About 3 years ago, I watched the stargate movie and really loved it. I immediately tried to watch sg1 but had a really hard time due to the characters being recast with actors who are significantly different than their movie counterparts.
Well, I guess enough time has passed and I got through the first 3ish episodes and have been hooked since then.
Thanks! My wife and I will watch Atlantis together one I finish sg1. She is a trekkie and is vaguely interested and when we saw mamoa was in it, I think she was sold.
It might be worth watching them together. There are a few SG-1 and Atlantis crossover episodes, and the stories affect both series, rather than being one off gimmicks
I love sg1. I think I first got hooked on Atlantis and eventually properly picked sg1 later since I only knew it from watching some random eps passively on tv I think.
I freaking love it. It's one of my favorite shows. The mythology and character development over so many seasons is amazing and exactly what I want from a story, specially for long running ones.
You are in for an amazing trip, since the first episodes are usually the weakest when a new show starts until the characters and the actors are properly in sync and comfortable with each other.
I've only watched it 2 or 3 times. I should probably plan a new rewatch.
The Stargate series literally have the best tool for storytelling: The Stargate itself. You can literally tell any story you want, because anything could literally be on other end of the wormhole.
I don’t understand why we haven’t gotten any proper Stargate games yet…
I tecommend not being too worried if you do see a spoiler about the show because it is done vey well overall and the way the episodes play out tends to be far more important than any twists or reveals.
