Indeed, I applaude you for trying, however, don't you know that messing with the love of fates that is Sam and Jack is destined never to go well? And, yes, I would actually LOVE to hear Sam say that to Vala on the show!

Originally posted by AmberLMHi shippers, quick question: are we allowed to leave the pictures in "quote posts" or do we have to remove the image tags? It's just that loads of people seem to do it here and in the Samanda thread but I only seem to get told off for not taking the tags off in the RDA thunk thread. Is that just a consensus in that thread or is it supposed to be a GW thing? BTW, I'm not having a rant at anyone for doing it or correcting me on it I just wondered.sigpic

Hi Shippers!
I don’t come on here often, but someone asked for different points of view on Amanda's answers about ship at Shore Leave. I had a lovely time and it was an almost surreal experience seeing all of the people and the strange and fabulous costumes...and the actors. I mean... I went into the ladies room and practically bumped into Gigi Edgley as she was walking out. She was talking and joking with another fan like they were old friends. I watched as Corin and some of the other actors engaged in an impromptu game of "catch the tribble" with a young boy. It was just so weird seeing the actors we watch on TV being so... normal, for lack of a better word.
Onto my report. This is just my interpretation and paraphrasing of what Amanda said. I don't remember anything word for word and I might get some of it wrong. I'm putting it into spoilers tags to save space, as I am going to go on and on and on. I apologize for my lack of brevity, by the way.
On Saturday,
Spoiler:ship was asked about twice. The first time was when a man asked Amanda if she could tell TPTB to at least have Jack and Sam engaged by the end of the series. There were quite a few cheers and claps from the audience at this and so I didn’t catch everything that AT said. But she said something like - they should already be married and should be on their honeymoon. Then she joked that they couldn’t show the honeymoon b/c the series wasn’t that kind of cable show. She told the gentleman that she would pass along the message to TPTB. All of this was said in a joking manner and I believe most of the audience found it highly amusing.
The next time ship was brought up, a different man asked Amanda if she ever got tired of the writers stringing out the UST and the ship in general. Amanda very seriously and honestly said that she did get tired of it because TPTB keep drawing it out and bringing it up over and over again and not resolving it. She implied that they should resolve the UST by either a) having them get together or b) not having them get together. In other words (and in my own interpretation of her words) - TPTB need to make up their minds and resolve it one way or the other.
She also felt that each time the ship was brought up it weakened the character of Sam, because it took a strong female character and pulled the rug out from under her. She said that it got to the point that every time the writers brought it up, it made Sam look like the girl pining for the guy and it undermined who she was as strong military officer, scientist, and individual.
However, she concluded by saying that there are definitely feelings between Sam and Jack and that they share a natural bond - and that there was nothing wrong with that. The way I interpreted it was that she was saying that she was fine with there being ship, but she implied that she hasn’t always liked how the writers were handling it. I also got the impression that this refered to how the writers handled it in the past.
On Sunday - (slight spoilers for ep. 200)
Spoiler:Amanda said that there would be something for shippers and something for those of the opposite persuasion in '200'. She said both groups would be happy...and then she added, 'I think.'
There was also a very humorous question that I got a kick out of. A woman stated that she had a question to ask Sam Carter. Amanda turned towards the back of the stage to get into character and then turned back around as 'Sam.' The question was something like, "can you get me a date with Jack, since you're obviously not going to do anything with him." There was quite a bit of laughter and applause and immediately AT (as 'Sam') gruffly said "NO!" She then repeated her answer for good measure, making it clear that this woman should stay well away from 'her' General. It seems Sam might not be doing anything with Jack, but she still is mighty territorial about him.
Someone also asked about what it was like kissing RDA in WoO. Amanda sarcastically said something like, 'Terrible. I mean...it's lucky I get paid to do this because if I didn't....' She then said something like, 'For crying out loud, it's RDA. I get to kiss RDA...I have the coolest job in the world.' She also mentioned that the dip was a spontaneous thing that was added on set, which I thought was a very cool behind the scenes bit of info.
I can't remember anything else about Jack and Sam. Amanda was great and had everyone laughing constantly. In fact, I believe she got a standing ovation on both days. If I remember any more, I'll let you all know. Now I have to get some sleep b/c I got home at 3:30 a.m. and had to get up for work at 7:00. But it was sooo worth it!
Edit: I see some other people have posted their reports. I guess I was too slow. Must be the lack of sleep. Sorry for the repeated info.

Originally posted by LOL4JACKHi Shippers, sorry as always for not being around.... and as for Shore Leaves goes, I have some tiny scoop....
Amanda did not speak much about the 200, she did say that she could be fired but did tell, that we would all love it....Spoiler:There there is something for both sides of the coin to be happy
What I was suprised the most was that the 2 shippy questions that where asked came both from MALE!!!!!!! fans.....
One I remember and it was if the series was to end, could you please have O'Neill and Carter at least be engaged or something that was great!!!!! and she said that why engaged... she wanted all the way, the wedding, the honeymoon..... for the other one I'm going to need help from my fellow shippers... I have bad memory
"Since Sam doesn't want Jack, can I have him?" ROTFLMAO!!!!!!!!! That question rocked and Amanda's answer was great. A short and simple "No!" "Nope" "Never." or NO Way!" I forget exactly what the last negative response was. Oh that was great!
