As much as I liked Atlantis and Universe to some extent, I think the city was wasted. They had unlimited potential for stories due to crazy ancient tech. They just never really did though. It was always like a self destruct or a virus.

Those stories were fun, but traipsing through the city corridors week after week uncovering more and more Ancient technology would get old. How many times do we need to find out that they developed something awesome with a deadly achilles heel? It's a shame they could never really show the scale of the city internally, it would have been nice to have corridors like streets. The size of it externally vs all the TV-sized corridors made it feel like an endless apartment block rather than a city. But I guess there's not much you can do about it on a TV budget.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7tOqWKMy2QM Gateworld has a new video, and info that Brad Wright has been in talks with MGM about the return of Stargate. With Travelers being done, maybe things are lined up for something new.

Honestly at this point if they're making new stargate I'd rather see a hard reboot of SG-1 than a sequel series.* I'd still want to show to be a 20 episode a season series though, because that gave toe old shows breathing room to introduce cool stuff that didn't directly tie into the goa'uld plot. *The exception is Teal'C PI. I'd watch 8 seasons of Christopher Judge solving mysteries.

I'd like to see a Stargate show take place shortly after Stargate Command abandoned the Pegasus galaxy. At this point they can build warp capable ships and have a map of untouched planets obtained from the ancient library that the goa'uld never touched. So why not do a little exploring? Are there other planets where humans were taken and left unscathed by Goa'uld, Replicators, and Ori? Are there more systems like where advanced beings like the Ashen, lizard people or Nox lived? Who or what are the Furlings and is it possible to track them down? They can expand more on the freed Jaffa from Goa'uld. I can't help but think there are still Goa'uld strongholds that managed to slip through the cracks of all the chaos in the milky way. So much to expand on that we don't need another over bearing enemy to focus a show on. DrNutt posted:Don S. Davis ijii fucked around with this message at 03:08 on Feb 10, 2019 |

I watched the Stargate movie for the first time and it was pretty good. The idea of the intersection between six stars being a coordinate reminds me of linear algebra class from years ago.

I've been resistant to a SG1 reboot but the longer it's been, the more issues we'd get with a straight up series sequel. I'm down for a reboot where the Stargate program is public knowledge.

All they gotta do is say that the stargate program was shut down after Destiny disappeared and now it’s how ever many years later and something happens where it needs to be re opened.

Or fallout from Atlantis uncloaking, and the Stargate Program has been in politic hell for the last few decades and it's going to be a global effort and based out of somewhere else now. If they still have the set they could move it back there after a few episodes after some gate crashers show up.

They struck all the sets and sold off all the SG props and assets a few years ago. Wright said last year that if they revive the franchise they'd have to build almost everything new. I think even the original gate was hosed up as well, didn't they build a new one for Origins?

I think StarGate has pretty much mined every possible interesting idea or plotline by now. The old universe is basically Star Trek at this point and just completely uninteresting. What new threat could they possibly come up with that a fleet of Asgard powered human ships or the endless science labs in Atlantis couldnt deal with (Please god no more replicators). We've already seen how the public would respond to the stargate program in that Aschen episode...as long as they get cool teleporters the public doesnt give a poo poo. A reboot is, at best, just going to cover the same ground the other shows did only worse. Like the upcoming 2nd Battlestar galactica reboot. What is there left to say?

BSG had a lot of 9/11 - Iraq allegories. What's the equivalent of that today? Trump, gamergate, build the wall, etc? That could be interesting for BSG but also insufferable.

I don't want to go all fanfic but a new series would give them a chance to change a few things and tell new stories. Maybe do more with the conflict between the system lords, or have the Stargate made public after the first or second season and deal with that fallout, take it international sooner, etc. The first BSG reboot wasn't just "Battlestar galactica but not the 70s" so there's no reason an SG-1 reboot would just rehash everything again.

I still want them to rebuild the Atlantis sets, at least the main ones. Then say it decloaked in SF Bay shortly after we last saw it in 2009. So now it's present day and the home of the new Stargate program that's public knowledge.
