gelbes_gilatierthis is a kind of (belated) Christmas present for me:
“3) If the SGA movie is a go, would you still be involved as the writer and/or producer?”
Answer: I’m sorry to say but the cancellation puts the brakes on whatever progress the SGA movie had made in the past month, shelving it indefinitely.

Answer: See above. Contrary to what some may think, the cancellation of SGU is very bad news for those looking forward to an Atlantis movie.

I know that a lot of people on my flist were really looking forward to a Stargate Atlantis movie (and I do feel sorry for you because I know how it is to really, really want something and not get it) but damn, I wasn't. Especially after what Mallozzi said about how Atlantis fared since EATG (in his head, anyway... and only in his head, thank God), I just really, really, really hope that this will finally mean that they will let the franchise rest in peace and give it to the fans. Because, let's face it, we're the ones who actually know what to do with it and how to write it. This is hopefully it for the SGA movie.

Date: 2010-12-27 10:55 pm (UTC)Ich dachte immer die Star Trek Produzenten & Schreiber wären nach Roddenberry's Tod undankbar gewesen (und dank einiger Episoden von DS9 & VOY auch ein bisschen peinlich), aber Brad Wright ist ein eingebildeter(zu Unrecht), vollgefressener Haufen Scheisse, der Typ sollte sich & der Welt einen Gefallen tun und sich den Gnadenschuss geben. Der ist einfach nicht erwachsen geworden!
Aber wenn jemand anderes ein SGA-Movie schreiben & drehen würde, das wäre schon fein.

Aber das müsste dann schon jemand ganz, ganz anderes und unverbrauchtes sein.

Date: 2010-12-29 05:16 pm (UTC)Oh God, let's all pray that they don't. Mallozzi's head canon for what happened after EATG sucks, and big time at that. It's downright... no, I don't have words for how much it sucks.
That and they really better get Vala back in it.
I don't have much faith but I do keep up a tiny sliver of hope. Because, seriously, how can you not have Vala in an SG1 movie???

Date: 2010-12-29 07:52 pm (UTC)Really ? I didn't know I never made any research on the film atually , I was more for the SG-1 film anyway , but seriously what was his head canon ?
-Because, seriously, how can you not have Vala in an SG1 movie?
10000000% with you there. During the last seasons and the movies , Vala grew to be one of my favorite characters. And even if they don't give her a big role in the third movie I'll survive , I'm just really scared as to how they will excuse her absence. Knowing them they'll kill her off . I think there going to say something like she stayed with the Tok'ra after Continuum . Oh well , I still wonder what the hell make them take the decision of no Vala >.>

Date: 2010-12-28 06:34 am (UTC)So it is better, that they put their ideas to the grave and let the fate of Atlantis and its crew open as can be. It would be far, far better for us.
I have seen, that taking up the ends of a very good series would only result in a catastrophy. I still love "Babylon 5", but the following films became badder and badder and "Crusade" was really boring.
So I really love the fact, that there will be no "Atlantis Film" as you.

Date: 2010-12-29 05:20 pm (UTC)I absolutely agree. Season Five was by far the worst, even if people try to play it down. It just seemed like they'd lost all interest in Atlantis, way before the cancellation was announced and yes, I do feel bitter about the way it was handled.

Date: 2010-12-28 10:09 am (UTC)OMG! Isn't that exactly what you predicted them to say? o.o *lol*
I just hope that means there won't be a third SG-1 movie either. *is such an unfaithful fan* *sigh*

Date: 2010-12-28 11:21 am (UTC)Honestly, I couldn't care less. It's not that I'm not curious about how the whole Atlantis thing could develop, it's just that I don't think that Mallozzi and Wright would be the right people to actually do the movie. I really hope they'll find something very different to focus on so I'll never have to hear from them again.
no subject
Date: 2010-12-29 05:23 pm (UTC)I absolutely agree. Why the hell do they keep on ruining it if they don't even have a real interest in it anymore? Mallozzi said as much when he said something in the direction of "it was good while it lasted but now it got blasted" or something (not in that wording, but you get my meaning, right?) and I wish they'd just move on.

Rest in peace, Stargate. The agony has lasted long enough.

While I do like what I read of Jo Graham so far, I like the fact that it's not canon canon and everyone can see fit to it if they want to keep to it or go a different way. It's just one way of many of seeing Stargate, not the way (like a movie would be). So yeah... just another reason to be glad about it.
