Stargate Atlantis Fan Events/Campaign

[EdenSG]

Weekly Announcement 12/6/2010


IMPORTANT GREENLIGHT CAMPAIGN UPDATES!

This is it - the final big push!

MGM Bankruptcy plan was approved on 12/02 by a NY court. It is estimated it will take 2 weeks to complete the reorganization. It appears that MGM, under Spyglass management, is positioning itself to move ahead on several projects (including James Bond) - they have secured financing for daily operations as well as film & TV productions.

Articles & links on our Movie/MGM News Forum Page

We believe MGM/Spyglass and Syfy may be at a decision crossroads of whether or not the movies will be greenlighted. So while we understand that this is a busy time for everyone; we need to ACT NOW.

The Campaign Has Sent a Living Green Plant to the SPYGLASS execs with the campaign message. We need this to be followed with a lot of messages of support from SGA and SG1 fans.

PLEASE make every effort to participate in the current Greenlight the Movies Campaign events we have listed below by December 12th.



GREENLIGHT the MOVIE CAMPAIGNS:


Send Congrats to Spyglass
WHY? To let Spyglass know that there is a strong fan base that supports the SG1 and SGA movies.

1) Buy or print a generic "Congratulations" card OR you can find five different custom versions (including a black and white version) on our website to print off under the Campaigns page.

2) If you buy or print a blank generic card, please say on it: "Congratulations on your new positions with MGM, from fans who support the Stargate SG1 and Stargate Atlantis movies!"

PLEASE say the above exactly - do not vary from this message. This is a important marketing strategy that we are using and the message must be the same, it must be consistent for maximum impact.

Send to:
Gary Barber and Roger Birnbaum
Co-Chairmen and Chief Executive Officers
Spyglass Entertainment
10900 Wilshire Blvd.
Los Angeles, CA. 90024

* Be sure to sign your name!




Send a Message to Syfy

Greenlight the Movies Campaign Update

During the last four weeks the movies campaign has asked fans to to mail messages of support for the SG1 and SGA movies to Spyglass, MGM and Syfy. A big THANKS to all who participated! We have had a lot of positive feedback and pledges of support.

If you did not have a chance to mail your card of support then PLEASE DO SO ASAP! Last week we sent a GREEN plant with the campaign message to the Spyglass execs. It would look really great for SG1 and SGA to have this followed with a big show of fan support. So please get those cards and letters sent out!

Checkout the website CAMPAIGN PAGE for details on what to send and addresses.


It's About the Giving

During this special time of the year, when we are so caught up with the hecticness of the Holidays, we wanted to take a moment to highlight the many charitble causes supported by the actresses and actors of Stargate.

Weekly Announcement
12/20/2010

We want to wish everyone a safe and joyful holiday season. With so much turmoil and uncertainty these days may we all take time to enjoy the simple things and revel in the every day pleasures that family, friends and the season can offer.

This will be our last update until after the New Year. However that doesn't mean our support for SG1, SGA and the movies will be taking a break.
So What is Happening?
1. Fan fic contest entry deadline on Dec. 30th
2. Cell Phone for Soldiers Drive
3. Support SG1 and SGA: Twitter, Hulu, Syfy Rewind
4. SG1 and SGA Product of the Week suggestions
5. New SG1 and SGA contests TBA in 2011


News this Week
As everyone likely knows, SGU was cancelled this week by Syfy. Regardless of one's own personal opinion of the show, we want to express our sympathy to SGU fans. Losing a show that one loves' is never easy - especially with so many stories left untold and dreams unrealized.


What is the fate of the SG1 and SGA movies?
At this point no one knows.
What we do know is that Stargate has been a successful franchise for 15 years and MGM continues to make money from SG1 and SGA. We know that Hollywood loves franchises. We know that MGM has stood behind SG for 15 years, so much so it was even mentioned in the bankruptcy papers how successful the franchise has been.

The future of the SG franchise is in MGM/Spyglass hands. Our belief is if SG is still profitable for them, they will find a way to continue it. The movies could be a very viable option for them.

