Especially since it's likely that a large portion of the theater audiance will not know or watch SG-1.
And even if they do, you just have to make it simple: it's two continuities.
Different takes on the same original idea.
People aren't that dumb you know. They can understand, just like they understand that many films are adaptations of books, or midly inspired by them, and that as such, there are differences.
I also love how people consider the original movie so badly. It has all the strong bases that were needed to create a show.
Even more, it has the epic and the proper respect of alien cultural barrier that makes the situation even more credible.
Finally, it's still simply a beautiful adventure film.
People give episodes like Reckoning or Camelot high fives. I'd find it particularily hypocrit from these same people to bash the movie.
