Why would I be offended? >>Joe Doran said:No offence, but thats not entirely true. They didnt make a Stargate Atlantis movie for the same reason they didnt make the third SG-1 movie, MGM suffered big time from the economic downturn, and there wasn't funding about to make the films.OhSnap said:Sonic Doctor said:Blame Stargate Universe, they canceled Atlantis because they thought SGU would do better. They F-ed up big time with SGU. The stupid little angsty space soap opera.
And then they put the planned Stargate Atlantis movie on indefinite hiatus because Stargate Universe got cancelled. Good business sense there.
Plus, SG-A was only cancelled prematurely because the creators wanted to end it on a ratings high, rather than have it decline like SG-1 did. My guess is that originally they intended to shift the franchise into more feature length productions, but like i said, the economic downturn messed all that up.
As for SG-U, its just my opinion, but I really liked it. Yes it was obviously meant to "go dark" like the new Battle Star did, but the story was engaging, and by the current point in season two, the characters were really starting to open up and the plot was developing nicely. Lets not forget, SG-1 was pretty damn rough around the edges when that first began. It only got good because it was given a chance to improve.
aaaaand, on a totally separate note, my choice cancelled-before-its-time show: "Life as we know it". A great, quirky, humorous teen drama that I loved when I was younger. Well written, very entertaining.... barely made it past one season. Shame
Earthworm Jim! I loved that show. Now I must go watch it. Need more original shows like that, maybe then I'd actually bother with TV instead of watching everything online.-Dragmire- said:Eek the Cat/Thunder Lizards

That would be nice. I wouldn't mind if they did it right away, it would be fine if they kept the same actors, but retconned it by saying something to the effect that what had previously occurred was one of those alternate realities that SG-1 liked to do. Then we actually get a real show that they make with the proper style, toning down the character story parts of the show. Keep Rush relatively the same and I wouldn't mind if the other characters got changed around a bit with their personalities.Glademaster said:Well who knows there could always be a reboot like V where they can do it again but next time not make the same mistakes.Sonic Doctor said:*Snip*
It would be good but I suppose we will see what happens. Lets hope we at least get the SGA movie relatively soon though.Sonic Doctor said:That would be nice.

It would be good at least.
