Ghost Train Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 I think SyFy's will only have pro-wrestling as its series lineup. The rest will be composed of their award winning feature films like: Crocasauras vs. Mega Killer Whale vs. Giant Chihuahua vs. Lindsey Lohan.

Greyryder Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 Crocasauras vs. Mega Killer Whale vs. Giant Chihuahua vs. Lindsey Lohan. I would totally watch that. I'm just wondering how long until they decide to make Sharktopus Vs. Dinocroc. It's really only a matter of time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sketchley Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 S02.E11 Definitely a good payoff to the buildup of the last episode/half a season. How come the back half of this series's seasons start better than the first half? There are some great plot twists, that, despite having re-watched the preceding episode less than a week ago, I wasn't expecting. Recommended.

Arthurius Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 what can i say, it feels like a curse.... I loved this stargate more than any other show, and thoughed it was the best thing on tv. Now i had to find new shows to watch, but definetly NOT on SiF, and now watching V, Mad Love, The Big Bang Theory, the Avengers and Transformers, but other than V, there is simply no science fiction series i was able to find.

Since when do aliens start caring about modesty? E.T., Close Encounters, xenomorphs, girl from that timeless classic "LifeForce".

Actually there's plenty, we're just hiding it from you because of said CURSE. The rest of us still get the classic SciFi channel,(not that decoy channel Syfy), where there are new episodes of BSG and Firefly still being aired. Sorry dude.

As I told you on this thread http://www.scifi.com/secret/no-arthurius/forums/BSG2011/topic=90290 They're not huts! They're soft micro-bungalows. And when you speed zoom from the District 9esque New New New New New New New New Caprica cityscape to inside one of the tiny windows, it signifies the inner conflict that can get lost within the bigger picture.

sketchley Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 Moving back to SGU talk, please and thank you. Looking forward to the upcoming episode with some of the cast from SGA. Any thoughts on the following two articles about the fate of SGU?: http://www.gateworld.net/news/2011/03/sgu-writers-hoping-for-movies/ http://www.gateworld.net/news/2011/03/robert-carlyle-cast-in-abc-fantasy-pilot/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arthurius Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 with all the sg1 and sgu fans whining about movies for their series, it just keeps looking worst and worst for SGU. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoryHolmes Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 Which is a pity, since I consider SGU to be miles ahead of SGA. Atlantis started off strong but soon fell in love with the Big Red Reset Button and the devolved into a farsical slapstick comedy. SGU had me right from the cold opening of the first episode, and as soon as the sex scene aired in that first episode I knew we were in for a different ride than what had come before. Sadly, it falls on the sword of Syfy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sketchley Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 If there's going to be Stargate movie in the near future, an SGU movie is the most likely. It's the only one that has the sets already built, and the production staff still relatively tied into the series (of course, as time passes, more and more of the creative staff (both in front and behind the camera) are drifting away). I agree about SGA and the silly red reset button. Sure, it didn't do well in the North American market, but from what I've read, it did really, really well in Europe, possibly elsewhere. In the end, though SGA wasn't bad, it wasn't great, either. And all the cast changes ended up hurting more than helping, IMHO. I sincerely hope that we do get a conclusion to the SGU story - be that a webisode, direct to DVD movie or whatever. Even a rushed ending like what was done with SGA would be better than ending on a cliffhanger (which is what everything I've read is pointing at.)

Twoducks Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 I'm curious about all the Stargate shows. When they first aired ST my brother and me really enjoyed it. Think I saw two seasons. Years latter I saw some loose episodes but I think that the lineup had changed of something. A few months ago I saw the first episode of Atlantis but it was full of new people. So, is the first generation the way to go? Can I see this new SGU now and follow it whithout much trouble? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sketchley Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 I think that most people will agree that SG1 (the first series) is the best one. However, keep in mind that it's 10 seasons. Knowledge about SG1 will help, but it isn't necessary to watch SGU. That's probably one of the better features of SGU - one doesn't need prior knowledge of either SG1 or SGA to get into it.

