Right at the end, I can picture Baal uploading an FML story. "Today, I helped save the galaxy from the evil Replicators, only to learn my boss is gonna use my work to destroy everything in the galaxy. FML."
***** True to their mythology, Ra and Apophis battled every night in the underworld. Strange how they are brothers when all symbiotes are born asexually. Perhaps it was imprinted upon them by the queen for some reason?
Jacob Snyder Ba'al went from being a megalomaniac selling the idea that he was a god, maybe believing it himself, to basically becoming a Ted Turner / Donald Trump / Branson / Gates wannabe. :)
+Jacob Snyder Sadly, Ra had very little screen time to actually form his character fully - he died in the first Stargate movie. I would substitute Sokar for Ra, but sadly, he also had very little screen time, 2 episodes I think.
Anubis is a great admirer of the bestseller 'A Handy Guide To Everlasting Power'. Chapter VI, Paragraph 14: Under any circumstance, if you know your minion to be a traitor, lay out your billiant grand design before him! If you then leave the room for some mysterious and to onlookers incomprehensible reason without executing aformentioned minion and onlookers, you have confused them and proven your vast superiority.
I just think of the scene in "The good, the bad, and the ugly".. Where Tuco the at was in the bath tub, and the guys come in to kill him, and then they start talking...blah Blah blah.. Tuco shoots them and gives them his words of wisdom.. "Shoot, don't talk"...
@@gerryfogarty8274 I always thought it was interesting about how he responded to not modifying the gates himself it wasn't that he couldn't do it he needed a mortal like baal to do it to prove to the others it could be done by a non ascended being
Nitpicking Nerd Nope. His plan was to wipe out all life with the device on Dakara and then use it to create new life that would be entirely subservient to him. He basically wanted to literally be a god, the creator of all life in the Milky Way. He just needed to destroy the existing life first.
Baal didn't understand the restrictions that the Ancients placed on Anubis, hence the final question, and the answer which reveals just how murderously insane Anubis was.
One of the more chilling diatribes on SG1. Not only because of what Anubis said, but I think Ba'al's reaction really sells it. Cliff Simon is an amazing actor!
@IJN Yamato he did seem to enjoy it when he got the body that he has in this video , he admired it in the mirror after he got into it . probably picked it out from a large choice . too bad it only lasts a few days
"The extent of his power cannot be put into words... and his perceptions have grown as well. To him... you are dust motes in a storm... a grain upon the beach... and as insignificant as a body that orbits the graveyard of Abydos. He sees planets, stars... not people. To him, the plane below, the galaxy with its teeming life, only that is massive enough to demand his attention."
"Today I had to beg for help from my arch-nemesis on Earth and he was a total dick about it. Still hasn't gotten over me killing and reviving him during torture. FML"
Two of the best Stargate villains ever written in one scene. Ba'al was Intelligent ruthless and charming, for a Goa'uld. And Anubis was brilliant powerful and mad!
Baal was terrified and surprised at this scene Anubis wanted to destroy the galaxy and this is a great crime, Baal understood it and did not want to let it happen, he did not kill for no reason, he would rather rule the galaxy than destroy it Baal did nothing without sense and had emotions (we remember the episode 'Abyss' where a certain woman named Shanann performed, many Goauld would torture her /escape case/ and then ask, Baal locked her in order but didn't torture her, he preferred to do it to Jack and find out from him, this female slave was a sex slave /concubine of Baal , so he probably didn't want to spoil the relationship, the episode confirms that everything he did was thought out) he also always worked only for himself he was independent, even as it was said he supervised the work himself, he also made inventions himself, he was a scientist and a very good strategist in this scene, after talking, Baal realizes that Anubis is insane that's probably why he started working with Tauri or humans Anubis is a monster, and Baal realized it by the way- I dont know why they deleted this scene from episode, its very important,and great acting too
Ba'al would have no issues with wiping out all life either - as long as he can survive. The only reason he doesn't go along with any of this is because he'd be dead as he cannot ascend. If he had Anubis' powers he'd have done it himself.
+Ryan Greenham Wrong, Anubis wasn't possessing a corporeal form, he was an ascended being, cast down half way. The sarcophagus had an effect on the physical bodies and eventually the mind, but he was beyond that existence, they would have no effect on him.
More like he knew he could survive it, therefore didn't care, as part way ascended he could use the device after destroying everything to re-create life the way the ancients did to rebuild the galaxy after the plague, but this time in his image. For egotistical maniacal sociopath warlords and tyrants, that is the ultimate dream-job.
He didn't go mental, from his perspective it is totally rational to destroy all life in the galaxy. He can then seed life as he sees fit and have them worship him, thus gaining more power. He is an incorporeal, eternal being, he has all the time in the world, literally.
@@danielleza908 Precisely. To an immortal time is a very different concept. If you live forever the concept doesn't have the same impetus on it, if you have a plan that takes a billion years to unfold, so be it. It's of little consequence. Time matters to us because we have a limited amount of it and we need to achieve our goals relatively quickly.
