But how much of that kilometer is uninhabitable "spire". Personally, I think the building height for the records only ought to count the highest enclosed, inhabitable and fully finished (exterior AND interior) level. Beyond that it's just stacking tables and chairs to beat the other guy.

There was a Mercedes that cut him off, so he tried to draw a penalty.

ha...You're funny! Wrong, but funny

The watch's earth is spinning the wrong way.

I hear breitbart is serving orphan liver for dinner, go bug them.

Monorail? That's more of a Shelbyville idea.

Of course, "student athlete" doesn't mean the same thing as it does in the US, which is the ONLY country in the world where sports are as central to university life. Everywhere else in the world, colleges and universities are places where everyone goes to study, and sports are left for small clubs that play and…

I think we know what needs to be done.

Yes, precisely! I never had a problem with the special effects, but the camera work... ye ghods! I never understood the importance of camera work and good cuts etc until watching the first season of B5. It took me awhile to figure out what it was, but everything just felt abrupt and off and wrong, and I finally…

Back in the day, they were amazing.

Apparently her diagnosis came after filming had stopped. This marks the first time in the recorded history of the internet that anyone has ever been wrong about anything.

Plus, Babylon 5 helped usher in an era of sci-fi space combat with Newtonian Physics instead of WWII-in-Space, Star Wars style space combat. I mean, I'm a Star Wars nerd and all but gotta love me some Starfury tumble-over and read-facing-shot manoeuvring.

Back in the day those FX blew us away. There were Return of the Jedi scale space battles on TELEVISION!

Here! Here! Gotta agree, growing up those large scale battles we're extraordinary. I guess people might have just seen the first series, I remember some pretty janky explosions very early on. But by the time the Shadows wake up all sleepy-eyed with murderous rage that CGI got pretty impressive and still holds up well.

"Lost" after the second season the title refers to the writers, not the characters.

At the time, the effects were about the best around. Sure the practical effect from TNG, etc. aged better, but they lso couldn't pull off the large scale space sequences B5 had either. Note how DS9 went to using the B5 effects studio to pull off the Dominion War.

WARNING: YOU WILL FALL IN LOVE WITH ALL OF THESE CHARACTERS AND EVERYTHING ABOUT THE WORLD(S) THEY EXIST IN, AND THEN THEIR AWESOMENESS WILL BE TAKEN AWAY FROM YOU OBNOXIOUSLY PREMATURELY...until you watch the movie "Serenity"...THEN SEVERAL OF THE PEOPLE YOU LOVE THE MOST WILL BE TAKEN AWAY FROM YOU...

I loved B5's effects.

Now THAT looks amazing.
