    Notice how when they are dialing earth, chevron lock almost all happen mid sentence of the discussion, but when the ship dials another planet and Rush takes the lead, every single chevron lock happens exactly during pauses between explanations and/or questions. It makes the second dialing sequence much more impactful and important than the previous futile one, and it's as if Rush was in sync with gate/ship itself.

      @@justajokeforme2854 SGA unfortunately was a little looser with both, tbh. Don't get me wrong, SGA was my favorite of the 3 when I was growing up, but after rewatching all of the series for the video I made back in 2017, I noticed that the gate itself was a rather passive element in SGA in a way that contrasted the other 2. The glyph lights between inbound and outbound wormholes were inconsistent and seemed to switch on a whim. Speaking of whims, one VFX studio even accidentally made a 8 chevron gate instead of 9, and while this has been head-cannoned into acceptable in-universe causes, I remember at least one instance of a ground gate also being distinctly... erm, special. One of the lead writers, Joseph Mallozzi, had admitted that they were visual mistakes regardless. But to touch back on the earlier point about gate mechanics itself, 38 minutes added some interesting bits to how the gates send "data," but then there were oddities like John claiming dialing an underwater gate would "flood the gateroom," in direct contrast to what had happened in SG1. Handwaving, you could just say that John didn't know that wouldn't happen, but was still strange, given that it was a central obstacle. Or even vaguer, despite claiming that they _could,_ how the hell do you manually dial those gates? My head-cannon when I was little was always that they poked each individual star light like bubble wrap lol, but it was never actually clarified on the show. A lot of these aren't _plot holes_ or anything, just strange inconsistencies that I appreciated SGU for staying on top of.

      @@reerjgiorge SGU did have a ton of high concepts.
      The biggest problem with SGU was a lack of unified vision for the show at the start. There were episodes that were utterly fantastic at the start, but the level of quality was very inconsistent at that point, which really turned off fans of SG1 and Atlantis.
      I say that SGU had a lack of unified vision because there were times when the show just... dragged on with stupid melodrama created by the characters, rather than focusing on the characters banding together and figuring out how to deal with the unique challenges of being on Destiny. Getting enough water, getting food, dealing with power, dealing with disease, combined with time travel and all kinds of pretty amazing stories that were somewhat different than the issues from SG1 and Atlantis.
      Had they not had the stupid schism between the crew at the start of the series, it truly could have captured more people's attention. There was some outcry but nowhere near enough to save it from cancellation. SyFy had already made their decision to cancel by the terrible numbers generated with the first episodes of Season 2 and no degree of word of mouth could save it at this point because the show wasn't good from the start.
      It's actually interesting to think what could've happened if SGU was consistent and fantastic from the getgo.
      The Expanse of course is another fantastic series, but it obviously had some issues with SyFy as well. The difference between SGU and TE though was The Expanse was consistent from the start, and it built upon itself. There was a consistent vision for where they wanted to go (Literally the first episode of Season 1 is setting up things that are happening in Season 4 and 5), and the result of this great worldbuilding and consistency from the start meant that the show spread amongst science fiction enthusiasts via word of mouth, and it wasn't long before the show had enough critical mass to save it from cancellation when the inevitable end came in Season 3 when Syfy announced the cancellation. I'd argue that it had enough viewership and support even if Syfy had announced the cancellation in Season 2. Whereas SGU squandered its first impression and never recovered, even though the show had more than enough runtime to prove itself.

      ​@@Brswing Not even close.
      There was nothing inconsistent or incoherent with the first season of SGU. The show introduced realistic problems which the crew slowly had to overcome. Likewise, the trust they eventually had for each other in Season 2 was earned in Season 1. This show expertly built upon long story arcs and people enjoy Season 2 precisely because it is Season 2 where those arcs paid off. What you call "stupid melodrama" was the realistic and necessary setup for the relationships which became integral later in show.
      As a side-note, this is the only show which has ever been accused of having "stupid melodrama". Game of Thrones, the Sopranos, even the Expanse had heaps of melodrama, much far more extreme than anything SGU was ever guilty of, yet not of those immensely acclaimed shows was ever accused of having "stupid melodrama". It's an allegation SG1 fans only ever make of SGU.
      The terrible ratings were only ever due to SyFy's complete mismanagement of marketing. The show simply never reached a large enough audience. Had it been hosted on HBO or Showtime, it would have enjoyed the same level of success as Sopranos, or Sex in the City, or any other highly acclaimed show on television.

