This is a discussion thread of the glorious epic masterpiece film by Roland Emmerich. I personally like it better than the show; although I'm an SG-1 fan, like many hardcore fans of the film, I refuse to accept SG-1 as a continuation of the film. There are just too many inconsistancies, and SG-1 cannot equal the masterpiece film. Don't get me wrong, I do like SG-1, but I just like the movie much better.

Doesn't really seem to be a popular subject...but that's understandable. Not too many people can really appreciate the glorious film. I guess the show's more on their level... lol j/k

I really enjoyed the stargate film when it came out, and I remember when SG1 started I was a bit disappointed in it, the change in actors I think is what I didn't like. But over the years I've got use to them, and they've grown and changed the characters.
But I still love the film, only have it on video and as my VCR machine is so old I'm worried it will get chewed up!!
I've seen the directors cut out for sale, what is the difference between that and the original?

Well, there's the director's cut, and then there's the Ultimate Edition. The Ultimate Edition has the deleted scenes in it, but not in the special features. The deleted scenes are actually IN the film, which is cool. I greatly enjoy it...it feels more complete, and the film draws you in even more than the original version. Also, the colors are greatly improved; it looks fantastic.
As for the show...there are so many inconsistances between the glorious epic masterpiece film and the dumb show that it's not even funny. Many fans of the MOVIE do not consider the show to be a continuation of the movie. I myself agree, and only regard the show as an alternate reality. The show should be molded to fit the film, not have fans of the show go back and try to pervert and dumb-down the film to fit the show.

I guess there are those who like the movie more and those who prefer SG1 more. I think if there was a choice between just have the film or the film and a sometimes inconsistent TV show to continue the story, I'd go for the latter. The more sci-fi shows on TV the better especially if they are good!  |
