What’s the best fan creation you’ve seen for B5?

Following the copyright question post it got me thinking.

Obviously we don’t have longer-form fan productions like full blown Trek movies or whatnot, but there’s still some media out there regardless.

Whats the best of it that you’ve seen, in your opinion?

(Any medium: YouTube channel, piece of fanart, ship design, fanfic, meme, parody, etc?)

Recommend me some Let’s Plays of Lovecraftian games (like Dredge.)

Watching on an old iPad, looking for some recommendations of Lovecraftian Let’s Plays.

I quite enjoyed watching a Dredge playthrough, but any genre of game is on the table if the streamer is good.

(Another example, albeit not Lovecraft, was the Dead Space remake which was great fun to watch.)

Lesser known movies with Space Marines?

Like Starship Troopers, or Ultramarines 40k.

Or like The Expanse or Space:Above & Beyond for TV shows.

Live action or animated or anime. (Or even a good “Let’s Play”.)

I’ve seen most of the usual contenders. Maybe something slipped through the cracks though, and I haven’t seen too many animes.

What is the syndrome or feeling called when someone erroneously believes everyone and everything they see online is AI/LLM despite being answered or replied to by a human?

Can you articulate the fine line between when you give someone the ‘benefit of the doubt’ and when they cross it?

An example, a phrase, an experience. Etc. The moment when someone crossed it. (Real or figurative.)

Quick question: planned 4 seasons w/ s2 renewal? Or?

Just curious, is it a planned four seasons with only season 2 renewed or is that info wrong?

(Ie. more seasons planned and/or it has multiple seasons already secured?)

Who else didn’t really like this guy at the start, but as you grew older liked him and more and more?

Preface this with: I like both Sheridan and Sinclair.

I’ve said before,

Sinclair has gravitas.

Sheridan has charisma.

***

Originally I liked Sheridan a lot more than Sinclair.

But.

As I got older and the late 90s got further and further away, I started to appreciate season 1 more and more.

And I found myself liking Sinclair more and more perhaps as a consequence of that, or perhaps because. His calmer demeanour, stoicism, even his relationship with Sakai has grown on me over the decades. (Having been in my own long-term on again/off again relationship helped see to that…)

Of course I can’t help wondering what we could’ve had, had he been able to stay on. But this isn’t about that.

TL;DR

What I’m curious about, is if anyone has had a similar growth or flip of the character over the years/decades?

Did he grow on you, or did you like him from the get-go; maybe just lukewarm? Or do you frankly not care for him at all?

Quick Question: what ep does Sheridan get bamboozled by the reporter and says they lost the war only to be reminded they “won” the war?

The Minbari surrendered so humanity “won” the war.

Can’t remember the episode offhand, but I love that turnaround. It so perfectly encapsulates the “truth” vs the reality and how easy it is to obfuscate.

Been having issues, particularly tonight.

Both either won’t even load the video I’m trying to watch or it’s stuck to 360p.

(Firefox and Ublock require iOS versions higher than this tablet can get.)

Anyone using older iOS versions have any suggestions?

Some examples because I’ve acquired a few.

Coffee. Hated it at first, eventually enjoyed it after having it once a week for a few months. (Honourable mention: black coffee, still prefer cream but can live without it.)

Beer. Did the movie style spit-take first time I had it. Tried three different beers each night at whatever local pub was close to the hotel for a few months each year on some work-trips with beer-drinking coworkers ‘til I got a taste for it.

Spicy foods. Hated spicy food until I was 25, then decided to acquire it. Spent a few weeks building my tolerance with pickled banana/jalapeño peppers. Could only handle a nibble at first then a few weeks/month or so later had to stop eating a third of the jar in one sitting.

You?

Preferably looking for someone who is great at the game, but doesn’t cut out the story.

Commentary or no-commentary is fine. Ideally not a lot of time spent chatting and just sticks to the game though. (Not a lot of answering chat.)

Keep seeing the game(s) highly recommended but know I won’t ever play it myself. Would like to experience it (and Silksong) regardless.
