Out of the Blue [Apr 14, 2023, 11:43 am ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
We got very upsetting news from our friends who abandoned us for Oklahoma last year. Jedi the Jindo is not doing well. He recently started experiencing
seizures, and the experiments with medications to address this has so far been
quite unsuccessful. The latest is he is also now laboring with the effects of
overlapping medications, and it's at the point where it's possibly it for the
little fellow. I'm pretty wrecked as I write this. It's been a year
since we've seen each other, but Jedi and I are BFFs. The only thing worse than
thinking about losing him is thinking about him suffering, so here's hoping this
gets resolved soon. Any sort of good juju you want to throw out there for my
buddy is welcome.

That's horrible news about Jedi.
Seizures are never a good sign.

I was disappointed when they pulled the pull on Stargate Universe. I'm guessing they won't revisit that unfortunately. A Stargate series reboot would rest mostly on if they can get some good writing, I won't be holding my breath...

Amazon I beg you, do not ruin Stargate like you've ruined every other propery you've bought. Please, please, please don't ruin it!

The Florida Man of storms, more than 25 inches of rain drenching and flooding Fort Lauderdale in six to eight hours.
It ranked among the top three in major U.S. cities over a 24-hour period, behind Hilo, Hawaii's, 27 inches in 2000 and Port Arthur, Texas's 26.5 inches in 2017.

You've got my best vibes and juju headed Jedi's way, Blue. Poor dude.

I mean, it floods around rivers here... and my yard has "flooded". But my yard flooding means when it reaches a certain point, it flows into the street. For water to come into my home tens of square miles would have to flood first. I have always thought it simply couldn't happen... but 25" of rain in eight hours? I both would and wouldn't like to see that here...

There's no good reason to even reboot Stargate. Like Star Trek, the universe is big enough to keep telling stories in continuity. It's been more than a decade since Atlantis went off the air, so plenty of wiggle room there to change things up.
Bodolza wrote on Apr 14, 2023, 13:05:I agree with this. I would much rather see another series in the "Stargate universe" without undoing/redoing everything that has gone before. As I indicated before, as long as you get good writing it will work...

I hope they go woke as possible. Have Colonel O'Neill be a gay, black, trans woman fighting for social justice across the universe.
Oh, and all the villains have to be exclusively white, hetero men.
It would be a laugh just to watch the right wing nutjobs' heads explode as they froth at the mouth.

The US film industry is creatively bankrupt.

Fans tend to react negatively to big and many changes to their show. The discontent seems to generally be more about the changing away from the original, and less about the changing into something else, despite what the virtue signaling fucks think.
In short, if you think only right wing nutjobs have issues with changes of the scope you suggest, we suggest you go see a psychiatrist.
Fuck "fans". They're nearly as awful and toxic as rightwing nut jobs.

This post reads like virtue signaling.
If you care about the race or gender of Captain Whathisface in Stargate DSV, you have some deeper emotional issues to overcome.
Also,.of you reregister someplace that banned you after calling out the actual Captain...
