So anyones opinion on SGU?

Personally I think its great. Robert Carlyle does a great job of seeming as though he was been in the show all along.
So glad to see Christopher Macdonald killed off already, really cant stand looking at that guy.

my thoughts exactly.

i havent seen any of the BSG series, but i saw the pilot movie and disliked it for how serious it was.
hoping SGU moves away from that a bit atleast.

not to mention the shithouse cameos from SG1.
we never see any daniel jackson or teal'c.
so we get daniel jackson, for 5 seconds on screen, ON A FUCKING SCREEN! explaining how a stargate works!

Thats because its Stargate Universe....

Not Stargate SG1...seriously....if expected anything more than small cameos...well you deserve to be disappointed.

And if you discounted 4 Seasons of BSG because it was "too serious"

Then boy did you miss out on an Epic Sci-Fi Series.

oh im not saying its a bad show.

but at the time of watching the movie, i wasnt really up for a 3 hour movie in which a bunch of people stood around and talked.

yeah sure i wouldnt expect much more than a small cameo, but something better than what happened would have been good.
the cameos in the first ep of atlantis were nice, they were short, but they atleast gave some comfort to ease into a new series

Its clear that SyFy wants them to move away from the Old Series' with SGU.

A) to get the BSG Auidence interested since thats finished and

B) Because they're fuckwits.

Either way...it may contain some humor...but yeah, its not gonna be like the SG of old.

yeah i mean why fix whats not broken. the method to SG1 obviously worked..for 10 fucking years! lol

oh well apparently we can expect 3 - 4 stargate movies a year.
not sure if that was aimed at SG1 or ATL, but there is a new SG1 movie announced for next year, and the first ATL movie is meant to be out soonish.

Lol - point B is so cool. ;)

I might give this a go. I loved BSG for the fact that it was more than just lasers and warp-gates. The seriousness of the story was what was so good and original about it for me. And, if you watch the pilot over two nights - as it was originally aired on TV - you get a chance to digest the story overnight. It makes for a better experience IMO.

I highly doubt there will be 3 to 4 movies a year, since the other two got put on ice due to the financial Crisis.

I'd we'll see maybe 1 or 2.

And as to whether the SG1 or Atlantis movies coes first, which ever one is ready first I think will be coming out soon. Thats the vibe I got from Gateworld anyway

Still not sold on the show - but I enjoyed the first couple of eps.

Will have to wait and see.