The 2011-2012 TV season will be the first with no new Stargate in 14 years. It is critical that we show MGM/Spyglass that fans support SG1 and SGA. We really need to up the fight for the greenlight! Show your support on Twitter #fightforthegreenlight and be sure to send out your cards and Tweets telling MGM/Spyglass that we want more Stargate!



Ways to support Stargate SG1 and SGA over the Holidays:

For the last few weeks we ran a "Greenlight the Movies" mail campaign directed at Spyglass. If you did not have a chance to participate, then PLEASE do so NOW. It is not too late. Click HERE for how.

Twitter, Twitter and Twitter some more. The message is:
" I support #SG1 & #SGA. Please Greenlight the #Stargate movies."
Use #fightforthegreenlight" in ALL your tweets.

Free - Watch an episode of SG1, SGA on HULU and/or Syfy rewind

Buy - a Stargate gift for your friend, a family member or best of all yourself! See our PRODUCT OF THE WEEK for links to the MGM store and Amazon for great gift ideas.

Save Stargate Games Campaign:
Major Davis from the Stargate Movies Campaign recently did a podcast with Zainea13 from www.savestargate.org a campaign dedicated to saving "Stargate: Resistance" and "Stargate Worlds" games. Their goal is to also show MGM that there is a market for Stargate video games in the event that they are not able to save Resistance or Worlds.

In the podcast, the discussion centered on the two campaigns, support between the campaigns, the state of the franchise, how "Stargate: Universe's" cancellation may affect the campaign, and much more.
Listen to the PODCAST

For more information on the Save the Stargate Games you check them out on TWITTER or on FACEBOOK, and/or sign the PETITION to help keep the games alive.

Weekly Announcement for 01.04.2011



First and foremost, we hope all our fellow Stargate fans had a safe and healthy holiday season and we wish you all the best in this new year.


MOVIE NEWS
As we know, the end of 2010 brought some tough times for Stargate with the cancellation of SGU and writer/producer Joe Mallozzi saying in his daily blog that the SGA Movie has been put on indefinite hold. The campaign's goals have always been to support SG1 and SGA as well as rally support for the movies. We have no plans to cease and desist just yet and we ask that you not throw in the towel either.

There is still so much we don't know about the status of the movies, the state of the franchise and MGM future plans. We have the statement from JM that the movie is on hold, however where does that information come from? JM's interpretation? From MGM? From Brad Wright?

On Dec 23rd, JM stated in his blog: "Which brings me to a conversation I had with Stargate Creator/Showrunner/Executive Producer/Writer Brad Wright today. Alas, no details to offer (yet!) but suffice it to say he’s battling hard to ensure the franchise (that’s SG-1, Atlantis, and SGU) lives on and that the season two finale of Universe, “Gauntlet”, will not be the end. He’s adopted a clever two-pronged approach that, if successful, will see our awesome crew back at work next year. Nothing is guaranteed, but it’s great to hear he’s got a plan to make it happen... "
Then on Dec 26th JM stated, " I’m sorry to say but the cancellation puts the brakes on whatever progress the SGA movie had made in the past month, shelving it indefinitely."

The information provided over a 2-3 day period, is somewhat contradictory. What one can conclude is that there is still a lot going on that we (and probably JoeM) doesn't know about and that Brad Wright and MGM are actively discussing the future of SG. Until something is officially announced, it would seem the status of the movies is the same as they were one year ago; shelved but not officially cancelled.


Therefore the Movie Campaign's New Years Resolutions are to:

1. Continue supporting SG1 and SGA.
2. Continue to rally for the greenlight for the SG1 and SGA movies until more definitive word or info comes from MGM that the movies will not happen.
3. Continue to enjoy and celebrate all the good things that we and fans love about SG1 and SGA


BEST WAY TO SUPPORT SG1 and SGA NOW?

Buy SG1 and SGA merchandise - DVD's, books, audiobooks, posters, calendars, action figures, comic books etc..... check out our PRODUCT of the WEEK for all the suggestions, with links, on the website.

We know we sound like a broken record and we know most of you have already bought your fair share of SG stuff but really this is the best thing to do as it shows MGM that SG1 and SGA are still profitable.



FOR THE LOVE OF STARGATE

PLEASE SUPPORT CELL PHONES for SOLDIERS

Making a donation to Cell Phones for Soldiers is a way to show Stargate fans at their best.

