Hey everyone, heres Stargate!! I don't really have too much to throw in here other than it was a sci-fi film with a great plot and had some pretty cool creative characteristics to it! I loved the choice of actors and honestly miss 90s films so this was fun to watch. :) let me know what you guys think down below in the comments!!

Stargate wasn't _just_ an "Ancient Aliens Movie", Stargate was *THE* "Ancient Aliens Movie". Also Kudos for choosing the directors cut as your first viewing, it is effing amazing.
For 1994, those graphics were legitimately impressive.
Heck yeah I was really impressed in the theater, but also like “that defies physics.”
I still think that after all these years the cgi holds up. It's nor right in your face and it looks beautiful. The idea that a mask can "transform" like this. I was in awe the first time i saw this. And i'm still in love with this effect =)
For 1994? It’s still impressive in 2022.
The Stargate effects and the masks of the Jaffa were amazing...my jaw dropped when i first saw those things... i also really liked the goa uld speech...
@@neddhu they went a little bit further than "jaffa Cree" 😝😜
As for "Why would you put the gun under his pillow" O'Neil was thinking about shooting himself in his son's room. He was hiding the gun from whoever was at the door, not storing the gun in his son's room.
O'Neill! Two L's! 🤣
@@fenner1986 In the show, it's two "L"s, in the movie, it's one "L".
@@fenner1986 He should know...he is Kurt, after all.
@@fenner1986 There's another O'Neil - Kinda serious, he doesn't have a sense of humor
Its quite obvious that's what he was doing and its an important moment to understand where O'Niell is personally in his heart and mind. Got be honest I don't think Vkunia was giving this film as much of a try or her attention as she has with others.
Good movie that launched one of the best sci fi series ever, Stargate SG-1! Highly recommend checking out the series when and if you have the time, great cast with amazing chemistry, not to mention great writers, and creators who actually wanted the show to be as scientifically accurate as possible, despite the whole premise of the show being based entirely on theoretical physics.
Not to mention Atlantis (with Jason Momoa) and Universe.
@@3DJapan Hell ya, they were all good, I was sad that there wasn't any more Universe though
Gotta love how they poked fun at themselves in several episodes too, with Wormhole X-TREME and that 200th episode mashup lol
"It's..... what I do" is still my favorite catchphrase
Sg1 out Star Treked Star Trek. The episodic exploration of space and cultures was a lot of fun.
@@lordmortarius538 The tongue and cheek, self aware humor is what makes the show so endearing.
"They can't just open the Stargate randomly so they can come back?"
I don't think it's even mentioned in this film, but the portal flows one way. They have to open it from their side to get back. That's how it works in the rest of the franchise, anyway.
yes it's mentioned, 6.28, saying someone would have to dial back home, implication is dial a one way trip.
@@BK45AUS Dial every last symbol possibility, toss in it's symbol... then wait for earth to open it up again and toss the right one back? Brute force problem solving.
They definitely do a way better job explaining it in the TV Series… the first 6 characters establish position of the destination using X, Y, Z coordinates and the 7th symbol is the planet of origin…
@@jayeisenhardt1337 except you never know where any successful combinations are going, kinda the premise of the series.
@@BK45AUS also explained in SG1.
Likely didn't have the same affect for you watching it, but watching this when it first came out in 1994 it was mind-blowing, not just visually, but not many other Scifi movies of the time delved this deep into the story and such.
I saw it three times in the theater. I think most people today don’t realize this was the first film to explore the idea of ancient aliens, outside of the old chariots of the gods doc. But for teenage me back then, it was my first exposure to the idea and I was already fascinated by ancient Egypt and aliens and loved sci-fi, so it was a perfect storm of a film for me. Then the series a few years later, excellent.
I saw this movie in 1994 in Birmingham with my older sister. I was 15 at the time, one of the most precious moments of my life. My sister died 2 years ago from cancer. Everytime I see this movie, I will remember how much she looked after me. There's no words to describe how much I miss her. Sorry for sounding depressing, loved your reaction.
Me too!
Except Portsmouth not Birmingham.
My wife died of heart failure in 2007, she was 23.
