I've never been able to compare Star Trek and Stargate well. I absolutely love them equally.

They both have a lot of range. They'll both make you laugh and cry. (And happily give you mood whiplash doing it.) They'll both touch on awesome, thought provoking premises, and they'll also both fuck off into bizarro land for 45 minutes.

Star Trek is an argument for humanity in the future. About how we can improve as a species and contribute to the galaxy in a positive way.

Stargate is more like humanity escaped its pen and is now accidentally causing havoc across the universe while exploiting other races for their technology. And it's great. Because it trades that vision of Star Trek for a modern government, one interested in hard results. It trades the dreamy explorers and geniuses and telepaths for pissed off soldiers and asshole doctors trying to earn their paycheck.

There is also a lot more humor in Stargate.

It really is surprisingly good. I could argue for its spot on the top10 of all-time. Underrated because of its nerdy stigma, mostly because it has star in the name. I haven't watched star trek but from what I understand it's kinda similiar but with the difference that they're from modern day earth. Most episodes are self-contained with a new planet, a new problem, and trying to find a solution to it.

Yeah this is what I loved about Stargate. It felt grounded in reality for a sci-fi show. The military is in charge and they don't give a shit except to steal better technology from aliens. Most of them just want to bury the thing and forget it exists until they realize the shit we can steal. Sure it has that character always arguing for what is right and bringing humanity, but when push comes to shove he gets shut down because it's a military operation and he's just a passenger.

>>83703080
what kind of a retard watches TV shows like this? are you actually serious? fucking burgers I swear

>>83703239
this guide forgets the fact that universe and atlantis were shit compared to sg-1. my guide how to watch stargate:

2. sg-1 all seasons
2. sg-1 direct-to-dvd movies (might as well not watch these to be desu)

>>83703579
>might as well not watch these
well if you've watched all of s9 and 10 you want to see the conclusion, even if ark of truth is kind of a mess

and continuum is pure kino, a damn fine final SG-1 episode

>its too late, the ratings dipped too hard and most people had already given up on it
>kills the franchise so hard they have to reboot it through a movie (which may or may not happen at this point)
not to mention, the reason SGA ended so abruptedly was because the studio wanted to give the creaters SGU, but only if they ended SGA within a certain time frame

>>83702915
It's a mix of both. Most episodes have a new planet and a specific issue. There's essentially 3 layers of plot:
>overarching plot of earth building defenses and earth's relationship with alien races (and relationships of the main cast)
>season plot of whatever
>episode plot of solving a specific problem

So if you were watching it on TV in the 90s and just see an episode, you get a nice story you understand. But because it's 2017 and you're watching all the episodes in order you understand why they're going to that planet, why it's important, how it affects their situation at this point in the story, and you know of the tools they've gathered at their disposal (this is a really cool aspect of sg-1, the technology they steal/copy or just learn and how it's incorporated into their possible actions in each episode, they basically get more and more powerful over time).

The balance shifts, sometimes it's "we have to go to this planet to defend them from attack from the bad guy of this season" and the "episode plot" is just like finding a way to win a battle.
Sometimes it's more peaceful and they have time to do recoinnasence missions, so it's much more of a planet-of-the-week episode with star trek or even a bit of x-files vibes. Something's going on and they have to figure out what. But they might make an ally or reveal something about the team members that comes into play in a future episode. Few episodes past the first season never have a pay off further down the line.

>>83703731
>after a couple episodes they drop 8-10/10 episodes back to back towards the end of the season, the premise actually has some merit to it and seems interesting
I agree. I didn't really find it interesting up until that point, but it got better and was at its peak when it got cancelled. But it was such a short run it's pointless to even start. They were still basically establishing the concept and 2 seasons is a long time to take.

>>83703880
a tl;dr of this
the stargate is the ultimate writing tool, literally anything you want can plausible

>>83703955
Pretty much. But the point is each episode is still its own "mission". It's not like a modern TV show that is just a really long story chopped into 30 minute servings.

In the first seasons the gate stared to glow when someone starts dialing it from the outside.
Makes no sense.

Also the gate coordinate system is not that intelligent.
First it should not matter in which order you put in the coordinates.
It makes no sense that the coordinates are star constellations visible from earth.
They have nothing to do with actual coordinates.

>>83704202
>In the first seasons the gate stared to glow when someone starts dialing it from the outside.

I never realized that but you're right.

in the stargate lore are humans originally from earth and spread by the goauld to serve them as slaves elsewhere, or was earth just another planet where the goauld brought humans to build monuments?