Did you, or a family member, co-worker, or friend get a new cell phone over the holidays? If you did please consider donating the old, unused one to Cell Phones for Soldiers.

This very worthy cause takes money earned from the donation of old cell phones to buy and send phone cards to military personnel serving overseas so they can call home. Help give our troops the best holiday gift ever this season, a chance to hear the voices of their loved ones. Donate today and help military families cope with deployment.

The donation will cost you little to no money as there is a FREE pre paid shipping label available to print off from the website.

Please visit the DRIVES PAGE
on the campaign website or CELL PHONES for SOLDIERS site.

If you are unable to donate an old cell phone, and if you want and are able to, please conside a cash donation. For more information please click on the BADGE on the home page of the website that will allow you to make a cash donation.

MOVIE/MGM NEWS
http://z7.invisionfree.com/SG_Movies_Campa...hp?showforum=13

The only new mention about SGA, SG1 and the franchise came from Joe Mallozzi's blog on Jan 4th in which he posted, "After lunch, I spoke to Brad about the future of the franchise. We discussed “the plan”, Universe mainly, but also talked SG-1 and Atlantis. No word on progress yet but, given the recent holidays, that’s to be expected I suppose. Hopefully, we’ll receive some positive news next week."


CAMPAIGN
The final fate of the movies, and likely the franchise at this point is with MGM. As we stated in December, we believe this is a very pivotal time for the future of the movies as well as the SG franchise in general. Time may be running out for fans to express their support. We need to work together, and we need to do it now.


TELL MGM that FANS SUPPORT the STARGATE MOVIES!!!

CALL to ACTION!
By Friday, 1/14/2011 Please:

Fans support the #Stargate #SG1 and #Stargate Atlantis #SGA movies-Please greenlight the movies #fightforthegreenlight

*Please tweet/retweet the above message with #fightforthegreenlight in the message by this Friday 5:00 pm EST - and we will pick one person to win the new Stargate Atlantis 2011 Calendar


2. SEND a LETTER to MGM
Tweets are good - but the BEST way to express support is with a letter:

Please send MGM/Spyglass a letter expressing support for the Stargate Franchise and the SG1 and Stargate Atlantis movies.

*Note: we know not all fans are franchise fans, however MGM considers Stargate a franchise and will be looking at it from that business perspective. SG1 and SGA are part of the franchise - that is how MGM views it - therefore we need to let MGM know that greenlighting the SGA and SG1 movies is good for the franchise

Dear Mr.

I have been a longtime fan of the MGM Stargate television series.

I want to take this opportunity to express my support of Stargate and the Stargate SG-1 and Atlantis movies that are currently on hold. Please consider greenlighting these movies as myself and fans around the world are still anxiously anticipating their release and have the desire to purchase the movies. Having the Stargate movies go into production would certainly revitalize and strengthen the franchise.

Thank you for your consideration.

Sincerely,
(Sign your name and address)

MGM/Movie News

http://z7.invisionfree.com/SG_Movies...p?showforum=13

The only information continues to come from Joe Mallozzi's blog. Basically nothing has changed; the focus remains on finding a way to continue SGU and there has been "no movement" on the SGA movie. Also, when asked about the SG1 movie, he made no comment.

We understand things seem rather discouraging at the moment, but the truth is no one knows, and this likely includes TPTB and MGM, what will happen to SGA, SG1 or even the franchise at this point. Will there be movies or do TPTB have another plan in mind or is there no hope at all? NO one knows for sure. Until we have definitive word the campaign will continue to rally support for SGA and SG1. We should continue to let MGM know fans support SGA and SG1, that we want the greenlight for the movies and most importantly, enjoy being SG1 and SGA fans.

Weekly Announcement 1.24.2011


Will there be Stargate Movies?
No one can answer that question with 100% certainty at this time.
What we do know is that MGM and Brad Wright are actively engaged at looking at the franchise and deciding its fate.
Will there be more SGU? Will there be SGA and SG1 movies? Or are they considering a combination of SG1/SGA movie, miniseries or something else?