I retired from the Air Force in 2019. Stargate SG-1 was definitely the show to watch (we always had it playing in our ready room on 1st Friday). Just reading the comments, I think a lot of us would love to see you enjoy SG-1 too.
did you know, At the Air Force Association's 57th Annual Air Force Anniversary Dinner in Washington, D.C., on September 14, 2004, then-Air Force Chief-of-Staff General John P. Jumper presented Anderson with an award for his role as star and executive producer of Stargate SG-1, a series which portrayed the Air Force in a positive light from its premiere. Anderson was also made an honorary Air Force brigadier general.
is listed on wikipedia.
I ask literally anyone i ever meet who ever served in the air force about the stargate program. Recently, it was a new manager at my job. Y'all always play along and it GIVES ME LIFE. 😍😭 SG-1 has always been so obscure, so finding an entire community of randos who know of it always made me very happy. For the last few years, the show has been on the top 10 trending list on Netflix and that also has been gratifying. Lol
@@beetlebob4675 Stargate on Netflix? Not in my country. In Germany only Amazon and Google have it, but you have to pay for each episode or season. So watching all episodes would cost hundreds of Euros.
Definitely I would. It seems like Stargate is slowly becoming a little more popular these days and I'm loving every second of it, been watching and rewatching it since early 2000s and never had other people to talk to about it
yes it was awesome!
My dad and I bonded over this film and the TV series that spun off of this movie.
I love this movie
Also, most everyone thinks the romance is forced
Oh yes me and my dad are the same way. We both remember a lot of the episodes quite clearly to this day both for the humour, science and emotional moments. Great memories and will definitely continue to watch into the future.
One of the most remarkable things for me about the movie: A budget of 55 million dollar.
In words: FIFTY FIVE!
This movie is , to me, the best proof, that you don't need a gigantic budget for a good movie.
Just a good script, cast and a dedicated director.
98.67 million adjusted for inflation. Still a decent chunk of change.
I agree with you though.
Problem nowadays is studios won't greenlight movies or projects that have original ideas, they'd rather play it safe w/ formulaic predictable movies.
"1994... I'll try to let it slide". I'm sure the multi million dollar production team appreciates you, a RUclips reactor, letting them slide on this one.
It's a joke fool , calm down.
Right? Back it down 😂
Stargate is such a good film. It's an action adventure film with a heart of gold, while being just a bit wonky and off-kilter. Not only does it contain a redemption arc, but the nerds triumph in the end.
Also, the payoff where Ra dies like Wile E. Coyote with that "it was at this moment he knew he fucked up" face is worth the price of admission.
Hey. I've been wondering where you are. I hope you are well. I still remember your live-stream conversation with Sargon. It is one of my all-time favorites. SJW 9000 ... Flame on.
As someone said already.... follow up tv shows are very good. Especially SG-1, and later on Atlantis. They continue story and brought some characters back (with new actors). Worth to watch.
Both SG-1 and Atlantis are very re-watchable :D
Agreed. RDA and Shanks played very good follow-ons for Russell and Spader. I even like Corin Nemec later in the series. It's definitely way too much content for a channel like this though. I think the only original actors to return were Kawalsky and the old lady. I love the expansion to non-egyptian mythology as well.
The Showtime season's are are bit dated, but once it hits its stride the series just keeps getting better. And Atlantis starts strong and never stops.
But yeah, reacting to it would be a longtime commitment.
Atlantis was were they found Jason Momoa for GoT isn't it? 🤔🤔
@@MandoWookie that would be deffently, average episodes per season off SG1 is 22, and that 10 seasons long.
if you watch on average 1 season a day, you talk about 42 min per episode including intro and credits is 924 min of watch time on 22 episodes, that x 10 is in total 9,240 min watch time.
i know got al 10 seasons on my extern hard drive, and watch them all in 1 go took me in total whole week to watch it with no sleep.
Daniel definitely takes “mail order bride” to a whole new level.
In the 90s there was no "ancient aliens" memes 😆 so the plot felt very original and unique!
The unexplained or exceptions that science ignores... It's always either magic or aliens sometimes both magic aliens. Like the the og Florida man Ed Leeskalnin.
@@jayeisenhardt1337 Yep fellow Atheist 🤝
There was Däniken...
There were no memes.
