Lyta, every time I've seen your name, I've thought of Lyta Alexander from B-5. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
The first similarities I noticed between it and LotR were the Sheridan thing, and the fact that there are Rangers on B-5. Also, in LotR we have the white council, and the Minbari on B-5 have a grey council. The most ridiculous thing I've ever seen on the net was a B-5 message board. I was searching the net several weeks ago to find more similarities between B-5 and LotR, cuz I figured I was probably missing some. 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!! As if all of that didn't come from the books, which came long before
B-5! [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img] Poor, confused people!

Anyways, back on topic. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]
I have the computer game Riven, which I think got it's name from Rivendell, and there's also a Mirkwood Flooring and Interiors not too far from where I live!
