don't watch SGU, but I watched this episode for McKay. Turns out understanding the plot is important too :P so i had no clue what was going on. Just a warning to SGA fans who plan to do what i did
In the episode....That Colonel...said to Dr Mckay...if they(Earth) manage to dial Destiny....He wants Rodney Mckay to join the Destiny Expedition....THAT"S Cool... Maybe can bring along Dr Jackson, Dr Beckett, Teal'C, Ronan/Teyla and last..Colonel Sheppard........ for a season 3...the ratings should go up once again if they were in it......
i just watched this episode....and i must say...I do felt that FEEL of the old Stargate ATLANTIS/SG1 creeping back...haha...its great! Thanks Mckay....Thanks Mr woolsey....and thanks for that quote Colonel Young said, "Sheppard's right..." At least they still do remember the great Lt Colonel John Sheppard....
I can tell you now, if they try using Langera, the planet lined with naquadria vains, to dial Destiny, the planet will explode. "The instability of naquadria increases exponentially as you draw more power from it" - Jonas Quin SG1.
@littlemegamonkey Yes, but when you say 'basic level', what you mean is that the premise that is a literary classic. Beyond that vague premise, the show is absolutely nothing like Voyager. There were clowns calling Atlantis Stargate's answer to Voyager too. Instead of course we ended up with a show that did everything that SG-1 has already done, but worse. SG-1 and SGU are great in different ways, while SGA is just a poor man's SG-1.
@littlemegamonkey Hey... im looking forward to those movies... been really excited about them,.. but i still like SGU.. and now that SGUs done theres even less of a chance they'll be made.
@TopGunProductions Actually, I think there is more of a chance they'll be done! While SGu was going, any other Stargate-related stuff were put on the back of their mind. Now that they don't have to work on SGU anymore, they can work on the movies!
Now I'm not saying they will happen. Just that they don't have SGU as a restriction to work on it anymore.
Anyway, can't wait for Extinction! Hoping Jewel Staite will be back on it! And McKay: Of course he'll be in it! ^_^
@ChevaliersEmeraude It doesn't work like that I'm afriad. They were making progress on the movie up until SGU was cancelled, now it's on indefinite hold while they try and find a way to conclude SGU somehow. Plus, the Atlantis sets have already been torn down and most of the props have been auctioned off, including the gate itself.
@Jenks0001 Everything you say is true... except the ''they were making progress on the movie up until SGU was cancelled''. The truth is, they basically never worked on it while SGU was on. We wouldn't have got it anyway as long as SGU was playing. Not saying that we'll get one now that it is cancelled, just that while it wasn't cancelled, they didn't worked on it one bit!
@Jenks0001 Never said they gave up on it, just that they put it in the back while SGU was on. Now that it's off, they MIGHT (maybe yes, maybe no) bring it back up front again.
@ChevaliersEmeraude They've said that he cancellation puts the movie on hold indefintely, and Joe and Paul have already moved onto a new series. Mallozzi has said if fans want to know what happened then they should petition MGM to release the script, which says to me that he chances of it ever being made are practically nil. There only way I see it getting made is if Brad gets his SGU movie(s) first and the crew get back together. Though I wouldn't count on that happening either.
@Jenks0001 There's supposed to be an SGU movie? What the heck? I mean, granted, now the show is better than the first season was, but still?
And, like I said before, since the chance of the Atlantis movie being nil anyway while SGU was still going, I don't see much of a change compared to being nil now! :p
@ChevaliersEmeraude Brad Wright is apparently pushing for one, but nothing has been green lit, and I don't expect it to really. I'd be content with some canon novels to finish off both series to be honest.
I will watch this one for sure. Rodney will make such a diference. I really can´t stand the shaking camera, but I will watch this episode. Looking good Mckay!
so many people are saying that syfy are the ones that canceled this show but isnt the production company MGM the ones that canceled it because they have run into hard times....afterall syfy is just a channel showing sgu
@curruptedJimbo No. Syfy pay a significant part of the shows budget through their license fee, and they cancelled that, meaning the show ended. MGM came out of bankruptcy a while ago with $500 million dollars to spend, the show definitely didn't end because of them.