@JamesNeave1978 There were some local communities memes within forums and some manged to spill over to other communities but yea proper memes were quite rare
Edit: And it was pretty much a nerds-only phenomenon
Whoa… was not expecting this! Great movie, even greater TV Series
So glad you've watched this as it lead on to a absolutely massive franchise so freaking good.
David Arnold's score for this film is incredible. Really wish he'd go back to composing for big-budget Hollywood movies.
If you love mythology mixed in with science fiction, Stargate SG1 is your show. Great writing that’s more or less grounded with actual scientific theory (most of the time), episodes that build on one another throughout the series, all brought together by a phenomenal cast of characters whose growth and interactions really make this the best science fiction series in my opinion.
Shal'kek nem'ron!
@@oaf-77 Indeed.
@@robertchurch5646 Has anyone ever pointed out you say that a lot? :P :)
@@Noisemarine Really, I have not noticed.
I'm sorry but I have to disagree with you.
In the earlier series, it's like they only did 1 episode at a time,
There are numerous episodes that should have had a follow on, like the Crystal Skull episode.
Later on there was some follow on episodes to some previous ones, but nothing really that shows a multi-dimensional story.
I did like most of SG1 but to me it was pretty one tracked, and so when the Gou'ld were finally defeated, all they did was introduce yet another all powerful enemy.......
No follow on post Gou'ld life etc, with somewhat equal or not too far advanced races for us to encounter.
For me the only next step that they could have taken after SG1 would have infringed on Star Trek
That is the use space ships to explore worlds that we were "unable to dial" using the Gate.
10:40 and 26:15 - I don't seem to remember the Empire factoring into this movie. LOL
But seriously, I love this movie and all of the TV shows that came after it. It will take some time to get thru the 17 seasons combined of the shows, but it's so worth it.
Classic movie that launched some of the best Scifi TV shows ever made. Glad to see it got another fan.
I was 14 and all into ancient aliens (my dad was a Von Däniken nerd) and we just did egyptology in history class when this came out. It really hit the spot. Even though I've since grown out of both, it will have a place in my heart.
I heard Paul W S Anderson (I think) made AvP with Von Daniken in mind. Wonder if he ever directed an episode or a special of SG-1...
I have never seen anyone react to this, one of my favorite movies! It was such a sleeper hit when it came out in 1994 and really popularized the "ancient alien" pop culture trend. The TV series SG1 is also fantastic! It took some getting used to as at first it seemed so different in many ways, but the spirit of Stargate lived on, and did an amazing job at it!
I know it’s already been said but I concur that the tv series SG-1 is amazing and well worth a watch. Just love the team!
yes - it's worth repeating. But, in my opinion, tho SGate was excelent, Atlantis had a better range of characters (with Rodney being the cherry on top) and better stories.
Just started watching, but if you enjoy it there were a few series following in the storyline. Stargate SG-1 was especially good.
Even if you don't react to it, I'd recommend watching.
@@Krex_YT Stargate Atlantis also was very good.
@@rvelezbarreda Agreed. I just named SG-1 since it's more or less a follow-up to the movie, but I enjoy Atlantis as well and guessed that if she liked SG-1, she'd probably move onto Atlantis naturally. I just never got into SGU except for a couple episodes.
@@Krex_YT SGU it's slower than the others, very different, there's not as much action, I watched it all, but I didn't like it that much, and neither did the audience since it only had two seasons
@@Krex_YT Anyway, SG-1 alone has 214 episodes, spread over 10 seasons, and 2 movies. There are too many episodes for a reaction channel, to see everything would take almost an entire year, dedicated exclusively to the series.
LMAO when someone thinks that a critically acclaimed movie that spawned a number of equally acclaimed hit shows is "surprisingly good" xD
"The love aspect is a bit forced." - welcome to all movies from the 80s and 90s
I saw this in the theatre growing up. It was one of (if not the) first movies with Dolby surround sound :)
When the ship lands on the pyramid the ENTIRE theatre shook. :) It was awesome! :)
Can't wait to see V's reaction!! :D
wrong first movie with it was Stanley Kubricks film A Clockwork Orange (1971), look it up wikipedia, and dolby digital with batman retuns 1992.
stargate came out in 1994, therefor dolby surround sound excisted allready several years, arround 1995 DVD did makes its upcomming with it.
I love this movie! and a few fun things to know.. For the movie, the indigenous people are actually speaking ancient Egyptian ( the linguist hired for the film practically insisted on it). Also during filming this movie, Roland Emmerich came up with the idea of Independence day.
I feel pretty much the same about the movie, like it, don't love it. But the series is perhaps my favorite TV show ever. If you start posting videos of StarGate SG-1 reactions, I'll be here for every last one of them. :D
your "send more probes" comment cracked me up! I open the Stargate every year (in September) and watch the series every other year. the director Roland Emmerich also did "Independence Day" and "The Patriot"
When Ego and Ultron decided to team up in a previous life.
I watched this 6 years ago, and got hooked, and then got hooked on watching the series’s that followed.
I always wished we'd seen more cats among the aliens in the follow-up shows to this movie. It always appealed to me that creatures with the mindset of the aliens like Ra would be inclined to enjoy the company of cats more than other animals.
"Will you be okay?"
"Yeah, I think I will."
Setting off a nuke better than therapy confirmed.
‘You went to an alien planet, now you get probed in the Anubis… I mean by Anubis’
This is the only role of James Spader’s that he doesn’t creep me out!
James Spader. Thats his name. I can never remember his name. Though Daniel Jacksok for me will always be Michael Shanks.
YES! this is one movie that i hardly see people reacting to. I love this movie and the series that were developed from it. you have no idea the doorway you are gonna step through if you watch the series!
As many have already commented, This movie kicked off a franchise that came close to mimicking Star Trek. The Original TV series was Stargate SG1, which lasted 10 seasons and almost maintained the same cast for all 10 seasons. Then there were two spin-off series and several other movies that came out of SG1. The first spin-off was Stargate Atlantis, which I thought was pretty good, it lasted 5 seasons and then there was Stargate Universe, which I never really got into. It only lasted 2 seasons
Everyone saying "watch Stargate SG-1" is right! The show is a canon continuation of The Movie that carries the spirit through all ten seasons. Unlike other shows simply based on movies, SG-1 doesn't cut its roots after the first few seasons. It feels like a natural progression from the adventure in The Movie, which becomes the tip of the iceberg or pyramid, if you will. Watch the first episode and you see what we mean.
This was the first of the Roland Emmerich - Dean Devlin trio of movies to be scored by David Arnold. Next was Independence Day, and then Godzilla.
Such a great composer. Kurt Russell's hair is full-on J.J. Jameson. "I would have put a coffee mug on top of it" 😂
Being in the military, I was thinking more of Guile.
I thought the love story in this was perfect. One of the highlights of the movie. She is brave, smart and really hot. And she had a story arc...from shy to brave...from follower to leader (telling the younger boys what was going on). It was a very good sub plot.
LOVE the Death Star in the background when the pyramid exploded!!!
That’s no moon, it’s a space station
One of the greatest sci-fi movies ever made that led to one of the greatest TV shows ever made. When I first saw the commercials for this movie, I was like "This is going to be crap." But I went to see it anyway because I was just really getting into movies at that time, and I was BLOWN AWAY by the unexpected storyline. Loved it! I was so happy when they made a TV series that was actually BETTER than the movie.
"1994, I'll let it slide." Was she bitten by a 1994 once, or something?
I enjoyed the film and your reactions. It's hard to make a technology realistic when it doesn't exist but the film makers did a good job. The one thing that irked me were the airmen assigned to go thru the Gate with O'neill and Jackson. They were supposed to be highly trained special ops people but they acted like a bunch of dumb grunts, even Major Kowalski. Good job young lady.
Sam Todd,you're quite correct right about the behavior of the special ops guys,those guys are wayyyy more professional than that,I've seen them in action in Iraq.GOOD JOES.We'd chat with them when they'd come thru our checkpoints in Iraq.I didn't like how they were protrayed either.
Aye, unfortunately they fell into the post Vietnam stereotypical Hollywood portrayal of ‘The Jarhead soldiers”, big dumb and looking to blow things up.
I’m so happy for your success on RUclips! Can’t believe you’re almost at 100K lol. You’re such a gem. Cheers from St. Louis, Missouri 🍻.
