B5 TLT is sales rank 8 on Amazon's DVD section!!!! Thats a pretty impressive jump back up as it dropped pretty low in the lull after the pre-order came out. Uber cool. Me thinks it will sell pretty well.

Btw posted here since ther TLT forum gets little traffic.

I just want to say, I have not preordered the copy as some of the video stores usually get them in the first or second day they are out, so I end up getting them later if I preorder from amazon sometimes. However in the rare ocassion I do not get it until later and some of you see it first, I absolutely prohibit any of you from starting duscussion threads about it, even with spoiler tags until AFTER I've seen it. I will NOT have the willpower to resist not looking at the spoilers and people WILL die as a result. Is that understood? ;)

I actually discovered that my Amazon pre-order was cancelled due to a change in credit card information. Doh! So I will likely have to give in and pick it up in a retail store. It is a terrible day when the administrator of a fansite no longer tops their visitors. ;)

I think I will still order it from Amazon simply because the only store that I think will carry it in my immediate area is Suncoast (http://www.suncoast.com/), and they violate you without even holding you afterwards when it comes to price. ;)

Suncoast prices suck. Ocasionally they offer rebates bringing the cost closer to amazons. But last time I ordered the BSG S2 DVD set I was waiting for like a week while Suncoast had it there all the time. For S2.5 I just went straight to Suncoast. I'm not taking my chances this time. I'm going straight to Suncoast rather than risk waiting, even if they totally violate me at the cash register.

Perhaps they will give you a hug afterwards if you ask nicely. ;)

Mine still hasn't shipped.

Mine hasn't either, which is unusual as amazon have taken the longer shipping time into account in the past.

I only got word that it shipped this morning. It probably really went out yesterday or the day before, since no one ships anything on sunday.

Low quality soundtrack previews there :)

Seems like mostly cues, but Franke's cues have always been top notch :P

I have the score and I most say that it is the music we have all come to love with a twist. There are some new instruments here and there and a lot of new cues.

I read someones review on Amazon, complaining about the shortness of the tracks. Exactly what is this guy thinking? This is just a "single episode" CD not a series collection. Pretty much all of Franke's scores are made up of cues, except he usually mashes them together in a handful of tracks as opposed to a 20 odd track listing.

Random Chaos

Mine shipped today!

If it shipped locally, could be here in 2 days. Amazon's estimate is the 7th; I don't believe them. They are either way over or way under, usually :D

I have my wife down to the last two discs of Season 5...then I have to decide whether or not to race her through Crusade before watching TLT...

I may just have to abstain from these boards until I watch it, if we decide to wait!!!

Mine is shipped, but it says I gotta wait longer than I thought..

I have it in hand! I just have to wait till I get home to watch it! <ack>

Popped it into my laptop to look at the splash screen and first few seconds ~ wow.

It came with a little G'Kar/Franklin comic that was well done. :)