Nigga please. Do you even SG-1

>>83704434
nvm obviously there's a stargate wiki
Humans originated in Celestis, a planet in a distant galaxy. Originally known as the Alterans, they split in two peoples, the Ancients and the Ori. The Ancients later seeded the Milky Way and Pegasus galaxies (probably more) with Humans, as both galaxies seemed to be devoid of sentient life. The Ori later created a new evolution of Humans that served as their worshipers. Humans were found to be good hosts for the parasitic Goa'uld who would take over control of the host's body. The Goa'uld spread humans across the Milky Way galaxy as they traveled.

bullshit. It was Sokar as far as remember. He was heating up the shield to destroy it. The gates were closing after 38 minutes but without the dialing device SG could have opened gates first
>>83704579
it was gates bug. Not a feature

>>83704615
yeah but gates connect to other powered gates all the fucking time. why does it only happen when it's inconvenient to the stargate command? I know the answer is because the episode needs to happen but it's really cheap writing.

>>83704615
>The gates were closing after 38 minutes but without the dialing device SG could have opened gates first

ah yeah, you're right

did sgc ever kill human slaves by setting a nuke at the gate and closing the wormhole on a populated planet?

>>83704657
It only happened if there was a power source. Was there any episode with a power source when it didnt happen? The only thing that bothered me was how come the gates always knew when to close. This was convenient as fuck

I wish Goldsmith would release his soundtracks for SG-1. Some of it was gold and it never saw the light of day.

Fuck you Kinsey

>>83704202
>In the first seasons the gate stared to glow when someone starts dialing it from the outside.

yeah even as a kid I thought that made no sense. how does the gate that is being dialed know that it's being dialed while the dialing is in process? that's like if you dial a phone and it starts ringing before you even finished dialing the number - which may still have changed with every coordinate/number

>>83704793
yfw he did it

>>83704773
wasn't the little crystal thing that was found on most dialing panels a power source? I understand the episodes where aliens try to attack earth but I could swear there were multiple times when they exit a planet and wait for the wormhole to close but it doesn't because it's "drawing power". if having a crystal on the dialing panel is enough shouldn't that happen like all the time?

I distinctly remember cases where they cut back and forth, definitely implying that that is what's happening

>Well earth was the cradle of ancients. It was valid for the earth. On other planets they were just numbers. Order of numbers matters.

wrong. they ended up with that, because they were too lazy to keep it up and decipher the new coordinations on every world (nevermind alter the off-world gate for every episode), but it directly contradicts how that shit works as stated explicitly in the movie AND the pilot of the show, where Daniel explains to Jack and his team that he had been able to recognize some of the symbols in the Abydos archive in the nightsky of Abydos.

they just dropped the ball on the whole issue

>>83705096
>I distinctly remember cases where they cut back and forth, definitely implying that that is what's happening
That did happen a lot, but like the other guy said it's possible there was a delay. Imagine the person dialing all the symbols, then the information gets transmitted to earth but it takes a while.

Like in some early episodes they showed that the wormhole actually takes time to travel through, but they almost cut it as if it's an instant travel from one side to another.

>>83705096
>I distinctly remember cases where they cut back and forth, definitely implying that that is what's happening
I am not saying it wasnt stupid. Also keep in mind that 7th symbol address was utterly reterded idea bc you need only 6 symbols to dial. So once you input 6 symbols the other gate might have already known that someone had dialed it before it opened

>>83705178

well I think it would be more "realistic" or at any rate more immersive if the whole galactic gate system wasn't earth-based. she show revolves around special snowflake "first world" Ta'uri enough as it is, I would have liked that aspect to stay as it was in the beginning. or if it wasn't, do it like that from the start, not just change your mind about it when the show already started.

>it directly contradicts how that shit works as stated explicitly in the movie
for a movie the story is better, sure. but for a show with like 200 episodes it's an incredible amount of work for something that doesn't make any difference at all. the pilot obviously wanted to follow the movie's logic as closely as possible, so they just dropped it as soon as the audience already started liking the new cast.

>>83705676
>Avoid Stargate Universe.
So much potential lost. Never forget

>>83705590
>if your level of immersion is dependent on some tiny make-believe symbols on a cheap background prop

it's not just the prop though, it's the whole way the concept is treated, like in one episode bra'tac will say "hey I know that address, that's planet so and so", which makes no sense based on the original logic, because every address would look totally different depending on the planet you're dialing from

I agree that it's infinitely more annoying that way and I understand why they dropped it, still I liked it when that was one thing where the whole universe didn't revolve around Erf

>>83705718
I thought the premise was pretty stupid.
Why the fuck even bother with gates if you have this super spaceship.
Just to go down a planet? You already have ring transporters established.

