I don't know why Brad Wright thought MGM would bother with an SGU movie when the series couldn't bring in enough viewers to stay on the air.

I'm willing to bet that mabe many years from now Stargate will come back, but if not then some other Science Fiction show will replace it.1 “Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in Me. 2 In My Father’s house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. 3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also. 4 And where I go you know, and the way you know.”
5 Thomas said to Him, “Lord, we do not know where You are going, and how can we know the way?”
6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.
John 14:1-6Comment

Space-based science-fiction has already been replaced by down-to-Earth science-fiction shows such as FOX's Fringe. People don't care about space anymore.Comment

I wouldn't exactly say that but yeah, all of the sci-fi chows are down-to-earth and we may have Lost to thank for that.Originally posted by Snowman37 View PostBack from the grave.Comment

I don't think Lost had anything to do with it. Space-based science-fiction has been on the decline since the 90's.Comment

I totally agree with this. I think a lot of people are much more interested in fantasy that is based a little closer to home. People are obsessed with conspiracies and supernatural things based here on earth as oppose to out in space where there is no chance of us know if maybe its at all trueOriginally posted by Snowman37 View Post

Lost was awesome. Anyway, I'm a fan of SGU, but I still doubt a movie would come from that source. I believe that the Atlantis movie would be most likely, we have more sneak peeks on that one.

Space based Science Fiction means CGI, CGI is expensive. They require much higher ratings to be a viable profit to TPTW. If they don't get it, they pull it.Posting at.............

CGI-based visual effects is just one of many expensive endeavors to put together a spaced-based science-fiction show. Quite simply, the audience nor the economy can support such a TV series at this time.Comment

It's not a matter of the economy being insufficient to support such a show. A show that captures wide audience appeal simply isn't out there, and until such time as a show like that arrives, quality space based sci fi will continue its decline.Originally posted by Snowman37 View PostComment

In the same country I suspect you're in. The money is there for such a show. That show simply isn't around to invest the capital into. I've debated the health of the economy many times, and while certain sectors are greatly depressed, many others are in better states now than before the overall market correction.Comment

I think there is always execptions to the rule. Look at ST 09. We have just not had many for a long time. The industry was burnt hard a couple of times and is taking a long rest from the genre for now.Posting at.............

Exactly. A series is an investment, and much like the stock market, confidence is required before the cash is laid down.Originally posted by Graybrew1 View PostComment
