Just bringing this one to the front so people will see it

Heh,

I didn't know that the Goa'ulds could jump so far....
I love the quote "Alright anyone with a Goa'uld in their head raise their hand"

Hi All
I liked this episode, not one of my fave's, but very watchable. I have a sneaky suspicion that Daniel got Jack's script in this, he got some seriously amusing one liners and I always figured that RDA prowled the scripts to make sure HE got all the best lines. (ooh, maybe that's a tad unfair....hmmmmm). Did it remind anyone of Enemy Mine with Louis Gossett Jnr and errrr...thingy....Dennis Quaid? (except that the first one didn't have a baby.....but then you never know......maybe Him and Daniel shared more than a meal in that cave.......you know, he was invited back.....perhaps for the christening.....)

ok, maybe not

i thought it was a goody, yes not one of the best ever made, but enjoyable nonetheless.
wish they hadn't killed off rothy though. isn't that just like tv, finally give the guy a real part just to ax him?
oh well.
did anyon else have a problem with them just leaving the dead guys behind?
now of course i'm assuming when the guys said they'd get a proper burial they were going to bury them on the planet. isn't that sorta risky? like they already have two or three missing members of sg-11 runnng around, presumably goa'ulded and they're gonna leave rothy and watkins' bodies there...just in time for halloween, night of the living dead!
they don't know about the recuperative powers of these goa'uld.
maybe i'm being paranoid???
ok, any of you with a snake in your head...raise your hand!!!

I agree skydiver, am waiting to see the episode, "Night of the Living Rothman!" They should do as Master Bra'tac does... burn the bodies!

i really liked this epi,and not just because
there was alot of daniel in it. he is just so
adorable when he is helpless. one of my fav bits
was when teal'c blasted that snake, without even
turning round, way cool...peachy

jsc · 18th December 2000, 07:13 AM

Yes. I also like that Sam agreed with him about everyone getting tied up. What a scary situation. Goa'ulds and Unas all around and sitting there tied and essentially unable to defend ones self. She and Jack really trusted T-Man to come through!

peachy · 18th December 2000, 07:26 AM

when they were tied up, and teal'c
was talking to jack, and jack says
"what if it isn't me " teal'c says
then i am not speaking to you.
i thought that was funny as well.
did i mention how cute daniel looked
even with his little face all dirty
..peachy

I know. Michael is a tremendous actor. How one minute he can tug at your 'Little Mother of All Living' heartstrings [okay ... 'Little Father' for some of you] and still leave you wanting to drag him off into the forest somewhere private is always a wonder to me. So childlike and yet so seriously masculine.

I so love Stargate: The physical [character] 'scenery' is so varied and so nice to rest one's eyes upon.

<sigh>

Yeah, it remind me Enemy Mine very much too.

jsc · 19th December 2000, 06:17 AM

From what I have read it was a very deliberate tribute to "Enemy Mine", which got boring after Louis Gossett's Drac character died.

coffeecup · 20th December 2000, 07:57 PM

to me on "enemy mine" it look like they rush on.......

Jsc, D'you mean that the writers of the show had EM in mind when they wrote this ep? Have they admitted it? (see, you've gone and got me all curious now)

jsc · 31st December 2000, 02:07 PM

YES! Have read interview with Josehp Mallozzi or Mullie or Peter DeLuise (writers and creative Cosultant) where they talked about this! The Day the Earth Stood Still (which we saw in Point of No Return) and Ememy Mine were mentioned. I though it was so cool at the time! Marty's house in PONR wasfull of interesting tribute thingies. And in "1969" They did the whole Trek and Star Wars thing!
