Jack: Ah, come on Daniel, why not?
Daniel: Because Jack we already agreed to it.
Teal'c: That is correct O'Neill, we agreed to go to the costume party dressed as characters from the Wizard of Oz.
Jack: I know, I'm not saying we can't do that.
Daniel: But, Jack we agreed Sam would be Dorothy, now you want to be Dorothy?
Jack: Well ya...Tell me what do you think about it Carter?

Originally posted by Mandysg1I don't know, I got a different interpretation from that scene. To me it came off as Jack and Kowalsky giving off the feeling of "Oh great look at the new 'guy' " And the look on Sam's face was more like "you jerk" Not that she'd ever say it.sigpic

Originally posted by ParadoxRealitiesI love Vala as well, and think that she and Sam will play well off each other. I do have a fear that she, along with Mitchell, will take over the show, though.

Originally posted by ColeyWell I think Sam's a fantastic Role Model for young women, inteligent, hardworking, loyal, unnasuming, kind and compassionate - things we should all strive to be. I don't think you can give characters like that enough exposure....

Originally posted by Skydiverstrix likes both the ladiesBut I do like Sunkrux, AD, dancer, Ooooober and the other Vala fans who like Sam also, or are Sam fans who are at least willing to give Vala a chance. And I also like Coley, Sal, Mandy and the other people who have strong anti-Vala opinions. I love this thread, and the people on it.
Unfortunately, I think Vala is the hot-button battlefield topic for a lot of people on the thread (more so than any other topic), and all it takes is one passing shot ("I don't understand how you can't like Vala") and BAM! Coley (cranky, no doubt, from packing) comes out of hiding with guns blazing.It's a sight to behold, a thing of glorious beauty for all who share her opinion, but pretty soon other people are firing back... There are explosions everywhere; the smoke is terrible; people get hurt; AD bemoans the negativity of warfare as he trips off the anti-negativity landmines; Strix starts waving a white flag and telling people to point their guns elsewhere in a whopping display of personal hypocrisy; and Hic Comitas Regit gets blown to bits in the time it takes for the Cupcake of Doom to smash into Paris (sorry, Lys) destroying all life on earth as we know it.
All I'm saying is: Vala=hot button. I don't think there's a single person on this thread who doesn't care about other peoples' feelings, so we just need to keep this in mind and try to avoid inflammatory language when discussing Vala in relation to Sam. Pro or con, when you talk about Vala, you're probably pressing someone's hot button.
And now I'll go crawl under a rock for awhile.Last edited by Strix varia; 24 February 2006, 08:36 AM.

Originally posted by Mandysg1I think it's more about what they've done with the new stuff and how it has affected Sam's character. And I do wonder what is going to happen to Sam when Vala comes on the show.
Me personally I never liked PU, and found the character of Vala too obnoxious (oops that sounds negative doesn't it?) but it makes me think they want to replace Sam with her

Originally posted by ParadoxRealitiesI love Vala as well, and think that she and Sam will play well off each other. I do have a fear that she, along with Mitchell, will take over the show, though. I'd love to see more of Vala, she has a great perspective, I just don't think she's a character set up to be centerstage in Stargate, and sincerely hope she doesn't end up overshadowing Sam.
Since no one's mentioned this yet for COTG, I love the scene between Jack, Sam, and Charlie where Sam says they can set a claymores up along the hill and then Charlie agrees. I just love seeing her get accepted by those 2 as a soldier. And then of course the battle scene for the same reason. It always amazes me when I watch COTG and then something in s6-s8, she's grown so much.
As for COTG, I loved all the scenes mentioned already but one of the other scenes I loved was when the team came through the Stargate from Chulak and Teal'c hands his staff weapon over to Sam. I knew at that moment I wanted to see more of Sam and Teal'c together. Over the past nine years, we've seen this relationship grow and deepen and I only hope they allow us to see more of it in season ten.Last edited by ForeverSg1; 24 February 2006, 08:55 AM.

Originally posted by SkydiverLet's pick an episode from the beginning. Children of the Gods
What's your favorite Sam scene from that episode and why?
and if something was 'wrong' what would you have changed and why?
As for wrong: The reproductive organs thing. Just too cliche. I did like the Matt Mason Astronaut doll thing though in that scene.
Did people watch Tin Man this week? I liked Sam saying about Harlan "He was probably afraid we'd damage him." Loved the expression on her face. And of course the "mole" scene. LOL

Originally posted by jckfan55It's not a knee jerk hatred of anything new for me, it's that the newer characters seem to be being introduced at the *expense* of those we've come to know and love, with Sam particularly seeming to be in the cross hairs. My hope is that Vala is toned down and they see that it doesn't have to be either Sam OR Vala. I've we're going to have Vala, IMHO, let's at least use her for more than what we've seen so far. If Sam and Vala develop an interesting relationship it could be good for Sam. As people have said, they've both been hosts, they're both women in a "man's world"--you'd think that would give them something to talk about. Vala seemed to respect Sam in Beachhead, so that's a plus. I may be in a wishful thinking mood, but I'm hoping that since AT signed on for another year, they give her some opportunities to show her stuff.
I too share your wishful thinking and if that happens I am willing to change my opinion about Vala, maybe even changing the colour of the hot button
