Driven by De Beers‘ manufactured value of diamonds, the story follows a robbery being investigated by police and an ugly insurance woman of some sort.

Maybe it gets better, but it’s slow and boring. Maybe I needed to see an extended-length pilot episode. This has John Hurt, but that’s not good enough for me. Maybe I should have given this more of a chance, but .. I’m not going to.

Has scenes spoken in the French language, with English subtitles. It takes place in France, so there are a lot.
Has scenes spoken in the Serbian language, with English subtitles.

Two youths struggle to survive in a world ruined by aliens.

A terrible movie, even and perhaps especially for science fiction, alien invasion or ruined world movie fans. It’s slow and plodding, with a crappy plot, and has no real “feel” to it.

An assassin doesn’t want to kill in front of a child.. and probably some other stuff.

This was way too slow for me to continue watching.

The feature-length movie and test pilot for Babylon 5 – (1994 show).

This is the first item to view in the Babylon 5 viewing order. See Babylon 5 binge 01 notes.

Properly titled Babylon 5: The Gathering
This is technically “film 0”, as it is the feature-length pilot episode.
Movie Box, cd 1 – Babylon 5 – The Gathering – (1993 movie)
- The first disk, which is labeled “1”. It is extremely important to get this right! Look at the number and title on the disk.
SPOILER ALERT – Although there is important information in the introduction to the station, I think it’s important to skip to 1:15.

People abandon Earth to flee to Mars, and a ship of three are sent with supplies to aid in recolonization.

I couldn’t get 20 minutes in because of the acting.

Oh the teeth on that woman (Dawn).
“Lab apple” wouldn’t be much of a concept for people born 330 years after Mars colonization.
How come Dawn and dude could be arguing and other woman wouldn’t come in then, but came in when she hallucinated.
The acting seems sub-par to me.
Oh gods the flashback type stuff annoys me.
With three people, this is pretty bland.
Hmm, waiting until 30, that sounds a lot like other population or resource-constraint movies that send people away.
Just how big is the ship? For three people, she sure has a lot of space.
Why would a few days be fucking people over like that? I bet it’s because they’re 30.