So, he's like the movie version (Deleted Scene) of that 'spokesman of Sauron' where speaking on behalf of 'The Dark Lord'(tm) causes physical 'corruption' to his mouth
This scene puts into perspective why Anubis kept his First Prime, Her'ak, around even when he messed up a little when he tolerated failure from no one else. Good help, loyalty and absolute faith are difficult qualities to find in henchmen 😅
it must be frustrating for Anubis he knows where all the good ancient stuff is but he could never directly go for them. he needed others to work them out still gave him an advantage
eternal combat lol. in my opinion, that was the dumbest writing in the entire show. they could have descended him like they did with Daniel except without the goa'uld having the human as his host and never having a possibility of regaining his memory's as an ascended. they could have done the same thing with Adria when morgan defeated her.
@@5226-p1e It wasn't dumb, (at least at the time of writing) it was done because the Others wanted Oma to deal with her mistake, sure they could have descended him, but they care about cosmic issues and not the death of a single galaxy and Oma was a threat to the cosmic balance. That said it is made retroactively dubious by the Season 9 and 10 storyline revealing that the ascended get superpowered from worship, so they risked allowing Anubis to power up enough to be a threat on par with the Ori, like Adria was when the full Ori worshipper power went to her. To be fair to the Others we can probably assume they were betting on Oma stepping in at the last second. They knew she cared about the Milky Way and its people, that is why she aided people in ascension from her temple at Kheb after all. After spending thousands of years trying to convince her to end her work, they resorted to forcing her with the one piece of leverage they had. It's even possible that if Oma had not stepped in in the final moments then the Others would have still prevented Anubis from establishing a galaxy wide power base and would have taken him down, even if it was after he activated the weapon, after all they can just reseed the Milky Way galaxy with life afterwards. It makes sense if you look at it from the perspective of a group which does not value corporeal lifeforms in any major way, Oma, Daniel, Orlin, Merlin and such were outliers and not representatives of the normal ascended, it was abnormal that they cared so much for mortals.
@@Balgoriusis i know that, but they were often very stupid for being enlightened beings, i mean Anubis plans to basically destroy all life in the galaxy they didn't lift a finger, it was only Oma and her followers who were willing to fight him in that situation, i swear the OTHERS are the most moronic of all the ascended beings. they almost allowed the Ori to destroy them because of their stupid logic of not interfering, and it was only the ones who defied the OTHERS who ended up stopping both Anubis and the Ori.
@@5226-p1e Their approach to handling both crisis is actually perfectly consistent, from their point of view. Anubis was Oma's fault. The rule of not helping mortals ascend exists precisely to prevent those from ascending who don't deserve it at all. Forbidding from using any ascended powers pretty much de-ascended him. Since the knowledge of how to gain power from believers was probably not present anywhere in the mortal realms, Anubis was not a threat to them anymore. The rest was Oma's problem. She was probably expected to take the fall and bind Anubis in eternal combat right away, but she reasoned she could somehow balance his evil actions by helping a lot of his victims ascend. (Did she ever drop any hints on how to combat him?) Anubis regaining Dakara changed everything. The Ori couldn't be restricted that way. They were way too powerful. And it's not even likely that they would have won even if they had recruited followers on their own. Many would probably have broken ranks and joined the Ori. Maybe many ascended already did so long ago. The remainder stuck to their rules and would act very subtly only. Hiding Avalon and Pegasus from the Ori, allowing Myrddin to build the weapon, ignoring that Ganos Lal only fulfilled only the letters and not the instructions of her orders by putting Myrddin in statis, and her finally leaving for the Ori's galaxy to help SG1. Acting against the Ori was not even on the Ancient's agenda, ever. The root cause of the Ori invasion is Myrddin's attempt to build the weapon, and Ganos Lal being lenient with the cleanup. Finally, Ganos Lal sacrificing herself was not even necessary to defeat Adria. After turning her believers away, Adria was not much more powerful than any other ascended anymore. Ganos Lal really only had to engage Adria to save SG1 and to tie that loose end up once and for all. Mortals finding this approach reprehensive does not bother them. It might even be their intention. To prevent there ever being another schism, they have to prevent mortals from knowing about them and worshipping them. Preventing each other from crossing that moral event horizon is the only thing they can do for mortals without eventually becoming like the Ori.
True, true! Sokar was scary and of course Ra was awesome being the Supreme System Lord and all! But i guess it would have been hard to bring him back since he died in the movie...I really hope Anubis returns for one of the Stargate SG1 TV movies coming out soon...or maybe he or Baal will move to the Pegasus Galaxy and threaten Atlantis!
It's all explained throughout the series. It's unclear if the Goa'uld were malevolent to begin with or if them being evil was caused by their use of the sarcophagus, but in any case the immortality that came with it's use and the ability to take a fresh host when their body died made them consider themselves gods, even though they knew their power was limited by their technology. Then Anubis tricked Oma Desala into helping him ascend, which made him an actual divine being of sorts. This only added to the already existing evil-god-complex he had as a Goa'uld, as showcased in this video.
