    Well, regardless, I loved his weapon handling! It was great...especially his fighting skills against Ford! I was like damn! Especially since Ford has that Wraith power leverage...they were pretty evenly matched. Any clues on how Ronan managed to stop the Wraith from feeding on him? It seems as though there are genes that make a person immune to Wraith feeding...biological enhancement or was it that he was just a little more evolved?
    Yeah, that was pretty sweet. From what I understood, Ford probably had the physical advantage (despite the fact that JM looks like he's probably got about 30 lbs. on RSF) because of the enzyme, but Dex is so good from having to fend off Wraith for 7 years that his skills made up for it, making them roughly even.

    As to why the Wraith couldn't feed on him, I still don't know. The preview for the next episode made it seem like Shep's gonna spend a good portion of it getting acquainted with Dex, so maybe we'll learn about it then.

      regarding the weapons he used on his homeplanet during the attack...

      when shep and his team encountered the true Genii people they told him that before the wraith cullings the genni were a powerful empire of several planets linked via the stargates, I don't see why his planet could not ave been part of this geni domain, thus explaining the weapon.

      and does anyone else notice that the genni pistols are the pistols used quite often on "the Outer Limits' which is also filmed in vancouver!

          Exactly, and just as I said above!

            Ronon's gun seems to be based on wraith tech, at first glance. He reminds me of the superior warrior race on Andromeda. (sorry, didn't watch that show enough to recall their name, but I remeber that this race originally betrayed Hunt, and he tool one on later on as a friend...in the salvage team...) Anyone? Oh, well.

              Nietzchean. The specific Niechian is TYR ANASAZI. But I think he actually took a shower once in a while. I dont think Dex has had much time with that.

              Note the rifle used by the Genii and Dex was also used in the "Sci Fi orginal movie" Bloodsuckers.....so I guess Vancouver only has one prop department

              ^^^ Kinda sounds like seasons 9 and 10 of SG-1 to me. Thor, ya got Aspirin?

              AGateFan has officially Gone Fishin (with Jack, Sam, Daniel, Teal'c) and is hoping Atlantis does not take that same hairpin turn.

                Well, I'm sure the Wraith leave some planets out of the 100 years feeding routine to insure that they have food for the future. They let worlds develop for a couple hundred years and then they take the civilization developed on the cull. In between they probably just feed on the 100 year cull on designated planet.

                    I think Atteria created a weapon that could take out the Wraith. They sent a team to test out the weapon and that team wiped out the Wraith on another planet. However, the Wraith found out, culled them and found out that they were from Atteria and culled Atteria and left it in ultimate ruin. The Wraith-killing weapon was probably not in production yet.

                    As for Ronan's weapon, seeing as he is a weapons specialist and basically killed the Wraith hunting him, I'm pretty sure his gun is a mix between his world's technology and the Wraith's stunning technology. He probably knew about the Wraith-killing weapon but wasn't in the loop as to how to make it.

                      First, It's nice to know I wasn't the only idiot to watch that crapola movie Bloodsuckers!

                      Second, well, they recycled "stars" (Michael DeLuise and Aaron Pearl) from SG-1.

                      Third, Dex having been on the run for the past 7 years, has most surely "traded" with many cultures and probably acquired his gun from the Genii that way OR they acquired one from him, and used it as their prototype.

                      Fourth, I'm certain Dex will now shower regularly, as he no longer is being tracked by the Wraith and can stay in one place, without constantly having to be ready to "run" on a moments notice. In fact, at the end of the episdoe Runner, it looked like he had already cleaned up a bit. But check him out next week, same Dex time, same Dex channel!

                      Oh, and Fifth, I believe it's spelled Nietzschean, after the German philosopher, critic and poet, originator of the doctrine of the superman. (not the comic )

                          Hmm... maybe there are some Goa'uld or Jaffa floating around the Pegasus galaxy trading intar tech. Or maybe it's another case of parallel development.

                            If you go to Pegasus Galaxy, and watch the preview of Duet, you can see Ronon using what appears to be the weapon's 'kill' setting; it fired a red energy blast - similar to the stun blast - and smashed through a target on the Atlantis firing range. Its probably also worth mentioning that he hit the target smack-bang in the chest area.

                              I think that's how powerful the gun is... powerful enough to stun and kill the Wraith

                                lol, i think your correct. do you guys ever wonder if the producers get in to the shows ins and outs like we do. i mean do you ever think one of the producers or continuity guys is like," uh no no, we cant use that here. that was in ep 3 scene 5 and if we use it, there is going to be an internet conspiracy on how the two are related"


                                IMO... it would be cool if Dex got his weapon from the genii, but i'm chalking it up to the show saving money and hopping we wouldn't notice. nothing gets past us!!

                                oh and i thought the genii don't like to reveal their advanced exsistance to others. so do you really think they would be tradding weapons?
