Imagine her in The Serpent's Venom, Legacy, or The Fifth Race... It doesn't work. It's not about 'are the characters good' or 'are they valued'. It's about 'will they work'.sigpic

Originally posted by madaboutdanny View PostI haven't much hope for this movie, not for Vala, but because it will be a Jack movie and if he will be the same Jack of the last 2 or 3 years, well I'll be really disappointed. I want back the old Jack, the old Jack/Daniel chemistry, their banter, their argument, not Jack the comic relief.
I also agree with whoever said that having the Vala character would mess up the dynamics of the other characters in a way that Cam doesn't. If Vala were around Daniel would be so irritated with Vala that he wouldn't have time to banter with Jack.
amconway, thanks for the info about Daniel! I would be so unhappy if he weren't in the movie. He and Jack together is what makes SG1 so great.sigpic "We do get paid for this, right?"

But it can't get in shape or doesn't want to, then I think they should make his age part of the story, i.e., little jokes about how he can't go running around like he used to or something. Because he looks older than Beau Bridges, imo.
I for one, am just happy that he's willing, and able, to do this movie. The important thing is character and relationships between the team members, not his ability to run a mile.

You're definitely not alone. People who don't like something generally have the tendency to be more vocal about it than those who like something or aren't bothered by it. And the likes and dislikes of the people on this forum (or any online forum) are just a tiny, tiny fraction of the overall viewing audience.
While I prefer Colonel Jack to General Jack, I still think any Jack is a good thing.

However, I do believe he needs to lose weight now (for his own health) and for the third movie. I love Jack and am glad that RDA is going to be in the third movie, but I think everyone would be happier to see a, RDA/Jack who weighs about 25 pounds less than he does now. RDA is very aware that he's overweight and out of shape. He's got the money to hire a trainer to help him lose the weight and I'm sure he will.
As others have said, a Jack-centric story doesn't have to center around Jack as an "action hero." He was never a big action hero before, so I don't know where people get the idea he has to be one now. Wasn't a big action hero in "The Fifth Race, Abyss, Paradise Lost, Solitudes" (just to name a few) and those episodes went over quite well.

Actually, he had surgery on his feet within the last 18 months. The fact is also that he started putting on weight BEFORE the surgeries, soon after he "retired." Nothing unusual about that in my opinion. I think he was far too thin in S8 and 9 and one often gains some weight in "retirement." What a relief it must be for an actor to NOT have to always worry about how they look all the time, especially in his case, after having to have been concerned about his looks for so so long.

Answer: My sources tell me the script is in Brad’s hands and he is working his magic as we speak (er, write).

That is good news that BW has his hands on the script. Hopefully, it won't be too much longer before we hear some more about this film.sigpic
