I aim to increase the visual quality of this site by adding the highest quality images possible and updating old, small or grainy images. If anyone would like me to upload a specific image, just drop me a line on my talk page and let me know what episode it's in, if you can. Also check out my gallery for a few of the images I've worked on. Cheers. -Ka'lel

[edit] Stargate History

  • In the last few years, Stargate has replaced the likes of Star Trek, Quantum Leap and other shows as my favourite sci-fi show. However, had Firefly been on any station other than Fox, it most definitely would have survived more seasons to give Stargate a run for its money.
  • My story seems to be a common one among Stargate fans, in that I didn't start watching the series at the beginning. I became an SG-1 fan at the beginning of Season 4, sometime after "Window of Opportunity". At season 5, I was watching an episode a day in syndication. My fandom/fanaticism kicked into high gear and I watched SG-1 seasons 9 and 10, Atlantis seasons 1-4 and the (up-to-date-at-the-time) first 10 episodes of season 5, all within a few weeks time.
  • I'm sad to see Atlantis go, but look forward to the movie.
  • I'm loving SGU and hope it gets picked up for a second season.
  • I had Beau Bridges sign my copies of Continuum and Ark of Truth; it was an interesting experience.
  • I chose the username "Ka'lel" because of the obvious similarity to Superman/Clark Kent's birth-name.

[edit] Quotes

Stargate: SG-1

  • O'Neill: "We'll jump off that bridge when we come to it." -Questioning the effectiveness of a Kull disruptor. (Death Knell)
  • Vala: "I'm going to go crazy, and I'm taking you with me." -To Daniel, after learning she'll have to spend three months aboard the Odyssey. (Unending)
  • Teal'c: "False god. Dead false god." -About Apophis.
  • Bra'tac: "Hammond...of Texas." -along with the "you're bald" hand gesture. Gets me every time.

Stargate: Atlantis

  • Sheppard: "It's been a pleasure."
Ronon: "Same." -Trapped under rubble, ready to die fighting. (Search and Rescue)
  • McKay: "I'm Dr. Rodney McKay, alright? Difficult takes a few seconds; impossible, a few minutes." (Brain Storm)

Stargate: Universe

  • Greer: "Walk or die here! It's your choice, Mr. ... Decision Maker" (Air, Part 3)
  • Young: "A lot of work..." (regarding Rush)

Stargate Movies

  • Daniel: "Shit." -Left alone in the middle of the arctic with a frozen leg. (Stargate: Continuum)
  • Mitchell: "Oh give me a break." -Bloodied, beaten, exhausted and about to be completely surrounded by Replicators. (Stargate: Ark of Truth)

Out of Universe

  • Robert C. Cooper: (regarding his writing process) "I inevitably watch a lot of TV. Hey, it’s my job. The scene generally plays out like this:
My wife: You sure are watching a lot of TV.
Me: I’m working."
  • Joe Flanigan: (at the Atlantis wrap party) "In the equatorial regions, David's much larger than he was when we started the show. And he's got less hair."
  • Jason Momoa: (at the Atlantis wrap party) "I'm gonna miss playing him, he's a fun character for sure. But, also looking forward to...smiling instead of-and not beating people up."

[edit] Technology

Weapons

  • Ronon's "Traveler" gun - Even Teal'c wants one.
  • P-90 - standard issue awesome.
  • Zat - for the way it activates and the sound it makes when fired.
  • Asgard Beam - capable of destroying any other class ship so far.

Ships

  • F-302s - a great feat of reverse engineering.
  • Wraith Dart - for the look, the culling beam, and the sound it makes when it flies.
  • Odyssey - the most technologically advanced ship in the Tau'ri fleet, thanks to the Asgard.
  • Ori Mothership - the coolest looking ship in the Universe.
  • Daedalus - for repeatedly arriving in the nick of time.
  • Destiny
The Asgard Elevator.

Other

  • The Asgard Elevator - for lack of a better term. Puts the users in a protective bubble, cuts through seemingly anything, and floats through the air when recalled to the ship. Much cooler than beaming.
  • Lost Tribe Battle Suit - Armored, and a list of abilities that would make Inspector Gadget proud.
  • Kino

[edit] Least Favourites

The worst of the worst, first.

[edit] Episodes

  • Whispers - despite the return of Carson Beckett, this episode is like a terrible "B" horror movie.
  • Clip episodes in general. *Not specific to Stargate.


[edit] Characters

  • Peter Kavanagh - He blew up the Midway space station. Enough said.
  • Bug People - "Perfect animal" my ass. They're bulky, awkward, slow, stupid and apparently really easy to kill. Michael's worst invention.
  • "Zombies" from "Whispers" - Michael's first experiment, so it's understandably bad. They can't see and dispense mist from their gills? What was Michael thinking?
  • Bates - Doesn't trust anyone and insults Teyla on more than one occasion.
  • Robert Kinsey - The guy everyone loves to hate.

[edit] Technology

  • Wraith rifle - I'm probably not the only one who noticed they replaced this weapon in the series with the spear gun somewhere in season one or two. It just looks weird...like they're holding a Swordfish backwards and the stun blasts come out the back end.

More to come.
