Stargate!!

Couple nights ago my mama and I watched (for the millionth time) the original Stargate movie.

The one that started it all!

I never remember how dang good it is until I’m watching. It’s fun to see how dated the movie is and to compare the movie actors and characters with the tv series actors and characters.

When I’m talking about dated, I specifically mean the scenes where people are just smoking wherever.

That would not fly even ten years ago! But when the movie was made that was a thing. So a scene where almost everyone is smoking in a small room being briefed on the Stargate cartouche’s by Daniel Jackson?

Priceless!

Character differences are fun though not as expansive because the movie only had a little time to create these fully fleshed characters, whereas the series had season after season to give the characters time to develop in a more natural and realistic way.

I could go on but it’s late and I need sleep.

However! My mama has never watched past the first couple episodes of the series and so now she’s going to with me!!

YAS!!!!

Next time peeps!