@thewewguy8t88 Corin Nemec said he would be playing an old character in a second incarnation of a show, I think it is pretty safe to say he is appearing.
@Jenks0001 Nemec said something about "visiting an old character in the third live action incarnation of a franchise". I remember something like that from Gateworld.
@ruotsionpaska Did he even say that though? The only place that is reporting it is Stargate Wikia, a site known for making up bullshit, and it doesn't even leave a source. I wouldn't get your hopes up. Behind the scenes images for the episode have already leaked, and there's no sign of him.
@shadealmighty They were asked if a jump in ratings could get the show back, and they said hypthetically yes, but it would take double or triple the current numbers, meaning 2 to 3 million. It simply won't happen I'm afraid :(
Please, could somebody help me and write me PM with the trascript, what the characters are saying? I am not a native English, so it would help me a lot =)
Ahem,People, if you wanted to know the truth about up coming episodes, go to Gateworld. lol, i knew mckay was gonna guest star for months now!!! i can't believe its next week :D!
Langara!!! Langara!!! oh shit I was already stoked in to watching this, but now I am further into watching this episode. Langara is Jonas Quinns planet. Will we see a former SG-1 member?!? This proves my theory that the Lucian alliance went to Langara to get the naquaria for their bomb on "Alliances"
@quizzisation Yeah, I heard that too! I don't know if it will actually happen, but I hope it does! The actor did say something about "[I] got back into the boots of an old character in the third incarnation of a franchise". I don't see how this points to this particular episode, but I'm still excited!
@quizzisation I hope so, and man. My need for some good stargate has now been fixed. No hate towards sgu, but after waiting on the movies to come out, and watching reruns of SGA and SG-1 for a long time. SGU recently has desereved the name Stargate. And of all things its proved recently that it does deserve a thrid season
@wti5280 Yeah.. but you see, it's also the community's fault, mostly. 1) Too many people were either so loyal to the first two series (SG1 & SGA) either didn't like the format or execution of SGU.. and 2) the old timers wanted to not give the show any viewership simply out of spite. It is such a shame too, that it took the show this long to build up the kind of momentum it now has. Also, by episode 2x14, they finally, FINALLY had humor... something the show needed from the very start.
@rkmugen I agree 100%. There were just way to many fans that couldn't get over the fact that it was more of a drama based series, so they just had their minds already made up that "this just isn't Stargate at all, i'm not gonna watch this"...And now THEY are the main reason we may not see another installment in the SG franchise. I'm just mad at SYFY because i think if they would've given it one more season, it would grow on people.
@kennyalancramer One thing that is boggling my mind though....If you think this show was a "soul sucking 45 minutes of self-centered behavior", then why would you even have watched THIS video in the first place? Do you like having your soul sucked since you probably don't get anything else sucked?...your turn =D
@wti5280 hehehe you're totally right... I must admit... I watched cause I was curious when I saw a news article with titled something like "Stargate Universe and Stargate Atlantis Cross Over Episode" and I just couldn't imagine the two shows existing in the same universe... I love SG1, but I didn't like SGA that much and definitely hated SGU...
@kennyalancramer Wow... i meant my last comment to be humorous but now that i look at it again, i sound like every other ass on youtube lol sorry about that one. I was just curious why you would've watched it if you hated it. I guess im just a die hard SG fan nonetheless and just don't want to see the franchise end :(
@wti5280 no sorry it's not syfys fault, it's all those little pricks that bitched about the show because it didn't fit with what their opinion of 'Stargate" should be without realizing that just watching more of the same means that they've barely progressed in terms of predilection and opinion since they were unwashed, sweaty little masturbating adolescents. I'd like to jam a life sized cutout of their beloved SG-1 team up the arse of every one of them,.
@circusmort Very well put! =D i've been a huge fan of all the stargate series. and while SGU is nothing like SG-1, it is still a great show with great actors and a very promising plot. So i agree with you 100% =)
