I think that episodes like 2010, Lost City and Reckoning are far better written with great team action, and not as many plot holes...sigpic

Close but no cigar to my favorite episode, 'The Lost City'.

"Blue Ray" he says - we don't have a machine the plays Blue Ray.
Hmmm, is that his way of saying you can buy it but that doesn't mean we are going to watch it.
"No" he says "we'll get one."
I guess I won't waste the money and get the regular one - I haven't heard any glowing reviews. This way I'll get to see it this century.
Hubby goes to the doctor for his post surgical exam tomorrow - I'll post again tomorrow hopefully with good news.sigpicMy Stories zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz Artwork by Mala

As for the lack of 'glowing reviews' (you just haven't been reading the 'right' threads! ) - I didn't love it but I didn't hate it either. I'd say rent it if you're curious enough. I'm sure that the TV version when it's finally shown will be edited down like they did to 'Threads'.
Hoping for good news for you and your hubby tomorrow!Last edited by Mala50; 06 August 2008, 02:43 PM.sigpic

I just watched the Continuum panel at Comic Con and enjoyed it quite a bit and all the things they talked about the movie. I know that all the stuff like that surrounding the movie has made it more fun for me. And while, I gave my opinion of the movie just being a long ep on a subject that's been done before....there were some good fun things and well done character moments in the film as well....I could ramble on...but I'm thinking that ya'll know what I mean...
And the dogs are antsy to get out and playing...so I better do that...

For anyone who hasn't seen it, it's here:

Originally posted by Mala50 View PostI stopped buying the DVD sets at Season 8. I watched the beginning of Season 9 before I gave up. I saw some of S10 (esp. the episodes with RDA/Jack - I was disappointed though; I liked his S3 SGAtlantis episodes better) and a few others that featured Sam.
The "most evilist bad guys evah" bored me and I could care less about the wrapping up of that storyline in AOT. But I tried to watch AOT out of curiosity though ending up dozing through it. It never crossed my mind to buy it. However, I bought Continuum even though I thought it was only so-so. But then I do have a weakness for RDA/Jack - can you tell?sigpic

Originally posted by Mala50 View PostWell, RL has taken up my time again... I've been busy trying to get things in order before I leave for SF next week, so I may not have a lot of spare time to spend online before I go.
I just wanted to say that I agree with all the posters on this thread so far regarding SG Continuum and the third movie. I have to confess that I watched the film one time a while ago before its official release and although I now have the DVD, I haven't had time to rewatch it or look at the extras. I'll probably do that in the next day or so and will also try to make some caps, time-permitting (I probably won't have time to polish them up, though)...
I know that I promised to refrain from talking about the film here before it was released because I didn't think it was fair to those who were avoiding major spoilers (I think it'll be out/shown in the UK soon?). So whatever 2 cents I post will probably be fairly short and concise (did I hear a sigh of relief? ) - mainly because I really don't have any deep thoughts to share...and I cannot for life of me make myself talk/write ad nauseum about a TV show or film. But if you want that, I'm sure someone will point you in the right direction...
Before I go back and respond to some previous messages, in case you haven't read GW's front page today, new promo stills have been added to the image gallery: Still more Continuum cast and movie photos.
There's one pic in particular of Sam, Daniel and Jack that I scrubbed up and also made some enlargements of the details for a better look.
Spoiler:It's the one of Sam and Daniel bending over the wounded Jack. http://www.gateworld.net/gallery/dis...album=4&pos=95
I don't know why they BW/Martin Wood decided to crop this scene so closely for the film. I think that the promo pics showed the seriousness of the wound much better than what the audience saw. I could be wrong, but I also don't recall seeing Sam touch Jack...

I would have loved to have seen Sam's hand on Jack's body and Jack's hand close to hers...

Hey! Eyes on the hands, girls!!
Look at the expression on Sam's face (AT's eyes say it all)...

I really enjoyed the extras. RDA is in The Making of Stargate: Continuum, a lot more than he was in the movie! It was fun to hear his insights and watch his mannerisms.
