Uh, I didn't want to post any more on this, honest, but then I came across this followup article, and the last sentence made me laugh and laugh.

Mallozzi and co executive producer Paul Mullie will write the movie, Sci Fi and MGM said. Mallozzi also said he expected the entire Atlantis cast to be in the movie, plus “a certain gaunt and pallid flowing-locked guest star,” apparently referring to former cast member Amanda Tapping.

(The rest is just sciffi president Howe rambling on about fans being content with getting their "next fix of the Stargate franchise". Ah well.)

Ahem, sosorry... I'll get back to posting fanart ASAP.
(minor casting spoiler for the sga movie... does that count as casting spoiler? Do I need a cut for that?)

Re: pallid, 'gaunt' and flowing hair
That's definitely not Tapping.
Maybe Claudia Black, who is sometimes a bit too lean for my taste.

I watched 'The Shrine' on DVR -- *very* good.

It's a crying shame that the SGA writers couldn't have been producing more stories of that caliber.

It's also a shame that the writers almost certainly won't let Rodney mellow a little (some, not to much!) as the result of his experience -- IRL I don't see how such a thing couldn't, particularly that there are the tapes to see of himself. SGA would go right back to status quo ante.

Maybe McKay just needs a Paxil or Lexapro prescription ;)

Regarding SG-1, I think you will enjoy it, at least the first 3-4 seasons before it started getting more stale. Back then they did know how to do the occasional more character-driven ep and the Wr-- I mean Go'auld ;) storyline wasn't so tired. Somewhere around S5 IMO the characters got more 2D again with the writers less willing to rock the boat with them.

Nonono, the pallid guest star is Todd, our all favorite Wraith. (will answer to the rest later; still have 10 more drawings to color, preferably tonight...)
