Michael Straczynski in 1993, Babylon 5 became a Sci-Fi cult fan favorite and a top rated show. Now in 2007, Warner Home Video (WHV) and Warner Bros. Television (WBTV) will take you to 2271 A.D. for Babylon 5: The Lost Tales,a made-for-video movie featuring the original cast including Bruce Boxleitner (&#8220;President John Sheridan&#8221;), Tracy Scoggins (&#8220;Captain Elizabeth Lochley&#8221;) and Peter Woodward (&#8220;Galen&#8221;). Babylon 5: The Lost Tales will be released on July 31, 2007 for $24.98, making it the first WHV made-for-video title for one of their popular TV franchises.<\/p>\n<p>Written and directed by show creator J. Michael Straczynski, this made-for DVD movie is a spectacular vision of B5 and New York City in the 23rd century as it uses the most innovative filmmaking technology, which was unavailable during the original series.<\/p>\n<p>On an immense space station built by the Earth Alliance, the crew of Babylon 5 is charged with maintaining the peace among the various alien races by providing a sanctuary where grievances and negotiations can be worked out among duly appointed ambassadors. Babylon 5: The Lost Tales picks up the dramatic series in 2271A.D, ten years after John Sheridan is appointed President of the Interstellar Alliance.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The first installment of Babylon 5: The Lost Tales, will be going on sale 31 July.&nbsp; It must be mine!
