Behind-the-scenes featurette from one of the most exciting on-location episodes, Stargate Atlantis’ Vegas! #stargate #stargateatlantis #joeflanigan #johnshepperd #wraith
I'd really want a Stargate revival. Stargate Atlantis was by far the best and I was disappointed when it ended after only five seasons. Please do a revival, reboot or something. There are many fans who want this. And I think many more form the generation afterwards would be fans.
The CSI-style elements elevated this episode into the stratosphere for me. It's one thing to subtly pay homage to another current popular series, but to fundamentally incorporate their cinematic style into your show can easily come off as cheesy if not done properly. SG-A pulled this off beautifully and it is fully appreciated by this fan of both shows. THANK YOU for this!
This was one of the best episodes of the series, too. Joe was amazing in the role, and you really felt the pain he felt in his backstory, too. And the use of Solitary Man was just genius, and perfect for John, too.
This is, honest to god, my favorite episode of Atlantis. I love all of it, but this? It's the one I come back to the most. I watch it on its own, and it's just, so fantastic.
I really enjoyed this episode. Even though he wasn't a part of the Atlantis team we still got to see John doing the right thing after wavering a little. It suited his alternate character because the character looked jaded to me.
I just saw this today as a rerun down here in Panama. One of my favorite episodes, the kind I sit down and watch carefully for the fifth time! Getting the backstory is definitely icing on the cake. Now all we need is a new "cake"!
Bob Adams I wonder if McKay was the same McKay we saw who appeared in that device our McKay made in Atlantis that the ancients starts but couldn’t complete due to the war with the he wrath that one time in Atlantis in that one episode.
I always hoped Stargate would be revived. I find it highly disappointing that all these attempts have stalled or died. Of course, It needs to appeal to a new generation of fans that insist on hard science and quality effects.
But that's just it, they did make the technobabble work, and enough of it was based in real science that SG1 paved the way for future pseudo-realistic science fiction.
@@ncc74656m Yep im just saying it could be a little bit better and an Expanse like way. The gunfights were kinda cheesy and what not the CGI was good to decent.
I found it disapointing that in this episode, the A-10's GAU-8 30mm cannon sounded like a generic machine gun, and not the BRRRRTTT that we all know and love
John Sheppard was a seriously bad dude in the Las Vegas episode. Rodney McKay showed some strength there too. Very impressive episode. This is a good coverage of that production. That Wraith almost looked human. If he learned some people skills he would have fit right in. An immortal being. With mind control and super strength. The Earth would have needed Superman and the Flash to take this guy on. I miss Todd. He was a good guy and had human traits. For all we know Todd is keeping the Wraith away from Earth at this very minute~! Stargate Command, you are not closing down are you? That will be a sad time. I missed you guys for awhile. Packing and moving. Life goes on in this Galaxy and this node of the multi-verse.
Bring back Atlantis and Universe! It makes me sick watching them knowing that you never properly ended them. P.S. NO STARGATE REBOOTS!!!!!!!!! Undoing a beloved series consisting of 17 seasons and 3 movies would be a huge sign of disrespect. There are plenty of stories that can be told without lazily retelling existing ones or pretending they don't exist. The Star Trek reboot didn't go over well with fans and the fans are required in order to make franchises like these to be successful beyond their first showing.
I want to know when the writers are going to finish ROTA,,,RETURN OF THE ANCIENTS,,picked up right after Atlantis returns to earth and landed in sanfransico bay,,
I saw everything about stargate haha and i really think Stargate Atlantis was the best of stargate. Please do something about the continue the show or make reboot. Only 5 season? Deserve more. Even now, years after the show ends , miss to DR MACY AND DR WAIR AND JOHN .
STARGATE is just waiting for that one right story that will drive people crazy until it's made. Something that shakes people up for days after they see it. Something analagous to THE TWO TOWERS, THE MATRIX, THE LAST WAVE.... A tense, psychological thriller like Marathon Man?What would Stanley Kubrick, Rod Serling or David Lynch do? GATE always had a comedic streak in it, but this should leave old fans and newcomers shaken. UNIVERSE was dark, but got too "tricked out" too soon. Was the big cosmological Truth ever supposed to be understood for humans?
Soooo...you went to BC to film something that looked like the desert outside Vegas...then you went to Vegas to film Vegas. No-one ever suggested that you should just do it all in Vegas?
