Hello, folks.
I'm hoping for a little bit of help. I've finally gotten the time to start watching my Stargate DVDs and have been getting into the commentaries. So can someone point me to good commentaries that actually have, you know, the actors in them - whether it be AT or any of the others. Almost every episode I've picked so far has been the directors, writers, editors, camera people, special effects supervisor etc etc. And while it's interesting, they can tend towards the boring.
I've already watched Death Knell, Line in the Sand, and... I think there was one other that had actors. Oh, Grace I think... and maybe another. Doesn't matter what season or anything, I'm not going in order.
Thank ye kindly.

burgers from room service may or may not be 'healthy', however, they are relatively 'safe' food to order
I don't know about you guys, but everytime i ate at the 3 magpies i'd get a 'wonky tummy'... i think it's the water. after AT2 i had a tummy upset that lasted for weeks after i cae home. this last time i worked to avoid tap water as much as i could and stuck to bottled as much as possible and i had a lot less issues.
I also think that it's the fat in foods that i have issues with. I don't consciously eat a low fat diet, i just kinda avoid it...and then eat at a place where they don't worry as much about the fat and my tummy reacts a bit

JM & RP said they wanted to show out how inept Woosley was at dealing with people and they thought that was a great way to show it . *heavy sigh* I just wonder if they even thought about what that did to a beloved character after 11 years. You're right Hammond got a much better send off in Lost City! I was expecting something like that.Spoiler:the reaction wasn't all that different.
I actually can forgive how they got her off the series. I'm not happy, but I can forgive it. Though I rather expect - instead of using the issue for drama - Woolsey will be mostly accepted by the third ep.
What I'm having a harder time with is this is the third time she's been "Shaft"ed out of a command even though she's competent. (Unlike others I could mention.) It's offensive. And TPTB seem to think it's okay to do it to her. I shudder to think why. <<Wonders what would happen if the writers/producers/showrunners of the show had all those titles taken away and were just...writers. Would never happen. >>

Happy Birthday FrostFox!
I hope you have a great day!
As far as Commentaries done by actors.
You might try the ones that Chris Judge has written I think he did commentaries for at least one of them... AT did the commentary for Resurrection the one she directed so she talks about the camera shots and things like that, so that may not be one you want if you don't like the technical stuff (me I love it. Very interesting stuff )... she also did commentary for the Road Not Taken and Covenant I believe. She has done quite a few. CJ had done a few. Not sure about the others. I don't have my DVD's in front of me.Last edited by ann_sgcfan; 17 July 2008, 07:50 PM.

I actually really like him and a lot of fans knew Amanda was moving on to star and be one of the EP of her own show... That's a great achievement! I think that's why JM and PM didn't really put any thought into her leaving, they think well the fans know it's coming so lets juice it up a little.
Spoiler:What I mean by Sam redeeming herself. She had a pretty bad experience in the Gate Room. You have the soldiers in the gate room and the technicians standing in the Control Room listening to her being relieved of command. These are people that she worked with or they worked for her when she was at the SGC. Her service record now shows she was relieved as Commander of a base. Where does she go from this point? How does she redeem herself? Does she tell the IOA board off? Does she uncover the IOA is corrupt? Does she get Landry's job? Does she go back to Area 51? What's next for Sam. Does she captain a ship? I think going back to SG-1 would be a demotion IMO.Spoiler:you're right, she now has something like that on record, and what's worse is that she has it for the wrong reasons. I still can't believe she was disrespected like that, and have you seen the SGA homepage on the Sci-fi page? Woolsey is now in Sam's place, it hurts even to look at that . I mean, Sam's first day, she got straight to work, laid down the rules to Ronon, and -- I just don't see what she did wrong. But as to your question about what happens to Sam, as much as I would like to see her tell the IOA off, she's too good for that, but like I said Continuum takes place before the season is over, so whether we hear something then, or in this season, it'll still be good. But I just want to know what she'll do about her hair when she comes back? I wouldn't like to see her go back to Area 51, Landry's job maybe, and while going back to SG-1 would seem like a demo, I really wouldn't mind going back if I were her. I mean she's back with her team/family/friends doing what she does best, saving the day and exploring the galaxy, I could think of worse things.

First Sam cameto was an insult to Sam and Amanda IMHO. In Letters from Pegasus one phrase: if I blinked my eyes I didn't even notice it. But they latter more than corrected that fault.
I hope Sam can come back. I'm always a flexible Amanda fan lol I mean all I ask that in Atlantis Sam can be seen in 3-4 episodes a season, but if by Amanda avaiblability that ain't possible, sure NP. But "humiliating" her that way.... is that the way ya thank an Actress who played Sam for 11 years and always listend to "the house"? If she did had to "leave" command I'd rather had Landry telling her, or Jack or someone else she knows.
Originally posted by Daivy View PostBTW Rocky, you had 2 more dreams about her? I think your cheating me with "Dream Amanda" lol. Just Kidding. As long as we can tell 'em further eh.
Oh yeah one more thing: I went to the doctor and he said I'm suffering from a dieseace with no cure: Amanda Tapping itis. And she told me it's spreading... I think the syptomps are: seeing her beauty, her '' the girl next door' attitude, the loyalty, the SAM liking the... If you have any of these symptomos, go to your local Doctor IMMEADIATLY

great list!!
ok, from the pov of someone that's listented to a lot of them, well through s6 or 7
jim menard is fascinating only if you're a film student. He gives great detail, just not quite the detail your average fan wants to know
the disclosure commentary is worthless. gary jones isn't credited, but he did it with don and the two fo them talk about anything and everything but the episode
peter deluise seems to have an obsession wiht constipated looking jaffa, so his commentary jumps in the gutter at the first opportunity and never gets out...personally, the potty humor gets kinda old kinda fast for me
martin wood's commenary are good, so are amanda's and chris'. never listened to MS's. jim menard's dry commentary gets kinda boring, PdL just gets on my nerves with the potty stuff, joe's are okay, so are paul's - he's pretty quiet.
I can't remember about tichenor's or the other folks'

What do you guys think, should I wait or what? I'm very glad to hear that they spook very highly of Amanda, about how she was great and how she was always prepared, that's our Amanda, that's what they and we'd come to expect from her .Originally posted by LilFerret View PostI am going to wait. That way I won't waste my money on multiple seasons and I can just buy the whole thing like you can now with SG-1. Although...that's a lot of money at one time!
I still haven't seen it yet, but I will, and between now, and until the show ends, I'm not going to buy the other DVD's, I really want to because I want to hear Amanda's commentaries and such, but when I do buy the Atlantis set, I'll have both the complete SG-1 and Atlantis series' on DVD *YAY*
