I can not belive that MGM isn't going to give us the full 90 minute version of Threads. Threads would have been the only reason I would have bought Season 8, plus its the last full season with Jack, and now this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Belive me I am going to write them and give them a piece of my mind.

I don't think anyone is bashing Sam, I think as others have said it is the way that TPTB are portraying her recently that they take offense with. Me personally I am a huge supporter of RDA and I also enjoy AT. Have I been happy about the so called comments she has been making about the ship between her and Jack, No; but I haven't enjoyed too much about the ship lately.Spoiler:I guess because we got next to nothing this season so far;

But do they think that people in US will buy 2 different boxsets ? One with the short version and one with the long version ?
I mean, they already know about the whole downloading 'traffic', but with this kind of things, it will only drive people to dl even more...
I've bought S8 boxset, not because I've really enjoyed this season (cause I've not, except maybe 2 or 3 eps...), but because it was the last season with Sam AND Jack. And also because of the audio commentaries and all the extras that we don't get to see on french tv (like Behind the Stargate or Lowdown...)
Now if there hasn't been those extras and if we had got the short version of Threads, it would have been a big 'NO' for me. I know other ways to spend my money...Flo ~ FBI - Proud Shep Thunker - Proud member of the Ship Ship Hooray Special Ops Team !

Now that we know that the 90 version of Threads is not included in the box set(region 1), do you still plan on buying it?
I didn't plan on buying season 8 anyway. I had saved off the eps that I liked on my DVR. But if I had planned on buying season 8 because of Threads, it would have been a real bummer.Last edited by Rogue; 05 October 2005, 11:30 AM.Odo's last wishes: cremate me, put me in my bucket, then shoot me through the wormhole.

Just dropped in from a crazy day at the office to see what folks were saying about the S8 DVD's which landed on my doorstep this morning before I left for work. So I'm devasted to see what I'm reading. No 90 minute Threads??? What the frak is wrong with these people?? We should have been given the 90 minute version since this was what was aired in the US. How can they say it's the COMPLETE Season 8 of it isn't.
Isn't this misleading advertising?????
Sorry for the rant but I was really looking forward to watching it before the Yankee game tonight!

Hi
i'm new to the forum, but have been reading threads for a while now.
I am a big Sam/Jack shipper fan and living in england we are just getting season 9 i just wondered if anyone has seen some of season 9 and can give me a small glimmer of hope that Jack and Sam have hope?
I live in hope that something will happen since they hinted at it with Sam calling off her wedding because she loved Jack and Jack braking up with that other woman who mentioned him working as a civilian inorder to be with Sam.
Some one please give me some hope! since i have no friends that share my love of Jack and Sam i can talk tosigpic

Well… I watched Lost City part2 tonight… I love that episode
And what with theSpoiler:“I know”, “Please… Jack”, and the way Sam looks at Jack when he’s all icy and sleeping …OH and how it ends on Jack like that…
By the end I was in tears!
Bu the thing that confuses me… is that they said, more than once, that it was the last episode from the previous series… LOL… its weird, because you would have thought that at least one person associated with skyone would have noticed…*shrugs*
And YAY for S9… starts next Tuesday...
*grins*
Hey sarahjones3! Its great to see you… I’m from the UK too…whereabouts are you?? As for S9… hm… apparently there are a couple of very small things… but don’t have your hopes up too high…
But who am I to say anything! I haven’t seen it myself yet, obviously... so I guess I’m with you on this one…
And you can be my friend! I have a couple of friends who like stargate… but no real shipper friendsSam&Jack

I'm afraid (specific spoiler for s9, don't read if you don't want to know)Spoiler:there isn't much ship in s9. However, in Ex Deus Machina, Agent Barrett is quizzing Sam about her breakup with Pete and her life in general and asks her if she's available, and she says "not exactly". It's not much, but we know that she's not available because she's with Jack!

And the writing is, of course, very well done.Last edited by sg-1fanintn; 05 October 2005, 05:49 PM.

Originally posted by Sum1I'd like to steer the direction of the conversation in another direction related to the issue of TPTB's handling of ship over the years. My question ot you all is which writer you think has done the best job of writing ship, not just in moments, but also in terms of storylines. I'll give a listing of some of our "favourite" writers and the episodes with ship they have written.
1. Brad Wright - Solitudes, Into the Fire, Point of View, A Hundred Days
2. Robert C. Cooper - Point of View, Nemesis, Crace, Chimera, Threads
3. Joe Mallozzi and Paul Mullie - Window of Opportunity
4. Damian Kindler
5. Peter DeLuise - Entity, Death Knell, Affinity
6. Heather E. Ash - Beneath the Surface
7. Jonathan Glassner - The Broca Divide, Point of View
Just list them in order of best to worst. I didn't list There But For the Grace of God because it was written by David Kemper, the producer of Farscape, who wrote only that one episode to my knowledge.
Anyone else find it interesting that the first episode Jonathan Glassner wrote for the series (outside the series premiere) had Sam in a tank top jumping Jack in the locker room?
