"Stargate Universe" Discussion/Speculation (Spoilers)

[Eternal Density]

That doesn't work for me. I was hoping they would have had it all planned out instead of going for big effect and them resolving it later.

That's a poor way of story telling right there.

It read as partly tongue-in-cheek to me.

Blasphemy.

Fans waiting without speculating. Whats next?

Logical analysis of scenes?

[Eternal Density]

So, let's speculate over which names we think got pulled out of what JM calls "the sex hat" for Water... Hmm that adds deeper meaning to 'fixing the lottery'

Scott and Dr. Rush

Scott and Dr. Rush

Which one is bodyswapped with Dr Park again?

[Pandora's_Box]

Its how most shows do it. Even serialized shows don't have a clear plan of how the show will unfold. Just a general idea of the show. B5 being the exception to the rule of course

I know it's how most shows do it and I still don't like it. There's a reason why I find most season premieres incredibly lackluster.

Well television is designed to cater to the masses.

Conversly if you plan too much you risk not finishing the story from cancelliation and I think that happens more people are unhappy over your scenario.

It's SGA all over again...

[jelgate]

It's SGA all over again...

and SG1 and all 5 Star Treks, and Farscape, and Andromeda, and even BSG

[PG15]

It's pretty much every show in the history of TV all over again...

Fixed.

I'd rather it not be finished, to tell you the truth, then see some half-assed attempt to tie up loose ends. Plus, if it does get canceled, then it really doesn't matter if people like it or not anymore.

You mean something like the-drive-that-shall-not-be-named?

They ripped that off from SG-1 with the-ark-that-shall-never-be-mentioned.

Well I rather see the story finished over having another EATG or Unending. If that mean a short term vision of 2-3 seasons over the show then so be it.

Got to love JM:

Spoiler:

Today was the last day for everyone else – Alaina Huffman, David Blue, Brian J. Smith, Patrick Glimore, Jennifer Spence, Peter Kelamis, Haig Sutherland, and Julia Benson – all incredibly talented and wonderful people. I advise them to rest up well this hiatus because, based on what we’ve come up with so far, they’ll be VERY busy in season 2.

Well, those who survive the season finale anyway.

Makes me wonder...

It is SGA all over again...

Next, BW and RCC will take a leave of absence to produce the SG-1 movie and will put less competent people in charge of SGU.
