[QUOTE]Originally posted by AndrewR: [QB] OK Finally gotten around to watching the last 5 episodes. What a let down. All of them were TOTALLY unnecessary. The Las Vegas ep - the ep on board the Wraith ship with the zombie-wraith, the keller-vala clone switcheroo, the finale - all of it. Ever since the ending of the Elizabeth Weir story line - it's like Atlantis limped home. Atlantis sorta lost it's way a while back. There were fantastic shows - but Atlantis became too... 'familiar' too quickly. I loved the 'isolation' of season 1. They were supposed to go to Pegasus to find new technology. There weren't many real 'discoveries' though. They sorta lost that. I reckon they should have had the wraith making a beach-head/foothold in the Milkyway galaxy. Who was the chick at the end who wanted to take Ronin for a walk? Was it the chick from the control centre on Atlantis? Too rushed. Too many missed opportunities. Atlantis and the Pegasus galaxy unfortunately feels all a little 'familiar' now. Atlantis needs to be taken back to Pegasus in my opinion. So that question still does remain - the chair was moved and destroyed - does that mean that the whole weapons platform is destroyed? Can't they just go and get a spare chair from a few of the places we've seen before that had chairs. Like in "The Lost City Parts 1 and 2" those couple of Ancient outposts SG1 visited that I think had chairs but no ZPMs or something. I think removing the ancient outpost from Antarctica is silly - as it's use is a protection for Earth - what better place to put it than Antarctica? Nice, touching tribute to Don S. Davis. Why do Pegasus gates superceed Milky Way gates? What WAS the real point of the previous 'switcheroo' episode - introducing that ancient device again. It does seem a little bit of a strange way to 'communicate' - and to me it was something that was way more ancient... than the ancients. Like REALLY old tech. I wish that's why they planted it in there - but I think it was just an excuse for some hijinks for Keller. I must say though, the effects are still topnotch. The scene with 'replaced Keller' walking out and looking over Atlantis with a puddle-jumper flying over head and the sun shining... seemless. It looked like it was the real thing... no discernable 'effects' going on in that shot - i.e. green-screening or whatever. Hopefully the straight-to-DVD movies will be good. [/QB][/QUOTE]