"You Can't Even Communicate With Them"
He's actually still learning how to communicate with them
Stargate, was a good movie I also enjoyed the T.V series too.
good film, led to several great series
What’s cool about the scene where Daniel is learning their language from the cave paintings is that we don’t precisely know how Ancient Egyptian sounded because they only wrote down consonants. While it’s possible to guess at the vowels based on languages descended from Ancient Egyptian, the guesses could be wrong thanks to linguistic drift.
So he’s saying what he thinks the word sounds like, and Sha’uri is correcting him with a different pronunciation (but same basic consonants). Once he has a firm grasp on the vowels, he’s able to communicate freely
"It's like a water pool thing" Yep, and I think why the star ships designed to be sent through the Star Gates are called "Puddlejumpers"
Re: the love story subplot
They probably felt there needed a little extra incentive for Daniel to remain, not sure if they'd planned follow up films for this one, but it does work out quite well for the series.
Hollywood movies need love story subplot to be "complete". Because who doesn't like love ? It is an easy theme which everyone can connect to it. But usually those plots feel forced and un-natural
Now I'm hoping you watch SG-1 and Atlantis, both of which follow on from this movie in a "broad strokes" kind of way.
Hey V! Shout out from your favorite US Marine! I just want to say congratulations on 00:26 100K. And I can't wait until you get to 250K soon! Great reaction as usual! This was a go to movie for me when I was a kid like Predator! I've loved sci-fi since I was born! Love watching you and keep up the great reactions! ❤🤍💙💛
22:40 30 years ago this was a well earned movie relationship. 😁
Thank you SO much for bringing more Stargate reactions for us here on RUclips! 💕
Please be the first woman on RUclips to react to the entire series! You will 100% really, really like it! 👌😮
If you are afraid of the amount of episodes, you could do longer videos and include like 3 episodes, that works for other creators for different shows. 😊
Literally THE best Sci-Fi series.
I'm also dying for more Stargate reactions, this show is criminally underrated.
@@arayaslayer666 failwhale34 and
Cult TV Sofa are two that have some, sadly there is no channel that has all Stargate content done already. 😢
@@Dene181 hey thanks for the heads up, imma check those out. That is pretty tragic it's not fully reacted to yet.
I think the Colonel was contemplating suicide while holding the gun that killed his son. If those officers didn’t come in and give him a purpose…
24:36 "This is ha- heh heh- This is so tense."
That's the effect of the ticking clock. That's the effect of a ticking clock in _most_ thrillers. The good guys are pushing/fighting for something, the bad guys are trying to _stop_ 'em, and if the good guys don't successfully pull it off within a clearly-delineated _time_ limit, disaster happens and everybody dies.
"IN THE MIDDLE OF MY BACK-SWING?!"
You should seriously consider watching the SG1 series and sharing some of your favourite episodes.
A good introduction to a great series
Also if you get into the series and spin-off Atlantis. Atlantis has someone that is in a lot of things, I consider it his first role. Jason Momoa.(GOT, Aquaman)
The special edition has some added scenes that help explain things more
"No one should ever have to outlive their own child."
Universal wisdom, right there. I mean, under _normal_ circumstances, tragedy can be _minimized,_ but not _eliminated._ Under _normal_ circumstances, one outlives one's _grandparents,_ and one's _parents._ That's tragic, but it's part of the natural _order_ of things. It's a unique _kind_ of tragedy, though, when one outlives one's own _children._ There, something's gone wrong; _personally_ wrong.
Man, you were good with this one. Each guess, right on the nose. The sand storm, where the people came from, what the basic plot was. Nicely done.
She kept calling the Aliens "normal people" lol how is that on the nose?
Yeah, what a genius, she guessed the term “star gate” during the movie Stargate.
They left out the part about the gun Being O'neill's own service weapon. Also V, I don't actually think putting it under the pillow was a conscious, pre-planned idea; more like a convenient hiding spot from them seeing him with it. Just my thoughts on it, though.
It’s not just your thoughts on it, it is what happened, rather obviously.
@@tempsitch5632 Yeah, I thought so too, I just didn't want to come off sounding like a know-it-all. LoL. Many have told me my comments present that way even when I have no intention of being condescending. They read them like that and give newbie for their own perceptions.
