Best Quotes in 'Continuum'

[Schmacky]

I just recently watched this. A lot of good lines. But I really like Sam's "What further instructions can there be other than kiss your a** goodbye?"

[Lt.Colonel John Sheppard]

I always like our Jack's "never in the history of boredom has anyone been more bored than I am right now." Carter's "What further instructions can there be other than kiss your a** goodbye?", Daniel's "Who would make this s**t up,

alt O'Neill's "I don't have to understand anything! More importantly, I don't want to. As far as I'm concerned, you people are nothing but a pile of paperwork waiting to happen." line as well as him calling SG-1 "freaks. Rick did an amazing job playing Alt-Jack.

Gen. Landry shouting, "But you don't have the RIGHT!"

Ouch

It is true though.. What gives "US" the right to mess with another reality?
And since using the time travel machine would have effectively erased that time line, what DID give us the right to do what we were trying to..?

Hayes: So what's coming next?
Daniel: Death. Slavery. More slavery, more death.
Hayes: Look, if you wanna say I told you so, go ahead and get it off your chest. But then you can do one of two things, you can help, or you can leave.
Daniel: Ok bye.
Cam: Jackson.
Daniel: Right, I forgot to say I told you so!

I loved the conviction he said that with..

Uh, Daniel's Russian is probably like my English. You can understand him best if he keeps his pretty mouth shut

That makes me wonder What languages our SG actors ARE fluent in??

The right to save humanity, because AU EArth from Continuum was in no way prepared to face Baa'l forces which were coming in a matter of months; in OTL Earth had 10+ years experience of facing a less powerful Baa''l and still got defeated

Russian

Hi, my native language is Russian... I went over what Daniel Jackson was saying again and again yet I could only understand "We are Americans..." part, I can't make anything out of the rest... lol I will keep trying... He was actually pretty good in 'Full Alert' speaking Russian with Daria Voronkova

Jack O'Neill: "Never, in the history of boredom, has anyone been as bored as I am right now."

Vala: "You know, I think I might stay awhile and help him through this."
Daniel: "Yeah, I thought you might. Have fun."

Teal'c: "Indeed."

The young Russian solder says "Stinky foreigner".
I can't make out what Daniel answers, sorry.

I know I'm years late to this conversation, but I just recently watched Continuum and tried to use my limited Russian knowledge to figure out what Daniel and soldier said. Here is my best guess.

Soldier: Stinking foreigner [??????? ??????????]
Daniel: You are an idiot with no balls. [????? ?? ??? ??]

How did I come up with this?

Well, the soldier does clearly say, "Stinking foreigners," but Daniel's line is much more difficult to decipher. I know for a fact Daniel starts with the word "Idiot". [?????] But then it he seems to say one word that isn't a Russian word "saballnay"... So, I thought, perhaps it was not one word but multiple words slurred together. In that case, it could be "sa-ball-nay". "Sa" [??] is Russian for "with" ... and "nay" [??] is Russian for "not". The problem is the word "ball" [???]. In Russian, ??? is more commonly used in the sense of a dance, (like Cinderella went to the ball). It could also be a cognate, and understood as a sphere (though, obviously Russians have their own words for a sphere ball as well). I'm not fluent enough in Russian to know if the cognate "???" can also be a euphemism for male anatomy. If it is, then Daniel's line would be "[You are an] idiot with no balls." which is plenty insulting, and is the only way I can meaningfully translate those Russian syllables. Yet, this translation is based on the my unproven assumption that the cognate carries the same euphemism as in English, so please take this all with a grain of salt.

So, I tried to type in Cyrillic for the Russian words in the last post, but they were replaced by question marks and now my post might not make any sense. Sorry!

[harbek]

This post hasn't been updated in a year, but it keeps coming up when I google what the Russian stuff is in Continuum, and now I finally got my Russian friend to listen to it for me, so I just wanted to correct the stuff.

The soldier does indeed go "stinky foreigners".

Daniel says "idioty bolniye", meaning "deficient/sick idiots", sick more in the mentally ill sense.

Hammond was great! I wonder how hard it was for dsd to not recognize them.