sketchley Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 S02E12 Grrrrrreat. Bizarre, truly "out there", but also fun, and lots of stuff to smile and laugh at. I'd say this one catches the mood of both SG1/SGA and SGU quite well. There's lots of stuff going on in this episode, and pretty much everyone (main & minor characters) are given something to do.

miles316 Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 (edited) I understand Telford getting sent 12 hours into the future I wonder if the crew got sent in to the far future like SG-1. How did future Rush and Future Destiny get sent hours into the past they never explained that it just seems like a massive plot hole. I could have accepted Rush using the gate to go back in time to warn them, but how did the ship itself I know it was necessary to get Destiny the parts it needed.

sketchley Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 They did explain it. Something about the wormhole going through a solar flare while the 9th chevron was activated while the ship was in the middle of a star caused the entire ship to go back to the past. Telford was sent 12 hours into the past... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sketchley Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 That part did come fast, and wasn't dwelt on for very long. For a long time I thought that the future Rush and Destiny would disappear because the events leading up to their appearance had changed. However, some time after the end of the episode, I realized that the 1st season episode that dealt with time travel had set a precedent and there's no chance of any of these future versions from disappearing. Of course, now we get a dead present Telford and next week, a living future Telford. And did the future Rush get absorbed by the Destiny? If so, did the future Destiny transmit him to the past Destiny, and will he play a role in future episodes? Does any of this matter as it looks like the series won't be continuing after the 40th episode??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miles316 Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 (edited) What is the point of having a weapon of mass destruction if you have to park it on the roof of your target. They could have had the thing on the other side of the Potomac, or in the parking lot I'm assuming "Home World Command" is in the Pentagon. Why would they waste Naquadria when regular Naquida would be just as effective. That is point blank range parking your delivery vehicle on you target.

Why would they waste Naquadria when regular Naquida would be just as effective. That is point blank range parking your delivery vehicle on you target. 'cuz otherwise there would be no episode. Within the story, one could guess that it's bravado on the part of the Lucian Alliance (we sneaked past the defences, landed a ship on their command centre, walked away, then blew it up real good). Or maybe they just don't have missiles/bombs and can't risk using the rings to transport it, as their target could just as easily ring it back to them. I'm going to give this episode a "good" rating. It didn't really advance the overall story in the end. And that's despite resolving one of the story arcs over the preceding 12 episodes; and I'm a bit underwhelmed by that resolution - too little, too late? Anyhow, I'm wondering how many more episodes Lou Diamond Philips will appear in before his character disappears again until the season (series?) final. ... and if they'll ever properly address the time travel hi-jinks (like, dude, your a dude who's from the future that travelled back in the past. You're like 18 hours ahead of everyone else!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miles316 Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 I just wish they hadn't killed Kowalski in the second episode of SG-1 that would have been cool having a actor from the movie reprise his role in the series I miss Daniels Father in law and Skara.

Knight26 Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 Quick question, in the scene where Rush is looking for his ten volunteers to stay behind, it sounds like he said they were only a year away from the signal, is that correct or did I hear it wrong?

sketchley Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 I don't particularly remember that line. Maybe it was something along the lines of "we could be as close as 1 year away from discovering the meaning". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sketchley Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 S02E14 Just finished watching it. This one is an excellent episode - one where everyone has something important to do, and there is a lot of character. AND a couple of truly unexpected twists (no, I didn't watch any of the previews). It's definitely a grade above last week's episode. Funny thing is, they resolve last week's plot leftovers, and it barely registers. Nevertheless, the rest of it is good solid stuff with a lot of exploration of the ship - something that's kinda been neglected over the past half a season or thereabouts.

EXO Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 Episode was really good. Pity the series finds itself at the end of it's run. Or pity that Syfy cancels shows before they get their speed up. Awkward having Rush, Lt. Scott and Eli all looking at Chloe like "Yum!" I thought they were about to pull the devil's foursome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
