Anyways, on said message board, these people were saying how they couldn't believe Peter Jackson had the audacity to rip off Babylon 5 the way he did with his LotR movies!!

I saw a "news" article to this effect once, but it was firmly tongue-in-cheek! I think some people must have taken it seriously! It was on a site that also featured the appearance of Boromir and Faramir's OTHER brother, Jar-Jaromir! (complete with grafted Jar-Jar onto Boromir's body...ack!). You know, I suppose as many people could claim that Straczynski stole from Star Trek: Deep Space Nine (both on a space station--similarity ends there).
Anyway, I've strayed far from topic now, so back to it...I used to be part of a radio show long ago that I didn't even remember had a LOTR reference in it until I went back and reviewed some old scripts. Whenever we wanted to pretend we were broadcasting from a pretentiously named "ballroom" as in the days of old time radio remotes, our pretentious ballroom was the
Aragorn Ballroom! Heh heh!
