Sam Carter/Amanda Tapping Discussion/Appreciation

[KatG]

Hope you all don't mind but I'm going to go a bit OT for a minute. As some of you know I saw RDA this weekend at the Sea Shepherd charity event in San Diego, CA. I have a few pictures posted here if you would like to see them.

Thanks for posting those.

what i don't understand (amongst the millions of other things) is why there's been no way of seeing 'Stuck'. There's got to be a copy of this film somewhere??? I WANT TO SEE AMANDA AS A FOUL MOUTHED DRUG ADDICT! ... it's my right.

Yes. Yes it is. I will take to the barricades on your behalf! Let's make placards with that slogan. Think how big we could write the words "FOUL MOUTHED"

I think I may be the only person here who thinks the idea of

Spoiler:

Daniel becomiing a prior

could be an interesting storyline. (And just as an aside, I almost felt the need to preface this post with *warning, positive thoughts ahead.* lol)

All other thoughts in spoiler space-for those with stronger wills than I, who want to remain spoiler free and won't click. Sadly, I have the will of brie cheese.

Spoiler:

I know there are a million ways tptb could screw this up. But there are a lot of ways it could be great. Now, I'm not in-tune enough with earlier spoilers to klnow how Daniel gets separated from the team long enough to be turned. But I can imagine the guilt the other team members might feel for 'allowing' that to happen.

Even if it wasn't something as audaciously clear-cut as Mitchell having screwed up, causing Daniel to be left behind somewhere, even if however he gets into a place to be Orified is completely out of the team's control Sam, especially, is likely to feel responsibility. And that could lead to some great scenes for Sam.

If they let this arc play out over several episodes, we could see how the team would handle trying to find a way to get Daniel back, while at the same time dealing with their normal SG1 duties, all while carrying the emotional load of having 'lost' their friend to a horrible fate.

If it plays out over time, the team would almost have to have some interaction with Prior!Daniel-and those could be some awesome scenes. Seeing Sam trying to reason with a Daniel who is lost to Origin? That would be a script AT could sink her teeth into.

And when they get Daniel de-Priored, Daniel dealing with everything he did/went through as a prior could be great. And it could be a way of connecting Daniel and Teal'c.

I'm going to be optomistic about this spoiler.

But seriously. I'm really, really going to STOP reading spoilers.

I am!

I swear.

I think.

LOL I swore off spoilers and lasted a whole 3 days!!
I'm going to optimistically hope for some correlating gutsy Sam scenes but I won't hold my breath!

I agree Deejay. I don't think it's necessarily a bad thing.

Spoiler:

MS does evil very well. I loved his portrayal of going dark-side in Absolute Power. So this could be a really meaty storyline for all the characters, with all sorts of repercussions, especially for Sam and Teal'c. The question is, can the BoB pull it off, given what we've been getting recently. Only time will tell.

[Skydiver]

i do agree. that actor can pull off 'evil' quite well

time will tell if anyone else gets any air time this season.

i would like to think that B@B could pull it off...but miss glass is half empty here isnt' getting her hopes too high.

the greatest weakness of a storyline like this is the ability of the writers to take that extra, unexpected and shocking step. and i dont know if they have it in them to leave the baby pool of 'safe' plot twists.

[scarimor]

Since the WSL thread is pulled again, my second official 1000th post is here! Weeeee - it's like being stuck in a lift that's got a mind of its own - up down, up down!

[there's a real one in our local shopping centre which is like that; I got stuck in it for over 10 minutes once, making unwarranted trips up to the top floor of the multi-storey and down again into the basement... all I wanted was to get out at level two and buy a birthday card.... eeeeek!]

[Lizlove]

Here's a little something for all of you who were a bit perturbed by Wright's comments that SG-1 was a comedy.

Comedy

same wall different message WTF

Heh, I just love their expressions in these pictures.

Hey!!! Those are great

Fic: It doesn't have a title, but it's Sam-angst fic set post-Lost City. http://lasultrix.livejournal.com/174140.html. PG-13 for language and sexual references.

edit: also some nice Sam Art

Thanks! The Sam Art is nicely done

*reading...*
Interesant, I like the way she wrote Sam.

[scarimor]

Hey chaps, perhaps you can help resolve a friendly personal dispute argument conflict of interpretation I'm having over Emancipation...

Spoiler:

The scene in Turgan's tent, right after Sam's foiled attempt escape: Turgan remonstrates with the recaptured Carter... Carter stops him from beating his wife... Turgan grabs Carter, plants one on her, threatens her... /cut

... what's supposed to have happened between then and the next time we see Carter outside?

Ahh good question, and many an episode tag has been written on that very subject

Spoiler:

A lot of fanfic write that Turgan used that ugly whip on Sam, but we will never really know

Spoiler:

In fandom I often read she was sexually abused or beaten on her back with the wip. I think we will never really know although she didn't seem in some kind of pain IMO.

Could have been several things.
Maybe

Spoiler:

-she was forced to watch while he beat his wife (a real deterrent to running away again.
-she was beat herself. Though she was moving pretty easily. Though there's a fanfic that uses that plants numbin/healing properties to cover that aspecy.
-she was raped. Doubtful as there seemed to be no aftershocks. Though Daniel didn't have any either after Hathor. And Sam at this point would never let them know she was a "weak link" as a woman.
The good Mogul seemed to think Turgan would wait til night to sample his new aquisition. Perhaps there is some taboo. Though he may not have counted on Sam pissing Turgan off.

I'm sure I was no help at all.

Suse

[Strix varia]

If only!

Spoiler:

10-to-1, they write it so Daniel saves himself - and everyone else, SG-1, Earth, the MW Galaxy...

I think the odds are much greater that

Spoiler:

Mitchell and/or Vala will save Daniel. Although the chances of him being undercover for the Ancients is an interesting possibility.
