"Stargate Universe" Discussion/Speculation (Spoilers)

[g.o.d]

I believe once the movies are out of the way, they can begin full work into this new series. I must confess, I am somewhat anxious to see what new storyline and villains they might have in this new show.

and another invincible team of unstoppable heroes running through the Canadian forests in hope of finding miraculous weapon which will stop a terrible enemy :-)

[Sp!der]

I dont think that the new serie starts before the movies. I hope they will take some time to develop a real good story. Please, Please, Please dear writers, dont make me cry.

i hope not, i want something more human, like i said in a previous post, some team, or large group, stranded somewhere new and exciting, perhaps a new galaxy, with no known way of getting home, and dont say it's like voyager because they don't have a ship

Nope, it's like Atlantis s1...

The key elements of Stargate are that 1) Earths fighting against an old powerful species that can wipe it out if they are given the chance 2) a team are out there looking for allies against this new enemy.

and it's becoming boring

it's really stupid. There's a very old and inteligent enemy and he's defeated in two years(the Ori) by superhumans from Earth

While true, thats the basic elements in a Stargate show plus the fact that its set in the current age with perhaps Earth not knowing about the Stargate Program. In the end, while designed to appeal to Stargate viewers; new shows are tasked with getting a new audience as well. Such people wouldnt know about this formula.

No galaxy full of humans, I'm sick of that.

No galaxy full of humans, I'm sick of that.

but on the other side, it would interesting to see a galaxy full of humans without Alterans' interference. Completly isolated from the Alterans' experiments

i don't mind galaxies with humans in, as long as theres a reason behind it, but when all the aliens look basically human with little bits added, that i can't get behind.

[somme]

Yeah have the aliens a little more alien than star trek's average attempt.

I've got a feeling it will be something like 'Quantum Leap' with a team of explorers utilizing the ninth chevron to explore alternate universes. :shrug: It's an interesting concept, but I don't want to speculate too much. A new hint from the head honchos wouldn't go amiss.

i thought it's been pointed out several, neigh, numerous times that TPTB said SGU will NOT deal with alternate universes as the main concept...


a more sensible look at SGU is that SG1 and SGA have both been limited to a single galaxy for about 95% of the series... sure SG1 goes to the Asgard galaxy and Pegasus and the Ori galaxy, and SGA started in the MW and went to Pegasus, but for the most part SG1 takes place in the MW, SGA in Pegasus... so perhaps SGU takes place not in a single galaxy, but several?

maybe the new SG team stumbles into the middle of an inter-multi-galactic war... or runs into a super-race that is running roughshod over a galaxy cluster?



another thought... the Atlantis gate is the only gate in Pegasus that can dial Earth... perhaps Earth's gate is the only one in the MW that can utilize the 9th chevron and at that there is only 1 9-chevron address in the system...

Well dear me, I appologize for not reading all 59 pages of this thread to see everything that's already been pointed out. I'll keep my opinions to myself now.
