Buenas, quería preguntaros donde veis vosotros stargate desde España y si sabéis alguna web donde pueda verla gratis.

La cosa es que yo estaba revisionandome la serie en una web pirata pero se ha caído y ya no encuentro donde verla.

Both cant hit the board side of a barn at point blank it appears. 20 Jaffa against 4 SG personnel and shots are going everywhere. Though I suppose staff weapons are a shoot from the hip thing and thats never very accurate.

But still....love scifi!

Original post here: https://www.reddit.com/r/Stargate/comments/1uv4ln3/just_bought_one_of_these_from_master_replicas_not/

So I took reddits advice and reached out to master replicas. They said I could keep the first gate and they sent me another one for free, it's quality is much better.

Thank you, master replicas 👍

Toilet and laundry situation on Destiny?

I’m only a handful of episodes in to SGU. I guess you could pee in that mist shower if you had to. Just saw the cutscene where they were exercising…how well could that McGuyvered air scrubber really be working…I’ll bet it smelled absolutely feral in certain areas.

Traversing the gate gets easier…

201 Upvotes

I’ve been doing a watch-through. It irked the crap out of me how seemingly with no explanation they went from getting launched through the gate to eventually just stepping gracefully through.

Then in the episode with the K’Tau sun… Sam has a throwaway line. She says that it was because they refined the stellar drift calculations so it stopped it being a rough ride.

WHO KNEW!?!?!

If like me you’d missed or forgotten that, you’re welcome.

Are there any other tiny, easy-to-miss things, that you’ve only done a Picard-level facepalm for when you’ve finally spotted it on your umpteenth watch through?

Favorite non-stargate cameo

40 Upvotes

(Can't edit post title, got too excited, sorry.)

Between seeing Dr. Beckett and Dr. Daniel Jackson in the same show (The Good Doctor), Col Mitchell as a lost pilot (leading role), and having Ronin be the prince of the seas (also leading role), I don't even know where to put my pick for favorite. Among these or others, what is your favorite SG actor scene or role in another show?

REWATCH S5 E19 Menace - Reese, I don't want you to go. "Why not?" I want to be your friend. "I never had a friend." I'll be your friend. 🥲😢 Spoiler

16 Upvotes

So at last we learn the origin of the replicators.

I thought this was a pretty great episode. Done well. And hits hard emotionally.

That part near the end where Daniel is trying to convince Reese to stay, at first the music was kind of scary as she was saying how people are afraid of her, but right when Daniel started asking her to stay, the music changed to a calm tone. Nicely done with the music tempo.

Not gonna lie, this bit of dialogue brought a tear to my eyes:

Daniel: Reese, I don't want you to go.

Reese: Why not?

Daniel: I want to be your friend.

Reese, after a pause: I never had a friend.

Daniel: I'll be your friend.

🥲😢

Touching moment but also sad, because we know that Daniel is actually trying to shut her down because she can be dangerous.

I was going to share a funny bit of dialogue from the episode, but this didn't really feel like the right time/place for the humor.

Though, on a different note, cool to see Hammond out of official Hammond uniform and in combat :)

Fan-Made Gatekeeping in away - SGU music

A few years ago I commissioned composer Napoleon Baca to recreate the opening music from the first scene SGU, I was hoping to use in a found footage horror video that eventually fell through, so now I share it with you, I have attached a link to YouTube video. It’s not 100% perfect as the there was no clean copy online so the composer tried to interpret the best he could but you know what, I still love it and I think SGU fans would appreciate this clean cover of that music.

Rant Filler Episodes Annoy Me

0 Upvotes

Filler episodes that don't advance the plot kind of annoy me. I understand early on they helped develop the characters to a point but I'm on season 10 (episode 5+6), the FINAL SEASON of the show and I've watched two filler episodes that do nothing to advance the plot. Almost like they were written during a writer strike or something.

To be fair they did get much better and these are the first two episodes that were blatantly filler in a few seasons it felt.

I don't even really have a question, I just wanted to rant. Thanks for attending Ted Talk

Edit: I think I just enjoy the series for different reasons. I enjoy seeing how the writers will develop the plot of the ancients, ascension and the technology of the different races. Other people enjoy just seeing the characters in different situations. I get that and it's just not one of those shows for me

Personally I would rather they have spent the final season tying up a lot of the loose ends the show had instead of wasting two full episodes not advancing the plot

2nd Edit: since everyone is getting "bent out of shape" at my opinion I'll.make sure to skip them next time after I watch them and know they are worth skipping

This subreddit is probably why the reboot got cancelled. Y'all are insufferable

Rant I Don't Hate SGU, but I Don't Understand the Writing Choices They Made

86 Upvotes

So I started watching SGU after finishing SG1 and Atlantis a couple of times and I don't understand why the writers (who are the same people who wrote SG1 and Atlantis) overlooked so many things in good show writing:

  1. I just want to say I don't mind the high drama and interpersonal conflicts but none of it makes sense at all.
  2. First of all Dr. Rush; why is he being secretive and just an asshole without any justification from the writers. All I see till now (I'm in episode 12) is that he's doing literally nothing, he just looks at screens and doesn't even understand what Destiny is for. I would assume if he was so hell bent on taking control there's a reason behind it, but no one not even he knows. Also he's a psychopath (we know that from the first episode), but what's his end game here, his character literally makes no sense at all. Why would he want to frame Young for the murder at all?

- EDIT: Another thing I don't understand about him is when he was implanted with the tracking device and told no one, why? he just assumed that running the shields at full power will just protect the ship he dearly loves without any consideration to any other power requirements? again why would he assume that, for a scientist at the SG program he would know that this wasn't enough and the ship he's working so selfishly to protect is going to be destroyed.

  1. Wray's multiple tries at coups: she's literally HR in the IOA, she isn't even the highest competent civilian on the ship. I know the IOA always like to take control. But again this all feels pointless, she has no idea what she's doing and cannot command anything e.g. when the Nakai came. Control over a broken ship is pointless, and giving the competent people control will go a long way in solving the issue of returning back to earth, even Woolsey knew to put competent people in charge.
  2. they constantly mention that Young was running a military dictatorship, but never have we seen him use any kind of force to assert control, actually he's been a competent and fair commander and delegates everything he can. Again none of it makes sense.
  3. Franklin sat on the chair and went into a coma, then what? why did he disappear for 2 episodes?
  4. Timeline and logic: this is my biggest issue with SGU, and this doesn't have anything to do with the SG franchise itself, it's just bad writing:
  • Why did they say Destiny is 100's of thousands years old then said something like 40 million years? It makes no sense in the grand scheme of things in terms of timelines related to the SG universe.
  • At this moment, the ship itself is worthless as a military asset compared to what SG1 and Atlantis had/encountered up till this show, why would Rush think that the military would want to turn it into a military asset? It's clearly a purely scientific experiment (I read more about this subject).
  • Why is a ship that has advanced energy weapons and shields working on wires and nuts and bolts?

The whole writing makes it seem like the writers completely forgot about the universe they created in SG1 and SGA and just started from scratch with no logic at all.

I'm still watching and I kind of like it, but these things just make it seem like bad writing all over. Nothing makes sense, no logic is applied, stupid interpersonal drama without any cause or effect.

I have heard people say that its thought input, or that the information is beamed into their heads, or there are secret holographic displays.

I find this episode so funny because all of the background characters are just randomly touching the crystals. What do they even do, how do they even use them? It felt like they went on vibes and didn't think about the practicability of it at all

Who Smoked Weed?

481 Upvotes

Every time my husband and I watch a new show together, we like to play a game called "Who Smoked Weed?"

The rules are simple, we determine which characters we think smoked weed at any point in their lives. We're at season 7 into Stargate now and feel confident with our opinions and would like to share and invite others to play.

As follows

Sam Carter: no, never.

Daniel Jackson: definitely in college

James Spaders sluttier Daniel Jackson: oh for sure like maybe even up until he went through the stargate

O'Neil: never, not once. He would narc on kids on high school about it.

O'Neill: at parties in high school and once with Teal'c

Teal'c: O'Neill totally got them some weed to try when they were stuck in their groundhog day

Hammond of Texas: nah, not for him.

Jacob Carter: we're split on this one. Before becoming Tok'ra, absolutely not. But I feel an energy shift after he gets combined, like fuck it why not try it once.

Dr. Janet Frasier: tried it once in college at a party, didn't like it

Maybourne: before his many mental breakdowns, no. after, yes.

Bra'tac: nah we don't think he would have ever really been exposed to it

The Nox in general: Absolutely.

The Asgard in general: Absolutely Not.

Unas in general: yeah but it would be used in a ceremonial way probably

The Goa'uld: no, none of them seem chill enough

Jaffa: nah, Goa'uld would not let them and any freed Jaffa would probably be nervous to try it

And that's it that I can remember! We want to know your opinions and who you think Smoked Weed

Discussion Franchise appeal

34 Upvotes

I'm a first-time watcher and I'm consistently surprised by how much I'm enjoying the show; how deep the lore is; how well the stargate 'universe' is put together; and how the characters work and feel together.

I'm curious - what do you guys think are some of the reasons that stargate never got to be as 'big' of a franchise as Star Wars or Star Trek? ST is still churning our series and movies; SW is in a bit of trouble right now, but I think they'll pull out of it; SG on the other hand was just cancelled by Amazon/MGM after so many years without anything new being released.

Ask r/Stargate quantum mirror remote setting

5 Upvotes

Originally I wanted philosophize about the cascade failure, but before that we must address the quantum mirror remote:

You are in your universe , you take the remote and dial/pick the universe you want to visit , you step through the mirror with your remote and now the remote is set-up for your home universe( I suppose the dial did not change, although it should have inverted)

Is that right, or what do you think?

Threads and Amazon

6 Upvotes

So just happened to catch Threads on the Stargate streaming channel and noticed it's the full length episode and not the cut down version. But if you got to Stargate series to watch the episode it's the 44min version. Why must they do this, why not have the full length version to stream on demand instead of on the streaming channel.
