Re: Best Intro
Did anyone watch Crusade? I never saw it but I haven't heard good things. The intro supported this.
What about Legend of the Rangers, The Lost Tales, all that stuff? Was any of that any good?
The universe was really cool, but I felt pretty satisfied with the end of the series.

Re: Best Intro
Personally, I enjoyed Crusade, Legend of the Rangers, and the second half of The Lost Tales (the first half was...well, I'll just say it wasn't JMS' best).

Re: Best Intro
Crusade was pretty meh, and the music sucked spectacularly.
The other two just sucked in general.

Re: Best Intro
Lost Tales wasn't great but wasn't bad for me either. Just fell in the meh zone. Crusade was much the same.
Legend of the Rangers had good people but the plot was such crap that no one could save it. That and the Kung fu Panda targeting system was worse then watching ENT!

Crusade had promise, but the premise was a bit shakey IMO, and its budget showed from time to time. Worth a watch, but it was no B5.Chris Propst wrote:Did anyone watch Crusade? I never saw it but I haven't heard good things. The intro supported this.

Re: Best Intro
They should have given JMS a year or two too write up a new story line. Instead the networks pushed it out as fast as they could get it. Leaving no room for growth.
