Stargate Rewatch!

[SaraBahama]

Yes the rewatch is going to start with the first season of SG-1.
Although you could start with the '94 movie first if you wish.

Thanks! And that begins Aug. 1st? I'll have to re-start then, as I am currently working on a fic that requires me to watch the movie again. LOVE my SG-1.

Sounds like it will be an interesting fic. ;-)

It's not anywhere near as interesting as your current project (I'm not sure I have it in me to write on the scale that you are)!

It's a gift for a GW member. It's unabashedly S/J ship...so only interesting to members of that persuasion -but hopefully not over the top -mostly learning his reputation and developing admiration.

But it focuses on Sam's work on the gate prior to the events of the SG-1 series (at the meeting she says she worked on the gate for 2 years before O'Neill, and the others went though and she should have been on that team). She was at the Pentagon during that time.

So I need to review the events of the movie in order to glean any information that is relevant.

[SF_and_Coffee]

It still sounds like an interesting and ambitious project, though. (And by the way, thanks for the compliment!)

I just watched the movie again recently, in the process of introducing yet another friend to the franchise, and most of what you'll learn about the gate research is in the first twenty minutes or so of the movie.

Good luck with your story!

So Darren, how come you guys won't alternate episodes with SG-1 seasons 8-10 and Atlantis seasons 1-3? That's the way a canon nazi like me always watches! :]

[Darren]

The goal is to keep the Rewatch discretely to one season per month, and also to minimize confusion for the most casual participants. SG-1 has its own story, and Atlantis has its own story -- and although they were aired together, rarely do they actually intersect.

So, for example, since SG-1 Season Nine has an arc to it, it would be an interruption to break off from the Ori invasion to check in on what Sheppard's team is up to fighting the Wraith. Imagine watching the cliffhanger season finale "Camelot" and then popping over (for one episode, or for a full month!) to the Pegasus Galaxy to watch Sheppard and McKay try and stop Michael's hive ship in "No Man's Land." Interlacing episodes or seasons makes their respective stories dissonant.

So the plan is to watch SG-1's story, then Atlantis's story, then Destiny's story.

I agree with Darren. Keep the stories separate. That's the way i watched them and it made much more sense.

[Byakuya Truelight]

Fair enough. Not the way I watch, but I certainly see the logic in it. Can't wait 'til August.

I'm just completing a rewatch that a friend and I have been doing for almost a year now, but I am more than eager to begin anew! I have other friends who wanted to get involved but didn't want to watch it alone, and our schedules rarely coincided. This way, we can watch it together at our own paces.

[Nindif]

I cannot begin to express how much i am looking forward to this! It'll be like returning to my childhood!

Even though i'd give anything for an SGU Season 3, the Stargate Rewatch has me equally excited!

On a side note; will there be any mention or affiliation with the guys over at 'The Fifth Race' podcast?

Boy it's been a long time since I've posted here!

After spending the last couple months in a state of disarray, watching mismatched seasons, I'm excited that you guys came up with this brilliant idea. So brilliant, I've convinced one of my friends to try and join in. Of course, due to some travel concerns, I'll make sure to figure out a way to get my DVD sets to him, and decide, if I'll watch first, or him.

[NoArmsJames]

This is a fantastic idea, count me in!

[xevgyx]

[Gem of Tigress]

This is a great idea! i'll see if i can find the time.

[Vey]

I'm so down for this! Count me in!
