something amanda said recently (it might be in her kamil audio interview) that she wasn't sure how much of the 3rd movie she could be in, because of scheduling/sanctuary. that kind of bothered me, because sam IS stargate for me. but, what you said above (the highlighted part) makes me feel VERY good.
thanks, melora.sally

Answer: As the actors pointed out at the recent mewhosits Con (that my spell-check changed to Methodist Con), there are no deals in place as of yet [Dec 08].

From March/April 2009 SG Magazine:
"I'm hopefully going to be a part of both [movies]! There's a possibility of a cameo for me on the Stargate Atlantis movie! It's not confirmed by any stretch, but obviously with the Stargate SG-1 movie shooting at as well... I don't know how it will work. Even if Sanctuary is shooting at that time, we'll make it work! This is going to sound so hokey, but I would do anything for Brad Wright. Ever since I met him, that man has been in my corner, so if he said 'There's a Stargate SG-1 movie and we're shooting it NOW!' I'd be like, 'OK! I'll be right there!'" - Amanda Tapping
I believe that it is pretty clear that no contracts have been signed. But it is also pretty clear that TPTB have approached at least RDA, AT, MS, and CJ to be in the SG-1 movie. I can only assume they also asked AT if she would be interested in doing a cameo role in the SGA movie. However, I don't know when the interview took place and things sometimes change. I would recommend that no one get their hopes up until the contracts are signed, the cast lists are officially announced, and the movies go into production.

I think Amanda could have had a lot of fun with any of the Stargate characters. There could potentially have been a lot of fun with her playing Teal'c (although Teal'c would have definitely been an intimidating warrior in a different way) but that kind of straight faced humour and gradual adjustment of language and culture over the series would have been fun for her I think. Not to mention the arse kicking coolness of Teal'c
Daniel would also be a good one.
I don't think she could have played Jack because she was too young for that at the start.

Hi Everyone,

Originally posted by Chelle DB View PostAnyhoo, love the posters starlover...thank you for the pics Lies...not sure about Amanda's dress though...honestly??? I don't like it. But her hair has definitely gone blonde again...I wonder if they will keep it blonde for the show? I'm not sure if I have asked this here or not, but do you think Helen's hair went dark as a result of the vampire blood?? Looking at Tesla and well all of the Five, they all...except John...seem to have dark hair...could that be a bi-product of the blood??
Night all. Take care and have fun! (((Samandans)))

What i find the most frustrating, re sam's life, in the past few years, the first scenes that get cut for time are interaction scenes. Look at Ripple Effect, what we got vs what Joe posted that got cut. the scenes that got cut were, by and large, scenes that fans had been saying 'yeah, cool eps, too bad they didnt' do.....' and they were scenes with sam and janet or sam and martouf or other interactions.
I've lost count of times when, during commentaries, we've heard 'yeah, there was a scene between.......but it got cut for time.
It seems that, from an editing standpoint, character interaction takes second place to effects and booms and glitzy stuff.
the thing is, those character interactions are what made the show so great to begin with. more fanfic was spawned from a 30 second wordless exchange between sam and jack in Upgrades than any battle scene.
The character moments are what make a show interesting and give it more depth than any amount of explosions can.
and in those character moments, we could have had some of sam's issues addressed. Little throwaway lines like 'cassie's home for spring break this weekend' or imagine the wealth of emotion we'd have gotten from a sam and vala scene where sam talks to her about being a host and how they've dealt with it, or sam and vala talking about Adria and children and futures and all that
those are the 'boring character interactions' that the editors/directors/producers cut first, but they're the richest and 'best' scenes for fans (at least those of us whose first love isn't 'wow, look at that blow up')
If they had left/put some of these in, i think all the characters would be richer and we'd have some inkling about how the characters felt about some of this stuff

Originally posted by Rocky89 View PostBasically, what I'm saying is the SGC has been put in danger a LOT, Sam doesn't need to go off-world to be killed, it can happen right there at the SGC.
If she had a "normal" military job, maybe, but doind what she does for a living, I don't know if she's ready to bring a child into the world with all that going on.
I mean Chelle, when you meet Amanda for the first time, and she's wearing that, what would you do?
Still love you (as a friend). *Hugs*
If I met Amanda and she was wearing that dress...well of course I wouldn't say anything. I don't mean to sound judgmental on her choice of dress...I just thought that dress wasn't that....nice!
And I love you too Rocky...as a friend of course!!!

Ignore the gender of the characters in the movie.

I highly doubt her hair will ever be blonde in show for anything other than flashbacks. Because remember, Amanda wants Helen to be nothing like Sam, that's why she has the accent, the hair, all of that. As for the drees, I was a little unsure about her dress at first, I like it because it makes her look... what's the word... I don't know.... Also, one of the first things I noticed is that she's showing less "leg" than usual .

Now for the answer I would really have liked. I could see them putting her as Major Davis or the 'off-world love interest' very easily. Of the more main characters..........hmmmmmmm.........I don't know. With glasses she would be Daniel. I don't ever see her as Jack or Hammond. Janet, yes. A gate technician, yes. I could see her as Teal'c, but the character would have to be a little less 'physical' and more 'intellectual'. Or maybe I should say 'physical' in a different way. Nobody could ever hide AT's beauty.Last edited by hisg1fans; 10 March 2009, 04:38 AM.

Mainly cause Apophis is a really amazing bad guy! I guess that has a lot to do with the fact that he is the first... It was a really good developed character. And he was more then just a bad guy. He had his own backstory and everything! I loved that about him.
And I think Amanda would do great as him, because (as she has shown us with RepliCarter - Sam Carter) she can make the differences between evil and good. And that is something Apophis had. He was evil but also tried to show his human side if he needed too...
Although I can see Amanda as Janet Frasier too, or even Jack and Daniel.
But if I could chose I would go for Apophis.. Cause I loved replicarter and the evil in her. And I think Amanda did an amazing job!! I think she should do the bad guy (or girl ) more.
