Babylon 5: In the Beginning (1998)

The first and the best of the B5 TV movies. Set ten years before the TV Series, it tells the full story behind the Earth/Minbari war. Much of it has been revealed in snippets before, but seeing it like this, in flashback, told from the last days of [spoiler], makes it extra special. Fans will know what happens seconds after the credits roll; the narrator knows... he's always known.
Why is there no Mr Garibaldi? They could've made him a wig.

NOTE: Despite what the title suggests, this should NOT be watched before the series, it should be watched after the 5 years have finished.
