SG-1 not in new film! - Science Fiction Fantasy Chronicles: forums

Indiana · 8th April 2001, 03:00 PM

I recieved an e-mail from MGM telling me that SG-1 would not be in the new film. Dean Devlin and Roland Emmerich will return to conrinue with the original story that they intended to do. Stargate will become a Trilogy and it's success will lie in Kurt Russells and James Spaders talents. Despite rumours of an SG-1 plotline MGM believe that it would be more beneficial and more profitable if they stuck with the original idea. A mainstream audience would not understand the storyline and what has been going on in the last 4 years with SG-1. This is the reason that the TV show will be axed. They cannot afford to run two conflicting storylines so they will drop SG-1 and replace it with Stargate 2.

um... questionable....

Even if they do go back to the original with the film then i don't think this means they will drop the show at all. The main reason they are considering doing another film must be the popularity of the show. I don't think they will drop the popular one to bring back the other!

That's what I was afraid would happen. Ratz.

What a pity! I hoped it'll be SG-1 in the new film.

Jaxie · 10th April 2001, 04:58 AM

hold up, this is for real.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOO

can they actually continue on from the film?:evil: :evil: :evil:

probably like they did in the books but still not good i don't think. I do actually recon they could do a film with sg-1 that everyone could watch, you would not use any of the characters already introduced so far apart from the very core, and peraps Tho'r - maybe a new goa'uld thread or something like that. If you make it very new then the new watchers need no more explaining than the old viewers.

just doesn't sound like it would work.
and hey are the books not based on the series

How come you get e-mails from MGM?! D'ya know when they are gonna start filming? And y is this page so wide?!

padders · 22nd April 2001, 10:57 AM

- books continued the series as opposed to the film, so this will make the 3rd timeline starting from the end of the first film - a bad idea in my opinion.
- it is so wide because of all the OOOOO on one of the posts above, i broke up the O to shorten it.
- MGM emails can be got by subscribing at MGM for their annoucements, can't remember if you need to go to www.mgm.com or their stargate site.

Why do you ask?

padders · 23rd April 2001, 08:50 PM

I am sure it was just a question asking if you did. Please lets not have an argument about it.

i don't get it, if their gonna carry on from the original film how does that work??? So much information has come out of the series that if they went back to where they were in the film what would they do???

Considering you still have Jack and Daniel in the original film would they go back to the first ep of Sg1???
