No matter what I choose, no matter how much I buy, the ones I love will always be the ones who pay.

Is it sort of like Star Trek? I'm on medication now. I have condition called 'Hunteritise' which is when ever I see a Phoenix, I leap on it's back, rip its skull right out of its head and beat it to death with it!  |
| Dobberman Fleet Admiral Posts: 1998 Join Date: 29-12-2001 | Posted at 11:47 pm, 31st July 2004 Well it seems to be turning into it. It's set in the present day (or at least the not too distant future). A large ring with dozens of symbols (the Stargate) was found buried in Eygpt in the early 20th Century, it's an alien device that allows you to travel instantaniously to other planets that have a stargate. The US Airforce runs a secret operation in Cheyanne mountain (SGC) that sends teams of soldiers to the other planets exploring and searching for allies or technology that can help defend themselves against an alien race called the Goa'uld. The Goa'uld are snake like creatures that can take over someone's body and who enslave humans (that were taken by the Goa'uld to other worlds thousands of years ago in ancient eygpt) all over the galaxy. Basically most ancient gods were actually Goa'uld pretending to be gods using their technology, although some gods were actually other friendlier aliens. No matter what I choose, no matter how much I buy, the ones I love will always be the ones who pay.

I might see if I can find the 1st episode on VHS at my local Video Store. I'm on medication now. I have condition called 'Hunteritise' which is when ever I see a Phoenix, I leap on it's back, rip its skull right out of its head and beat it to death with it! |
| sporto78 Captain Posts: 1365 Join Date: 19-04-2002 | Posted at 4:02 pm, 2nd August 2004 You should watch the movie first. It came out in 1995 I think and it is the first thing that happens in the Stargate Universe.

| Locutus_of_Borg Lieutenant  Posts: 229 Join Date: 16-11-2003 | Posted at 12:59 am, 3rd August 2004 Yeah. The TV show is a spin off from the movie. Your defensive capabilities are no match for us. Your culture will adapt to service ours. Resistance is and always has been... Futile. |

You do need to see the movie, here in the States every so often Sci-Fi will show it, but I actually like the movie.