>>83705747
>the whole universe didn't revolve around Erf
It literally was as ancients built the gates' system

>>83705794
>I thought the premise was pretty stupid.
agreed. But the ship was stupid as fuck. Both powerful and weak as fuck

>>83705820
yeah I know but it's still another way in which the show is earth centric

humans with earth cultures across the galaxy, because they all came from earth!
the whole galaxy uses the star constellations seen on our planet!

>>83705747
>still I liked it when that was one thing where the whole universe didn't revolve around Erf
I didn't even remember it was earth constellations and you're right that is stupid. It should be just "space numbers". But the whole deciphering addresses for each individual link up would bog down the story and just be a nuisance and a limitation for what the writers can do. In the movie where there's literally just 2 gates it's good but in a vast universe with thousands of gates each of them just having "a phone number" is better just in terms of what the writers can do with it
>hey, I know that address
>quick, dial back to earth (everyone has the address memorized)
etc.

>>83705315
During normal operation, power is drawn from the DHD that is dialing out and the receiving gate doesn't need anything since all the power is coming from the wormhole. As established by the MALP and other two-way communication, energy can be transmitted both ways through a wormhole while matter can only go one way. A wormhole only stays open as long as there is something going through it, or enough energy is being directed through it, otherwise it hangs up once its been idle for a short period. With the nuclear detonation on naquadah rich planet generating massive amounts of energy, the wormhole is receiving some of it and kept open because energy is being transmitted, namely the radiation. There was enough energy near the gate that stayed open for a little bit after the 39 minute window, but not enough to keep it open for longer.

They hadn't perfected naquadah enhanced nuclear weapons and the planet was just full of unrefined naquadah, making the explosion large enough to encompass the planet, but not intense enough to destroy the gate.

The Mark IX used in Beachhead against the Ori was a miscalculation. They failed to account for the fact the opened wormhole would absorb some of the blast, plus the Ori are bullshit powerful and probably messed with the distribution of the explosive force preventing the gate from being destroyed.

They adhere to previously established gate physics fairly well most of the time, but they do it by not establishing that much early on so they can add to it as needed. Lining up both of these episodes actually lends credibility to it since in both of them a nuke didn't destroy the gate but caused more problems for them.

>>83705820
and that was kinda dumb too, like this anon said >>83705862

the whole human origin story was a mistake. during the first seasons when humans were just another primitive species discovered by the goauld it was so much cooler. we live on earth every day, we don't need it to be the centre of the universe in a sci-fi show about intergalactic travel

That's not right. All life in the Milky Way that wasn't The Ancients is because of them using the Dakara 'super weapon' to seed life throughout the Milky Way when the great plague was wiping everything else out. The Ancients ran off to Pegasus to let the Milky Way grow, but they had to come back when the Wraith started to suck their asses up. The only reason Earth-Humanity is the savior of the galaxy is because the Ancients that too dumb to ascend said fuck it and hung out on Earth since that was where they set up shop when they first got here.

When the Stargate is activated, the event horizon (water fountain looking whoosh) destroys anything in its path. After it settles down, then you close the iris.

Jack, may I share something with you? A vision I had in my sleep last night — distinguished from a dream which is mere sorting and cataloging of the day's events by the subconscious. This was a vision, fresh and clear as an event horizon — the mind revealing itself to itself. In my vision, I was on the deck of a vast starship, a bridge of some fantastic proportion. There seemed to emanate from it a light from within — this gleaming radiant trinium. I had known this ship. It had in fact been named after me. This was my first return, a reunion with the deepest wellsprings of my being. Wandering about, I was happy that the ship had been immaculately maintained. There had been added a number of additional decks, but in a way it blended so seamlessly with the original construction, one would never detect any difference. Returning to the ship's bridge, there came a knock at the hatch. You and Sam were standing there. you were both happy and care-free together, clearly living a life of deep harmony and joy. We embraced — a warm and loving embrace, nothing withheld. We were in this moment one. My vision ended. I awoke with a tremendous of optimism and confidence in you and Sam, and your future. That was my vision; it was of you. I'm so glad to have had this opportunity to share it with you. I wish you nothing but the very best, always.

