Re: Stargate episode 200!!!
So... The science fiction channel cancelled Stargate because they wanted to stop showing science fiction shows?
Wha?

Re: Stargate episode 200!!!
Have any of you seen some of the low brow, low quality, absolutly stupid movies they have funded and aired recently? Carnavor Planet... (?) not sure if thats the name, but it was certainly one stupid movie. And they have been airning a lot of stupid movies.
To be honest, I have seen better sci-fi writing come out of this forum than I have seen sci-fi stories come from the Sci-fi Channel.

Does this not make sense?

Re: Stargate episode 200!!!
Makes perfect sense. A channel which has the abbreviation for Science Fiction in it's name is moving away from Science Fiction.
Shouldn't they at least change the name of the channel to Reality Channel, at least? Or the "Real" Channel?

Re: Stargate episode 200!!!
Remember when MTV meant Music Television? Look at the nonesense it is now; for the shallow teenagers. Like mentioned, it can be relabeled "Reality Channel" although there is nothing real about it. People are not real when there are known cameras watching. I hate all that ignorance.
SciFi Channel is sliding towards this.

Re: Stargate episode 200!!!
I blame music in movies for a number of stupid movies.
Why? Becuase when you have music, your actors don't have to work to show which are important scenes, to convey emotion to the viewer, to give a sense of life to the movie.
Just play the appropriate music and instant atmosphere. A lot of older movies are both very good, very nuanced and have no music.
How nuanced are modern movies?

Re: Stargate episode 200!!!
Stargate was good with not relying on music. Stargate kind of counts, since it's in widescreen and has the 'feel' of a movie.

Re: Stargate episode 200!!!
Man I was pissed when I wrote that post. To be honest I am still a bit upset over how f***ing dumb those idiots over at Sci-Fi channel appear to be. You don't drop your #4 rated show and replace it with crappy double "D" back yard, lets break out the video camera, movies!
Hell my nephews could make better movies than some that have recently been on Sci-Fi.
No effort at all is going into the movies, horrible production values, bad acting, rotten scripts, even worse dialog. Its like a Lucas script feast without the budge or SFX, or Steven Spielburg's (sp) to back them up.

Well, with the destruction of the Prometheus and the Korolev, the "fleet" is down to one; the Odyssey

Re: Stargate episode 200!!!
Def not a fan of the ori thing. Apperantly they are still trying to find a home for sg-1. I really doubt atlantis can stand on its own without sg-1 as the sg-1 line is quasi interlocked with atlantis. Plus the costs will now likely rise for the atlantis production as its on its own not sharing the lot with sg-1