@@patrickcromwell7554 You’re better than I. These kids are just dumb.
"1994 I'll let it slide" Hey it's not our fault you're so young! 😆
Okay, now that you've seen the first movie, it's now time to start watching the follow-up show. All 17 seasons and 2 movies. Trust me, it gets better.
VKunia: "I wonder how the son shot himself story will come back...He freaked out when he touched the gun because he knew he would shoot himself"
I've watched this movie since 1994 and I never even stopped to consider that part of O'Neil's freakout when the kid was reaching for the gun was related to the trauma of his son's death! VKunia sometimes has some amazing insights when watching these movies.
It may be a stupid action-sci-fi movie, but it still has some genuine character.
She's a smart cookie.
I’m embarrassed for you.
@@tempsitch5632 Oh? Care to expound?
@@wfly81 Not really. Is it that hard to understand ?
Stargate SG-1 was a fantastic series based on this movie, highly recommend. I loved this movie and was glad I saw it in the theater :) Love your reactions :)
true, infact very first episode starts where the movie ended, but 1 year later when colonel O'neill trew box off tissue true the gate where daniel was staying.
With these four words, the greatest adventure of a lifetime came along," I got an idea!"
"Or at least throw some pencils in... see if someone throws them back." That has to be one of the best comments any reactor has ever uttered.
The TV show that followed (Stargate SG-1) remains one of my favorite Sci-fi shows to this day, hope we get to see you react to some (or better yet: all) of those episodes :)
I think you would enjoy the pilot episode of the TV series called Children of the Gods, it's a nice conclusion to the movie.
"oh ehi that's a old lady's necklace that she stole, give that back!" that phrase killed me xD
"Or at least throw some pencils in... see if anybody throws it back." Can't. The wormholes are unidirectional, based on the originating gate. They'd have to terminate the connection, then initiate a new wormhole from the destination gate in order to throw the pencils back. (OK, that was some excessive nerding from the subsequent series)
Love this show and I wish they would make a new series.
rumors are going arround thats in the planning, they made allready mini serie stargate origins, in time era of early start from WW2
Stargate is amazing. I hope a new series comes soon now that Amazon owns it!
there are rumors about it, that they are thinking off it, with original creators from SG1 and atlantis.
Ugh Amazon ...

😄😄😄
I was 14 when this came out I I remember we were blown away in the theatres.. I need to rewatch some of all the 90s movie gems...
If you want a really amazing sci tv show you should check of the stargate shows. Stargate is one of the best sci fi tv series ever. Iv seen everything stargate!
If you liked this, you'd love the show that this spawned (Stargate SG-1). It's definitely one of the best Sy-fi shows out there. It's quite a long show, but it has a great cast of characters. If you do ever watch it (either on your own time or for RUclips) just know most of the characters did get recast.
Stargate SG-1 was my favorite sci-fi tv series. Fun stuff.
Congratulations again on 100,000! Saw this movie at the Fort Knox theater after basic training with 100% trainees. We all died when the distance humans incorrectly saluted. Lol
If you do decide to watch the series either on your channel or on your own, I suggest watching the remastered pilot episode: Children of the Gods. The producers went back and cleaned up the first episode and they honestly made it much more enjoyable. It was originally just straight to dvd/Blu-ray, but you can buy/rent it on Amazon Prime.
Came here to say this. I find the first season a little messy as the series is still finding its place and tone, etc., but for me, it really picked up season 2 (with the introduction of the Tok'ra). And the remastered pilot of "Children of the Gods" is definitely the way to go.
I love the tv-shows. They built up quite an impressive mytology over a decade. And there are some one-off episodes that are absolutely classics.

@VKunia I saw that once. It was awesome! I know this was recorded earlier but still I’m happy for you that you hit that milestone 100k.
Loved your reactions to this fantastic movie and just to let you know, the Stargate: SG1 tv show is even better than the film.
The tv show (SG1) is actually better
Awesome! Between the 3 movies and 17 total seasons of television, this is by far one of my favorite sci-fi franchises.
Love this movie! Great reaction. The series is also great, even though the actors are different. You should definitely watch it, even if you don’t do a reaction video for it. In fact, I think I’m gonna go back and rewatch it!
