"Stargate Universe" Discussion/Speculation (Spoilers)

[Commander Ivanova]

Stargate Universe? Sounds corny, whoever named it doesn't get to name anything else, ever!

[Serebii]

I'm not too sure on the name myself...it lacks the oomph that SG1 and Atlantis have

"Hey...I'm gonna go watch Universe" doesn't have the same effect as "Hey...I'm gonna go watch Atlantis" or "Hey...I'm gonna go watch SG1"

But the name is not indicative of the series so we'll see when plot details come

[Elite Anubis Guard]

Don't like the title, but love the fact the series is moving forwards!

[Atreyu]

I was thinking that maybe it can go one of 2ways

1. The new series is set on earth, but more along the lines of trying to figure out the new asgard tech and how to initrgrate it with our own while tryin to defend ourselves from total enihalation.

or

2. It is set on another planet somewhere in the Stargate Universe and the series could focus on rebuilding after the Ori invasion

Just a thought mind

second option sounds cool except I don't see how it could fit with the "completely separate, third entity" idea they have in mind.

[Artemiy]

I agree with Serebii on this one ^___^ Though I think it won't be the final name.
What I'd like to see is, though it may sound too common, Stargate Chronicles. Like developments of some side storylines... Either still on SGC/Atlantis or offworld - like, duh, Genii SGC xD But that's me... ^___^

It's good to see that Stargate's still going on! ^___^

(Pitry, then my 30X spin-off goes fifth...)

[Atreyu]

Thats true, but then again we don't exactly know what he means by 'completely seperate third entity' as SGA was a seperate entity to SG1. my 2nd theory is based in our time but in another part of the universe with completely new characters that have absolutely no realtion to earth what so ever. That could cover the 'completely seperate entity' side of things?

[Stricken]

The title doesn't have the same impact as SG-1 and Atlantis, but there is still time for it to be changed...

Anyone know what the "working" title for Atlantis was when they were at a similar stage on that show as they are now?

[Pharaoh Atem]

i like the title making it sperate from sg1 or sga not sure how thats ging to go.

[icelandicwolf]

We can not judge the title until we know what the series will be about....although I must admit it sounds poor, but think for a couple of moments, what is left to do in the stargate universe that can be kept in the same era....not a lot that is what, if they want it too be a seprate enity from sg-1 and atlantis, the gate can not be in the sgc...
I would have loved to seen a series based on the NID exploring the gate, but what I think is the more possible conclusion from the title and equally exciting is that the gate has gone public...

[icelandicwolf]

like i said in another thread, i would like to see the gate go public.....

[rosey_angel]

Maybe it's set in an alternate universe?

sounds cool. sorts out all kindsa problems. but it would be difficult to have cross over eps. not impossible, but difficult. which can be either good or bad for the series.

i'm not too fond of the name, either. but then again Stargate: The Ark of Truth has always sounded like a B movie to me, so we never know

[daventry]

I cant wait for this, but wasent there a stand alone Cartoon Series aswell that went very bad.

Stargate: Atlantis, apparently, according to some BW interview, can't remember which. My memory seems to suggest it went the opposite way with SGA - "oooh, Atlantis would be a fantastic name for a spin off! What's it gonna be about then?"

(Pitry, then my 30X spin-off goes fifth...)

Methinks we need a list?

[macktheknife]

I actually like that idea. I agree with what the producer said in the article, about how important that aspect of SG is to the series. I *really* would not watch it if it were set in any other time period (Star Trek: Enterprise anyone?).

You did not watch ST:TNG or Voyager or DS9 either considering they were in a different time period to the original Star Trek?
