I'm glad that they replaced the movie wormhole with their own.

That way, they can further distance themselves from the great original movie.

All this stupid series manages to do is taint the movie.

personaly i think your wrong. the original film was ok at best! i think it is the TV show that has pulled the film out of the ditch it was in!

[DuracellEnergizer]

The movie was never in any ditch.

And I can list a number of reasons why the movie is more than "okay" and why I believe SG-1 to be inferior.

But due to lack of space, I won't listing them all. But here's a couple:

Ra is a better villain than any of the villains on SG-1. He's creepy and mysterious. The Goa'uld are corny and inept.

Staff weapons are more powerful & impressive in the movie.

No aliens speak English.

well it is my opinion that it was in a ditch. i love stargate SG1 and apparntly a hell of alot of people agree with me (maybe not all of them about the film) because Stargate SG-1 is the longest running sci-fi series MGM (and prob most others) have ever had! it is a massive hit with a huge fan base.

as to your reasons i agree with the talking english bit that is very hard to believe.

Ra was the same as Apohis and other gos'ulds just you got to know them more and understand them better.

Longest running AMERICAN sci-fi series.

And I disagree about Ra being the same about the Goa'uld. But that is just my opinion.

[ldspip]

if it is only the longest running sci-fi in america then what beats it in other places?

i think for the most part we are going to have to agree to disagree on alot of things! lol :P

[Chris9183]

I agree with you.

It's been a few years since I posted my comments on this video, and my feelings on the subject have mellowed; I still see the series to be a weak continuation of the movie, but I don't hate it anymore and I can even enjoy it if I view it as its own entity.

I haven't seen the movie, but TV shows have a way of bonding you with the characters and allowing a degree of emotional investment that's almost impossible to pull off in movies.

I won't deny that the shortcomings you pointed out are pretty serious flaws, but nevertheless, the TV adaptations were one hell of a ride. I'm on season 9 right now myself, and I feel like the show has finally hit its stride. The Ori, now they feel threatening!

Between the Movie and the Series... the Series wins.

And guys about the wormhole discussion it's a freaking tv show not a documentary. There is a reason it's called science fiction. Get over it.
