Babylon 5: The son of Sheridan, Jar Jar Sheridan. We live for the one, we die for the one.

Fans Outraged at New Character in Babylon 5:

New Jersey - A recently leaked outline of the opening scene in the upcoming Babylon 5 movie, Babylon 5 -TMOS has fans outraged over the apparent addition of a new character - Jar Jar Sheridan. The scene in the outline describes Jar Jar Sheridan inside a White Star shouting, "Shadowsa returnsa";
he then trips over the controls and thereby shoots down a couple of Shadow vessels.

Producers of the upcoming Babylon 5 movie confirmed the addition of the son of Sheridan and Delenn.

"While the DVD releases of the series is performing better at the box office than we expected, we are worried about a demographic that is skewing much older than desired. More mature fans are very good to have, but it's the younger fans who buy the merchandise. That's really what brings in the bucks on a movie like this," said producer J. Michael Straczynski.

"People complained a lot about Vir just being there for comic relief in the series," continued Straczynski. "We answer that criticism by directing the humor through Jar-Jar Sheridan in Babylon 5 TMOS. There's this funny scene where Jar-Jar decides it's best to give up Babylon 5 to the Shadows, but then he accidentally blows up all the jump points when they are about to enter B5 space, because he pushed on the wrong button. Hi-larious."

Purists, miffed by the changes in Babylon 5, were so enraged by Jar-Jar as to be rendered speechless. A less pure, calmer fan who was able to form words said, "Straczynski mentioned a lot of different races and creatures, but never a Gungan or even a half-Gungan. I think I'm going to vomit."

One fan tried to rationalize the move. "Maybe the Star Wars universe and the Babylon 5 universe intersect. Babylon 5 takes place in our galaxy and why couldn't it be the neighbour galaxy to the Star Wars one? In a galaxy far, far away indeed, because all galaxies are far apart." He then broke down and started crying.

Director Mike Vejar explained how the Jar-Jar character was added after all the other footage had already been shot. "That's the brilliant thing about digital editing and graphics. We didn't even imagine Jar-Jar in the movie until a couple of weeks ago, but now we can just edit him right into the key scenes. I really think it's going to be a hit with the toddlers."

Vejar added, "I just love it when he shouts, 'Yousa steala freedomsa from meesa!'"

Babylon 5: Catfight - Ivanova vs Lochley

Babylon 5: Dogs to the rescue

The article in the other post was rewritten from a similar one about Lord of the Rings.

Anders, that gag was better in the ROTK spoof, but it still works. Somebody needs to photoshop some pictures, though.

I know it was better with LOTR, but mostly because I was the one who rewrote this one, and I'm probably a lot less funny than the guy who originally wrote it for LOTR.

I was first just going to do the B5 movie title with Jar Jar, but then I remembered the article, and I thought it would be fun to see a B5 version of the article.
