You afraid you are going to embarrass your starbucks friends? B5 movies are movies in every sense of the word movie. They didn't sit in the made for tv series DVD section at Best Buy, they sat in the movie section. As for BoB, you fail to notice a difference, that was a mini-series, and sat in the tv series section. Distribution doesn't make something into a movie, otherwise bugs bunny cartoons would be on your list too since they use to be played in theaters as well as news reels were.

Anyway, they are stand alone movies, not a part of the B5 season list, and were aired as movies apart from the series airings. You could know nothing about the series and watch the movies and grasp that they are movies. Then they sold as movies in the DVD movie section.
