I see your first newbie question has already been answered, but if you come across any more words or things that make you go 'huh', you can always check out the shiptionary - there's a lot of stuff in here that's a bit, um, well, peculiar to us...
And if Jumble and Jasmina and Nad haven't scared you off already (Jann's on holiday, so I guess someone had to fill the vacuum ), hopefully the shiptionary won't convince you that we're completely nuts and you'll stick around, post lots and have a lot of fun We do!
Edit: MOP = Member of Operation Penguin, our campaign to TPTB to get confirmation of Sam and Jack's relationship. It's been going pretty well so far
Few looks from the "500 looks between Sam and Jack" thread
I'm nice...not crazy.sigpic

Originally posted by JenniferJF View PostThird Stargate Movie:[spoiler]And, speaking up on a third movie of Stargate Universe. Here's the thing as I see it (I've slept AND I've got coffee, so this may be more coherent than I was this morning): We Need Closure. I dont' mean just us shippers. I mean, SG-1 fans. We need to KNOW what happened to Jack, and Sam, and Daniel, And Teal'c. And, since some people care (well.. I do honestly ), Vala and Cam. Obviously, for me, some of the what happened to Jack and Sam involves what happened to them together, but..
Point is, we need an ending. Or at least, something which could actually serve as an ending. Or at least, some sort of decent send-off to these characters we've come to know and love over 11+ years (oh. My. That's. Long!!) years.
That is all I have to say about that. But, I don't think it's too terribly much to ask for. Is it?Originally posted by DutchIndeed View PostI think you're absolutely right.
Eventhough I really don't want to see The End just yet, I also think there definately should be one. Frankly, I think TPTB also believe that. Ok, unending may have been a lousy way to actually end it, but I like to think that that only happned due to the movies...
But anyway...
Yes. I usually hate it to say that 'we' (as in fans) deserve something, but IMHO, this is a time I'll do it anyway. I think fans who have been following the show for over ten years 'deserve' to know what happens to the characters.
Which has to be a hard call, on their behalf. Obviously AoT was deemed successful enough to warrent consideration of Movie #3 (That's Stargate: Revenge of the Ship, isn't it? ). Probably they're just waiting to see how the numbers for Continuum play out before giving that green light. They'll want to know how a stand-alone movie that doesn't wrap up a two-year storyline does. I think if sales are high, a 3rd movie is in the bag, regardless of Series #3.
So...with someone handing them a nice big check to go make another movie, are they really going to write themselves into a corner with a grand finale? From a character and story telling standpoint, it might be the right thing to do. But from an employment and business standpoint, writing yourself out of future storylines is not very good job security. Weigh that against the risk that, while Movie#3 might fly, MGM may decide not to procede with Movie #4...or it may switch to SGA movies by then. I'm sure TPTB would love a crystal ball so they could know exactly when to call it quits and give us the ending they'd no doubt like and which we (and the characters) so justly deserve (and I'm not speaking ship-justice...just broad fan-based, justice, as Jenn said).
So...in some ways, I feel badly for TPTB. Their future...and ours...is both in and out of their hands, subject to the whims of higher ups, the fickleness of the fan base, the vagaries of the economy and the eroding of opportunities where they can actually make money off their efforts when so many venues exist for people to enjoy them without paying for the pleasure.
Ah. Science Fiction meets the real world.

*tear*
honestly, i think this thread is what i have been searching for these past few months
this operation penguin has to be the best thing anyone could ever had thought of
i'd be prepared to wear a penguin suite if thats what it came to
black is a flattering colour after all"What we need now is a tactical retreat. Did you see the episode on Stargate where they found themselves on a planet with a culture based loosely on Earth Athens and Sparta?"

Originally posted by AstraPerAspera View PostOh I heartily agree. We need an ending.Unending was just that...an un-ending. Like an un-birthday. And deliberately so. And I honestly think TPTB would like to give us an honest to goodness conclusion--when it becomes apparent that there's no place else to go.
What I'd like to see, in a third movie, would be more of an ending, but one that would still let them bring the characters back if they chose to do so. Let us know exactly what's going on with Sam and Jack personally, and also where they're at professionally. Does Teal'c stay with SG-1, or find a place back home with the Jaffa? And same for Daniel, does he stay or move onto something else? Any of this, of course, could be changed if they did future movies - just bring them all back for whatever the reason is for that one story. Babylon 5, imho, is a great example of non-closure closure . But, give us 'closure' on this particular group as SG-1 going through that gate together on a daily basis fighting Galactic Menace X. You could still do special event movies, and we'd still get closure.Originally posted by AstraPerAspera View PostSo...in some ways, I feel badly for TPTB.

Which reminds me, and I suspect it's been said here and elsewhere. Even if you've seen Continuum, please, please please buy the DVD. More than anything else any of us can do for the future of SG-1, spending money on that DVD is, I'm certain, at the top of the list.
*steps off soapbox*
Hmm.. Susannah, maybe we need that OT thread for SG fans who happen to be shippers
