    There were some good parts and bad parts in this episode, but mostly it was good.. Except the ending.. Well it wasn't really an ending. It seems like they ran out of time and said okay, this is the end. See ya later. Not even a to be continued.
    Yea i felt that too. The battle scene was only in the last 5 mins even though that was cool. We only got to see about 30 secs of the f-302s taking it to the goa'uld fleet.

    I just loved Jack's facial expressions though. He doesn't even need to say words to do good acting.

      Whats wrong with Jelly Fish people. Maybe millions of years ago when the Ancients were at the height of their power there was a type of jelly fish that were really powerful beings that died out and so the Ancients made weapons that reflected that.

          I was just watching the lost city on my DVD season 7 box and just realized something. When Anubis and his 30 motherships enter earths orbit and start prepairing to take out Earth. why did he do it so oddly.. in the past 8 seasons we have seen how the Goa'uld take out planets that dont want to submit to there rule.. they just start with 1 city at a time and absolutly destroy the whole world.

          Now in the lost city episode Anubis seems to take his time.. first he takes out a buncha battlecruisers in the ocean than he takes out the communications of the planet.. i mean why would that be any consern to him? its never Goa'uld's care for what the planet in question has they just send everything they got at once.

          One might say he was carefull about what he did because he wasnt sure if Earth had the weapons of the Acients but that wouldnt make sense either because thats why Anubis sent 3 ships to scout Earth first and see if there was any danger for the other Motherships.

          any thoughts on this?

            Dramatic tension

            He may also have been hoping to capture the Ancient weapons if he could. He did try once he found where they were. I guess he just didn't count on them being so powerful.

              I was going to say how he couldn't be sure that they didn't have anything of their own to offer an organized resistance to him, but it just occurred to me:

              In "Threads" they kept showing how ascended beings could see all kinds of things, so he should've been able to know exactly what we had... Weird...

                Yes, but in Threads they also said explicitly that Anubis might know everything an Ascended being might know, but he can't act on it unless there is a way for him to have known it/figured it out as a normal Goa'uld. Which must be very frustrating. As to why he didn't just start frying cities, remember he didn't know if SG-1 had found the outpost yet; he was testing the waters, hoping not to get in too deep if they did get their hands on something. As it turned out, SG-1 got what they were looking for at the absolute worst time for him: after he'd committed fully to the attack and couldn't escape in time, but before he could crush the Tau'ri.

                  Did you get the 'Lost City" to play without all that garbled interference in the picture Tony?.

                      I think that we do not yet know the reality of what an ascended being truly knows, because in "Reckoning" Anubis said to Ba'al, is that right, I don't know, but anyway he said that you have no way of knowing what is, and what is not necessary for the grand design. Perhaps the ancients and Anubis already knew that Sg-1 would defeat the his forces, with the ancient tech.

                      Think about it, as ascended beings, enlightened and everything, they probably contain the destiny of many worlds in their collective ascended consciousness, maybe Anubis was just playing the role that he was destined to play!

                        Umm, I think Anubis
                        Spoiler:
                        was just trying to save face (it was in Threads after the Replicators had been defeated) and still appear almighty even before Baal, who probably doesn't really understand what an Ascended being is. Speculation, yes. But also keep in mind that if the Ascended beings could see into the future, Anubis wouldn't have been so surprised by SG-1 blowing him out of the sky in this one and then being attacked by Oma in Threads. The other Ancients looked surprised as well.
