Aww, no need to apologize~ I like when people actually interact with me, haha. And thanks for the offer, but I’ve actually got it, I’ve just never watched it! Same with all the movies, actually. one glorious day.
:) As do I.
I actually REALLY enjoyed the pilot movie. It’s got some great Londo in it and G’Kar flounces at, like, mach 10. Everyone is so awkward and unrefined in both look and character, yet they’re somehow the same people. It’s like looking at a good friend’s highschool photos and laughing at their dumb haircut together.
That’s fascinating, I love this analogy.
I’ve been doing a rewatch with my friend tinsnip (well, it’s her first watch, and my rewatch jesusfuck i just finished it and i’m going again), and I’ve been finding the early versions of the characters to be almost distressing! The first few episodes, and even starting into Season 2, I’m sitting here saying stuff like, ‘Wow, please just trust me about G’Kar’ all the time. I had forgotten how far he came, and how much my feelings for him (and pretty much everyone) changed!
Definitely one of the biggest comments I get from people who are watching this show because of me, “I am not sure what you see in G’Kar, but I’m just gonna keep going…” Because, yeah, wow, that man is some High Octane Flounce early on. I’ll have to brace myself for mach 10.
I find pilot Delenn fascinating though, I really wish they’d been able to do what they wanted with it. I think about what we might have seen if that had gone off the original way.
And then pilot Londo and G’Kar are terrifying looking, but in different ways.
One glorious day, I will do this thing.
