JMS to bring B5 Reboot to the Big Screen?

Saw this on Ars today:

Still in the maybe phase, but JMS seems confident that he can make it happen this time around.  Maybe he has crowdfunding in the back of his mind if WB passes?

Very cool.  I loved B5.  With the low budget of the original TV show, it's hard to see how a movie could look worse.  Yeah, I came to the conclusion that movie production is done at a much lower standard than premium television.
