Kraxis posted:I systematically binged through all of SG-1 a few years ago, in fact I think I caught up as season 10 was airing. I remember they were making a feature length stargate film set after the season 10 had ended? Did that ever happen and was it any good? There were two SG1 movies. Ark of Truth wraps up the Ori storyline. Continuum involves Baal, and is therefore awesome. Both are good actually.

I thought Jack and Daniel were my favourite duo in the franchise. But now that I'm rewatching Atlantis for the first time, I realize how wrong I was. McKay and Shepard are fantastic together!

Drizzt01 posted:The McCay in Atlantis is better than him in Sg1. Teyla sucked fairly consistently. In honour of the demise of the Stargate franchise, I've been rewatching my favourite episodes of SG1 and Atlantis. Turns out, that's more episodes than I initially thought. McKay is easily my favourite character from the franchise. The rapport between McKay and Shepard was fantastic. If only the show wouldn't have had Teyla and Weir, the main cast would've been perfect. richardfun fucked around with this message at 22:24 on Jun 5, 2011 |

General Emergency posted:Teyla does pretty effectively suck the fun out of anything. I remember in one episode she got mad at Shepard when he promised so save some colonists "if he could". What? As opposed to what? If he magically farts out a causality bending unicorn and saves them even if he can't? Yes, that one truly sucked. I wanted to strangle her every time she used the words 'my people' in that whiny voice.

Just rewatched Continuum, and I dunno if I missed something but I'm confused. Mitchell goes back to 1929, using Baals time machine. He gets himself onto grandpa's ship in 1939, and helps thwart Baals plan. What then happened to Mitchell, being stuck in 1939? Did he just live out his days there, and was 'another' Cam Mitchell born because his granddad was still alive?

Minimaul posted:Yeah, that was a good two-parter. The last episode I watched was "Before I sleep", looks like it's episode 15. McKay is starting to grow on me. I'm sure he stays the same, he was an insufferable prick on SG-1 (which I'm sure was the point in the episodes he was in), so looks like he'll find his quirky little niche in Atlantis. The banter between Sheppard and McKay is some of the best stuff the Stargate franchise has produced, in terms of character chemistry.

Captain Vittles posted:Tits go in the pilot because then people will likely watch every subsequent episode for at least one season, with the faint hope of seeing more tits. After all, they showed tits once... or it might just be a pre-req for getting a pilot through the TV bureaucracy. I don't know how the TV business works but I do know that, in my younger years, the tits rationale worked on me for lots of shows/movies. Yeah, but I'm guessing your younger years were before the internet? I remember the Fa deodorant commercials always showing topless women walking out of the sea (any Dutch person over 25 knows what I'm talking about). But that was before a picture of a pair of breasts was easier to find than a dickish Ancient.

Minimaul posted:Finished season 2 of Atlantis last night and got through episode 1 of season 3 before I had to go to bed. The later half of season 2 got way better to me. I'm sure I was a little burned out too, after going through all 10 seasons of SG-1 then straight into Atlantis, so it took me a bit to get through season 2 as I was easily distracted. But caught some more episodes and I was digging most of what I watched. The McKay and Sheppard interactions are great (as someone pointed out earlier, I think). What did you get spoiled on?

Minimaul posted:I also just finished SGU and I thought it was pretty solid all the way through. I'm not sure if I have a favorite of the three or how I would rank them. All three shows are a giant blur and I can't remember much from any of them. All in all I was overly impressed with Stargate and like it a lot more than I thought I would, so it was well worth the couple month long binge through all 3 shows. I'm a bit jealous, tbh. I wish I could watch it all again for the first time.

Pesticide20 posted:On a whim the other day I started going through SG-1 from the very beginning, because all though I've seen most of the show, I've never watched it all the way through from the beginning to end. I just got the beginning of season three, and I honestly can't believe that the season finale for two was a clip show... Oh well. I am absolutely loving the show so far, especially 1969. Ugh, they sure were a fan of clip shows. It worked out ok a few times though, like the episode where the system lords come over to negotiate a treaty with Earth and the Asgards.

DirtyRobot posted:Speaking of Stargate affecting other things... the sound effect for the lock mechanism on the doors in SGC (at least in the early seasons of SG1) is the same sound effect as the iPhone's camera when you snap a photo. Also, don't know if anybody here watches Spartacus but for some reason, the onagers in that show sound either like the blast from a staff weapon or the gun fire from a goauld ship.

Red Robin Hood posted:I loved the new BSG and I'm a huge Star Wars fan so I think I might like this quite a bit. I've got a lot of free time lately so I'd like to fill the gap, heh! This will definitely fill that gap. Let's see. Ten seasons of SG1 with each season (roughly) containing 22 episodes at 42 minutes. So that's 154 hours of tv right there. Atlantis has five season if I recall, so that's another 77 hours. You get the idea.

abstemious posted:I've nearly finished SGA season 1. I don't really have a problem with Weir so far (though I preferred the other actress who played her first in SG1). Teyla is terrible and there are too many scientific prima donnas, with the doctor being the worst of them. I've warmed to McKay a lot after finding him a bit insufferable for the first few episodes. I have to admit I don't care much for Sheppard at this point: he seems like a bit of a B-rate Luke Wilson so far. Sheppard and McKay become better and better.

After seeing a bunch of people mention it in here, I decided to give Farscape a try. I've only seen the first episode, but I don't think I can watch this. The floating little king, the warrior with the flesh goatee, it all just looks terrible. It's like one step removed from Thunderbirds.

I recently got Netflix, and when I saw Atlantis on there, I decided I'd watch some of the best episodes. Your Tao of Rodney, your The Game, your The Shrine, and all the season premieres and finales (because boy, do I love me some space battles). Then, I started to check out which other episodes I had fond memories of. Now I've watched every single one, except for two that are mainly about Teyla. Before now, I didn't know I missed this franchise so much. And I can't even drown my sorrows with SG-1, because that isn't on Netflix for some reason... richardfun fucked around with this message at 22:50 on Mar 23, 2014 |
