>it's another fucking goddamn incoming wormhole, sir
>>218972715Whelp, guess those random travellers are just gonna die then. Oh well.
>>218972910>Major, you WILL tell that planet about ESG and DEI, or i'll find someone who will
>>218972673Remember when these retards went to a planet and then realized the panel is clearly destroyed. US military.
>>218974410I'm actually watching season 2 now. The fact that they only send the malp about 5 feet past the gate is just retarded. They should be sending it all the way to the DHD to confirm that it's in working condition. Also in numerous instances when they show an incoming wormhole they have Earth's symbol be the 7th symbol locked, but that's supposed to be the point of origin. These retards can't even keep their own lore straight. Still a very entertaining show of course.
>>218974554im always bothered by how quickly or slowly the gate shuts off, depending on what's happening in the plot
>>218974554Their methods develop as it would in reality. At some point they start to launch UAVs through the gate.
>>218974554They gate technology never made too much sense.
>>218974943I like how they have random incoming wormhole and they open the iris just before people come in. A moment of hesitation and those people would be dead.
>>218972715This guy was basically a slave. He had to man the gate 24 hours a day. There was never anyone else on the shift even when they had unannounced wormhole
>>218974943You would keep the gate open as long as possible to maintain radio contact. SG teams should have 20 different guys, a security detail to guard the gate and a full complement of scientists to take samples of everything. And they'd be driving jeeps and atvs through, not walking.
>>218975245>This guy was basically a slave.Nonsense. He was a Master Sergeant that got promoted to Chief Master Sergeant for sitting on his butt and saying 'encoded' and 'locked'. What a great gig.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5D_zC0dS3pA
GOOLD?
>>218975028>it's a we pretend that star constellations are points in space scifi premise
Behold! The greatest character arc in all of Stargate!
>>218975539>And they'd be driving jeeps and atvs through, not walking.>be a peaceful alien race>the gate suddenly wooshes >6 ATVs pour out and start circling you
explain to me again why the Air Force is in charge of WALKING to other PLANETS?
>>218977223Vroom
>>218979003The navy was too busy to handle the Stargate program.
>>218979003One of the SG teams was muhreens
>>218979187we were robbed of Teal'c manning the GPMG as Jack drivers over the bodies of jaffa
>>218979003Explain why Space Force is under Department of Air Force.
>>218979003will it be the space force in the amazon reboot now that it's actually a thing?
>>218979545If the Army and Navy hadn't been so resistant to air power, this wouldn't have been a problem. Billy Mitchell had to break the restrictive rules in a test engagement to prove that air power was relevant to the old heads that only cared about naval bombardment and infantry operations. The only reason the Air Force came into existence was because of the hesitation of Navy and Army leaders not wanting to embrace the future.
>>218979187Needs more dakka
>>218974554>>218975539I wonder if a more grounded SG could work. Maybe as novels but for a TV series it could be a bit repetitive and boring.>reach a new planet>secure the gate>check for "natives">learn their language if they exist>get intel>lean the address to dial back to earth>(assuming you can dial back)>etcAlso yeah, lots of people and experts. Maybe it could make a cool as anthology series, jumping from team to team while the main plot slowly advances.
>>218975749
>>218982028it's kind of funny just how clumsy SG:1 as a unit is. In reality it would be some special forces support group going in to do months-long recon, then a special forces detachment like Delta going in with one or two CIA linguists to make contact
>>218982993The sensible thing would be to leave the MALP for at least a week to collect data and to bait out any potential hostiles. And tether a goat to it to see if there is any dangerous wildlife like the space bees that infected Teal'C.
>>2189726731-900 MIX ALOT
>>218983312>Frankly, the IOA is alarmed at the goat budget of this facility
>>218982993>>218983312Just greet, in modern English, the first alien you meet. Even if they're from other galaxy, it just works.
>>218985642except for fishman
>>218985864I'm positive he was autistic. Also probably some other aliens that I can't even remember.
Jaffa tongue my Chappa'ai
>>218972673>dial the based department
>>218976176I need a gif of him dancing off into the sunset from his tropical paradise
>>218979003A stargate is basically just a plane if you really think about it.
>>218974554there's a few problems yeah>the gates are prescient and know which gate the outgoing wormhole will connect to before the user is finished dialing.Can't be explained with a delay, that would conflict with the story line for at least a few episodes.Also desu the system the gates use as coordinates is fundamentally broken.
>>218985864what about the bodysnatcher crabpeople?
>>218992310>the system the gates use as coordinates is fundamentally brokenIt's dumb in the movie but in the series it's just a phone, it doesn't even try to make sense.
>>218992933It even adds an area code for dialing outside the galaxy.
>>218972673The dumbest part of Stargate SG1-SGA lore is that Earth composes of a major percentage of the human population due to alleged population control policies. The argument barely works for the worlds under Goauld domination, it falls apart everywhere else. Every other world would have a population of a few hundred million to over a billion even in a pre industrial farming state, specifically, a state in which phosphorus, nitrogen or potash are neither mined nor artificially produced.Even if the population can't go too high because of a lack of potatoes or rice or wheat, it could still go over 100 million.Less than 100 worlds to equal Earths population.And in the Pegasus, the Wraith have zero reason to even attempt to restrict human habitation and resource exploitation. The more the better. So even if the majority of worlds have zero modern industry, they would still be taming and exploiting the land to the tune of hundreds of millions to over a billion people per world right before a culling.Earth, by all accounts, should be a drop in the bucket.
>>218975539>>218977223That the Jaffa always just missed humans behind cover is one thing, it defies even the possibility of suspension of disbelieving of they miss those things.>but those episodes when they couldn't hit a MALP or a shitty ATV with a .50 on itYeah, SG1 jumped the shark and became really fucking stupid.