      @tyrannicpuppy Rush's first instance of telling anyone not to touch anything as it relates to power wasn't until said episode when they lost it. Aside from that, everything he told the others would happen after the fact.
      For example, Young and the others didn't know Destiny didn't have the capability to dial Earth until Rush told them after they began dialling. He never specified how critically low the power supply was until it was approaching failure. He didn't specify why the Stargate would dial a planet automatically until he clarified he was instructing the ship based on their situation.
      There's no denying Rush acts within the best interest of everyone, especially if it helps the ship run smoother, but he is not in the habit of immediately talking to any of the makeshift expedition on what he needs them to do and why it needs to be done.
      Compare to McKay in Atlantis who is just as sure of his abilities but he will tell the team what he's doing and why he's doing it.

    i never understood rushes inability to be a team player considering their constant need to survive. Hmm, i wonder why every hates me and distrusts me??? The guy is a genius, seeming has social skills even though he can be crass in his interactions, so he never really made sense to me, other being the internal foil of the group. Don't get at me about how he was mostly right, thats called plot armor. He's the main reason the show didnt work on so many levels. I loved robert carlyles performance but his character was written poorly. Like, everyone has a glaring character flaw that needs to be exploited...it got really annoying. the writing and story got better but it wasnt enough to save the show from a poor financial situation at MGM. SGA movie, canceled, 3rd SG1 movie, canceled...SGU didntg have a chance.

In the scene where they first arrive he climbs above all the others and looks down at them, slowly smirking while everyone else was confused. The order to evac was for Earth to be dialed, not Destiny. Every one of them was used by Rush as his own captive lab rats. A world, the Destiny, where only he was brilliant and knew the answers. Only he could "save" them. Narcissistic asshole.

    This show had so much potential, but it was just bad through and through. My head just hurts from the camerawork. The characters and their unnecessary drama. The plot and the idea is really good. What really killed me the show was the sex scene. So degrading, cheap soap opera fill in. If things would've been different, this show would've been great.

    • @Lava91point0
      @Lava91point0 3 года назад

      The point, when you make a spin off or sequel show, Is to show things from a different perspective. If it’s exactly the same, then it’s pointless. In my opinion it was a more realistic take, there were no dues ex machinas (well at least not the usual kind). So of course fans hated it, and brought it to an end 🙄

    • @Kareszkoma
      @Kareszkoma 3 года назад

      ​@@Lava91point0 Bullshit. Bad camera work is not justifiable. It's shaking like they gave the camera to some guy or intern to hold it. Some scenes and moments of the first scenes are just poor. Cheap. I mean budgetless. Like there was a serious problem with directing.
      Also, unnecessary cheap sex, soap opera drama, cheap teenager movie things and the like. How is that a "different point of view"?
      Spin-offs. Atlantis was a spin off. How was it a different perspective? It's the StarGate experience with additions. Nice sitcom like show, action, adventure, interesting stories and characters. Loveable characters, and banter.
      Compare that to Universe. Most characters are unlikeable. Also dumb. Stargate had 8-12 great actors at the very least who were the core and pushing the show forward. Atlantis 4 main + 2 support + 4 other support, technicians, etc, and actors from Stargate, + a couple other main story characters, other side characters.
      Universe? Around 4 at best. But the second problem is the Script. O'neill was a great character, great script, strong background and the actor already had great movies before. But if he wouldn't have had great script? All of that build for nothing. The character wouldn'T have gone anywhere.
      The whole Universe series was pushed by 2 actors with decent skills and script. The others even if they had good skills, terrible scripts.

    I have watched this only once, and never again. When you have so much fighting and hatred towards each other, there is no place in my heart for this. That is why it only lasted two seasons. Look at the 10 seasons of the original SG1 and then the infighting in StarGate Universe and you know why it failed. There is a saying in the bible, “A House divided against itself will fall.” But in the case of this show fail miserably.

  • @thirdofherne9232
    @thirdofherne9232 4 года назад +3

    I think what caused the failure of this show was twofold.
    1. They cast a bunch of wholly unlikeable characters and left themselves no way to add or swap them out for better ones (like they did with SG1 and Atlantis).
    2. That permanent, godsawful 'dirty-lens' camera filter got so depressing and tedious after you noticed it that it ground you down until it was just too painful to watch.
