Ask Joe Mallozzi - Spoilers for SG-1 (S8, 9, 10) and SGA (S1, 2, 3)

[Tracy Jane]

Hi Joe,

Just a bit curious today. Just wondered how you worked, because you always say in your blog about how you're watching DVDs and stuff.

That may have come out wrong, so just to clarify: Do you sit down and go, "Right, today I'm gonna script this?" and slog your guts out, or do you just do it when you get inspiration or feel like it?

It's just a nosey kind of question, just wondering how you worked.

Happy New Year and I'll stop by and hassle you some more in your Blog soon.

Hi Joe

Love both shows, and I know this is off topic

But how did you first get into writing? I'm 18 and adore writing, currently working on a novel (non sg-1) but also want to try script writing, I tried Uni but it didnt appeal, so I was just wondering how did you get into it?
+
Do you enjoy your job?

Thanks

Blitz

Hello Mr Mallozzi!

Thanks again for answering our questions. So here comes my question:

Robert Picardo said he would play Woolsey in both SG-1 and Atlantis. Does Woolsey already know Dr. Weir, or they'll be new to each other?

Thank you.

Joe,
Given that SGA has established that the Ancients had regular space-faring craft (unless you call a flying city regular), will we see remains of Ancient spacecraft being found in the Milky Way galaxy?

Joe,

is there any chance of seeing Elizabeth going off world more...???

I just saw "Prototype" (loved it) and was interested in the mention of how is takes 90% brain function for a person to be able to attempt ascention without assistance. In "The Fifth Race" Jack was mentioned to have 90% brain function, so what I'm wondering is whether Jack would have been able to figure out how to ascend on his own (between the higher brain function and the information from the Ancient library in his head) as a last resort if the Asgard hadn't been able to save him (the same could be said for "Lost City")?
If this were to work and was figured out by Daniel/Sam, etc. would it work as a "weapon" against the Ori by having someone "download" the library into their head, figure out how to ascend from it, die in their physical body, and continue the fight while ascended on a more level field with the Ori?
I hope all that makes sense.
Thanks

Hey Joe. Just wondering if we were going to get a glimpse of an Ori army. No priors, or Doci , just fanatic followers on their little jihad against non-believers.

Thank you SO much for the revised Season 9 opening credits. I especially liked the sequence of the wormhole leading into the show title bit. Now, is there any possibilty of having scenes from the episode being aired edited into the credits ala Battlestar Galactica?

[Dani347]

What's the inspiration for the Ori, particularly the words they use to convince people to follow them?

[Kirath]

The Daedulas and Caldwell are becoming a important part of Atlantis are there going to be any future eps that put the ship and its crew front and center? and will we ever see the Daedalus's F-302's in combat?

Joe,
Based on his costume in The Forth Horseman pt. 2, it appears the Hammond has retired, is this true? And if so, what is he doing now? Thanks.

Hi Joe,

Are we going to see Sabrina Gosling in season ten?

Thanks a bunch!

[aaobuttons]

I originally heard that Mitch Pileggi was to have a reacurring role for season 2, is he going to be sticking around for season 3, and if so still in a reacuring role or in a more diminished capacity?

[Elite Anubis Guard]

What made you change the look of the X303 into the BC303?

[Vicky]

Hi Joe!

First, Happy NewYear!! All the best for 2006!

I was wondering if the new gate technician in Atlantis has a name.

Thank you!