It is possible that not all humans in the Milkyway evolved or originate on Earth, they just assume that they were brought everywhere by the Goa'uld.
It could be that the Goa'uld just encountered and enslaved humans on other planets.

>>83702484
In universe answer: The Goa'uld knew where Earth was in the galaxy. Several times they sent ships ''the long way''.

Earth's best chance to survive a practical invasion was to look for allies, information, and advanced technology through the stargate

I think you misunderstand the lore of Stargate.

The mythological characters we know in real life were actual aliens in the Stargate universe. Their god-like power was real technology or propaganda. Anubis wasn't pretending to be the Sun God the Egyptians already knew about, he WAS the Sun God that the Egyptians worshiped.

That's why Daniel Jackson always starts briefings on new Goa'uld by pulling up historical information about the 'mythological' character, that's literally ancient intelligence on them.

I ti s a pity that Annubis 'died'' before the Ori arc. i would love to see how they would fight.

>>83706584
yeah but weren't "the ancients" just basically humans who had had more time to develop? when the ancients "seeded life" they just sent their own dna or whatever here to develop again and then some of the "ancients" came in person to help out due to what you described. but they were just smarter humans who knew more.

>>83702833
It's pretty good, but the good stuff starts at season 4 iirc. The first few episodes have a lot of stupid shit in them but in the later seasons, the show has a lot of sense of humor.

>>83705925

>As established by the MALP and other two-way communication, energy can be transmitted both ways through a wormhole while matter can only go one way. A wormhole only stays open as long as there is something going through it, or enough energy is being directed through it,
They really have different attitudes with the extinction of the gate. Sometimes, the gates shuts off 1 seconds after the person goes through it, sometimes it takes more seconds.

>>83708134
The gate staying open is a bit weird sometimes, I'll admit. The only one it makes sense for is an outgoing wormhole from SGC because they control the power going to the gate and can cut it off at will. Outside of that, it's literally writer magic that determines how long it stays open.
Technically an off-world wormhole going to the SGC could be kept open by the SGC broadcasting a really strong radio signal through the gate to keep it from closing, but they never say if they do anything like that or not.

>>83708141
It's heavily implied, but yeah, they never expressly say that either.

>>83708224
Whoops, meant Ra but Anubis, for some reason, is the default Goa'uld in my mind.

That was explained, they put it down to a "rocky trip" due to stellar drift that was enough to fuck with the coordinates slightly but not cut the connection entirely. ie, just Abydos.

Once they updated the system with compensation for the stellar drift, the problem was solved.

Nah dude Stargate isn't pretending humans didn't evolve on Earth. But their DANA was influenced toward a form by the seeding the ancients did.

>>83708973

Just so you know, they rescue these guys in one of the novels.

They go there with the Daedalus and get them.

>>83706631
Nah they actually address that, the iris is too close to the surface for the Kawoosh to form. It happens in the show at least once too, the iris is shut and the gate lights up and is shown to be active but no kawoosh

>>83717224
You don't understand what seeding means. At least if the stargate is to be believed. Read the beginnings of the articles on humans, ancients and earth. There are humans on earth because the ancients planted their own "seed" in there.

They since left the planet, only to come back a second time which is the even you're referring to.
>Earth was the second planet that the Ancients colonized after they left their home galaxy (the first planet being Dakara).
>Several million years ago, an advanced race of humanoid beings (now referred to as the Ancients) abandoned their home galaxy for the Milky Way. Upon their arrival, they settled on Earth

>Before abandoning the Milky Way for the Pegasus galaxy to rebuild their great civilization, the Ancients enacted measures to reseed the galaxy with life. The Tau'ri are one species

>Over the tens of millions of years of their existence, the Ancients gradually evolved to become much more advanced than baseline humans
>and the neurological makeup of the Ancients was much more complex than that of the average human.

Humans had our own bit of evolution on earth, but humans on earth were made in the image of the ancients in the sg lore.

>>83702989
I always wished they did more with that race or whatever. The little bit the show explained was interesting.

I disagree. The premise was very good, the execution wasn't. Looking for the message at the beginning of time was a very good plot, what killed it was the bad drama. And the ship was fine, it's not like they had control over it and they sometimes needed to go to the planet for resources. They should have developed the aliens more, we barely saw any and got to know none.

>>83718654
>it's not like they had control over it
That's supposed to be a good thing?
Imagine SG-1 but the gate would just dial out randomly.
>and they sometimes needed to go to the planet for resources.
Oh wow they visit like 3 or so planets and nothing interesting happens. Great.

It's supposed to be an answer to this criticism:
