<PRE> Basically, any attempt to break down the B5 story into pure good vs.
|
|
pure evil is going to fall apart sooner or later. The thematic elements
|
|
point to greyer areas: will you lead, or will you be led by others? What is
|
|
your responsibility to the world around you, and how far will you go before
|
|
you do something drastically wrong? The key themes in this show are choice,
|
|
and responsibility.
|
|
|
|
How different would this story be if Londo had simply chosen *not* to go
|
|
the easy way and go to Mr. Morden? We are here because he made certain
|
|
choices, and now he has to live with them. Actions have consequences.
