"Air" (101/102/103) Pre-Airing Discussion/Speculation Thread

[Cameron Mitchel]

Why Air though?

Maybe there's little on the ship, and they have to clamber to... find some... more...

They called it Air as a template name I bet. I doubt the final name will be air. If it will be, then I suggest it change.

[The_Carpenter]

Are they though? From everything I've read it sounds like the people who reach the ships don't go there on purpose...

true..... but its a cool name and given what we know so far it could be made to work

[Xiphias]

I don't know if I wish to speculate on this show. I will definitely be "watching" it.

[Pandora's_Box]

Oh, it's certainly unexpected. A lot of people, me included, thought it'd be named "Destiny" or some derivative thereof.

:: snort :: Please, no.

I like "Air". It's short, it's sweet, it's presumably metaphorical for something.

Honestly, I don't really care what it's called. I just want it to be good.

It does make me think of Avatar: The Airbender....good thing or bad thing?

That is absolutely the most important thing

Here is my speculation, I see two ways of this going down.
1) The "team" somehow accidently use the 9th chevron, which ends up being a security type feature, to gate to the ship which is floating in space. Similar to the atlantis expedition, they arrive with no lights, no power, and they soon find out, no air scrubbers. Again similarly to SGA, they have only hours to find out how to activate the system and save themselves, accidently activating the entire system, the ship quickly jumps away to another galaxy. The team encounter their enemy and have a battle which appears to be hopeless and they meet an alien or galaxy local which joins the team.

OR **fingers crossed**

2) The team is a ragtag bunch on an exploration team in the rocky mountains. They enter a cavern that collapses and they are forced to move further into the mountain. They hopelessly wander deeper and deeper until they come across a ship. Figuring it is their only way out, they activate the ship, only to find it takes flight and leaves orbit for a distant galaxy. Once exiting hyperspace the ship begins scanning the planet and provides a report for the team, while trying to make sense of the report they are attacked. A band of space pirates has detected their hyperspace window and begun to attack. The team tries to fight back but in their feeble attempts to activate weapons they activate the ships AI. After a brief battle they defeat the space pirates with help from the AI, but soon detect there are many more ships on the way. The ship quickly makes a jump and begins scanning the new planet they arrive to, and so begins our journey.

Oh, it's you again.

As bad as the name made be (everytime 'Destiny' comes up I wanna vomit), I agree with this.

It does make me think of Avatar: The Airbender?

What's that?

Well, I'm glad it's not "Destiny" of all things. That would have just been.....bad is putting it mildly.

I was talking about PG

Avatar: The Last Airbender

I know nothing of that show before the links you guys gave me, but judging by what I see it fits with the 'younger' audience they speak of.

Avatar is actually quite enjoyable. The mythology and application certain Eastern traditions are interesting if nothing else.

[GraceONeill]

Knowing TPTB the title is probably something really obscure and they are throwing us something that will most likely change in the future just to keep us at least a little bit interested in the show.

(oh noes, I think the cynicism is getting to me)

But aside from this, I think it's a good title. Short, simple and (slightly) strange.

[Reiko]

Maybe it's the air in their heads.

I like short, meaningful titles... but I think "Air" is a bit... no. "Rising" worked because it was about Atlantis rising. I don't see the connection here.
