MGM Open To More Stargate Depending on Success of Stargate Origins and SGC

[Falcon Horus]

Look what the French Stargate fanpage -- Stargate-Fusion -- found on the world wide web:

The Narrative -- Research and Production Assistent for the Stargate franchise

RESEARCH AND PRODUCTION ASSISTANT (STARGATE FRANCHISE)
If you love Stargate, Doctor Who, Firefly and anything to do with space and time, this is the role for you! You’ll be a dedicated Research and Production Assistant on our Stargate team: brainstorming ideas, creating content, managing super passionate contributors and bringing massively good vibes to the office. Prior experience in tech, consulting, media or editorial is preferred.

Basically someone like Jenny Stiven -- if you look her up on LinkedIn, you'll know what I mean.

As if they're going to hire someone who is dedicated to Stargate...

They are looking for someone with these skillsets --> prior experience in tech, consulting, media or editorial is preferred.

They're not looking for someone who knows something about stargate. That's just a bonus.

[Platschu]

So what is the job offer? Why are they looking for an assistant? Will they be part of a brainstorming team for a new SG show or any SG related merchandise products? Is it not just a joke?

[NickEast]

That's not what the description says. Obviously they need certain skills for the job, but the text you quoted includes "if you love Stargate" and "brainstorming ideas, ..." If such a job means working on Stargate, then IMO being dedicated to the franchise is a must in order to get good ideas. If they hire someone who only cares about the job, that's when you get these problems that we're having right now. And that is why I said they're not going to hire someone who cares about Stargate; they're going to hire someone who can do the job and nothing more.

The Narrative is a company based in London (UK). This position is also for their London office.

This is what their introductory line says on their homepage...

The Narrative has leveled up, we're taking our bespoke process of fresh filmmaking style and fandom building experience to the world's most beloved franchises that will change the entertainment industry...

Know what that sounds like -- Stargate Command.

Because here's what they say on their "About" page:

The TTP is the foundation of our projects.

MGM has a London office overseeing the European market... Could it be they are actually thinking about expanding after all? Are we really gonna be that lucky?

Because I have one message for them: TOO FREAKIN' LATE!

[Platschu]

So they are looking for a SuperOfficeFan or OfficeSuperFan. it is so confusing. If it would be really Stargate related job, then they wouldn't have mentioned Doctor Who or Firefly. So I am guessing it must be some general secretary job in the scifi industry.

[Falcon Horus]

It's a paying job so not a superfan thing. They need someone with experience first, love for scifi second.

Random thought:

Am i the only one who feels the title of this thread is becoming more and more ironic?

[NickEast]

No. No you are not.

[Falcon Horus]

I think the title should definitely change... it's rather ridiculous to keep it (now).

The Star Gate is like a huge transporter, so who or what is doing the transporting and for what reason? That's the first question.

Then I guess we could say with 99.99 percent certainty that MGM has lost the database to with all the destinations. Hence why it's been offline for so long.
