Sam Carter/Amanda Tapping Discussion/Appreciation

[ann_sgcfan]

Well there is a scene in Farscape

Spoiler:

where John and D'Argo are stuck floating in space...if I remember correctly, they're seeing a battle going on...maybe that?

Or maybe BSG when Lee

Spoiler:

was floating about watching the attack on the Resurrection ship...

I was think about the farscape scene as well. Yes I know I haven't seen the episode, but that's the picture I had in my mind when I read everyone's discussion about the episode... honest.

[Skydiver]

yep, based on one or the other

Spoiler:

which are likely both - at least the bsg one - based on ensign george gay, a pilot in the battle of midway who was shot down and witnessed the whole battle from a front row seat. one little man floating in an ocean while the beheamoths of the world battled all around him

Well, I'm chatting to one or two of the Weir fans who reckon that Camelot was tonnes better than Allies and was an "OMG how fantastic" episode. Standards must be low in camp, if what Ooober is saying is true.

Personally Allies makes me want to come back for more. Camelot makes me miss old stargate when I cared when everyone was blowing up.

[Tracy Jane]

I know it's off topic, but there is finally silence in my room! The only sound is the stream of slightly chatty drunks in the street! There's no screaming, no loud techno music, and I can now, if I so wish, watch my Stargate DVDs without Subtitles. However, I am going to do no such thing. I'm going to wrap up warm in my bed and sleep. Goodnight all and sweet Samandan dreams.

As it is last night of the season, I am going to leave the bar open

Camelot question, with major spoilers:

Spoiler:

Was it just me or did it appear that the Oddesy was destroyed. And seriously, I can't spell Oddesy tonight, must be all the cold meds I'm taking.

But, it seemed to me that it was destroyed at the end. Which would Kvasir's appearance, instead of Thor make more sense to me. I was so hoping for Thor. (I know, it's a puppet. Still...) But if the ship with the Asgard on it was blown up, it's good it wasn't him.

It would also be why none of SG1 was on the ship at the end.

All in all, I actually liked the episode. I think it fell in with my theory on how to like Season 9: Hate the episode before, and the next one is bound to be better.

The King Arthur stuff was a little cheesy BUT-we got a girl who took the sword out of the stone! And much as I love Monty Python, the episode wasn't channeling that movie, for me, so much as an old episode of Dr. Who. So I was okay with it.

Teal'c was awesome. From his line to Mitchell about his overconfidence, to going out to get assistance.

I was pleased that Daniel had quite a bit to do. I like Daniel almost as much as Sam.

And Sam dangling in space watching the destruction of Earth's and her allies' ships? Incredible. Just some awesome acting there.

And if I'm right about the Odessy being blown up-that makes me very happy. I hate the damn ships.

All in all, I was surprisingly pleased. I kept trying to fast forward through the commercials-so that says something.

Someone now please, help me spell Odessy correctly!

Odyssey? is that it?

[tsaxlady]

My birthday is August 12th...

I'm not far away from you... I'm an August 3rd girl.

Wow look at all of us Leo's, Aug 21st here (1 week before Amanda's)

Wow lots of August B-days - mine is August 4th.

- It's the first time I've had time to get on all day - so pardon me as I get caught up on the thread and posts.

[Skydiver]

Thank you! Dang Alka Seltzer plus, makes my mind all gooey.

Really. I thought Allies was fantastic. 10 times better than Camelot.

I have to say I agree with whoever said they were glad S9 is over. At least I don't have to sit and watch and wait for the zing to happen for at least 3 months.

[tsaxlady]

oh, and bonus points if folks can figure what they are homaging...and what real life situation the homage is based on

Okay still working on getting caught up in thread - know I did not watch the show regularly and I'm still getting caught up with watching it on DVD's but didn't Farscape have an episode were a couple of the characters ended up

Spoiler:

in space watching a battle

of course BSG has done it as well this season.

Real life didn't that happen to a pilot during WWII - history is not my strongest area but I seem to remember reading that some where
