Okay, first of all I want to say that the season finale of stragate atlantis is off to a kick ass start, even thought the wraith are close to the city and the last line of defense is gone. But anyway, I was watching the scifi channel and saw the commercial for the siege part 2 and they say that " Antlantis faces its darkest hour" and that bugged me because I think that the darkest hour was when we steped throught that gate causing the wraith culling to start. What y'all think.

Actually, we woke the Wraith up when we killed the hive keeper (if you want to get really technical ). In my opinion, stepping through the gate to Atlantis would probably be one of Atlantis's highest moments. Just the thrill and exhiliration of getting to Atlantis in the first place, if you know what I mean.

As for "Atlantis's darkest hour", I would tend to say that the situation the Atlantis team is facing right now (having only seen the first part of Siege) is pretty dire. To the Atlantis population, they're facing the prospects of defeat right now. They know it's doubtful that the defense systems on Atlantis can hold back the Wraith threat. So they are truly on their own against a powerful enemy (not too mention vastly outnumbered). So in my opinion, Atlantis is facing it's darkest hour right now.

It's definetly the darkest hour for Atlantis, though i bet (and hope for plot sake) we see darker or at least as dark hours

Spoiler:

actually if you read the plot in the atlantis section, you will find out that renforcement comes from earth with an array of weapon to defend Atlantis.

It's the darkest hour so far...but it is season one and hours continue to always get darker.

[Hyperspace]

No spoilers please, michael! I don't even know if that is true.

Having seen "The Siege part 2", I can honestly say this IS Atlantis's Darkest hour since they got there. Wait till you see it.

Surely atlantis being attacked by the wraith in a full scale attack is their darkest hour! What could be darker? Also, even if they did hold of the attack, there' thousands more hive ships out there, they're in some really big poo!

[immhotep]

atlantis's darkest hour will be when the wraith are surrounding the solar system with 60 hive ships, no back up in any form, no power, running out of ammo for the p-90's, no drones/ PJ and mckay,shep,teyla, super-ford, wier, becket, zelenka are dead!

Ok you know there is going to be a season 2 so the writers will bring in some hoses to wash that wraith poo off. I was reall disappointed spiloer:when the space station weapon was destroyed so quick I mean it was at full power you would expect there would be shields of some kind just one shot and bam its gone. Oh well

Cant wait till Friday its gonna be a BBQ baby...a Wraith BBQ that is...

well it took tonnes of its, both hive ships just layed into it, and i think they only managed to charge weapon cause they rerouted ALL power to the weapon to make it fire

Hope I did this spoiler stuff right:

Spoiler:

I was quite disappointed with the plot of part II, in particular, who believes O'Neill would have sent a j*ck*ss like that military type. Not only a weak plot device to generate non-believable conflict with the regulars, but stupid in that he ignored assets. However, McKay's dialog about this was funny.

And can someone tell me why the wraith don't snack on the people they kill in combat? I still think as villains they belong in a horror show, but if you're going to have horror show villains, at least use them that way.

One vote for having Teyla change her haircolor from that unflattering red.
