Personally I think its totally irrelevant, but we all got hangs up over different things.

Originally posted by meimeiIt was a good episode but what is with the killing off of recurring characters! Can't they kill redshirts instead of people we start getting used to? I mean, is the payroll too high when you use recurring characters! I'm still pissed about the other recurring they've killed in the last year, specifically Jacob/Selmak, Chekov and Pendergast.

Originally posted by DescentAnd what? You want the writers to turn this into Farscape or something with aliens yelling "Frell you" and all that. Its amazing how some of you get annoyed by the most inconsequential little things. With such irritable fans, who needs enemies?
Oh, please. No, really, please. First, ever hear the expression 'God is in the details'? Those "inconsequential little things" help add to the realism (and don't bring up that this is scifi. Even scifi has to have its own realism) of the show. Lets see, I think Sky said the alien could have said something like "I made a mistake" or "an error" and I'm sure they could have found some more formal thing to say instead of "Damn you, Cam Mitchell" without using Farscape language, or even their own made up words. Or, they could have just cut that stupid, playing for laughs (laughing to keep from crying at the idiocy, I suppose) line altogether.
It's amazing how some people feel the need to make a big deal out of what other people discuss about a tv show.
If the episode as a whole had grabbed me, I probably wouldn't pay any attention to the language part. Well, no, I'm lying. The language is my thing. I always think of Daniel as a linguist first. But, if the episode had grabbed me, I wouldn't pay as much attention to the language issues.

I'm not the one making a big deal out of something here.
"Damn you, Cam Mitchell!!" was too on the nose for me as well. It was cliche and unnecessary.
But if your complaining about how aliens on the show use our terminology then you shouldn't be complaining about this episode alone.
I prefer "I screwed up" over some cheesy, cringe worthy Alien swear word from say "Space Race"sigpic

Well, after reading the last bunch of posts, I am beginning to see why SciFi cancelled SG-1.....and don't be surprised if Atlantis doesn't make it to episode 100. Since so many of you are putting down the writing, please keep me apprised of your own endeavors in the field of TV screenplays or even Fanfic. I am always looking for a good read.Last edited by Lida; 16 September 2006, 03:25 PM.On fighting:

You're making a big deal out of the apparent big deal I'm making of the episode. The fact that my reaction to the episode is worth a post that is entirely about my reaction to the episode seems to be overkill.
And, I didn't take an oath that I would only react to things if I could consistantly react the same way in each episode. I reserve the right to hate one thing in an episode and absolutely love the same thing in another. And, to like when one character does something, and get annoyed when another character does it. It may not be fair, but I'm okay with that.

Well it seems the majority loved the episode and thats music to my ears. I hated how many people bashed Memento Mori as I thought it was great and really showcased Claudia's acting ability as "Lifeboat" showcased Michael's. I loved this episode. I was shocked and saddened at Emersons death as I really liked him but I loved everything about this ep. I am so sick and tired of everyone picking apart not seeing the gate in every ep and the Paring of Mticheel/Teal'c and Vala/Daniel. I love those pairings and feel they mesh so well together. I really love this ep and I can't wait for Quest part 1 and Return part 1. The only thing is th ****ing 6 month hiatus! DAMN YOU SCIFI! KISS MY MICKTA!