So what do we do?
Since the fate of the franchise, and thus the possibilty of seeing SGA and SG1 continue in some way, is still undecided, this is not the time to give up! Now, more than ever, we should let MGM know that as they make their decisions about the fate of the Stargate franchise, that fans still want and support SGA and SG1 being a vital part of the franchise.



TELL MGM that FANS SUPPORT STARGATE SG1 and SGA!!!

Dear Mr.

I have been a longtime fan of the MGM Stargate television series.

I want to take this opportunity to express my support of Stargate and the Stargate SG-1 and Atlantis movies that are currently on hold. Please consider greenlighting these movies as myself and fans around the world are still anxiously anticipating their release and have the desire to purchase the movies. Continuing the story of Stargate SG1 and Atlantis in movies or some other format would certainly revitalize and strengthen the franchise.

(Sample Letter):

Dear Mr.

I have been a longtime fan of the MGM Stargate television series.

I want to take this opportunity to express my support of Stargate and the Stargate SG-1 and Atlantis movies that are currently on hold. Please consider greenlighting these movies as myself and fans around the world are still anxiously anticipating their release and have the desire to purchase the movies. Continuing the story of Stargate SG1 and Atlantis in movies or some other format would certainly revitalize and strengthen the franchise.

Thank you for your consideration.

Sincerely,
(Sign your name and address)

Weekly Announcement 2.15.2011


FROM JOE MALLOZZI'S BLOG
Recent updates include this comment, "if and when we finally do get the green light, Brad has some wonderful surprises in store for fans of SGU (as well as fans of the Stargate franchise in general)."

A few days later a blog entry had this Q&A: "Does that fact that you referred to that script (Extinction) as “that script” mean it will never see the green light..?” Answer: "Not necessarily but, like I already said, the cancellation of SGU has stymied whatever progress the SGA script had made..."

More updates/links can be found on the Campaign FORUM:

While these blog entries may indicate the movies are unlikely to happen, the fact that MGM has not closed the book yet on the Stargate franchise is good news, and means there are still opportunitiues for SG1 and SGA.
We firmly believe that if there is a future for the Stargate Franchise it will need to include the SG1 and SGA movies. MGM may be considering the movies, or another production idea for continuing SGA/SG1 or no SGA/SG1 at all.

We should not give MGM a pass on these movies that fans were assured would be made!
Let's continue to fight for SGA and SG1 - let's make sure that MGM knows that fans have not forgotten about the movies and that the future of Stargate Franchise must include SG1 and SGA!!!

A personal note from MarieWynn:

As some of you might have noticed, I have been missing from the campaign for a little while and thus been unable to update the website or keep up with Twitter and LiveJournal all that well. Unfortunately, a member of my family that is very near to my heart passed away and as such I have been taking the time to grieve and be with my family. I tell you this only so you know that my dedication to the campaign has not wavered in the slightest.

As life goes on after loss, so does my commitment to the campaign and to get these movies greenlit. I would like to personally thank each of you for your patience while I have been away. And I would also like to express my appreciation for my nomination to the Shorty Awards on Twitter for savestargate. The nomination came at a very hard time and it was very uplifting to know my Stargate family was thinking of me. Thank you again and be sure to check out the updates on the website, which will be fully updated by tomorrow!

Weekly Announcement 3.8.2011


Have you gotten mad yet?

from Joe Mallozzi's blog:
"Hopefully, by the time its airs (final ep of SGU), we’ll have definite word on a potential movie or two. If it’s a go and fans can look forward to a proper end to Destiny’s mission, then Gauntlet will certainly set the stage for a grand conclusion."

So the questions are:
What about the Stargate SG1 and Atlantis movies that fans were assured would be made?
What about the SG1 &SGA fans whose support helped make those shows so very successful?
What about the proper end that SGA deserves?

We cannot let MGM & company ignore the SG1/SGA movies and fans. We cannot give MGM an easy pass on these movies. Tell MGM & company how much fans support SGA and SG1, that we will not forget the promised movies and the franchise needs more SGA & SG1!


Please join us :


Stargate March Madness

1. Tweet MGM a few times a week to politely ask for the movies and/or express support for SGA and SG1. Be sure to include #fightforthe greenlight in the tweet.

NEW: additional names added!
