The new Stargate movie

I checked-out that movie a bit in online movie site.. but it's not my taste. I used to like sci-fi movie, superhero movie and etc but not that one. anyway, you can check-out those online movie sites.. what I used to do is that I used to watch from online movie if I'm not sure whether I like it or not. If I really like it and wanna get the movie experience then I go to theater.. :)

Thanks and Regards, Michael Sync ( Blog: http://michaelsync.net)

Since when is programming perceived as 'cool' by the general opinion? I would say quite the opposite. Anyway, just by having a signature like that you sound geek rather than cool. Sorry...

I saw the movie 2 weeks ago. It is a solid and entertaining movie although I normally hate the time-travel thing.

I still don't like the implicaitons of the false branch.

They film it just across the water from here. I've always found it too "Canadian" for my tastes. Of all the current sci fi-ish tv programs filmed in Vancouver I think JPod is probably the best.

Wow, that's always been my all time favorite theme in Sci Fi novels. Movies though generally treat it very badly as a subject.

And this subthread seems to bear out what I've noticed on bbs systems many years ago, then on usenet, and now in discussion forums like this one --> when your sig is larger (by far) than the main content of your post, it becomes the focus of the message post. :doh: BTW, I enjoyed the SG movie with Kurt Russell, but the television series did nothing for me.

Love Stargate, especially the fragrant Amanda Tapping! Essex Girl I believe, so like Star Trek TNG, Essex Girls get about a bit.(I am pretty sure Councillor Troi comes from Essex too!) I am waiting to see Continuum, and, sadly, have every episode on DVD. (I also have near 700 episodes of Doctor Who too, God, somebody, get me a life! :) )

Shouldn't that be: "you're.Cool" ;)

All of them: original movie, SG-1, Atlantis are my favorites. I'm a fan of Stargate, INDEED. And i'm still wondering what's the really mean of the words:'Jafa Kuri'.:confused:

I've always enjoyed Stargate but I think it jumped the shark a while back. Atlantis is okay but it's getting to be a home for retired SG1ers. And let's face it, without the humour of O'Neill, it isn't really the same. Still watch the reruns nearly every night on Sky when I get home: how sad is that? :-)

I'm with you. The movie was entertaining but the TV series feels cheap.

I liked the original movie but the series left me cold.

Still too simplistic. I favor:

var weights = {coding: 2.0, tech: 1.3, food: 2.0, stargate: 0.5};
var threshold = 4.0;
var aggInterests = 0.0;
for each (var interest in interests)
{
aggInterests += weights[interest]||1.0;
}

if ( aggInterests >= threshold )
{
You may be worth talking to
}
else
{
You are dull
}

I've never seen the movie, but based on your profile photo, it must be a very long movie. :-D

Well said. I can't bear the ones who think programming/technology is everything and look down upon the people who aren't in tech.
