>>218646124Everything is a ripoff. There's nothing original.All stories have been done hundreds if not thousands of years ago.
>>218646132This is standard practice with studios too.
>>218646210I think there's a difference from two stories being "the hero's journey" or whatever and two stories having major similarities after holding on to the other's script for a year. So would any judge or lawyer probably. You could always put it in really vague terms and say it doesn't count though
>>218643716There are no gay characters in the show. He would not enjoy it
Fact is, JMS shopped a space station show to Paramount and they turned it down. Then he started working on bringing B5 to filming and suddenly, out of fucking nowhere, for the first and only time in the IP’s history, Star Trek decided to do a show based on a space station and not a ship. Maybe it’s not a rip off but the timing is super suspicious n’est ce pas?
>>218645773calm down
>>218646210Show me where the story of the Guy Pierce movie ‘Memento’ was done hundreds of years ago then.
>>218643554>Apparently JMS keeps bringing it up.when
>>218646729Not to anyone with a brain. It's an obvious move if they're going to have two Star Trek shows running at once.
>>218646787>he thinks the concept of a man losing his memories and doing things over again was invented 20 years ago
>>218646729Only to someone with a brain. NPCs will just eat up shit and not ask questions.
>>218645833>After watching that, do you still think Star Trek producers didn't steal from JMS?I don't care.
>>218646848And before the Kurtzman era destroyed the Star Trek IP, how many other times did they have 2 or more shows running simultaneously?
>>218645837Based remember to ignore things that feel shilled
>>218647871During the 90s they almost always had two shows running at the same time.
>>218647871Are you retarded?
IT'S A LIE IT DIDN'T HAPPENhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sr0BVKb9Am0
>>218643412>B5 fans don't even think about you.Just all of my keks
>>218646729>n’est ce pas?I always thought DS9 was a copy of B5, but if someone who speaks French thinks so I am inclined to disagree.The French are crepey
>>218648516Kek.Kek on the (unintended?) pun.
>>218648554Life's a joke so you need to make oneYou know why women wear make-up and perfume?Because they are ugly and they smell bad
>>218646729It's way more than just a space station. DS9 ripped off character names like Dukat. Ripped off having a small, tough ship turning the tide with the defiant being a knockoff White Star. Ripped off the commander being turned into a religious icon. Ripped off the secretive advanced aliens infiltrating and influencing Earth's leaders. And more. It's so blatant, it's ridiculous.
>>218649995I mean you're joking right? Havin a giggle?
>>218646132Wasn't Elric a sickly nerd descended from dragons who evolved into humanoids and rules over an evil empire? While Geralt was a human who was unfortunately destined to become a Witcher and subjected to tortuous mutations and experiments, trained to be a weapon and taught magic to fight against monsters in order to protect humans?I don't know much about the Elric books, but the Elric guy and Geralt share some superficial similarities, usually in looks, but they are quite different.
>>218652768Yeah that whole thing is silly especially when there are tons of actual Elric ripoffs out there that nobody talks about.
