New Wormhole

[Janus]

I'm always partial to greenish blue colors, and I think there was some green in this one.

Of course, when travelling through a stargate, the characters never see it, it's just a visual effect that we have so that we know they are moving...but anyway! I like it.

Actually, in the movie, Daniel saw the wormhole.
He moved halfway into the puddle with his eyes closed and then opened them.
So I think he saw it before he stepped through all the way.

Yes, in the movie... we all know what a great grasp on science D&E have

[Anubis]

Yeah, everything is in the movies now!

Even Furlings?!

In all seriousness, a new effect was made, in all liklihood, to give the show a fresh/modern feeling compared to SG-1.

From the perspective of wormholes looking "different," wasn't there a kind of kaleidoscope/multi-color effect at one point during O'Neill's Milky Way/Ida transit?

The new wormhole looks cool. Has kinda that teal effect as well (Atlantis Color). It is to be expected. New show maybe a bigger budget so they gotta update.

Star Trek: TOS for example had klingons looking like humans in the show but after they started doing movies the studio got a bigger budget and they went for big makeup for klingons on the show. It isn't because the wormhole is different just that they have more money to do stuff I think.

This new wormhole was awesome!

[KayMan2k]

Its was shorter The original movie and SG-1 effect was quite long. Anyway, that old wormhole effect was created 10 YEARS AGO.

I loved the new effect

Maybe the Atlantis gate system was "updated" to improve overall wormhole travel. (shorter, faster, maybe less energy needed, etc...) Thus the new appearance.

Some green? There was pink!

I wonder why TPTB has spent a chunk of the budget on a new wormhole sequence when they already had a prefectly good one? Not that I'm complaining, I just find it curious. Maybe they decided they shouldn't keep recycling footage from the movie forever?

Different Gate, different network = different wormhole.

In reality, the producers wanted the show to look different than SG-1, hense the new Stargate.

[aAnubiSs]

The new wormhole was awsome. Much better then the blue one

[Kraw]

I liked the new one too. It's so diff, yet, so the same

I like the sound effects too

[DownFallAngel]

They did have new sound effects right1!?
