    Our cinemas don't always leave us that choice, especially not when the next showing is only a few minutes after the ending of the previous one, then they chase everyone out long before the end credits have finished.

    Proper Stargate Rewatch -- season 10 of SG-1

      It's really easy, because most of the rewatchers are working full-time or have other daily engagements to attend to so we watch about 3 episodes a week (more episodes = fine, less episodes = also fine). And then we just post our thoughts in the appropriate episode threads right here on Gateworld.

      Every sunday (or sometimes saturday evening) I will post a quiz which spans the 3 episodes of that week (5 questions per episode so 15 in total), and a jigsaw puzzle. At the end of each season I'm planning a poll about that season for which I will post the results at the end of the next season so people have enough time to fill it out (if they feel so inclined).
      No actual prizes can be won, but I might do some little things like avatars for the fastest jigsaw solver, and the slowest perhaps. It's mostly about having fun together. Participation to the rewatch and/or the games is voluntarily. Nobody will tell you, you have to watch the episodes, or fill in the quiz, do the jigsaw puzzles.

      Currently we're in week 7 (just finished week 6), and this week I'm watching Solitudes, Tin Man and There But For The Grace Of God.
      This is the nudge I needed. A re-watch of such a long series is a daunting idea and I keep putting it off, but I've missed it. And it's funny how random memories pop into my mind. As I was tree decorating, something made me remember Teal'c talking about the Easter Bunny and Darth Vader.

        Whoa. The studios may not have a problem with that (money money money), but I can't imagine filmmakers are happy with it.

                  I've completely fallen to my Thor obsession (okay my Loki obsession). I'm now reading fic about it. (Though it disturbs me that I've seen so many people on Tumblr ship Thor/Loki saying that they are not blood brothers so it's okay. As someone who has adopted siblings, let me dismiss that right now. It's still creepy as hell. Ship what you want, but don't use that reasoning.)

                  YES!! I knew Natasha/Bruce was coming because of Tumblr but I wasn't expecting it to be so heavy handed and like SK said for it to fall so flat. But I was also shipping Natasha/Clint after Avengers. They shouldn't have been practically undressing each other with their eyes in the end scene if they were going to have Clint be married the whole time.

                  Even some of the older more distinguished generation that were watching were like “look at those idiots leaving...” Made me laugh so hard.

                  And you really must stay til the end! Cause then you get those little gems like Chris Evans at the end of Spider-Man: Homecoming.
                  Yes it was really quite funny. I was going to say one moment but there are too many to mention.

                  When I saw it the second time almost everyone stayed until the end. I was like "ah, smart people".

                    Happy late Turkey Day! I didn't cook or shop and I went to a Christmas Tree festival that almost made me forget about football drama for a while.

                      On Turkey day, it was a regular thursday so going to evening class and our teacher managed to flood the classroom when one of the pipes in his closed watersystem which connected a toilet, a boiler and a washtable, sprung loose.

                      I've never had so much fun in class...

                        Good morning, Sparkies! Happy Canon Monday!

                        Ugh, power outages are NOT FUN. 20-hour power outages are REALLY NOT FUN. At least it wasn't freezing.

                        Here's this week's (belated) College Football Roundup: USC had a bye and this Friday will face Stanford in the PAC-12 championship game, Virginia Tech shut out Virginia 10-0, Tennessee fell to Vanderbilt 42-24, and in the race for the Atlantis Cup, Air Force beat Utah State 38-35, and Navy fell to Houston 24-14.

                        Honestly, it reminds me of the whacked out shipping that happened with SGA.

                            Another day, another windy night, another power outage. At least this one was only 6 hours.

                            And clearly, they ate their vegetables too.

                                Unfortunately, the people in that fandom don't seem to have understood the tags properly. They tend to mark fic incorrectly.

                                It made me think of the same exact thing. As well as not being aware of the chemistry, and ignoring it instead.
                                Did the same people who did Avengers also do Age of Ultron?
