[QUOTE]Originally posted by MinutiaeMan: [QB] Am I the only person who actually waited for the DVD to come out? Anyway, reactions... [QUOTE]Originally posted by Josh: - The bad guy was decent, but he was dispatched in a pretty underwhelming way.[/QUOTE]Are you kidding me? Baal's look of surprise as he stepped out of the Stargate and realized that Mitchell was waiting for him was absolutely classic. The perfect end to a villain, when he realizes that his master plan has failed. (Yet not ruined by a clichéd shout of "NOOOOOOOO!") There's one rather big plot hole: if Teal'c and Vala disappeared immediately — presumably because they were among Baal's biggest priorities, and would've been "recruited" first in his alternate timeline — then why didn't Mitchell also disappear, since he had never been born in the first place? (Yeah yeah, it would ruin the story...) Also, nobody mentioned Apophis getting killed once more for old time's sake! Overall, definitely a worty installment. To me, Stargate has never been about the groundbreaking, cutting-edge stories the way Galactica or Farscape have been. Stargate is good for solid, interesting, and entertaining stories. I think the biggest weakness of the story is that the four team members were broken up through a chunk of it... especially because there was no Teal'c with SG-1 most of the time. Of course, Teal'c makes up for it with his totally badass "JAFFA!" shout and blowing up Qetesh. So, maybe it wasn't as spectacular as the studio hyped it up to be, but I think it was still overall satisfying. ...Kinda like Baal's execution, I guess; some part of you might feel like saying "that's it?" but it's very satisfying nonetheless. ;) [/QB][/QUOTE]
