I don't think that SGU deserves a movie. Furthermore, any SGA movie that comes out should not have anything to do with SGU. SGU is just a stupid retarded Idea that is not Stargate. It should really be more tied into the Battle Star Galatica Series, than Stargate.
Rant sort of starts here:
SGU is a big fat misfit, Sticks out like a sore thumb.
I would have respected the show, and the writers just like I do the Battle Star Galatica ones. If they had not tried to make that type of show be Stargate. If they would have created a completely Differnet Franchise for it, and put it in an entirely New Series, not assoicated with Stargate at all. I think it would have done very well, Or at least a lot better then it did. It might have gone to 4 or 5 seasons. Hell, if they would have just ran SGA along side of it, it would have done better...well maybe not. No. I do have to admit, if you disassociate SGU from the Stargate franchise entirely, and call it something else. It was a good story. And, would have made a good show, that the BSG fans would most certainly flocked too.
But, he had a show that he was trying to "Get a Free Ride" off some already existing fan groups. (BSG fans/SG fans)
Neither one of them were willing to accept it well. Some did, but a lot did not. I think the Main Base of fans from SGU were not pre-existing fans of BSG/SG at all. I think the most part of the people that "Loved It" were new fans. In other words it generated it's own fan base.
Because BSG fans might have liked the aurora of the Dramatic theme of the show, they still for the most part think Stargate is stupid in general.
Then you got the Stargate fans, that think BSG, and Drama is Stupid.
I started watching Sci-Fi years ago, because I like Science Fiction. Not, melodrama. You can get all the drama you want from the networks. I don't even watch networks anymore. I have cable. Why do I need to watch networks? There are tons of other shows out there that are most likely better than this steaming pile of mess, as far as drama/melodrama goes. No, I can't name them, because I don't watch them. Why you might ask? Casue I'm not a fan of it?
I don't want a series of dramatic role plays of intense human emotion, and human physche, for a Sci-Fi show. That is exactly why I did not like BSG.
I want to see technology of Science Fiction. Ships! Forms of Space Travel! Aliens! Impactful Calimaties! Battles, perferably in SPACE! You know...pew pew!
There is a saying we have in a lot of online PC video games I play:
Less QQ more Pew Pew! (QQ is supposed to resemble crying/tears).
I would expect a channel that (used to call it self Sci-Fi, I mean any geek knows what Sci-Fi means) but now calls them self SyFy. To understand that. Maybe that is why they changed there name to SyFy, so they can say that they are not really a Science Fiction Channel anymore.
I'd like to ploy HBO or the Science Channel to "Order more "Real" Stargate, perferably in the form of SGA, to air on their show. Looks like the Science Channel is itching for some stuff like Science Fiction to air. I mean they are running FireFly. Maybe they will run Stargate too?
I new reboot could be brought to a channel like the Science Channel. I think Science Channel is goning to be the ultimate Geek channel that I'm looking for, it is certainly doing better than SyFy in my book. I would like to see more stuff come on the Science Channel like this. They even show Real Science too.
