The scenes with Jeffrey Sinclair...


Am I mistaken or have they totally been taken out of Season 1 "A Sky Full of Stars"? I watched that season recently and noticed the resemblance...

I really miss that actor. Is he only doing theatre now? I would love to see him doing something again on the big screen. I would even be satisfied with guest appearances...

According to JMS at http://www.midwinter.com/lurk/countries/us/guide/111.html, yes, it's archive footage.

A few other parts of the movie are archive footage. Some of Delen's scenes at the misunderstanding that started the Earth-Membari war are also from series episodes.

I think so, but some scenes were re-shot so it dovetailed more nicely into the movie.

There are clips from several episodes.

"And the Sky Full of Stars", Most of Sinclair's stuff, although most of the visual fx are new
"Atonement", The scene's concerning Delenn at Dukat's death
"A Late Delivery from Avalon", The shot's of Dick York's character firing at the Mimbari at the first encounter
"War without End", John and Delenn in prison.

I think that's all of it. For the most part the old footage and the new stuff meshes together pretty well.
