Welcome to the Forum Boards RikTikTavi *waves* ... I hope that you come and join us in discussion of Ben and Mitchell often

Seeing this character grow and emerge from nothing has been so very enjoyable.

Originally posted by RikTikTaviGreetings! I am new to Gateworld.net and this forum. I have been reading posts for about 15 minutes now. I am really enjoying the actual talk about Mitchell's character and not just how hot he is (and make no mistake, he is hot). I can't wait to get a little more information on just what it is that makes this guy tick! I think Ben Browder is at his best when he is acting for highly emotional situations.
Well, that's all for now. Great forum!
Anyway, jump right in and enjoy the conversation! If you have any particular Mitchell topic you want to discuss, we're open to it here. Whether it's something that happened on the show, something you want to happen, or, well, anything!

I think that many posters here still have to become really involved with Cameron character/Ben before joining in... the other characters have all had 8 years of backstory. Many fans of Ben and his work are still staying mainly on the Farscape Boards, where they are discussing his Stargate role & character. This is a pity because I would like to see him gain a real presence on the 'almost official' largest Stargate site. And besides it's fun to talk about this character and read everyone's opinions.
Take the glasses off mini-Daniel. LOL! Good one Chillin.
We do need some icons and avatars of Shaft though!
Does anyone think we'll get to meet some more of Cam's family...or hear about them? He doesn't seem adverse to talking about details of his life (another thing that distinguishes him character-wise)... so any father? Brothers/sisters? Cousins from Uncle Marvin?
I like the way he has such an open personality.Last edited by Kas; 24 August 2005, 08:17 AM.

Speaking of cousins...
So, this is what I've been doing most of today. I think you all might enjoy it. Or, at least, it might kill a few minutes until quitting time while you read it.

It's okay to link to that from here, right?

I've just included the Words concerning Cameron Mitchell and just have to say that I find this whole thing quite alarming!
It seems to me that Mallozzi has been hanging out online a little too much. This is proof that they have been over cautious in their approach... No-one expects the story to be all about Cameron Mitchell but to virtually admit that they've been inclined to shove his character in the background is not good. I had hoped that while respecting fans that they wouldn't let a few dictate the storylines. I wonder how Mallozzi & Co are responding to reading that so many want to see Cameron Mitchell as a character...want him to have time and character development and expect him to have a fair amount of screentime as the new lead?
As to forgetting about having Ben there when breaking the 4th episode and how they don't need to write around the character tends to suggest that they really don't know what to do with the character or how to write him... what a waste of the talent they had available! I'm really hoping that they've got their act together now... Mitchell, with Ben as his player, has fantastic potential to be another military presence and hero, just write him as such - and stop walking on eggshells guys! The show was never just ONE man (good though RDA was) - get over it already. People do respond to well-written characters.
OK... rant over! This interview just annoyed me somewhat... I really want to see Cameron Mitchell expand and Ben really getting some meaty chances in a show he likes!

First, thank you for the warm welcomes from Greytop, Kas, and Chillinthemost. :ractically bursts with the warm, fuzzy feeling:: I can already tell I'm gonna like it here!
Second, I do feel like they have not elaborated on Mitchell's character enough in this season. They have alluded several times to his having regained his mobility after crashing during the Antarctica showdown, but we have no information on how he did it... Was he defeatist at first but then overcame his negative attitude? Was there another person who really inspired him to keep going? Exactly how hurt was he? I mean the list is endless, I wish they would give us some more information.

Oh, I hope so. I used to live in the south (Alabama and Louisiana), and if there's one good aspect to Dixieland its the extremely colorful individuals who inhabit the area. He's got to have at least one crazy uncle who used to swear that he once met a group of E.T.s (who looked suspiciously like the Asgaard, maybe Loki?) while he was out shooting opossums. And who was his biggest influence? Was his family military or not? What's his cover-story for working at the SGA? AAAAAAAAAAAAA... I could keep going...
Well, that's it for now. I gotta run.RikTikTavi AKA The Chemist

I was hoping for some Mitchell whumping in these episodes
And concerning the "Cameron family" question - I think the fact that TPTB have given us this many hits already - that means he'll probably tell more again.

I hope we get further little clues to this part of his story as well...Last edited by Kas; 24 August 2005, 04:50 PM.

[QUOTE=Kas]That pic is definitely there to throw us... I think that it may be Baal. Don't quote me on that though!
Don't know Baal well enough to know for sure but isn't his hair darker?

If it is Mitchell or Daniel, I would have to go for Mitch, as Ben has the longer oval head... Michael's is more round. However, I'll probably be totally wrong!Last edited by Kas; 24 August 2005, 04:48 PM.

He is wearing a white tee and Mitchell usually wears a black tee.
Maybe the white tee is an indication that it's a MITCHELL THUMPING EP
Kinda like black tee was for Chricton, that would be highly amusingLONG LOST TWIN SISTER OF PURPLE