What series? SG-1? Atlantis? Universe?
@@mikethemotormouth yes. All of them.
I love this movie and all the series that followed. It was super fun watching you guess and be correct about stuff in here and enjoying it too 😊
‘Send him in with some cereal bars; he’s all good’
Fun Fact:James Spader,the dude who played Dr. Daniel Jackson in this film later portrayed the voice of Ultron in the MCU and the one from SG-1,Michael Shanks, later portrayed Hawkman on "Smallville",another character deeply connected to Ancient Egypt.
To be honest I did not enjoy this reaction video, though I do love this film and usually your channel. It seemed at least to me like you were not really giving the film a chance or your full attention, which would prevent you from being swept up or invested in the story and would invariably affect your perception and connection with the characters. You were making a lot of jokes and talking over a lot of quite important dialogue moments. I know its a reaction video and you want to be entertaining but the point is to watch the film that others have seen and recommended to you, its your reaction to the film they are watching not a comedy spoofing of the film. I know that sounds harsh but their are several quite important scenes and character moments that you either did not hear or did not get the significance of because you did not seem to be paying as much attention as you usually do.
I'm not saying this to be a jerk or because I am a die hard fan of Stargate but because it does affect my enjoyment of these reaction videos watching and thinking "she's not really paying attention".
We all have friends whom we have been trying to get them to watch something for a while thinking they will enjoy and then they finally relent but part of you knows they are just humouring you and wont really give it a chance. Sorry to say that's what this reaction video felt like.
Its a reaction video and of course you are supposed to talk but the moments you did were unusual as you frequently spoke over characters dialogue or you were making jokes during dramatic moments pretty early in the film which made it look like you were not really watching it with the same intent or attention as you usually do. This to me would affect your enjoyment of the film more than anything as so much of the content meant to sweep you up in the story or make connection with the characters is lost. The O'Niel scene in his sons bedroom is pretty early on in the film and its very obvious just by looking at his face how heart broken and in despair he is, so the significance of hiding the gun the moment anyone comes in his sons room is very evident and tells you a lot about the character without words, where he is in his heart and head. At no point did you see this, you were watching but not really.
Sorry. I am a fan of your channel I promise and have been since roughly 17K subs but I had to be honest and I hope you will take this as it is intended just a reminder why people do like you videos but for me this one was not great and not because of what you were watching but because of the way you were watching. Unfortunately means you did not really see this film as it was intended to be seen and I think that will have affected your enjoyment of it and mine seeing you review it.
"We all have friends whom we have been trying to get them to watch something for a while thinking they will enjoy and then they finally relent but part of you knows they are just humouring you and wont really give it a chance."
Could not agree more!
You said it perfectly. Just clicking on the little "like" button on your comment didn't seem like enough though. I've been a patron of vk's for a while, like her videos, I'm not a rabid Stargate fan but this react really left a sour taste in my mouth. I guess everyone has an off day (?)
@@irridiastarfire Thanks for the post, glad to hear it was not just me who thought this reaction video was bit off. I hope it was just an off day for her but I have seen an increase in more recent videos of vk talking over dialogue or making jokes during dramatic moments. She didn't use to do that in her earlier vids but its become more frequent in later one and I have never seen her do it so much as in the Stargate vid. It is a shame because I would have put money on her really enjoying Stargate but as I said I don't think she has really seen it, half watching isn't really watching. I'm hoping it was an off day and not a new trend.
Yeah, you're right. This reaction is kinda like that one friend, who always talks in the movies and you just want to listen to what's going on.
@@Saikontesa Yeah that's what it felt like, its a shame if she had been talking less and listening more I think she would have really enjoyed it. A shame.
Ignore all the comments telling you to watch the TV series. Is good, yes...but like Clone Wars, it'll take a decade to finish the reactions.
Another Fun Fact: Dr. Gary Meyers, also has a small recurring role on Stargate: Atlantis. He's funny as hell.
SG-1 is a huge commitment as far as episode numbers but the series is amazing.
You could already see here many of the visual elements that Roland Emmerich used for later movies. The nuclear explosion, the pyramid spaceship lighting up, the small ships shooting beans. All of that is in Independence Day too.
