Daniel Jackson/Vala Mal Doran Ship/Discussion/Appreciation Thread

[Stef]

I'm watching The Painted Veil right now but I'll stop in to get things started and then when it's over I'll do the whole discussion thing

-Stef

[Stef]

Okay, let the discussion begin for...

-Stef

[Odakota_Rose]

Present!

Adlibed by Ben. Apparently he was really surprised (as was everyone else) when the network kept it in.

Lol, I love it when they adlib. (ie. CB's tortoise remark or MS with the Scooby Doo joke in the high school reunion episode)

Discuss Line in the Sand? Yes or No

-Stef

YES Definitely. Tomin was important.


Edit:


Vala: I love jam!

[madaboutdanny]

I liked these scenes..where Vala talk about marriage...I absolutely love Daniel face...

[madaboutdanny]

Tomin was an idiot.... sorry -not too much - ...Back in topic
Obviously, I adore this moment...Thanks God I never watched Farscape...

Favorite quote:
Teal'c: You are most transparent O'Neill.
Jack: Oh. Funny.
Teal'c: I can see right through you.
Jack: Don't push it.


Daniel: Okay one, that's Star Trek, two, it's ridiculous!

Teal'c: I do not understand why everything in this script must inevitably explode.



Favorite scene:

Sam: Sir, are you in here?
....
Jack: Nope.


And of course the Farscape scene *dies giggling*

Stef, is so nice to see you on the Pond! Today on the Pond is Blue Friday - in Italy is already Friday- Have you some good Blue Daniel for us?

[Stef]

Okay, just finished The Painted Veil. I really liked it, even if it is just a wee bit depressing. *sigh* I love Edward Norton...I love Edward Norton even more with a british accent Back on topic...

Obviously, I adore this moment...Thanks God I never watched Farscape...

Wow, it totally doesn't feel like Friday! I was thinking it was Wednesday Oops.

Okay, just finished watching it all through and I've sprained both cheeks laughing so hard

I'll be back with my faves in a minute but I just wanted to propose another kind of post. Can everyone post the jabs at the show/writers/producers/actors they've found?? I've found plenty and I'll post them too but I just know I must be missing some and I want in on the jokes

Oooh, also, the Farscape scene: #1-Hilarious! #2- It always struck me as odd that they'd keep Vala as Aeryn but not Cam as John until I realized it was a not-so-subtle hint. By changing just MS and BB, they're giving a huge wink to all D/V shippers! Yay for Fruitcakes!

And not that I'm a fan myself but I soooo loved the writers for giving the Jack/Daniel slashers a crumb (in the wedding scene), I thought it was really sweet of them

*giggle*
I was rolling all over the place laughing at this one, I love how completely irreverent it is and I lost track of all the jabs, there seem to be hundreds in here

YES! They threw us a bone there, definitely. I think it was a last minute thing that MS and BB decided to switch places, and I love it.

Martin: That's the Wizard of Oz.
Vala: Oh...you've seen that one.
Martin: Uh yeah...oh *picks up phone* that's my phone. Martin Lloyd.
Vala: Heh, I didn't hear it ring.
Martin walking away: It's on...vibrate.

Favourite Scene

BY FAR the "Jack O'Neill is my daddy" segment...okay not by far, it's really tied with the Farscape sequence.

Okay, time for my favorites...

FAVORITE SCENE:

Young SG-1....(many pictures)

Spoiler:

T-TEALC: Yo dog, what'cha do that for?


T-CAM: Dude, that hot chick was so totally a Goa'uld.
T-TEALC: Duh, but I was still gonna tap that.
T-CAM: You don't appreciate me, do you?


T-SAM: I think you're so totally awesome.


T-CAM: Now that's what I'm talkin' about (ha! nice little reference back to his "catch-phrase").


T-TEALC: Yo, Wonderbread, you got that address figured out yet?


T-DANIEL: Chill T, I'm like translating as fast as I can.



T-VALA: I'm so sick of being treated like some object to be worshiped. I'm a real person with real feelings.


T-DANIEL: You know, I don't think Mitchell likes me anymore.


T-VALA: I'm pregnant.

I just think that whole segment is hilarious. The over-exaggerated teen lingo and then everyone making out with each other. I got some C/S and some D/V. That final line "I'm pregnant" and Teen Daniel's expression is priceless.

FAVORITE QUOTE:

Teen Vala: I'm so sick of being treated like some object to be worshiped. I'm a real person with real feelings! (you know, as opposed to a fake person with fake feelings)

[Stef]

I could be mistaken because I don't remember where I heard this but wasn't it BB's idea to switch, his reasoning being that it would make more sense for Daniel to be Vala's vision of Crichton rather than Mitchell?

There really were so many hilarious moments and lines that I love. I especially like how they poke fun of themselves and the network and reference other shows Makes the sf geek in me happy!

JABS

Sam: It makes the characters look stupid. I mean do you really think the best way to introduce the heroes of the story is to show them causing a massive catastrophe?
Cam: It's realistic.

---Either a jab at the fact that they're always meddling with and destroying societies and their order, or a jab at Children of the Gods (I think that's the name of the first ep of season 1) where they started a massive revolution.

Sam: You know the really unbelievable part is that anyone would consider spending millions of dollars on this thing. I mean seriously, all these writers and they couldn't come up with anything better?

---Jab at the writers...from themselves


Martin: Our Lead backed out. How am I supposed to tell a story without my lead character?
Cam: Easy, just bring in a character to replace him.
All give him weird warning glances
Cam: What?

---Jab, of course, at the insertion of Cameron Mitchell to replace Jack O'Neill

Martin: You guys have to help me. I mean, how can I keep the main character in the story without actually having the actor who plays him?
Sam: Well, you could have the other characters refer to him all the time. Maybe, get him on the phone once in a while.
Martin sarcastic: Oh yeah, right.

---Jab at how they handled Jack's departure

[Milena_D]

JABS CON'T

In Martin's escape scene (the impossible one) where SG-1 is running from the replicators and encounter a valley of Jaffa.
Sam: We gotta go, we've got 10 seconds before the time dilation field is activated. If we don't make it through the gate we'll be stuck here forever!

---Might just be me but I took this as a hint of Unending

Cam: Even if the valley wasn't filled with Jaffa we could never have made it to the gate and dialled out in under 10 seconds.
Martin: Good, see, that's why we're here. So what do you think? 30 seconds? Maybe...maybe not such a round number, how about...38!

---Jab at how they got to the maximum time the stargate wormhole can stay active? 38 minutes?

Daniel: What difference does it make? It's not like you're going to have an actual ticking clock on the screen.
Martin: That's brilliant!
Daniel: That's ridiculous

---Jab at MS's role on 24?