The Goa'uld understood the dangers of the Sarcophagus and were actively trying to fix the flaw when Anubis killed the only 1 who understood the tech. The existence of the Tok'Ra and the fact that Yu (and even Ba'al to an extent) were level headed prove that they weren't inherently evil. Anubis was a genocidal madman before they became corrupted, basically a cartoon villain. Most bad guys are the heroes of their own stories, Anubis was evil because being evil was fun.
@@davidkelly4210 you only believe he was written as a cartoon villain based off of this scene, but his plan was to commit genocide as well recreate life in the galaxy to serve him just as the Ori do.
SPOILER ALERT! Even in "Continuum", he wasn't about killing, just the power of taking over the galaxy. (From the regular series, he was flirting outrageously with Sam[and who could blame him, being influenced by LUST the host undoubtabally had for pretty fellow humans!] in almost every one of their interactions.)
@HaBooBo0 Anubis is a partially ascended being, and up til the end of season 7 (episode Lost City), he had an energy shield keeping his form intact. Since then he is able to possess humans for a time, like any Goa'uld. Something about his essence causes their body to rot and he has to move from host to host. Thats why he has the scabs on his face in this clip.
He's right about it missing. The problem with US Television is that they don't want to teach in cruel accuracies of life. This scene depicts betrayal, loyalty, and cruelty of ambition. In 'real life' this is how it works more often than not.
And then he genetically engineered a progeny just as fucking intimidating. God, Anubis was the most bad ass goa'ould of all time, next to Apophis!!! Fuck the rest
I like how the opening shot is just reused footage of Sokar's base. I'm pretty sure the moon shown (Netu) blew up, hehe! :) Also, I like how Anubis' chamber or whatever it's called is dark and has fire everywhere. Very nice.
When they defeated the replicators they essentialy did the mass effect 3 "destroy" ending, Anubis wants to do the destroy endign without sufficient assets. Im guesing the writers for ME3 were Stargate fans.
i think sc2 was loosely based off of sg1 and sga. THE planet meinhoff in sc2, was based of the hoffman planet in sga. Although sg1, sga kinda borrowed some of its elements from star trek ds9.
After 8 years of war with the Goa'uld, the Jaffa are finally about to be free, the Tok'ra no longer needing to be in hiding in underground tunnels and the Tauri (Humans of Earth)no longer needing to fear being wiped out. Now all of that is within their grasp. Anubis is about to ruin 8 years of hard work in a few days with the oush of a button.
Cliff Simon ( Ba'al ) should play The Master in the Doctor Who series if they bring back that character. He'd be perfect, even though he played down his status as a " god " in the last couple of seasons of SG. He'd be 1 heckuva villain. Anubis was just a 1 - dimensional stereotypical megalomaniac tyrant.
It would have been SO easy for the series writers to make a few changes and create an actual alliance between Ba'al and "the good guys". He was both a class act, a highly intelligent and competent player, and completely rational in pursuit of his goals. He would have made a very powerful ally and if he had become allied, it would have established a safe haven of sorts for the Head Snakes. (Goa'uld)
@rikilicious The original version of Threads is roughly 70 minutes long. So, they cut several scenes for the reruns. The full version is on the Season 8 DVD.
anubis is cool. i wish he hadn't been destroyed and we could have watched him more in the series. especially, a struggle btwn him and the ori would be so exciting.
It actually makes sense in-series, since Apophis also took over Delmak previously in the series after they killed Sokar and took over all of his assets. It makes perfect sense for Anubis and Ba'al to have done the same after Apophis died in turn.
it would've been cool to have Sokar around so he would go against Anubis. That would've been an interesting storyline...both evil geniuses and ruthless.
This clip was for some reason not apart of the full syndicated episode, meaning we fans never saw it, which is too bad becasue it outlines some serious plot points. Although i think what happened was this scene interfered with the whole cafe metaphor they used to show the higher plane of existence used by the ancients. when they introduce Jim (Anubis) they most likely didn't want to take away from the reveal by actually showing Anubis still in a mortal body etc.
Xolotl Nephthys true but in Threads, the main plot is Daniel Jackson stuck between the ascended plane and the mortal plane, and the way it is represented in his mind is a diner. Both oma and Anubis have different forms in this diner, and the big reveal at the end is that Jim has been Anubis all along, filtering from the mortal plane to the ascended to gloat over Oma and too make Jackson realize the others will not lift a finger to stop him. i think they cut this scene becasue they thought it would be too confusing to go from the ascended plane Anubis to Anubis in the human body, back and forth etc.
@charmer2323 It's possible. I read somehwere that "Threads" was longer on British tv by about 2 minutes, so the dvd version is likely to be USA version ...
I've always thought about what did Anubis do, that originally got him banished from the system lords. I think there as been rumors but nothing ever officially said.
I reckon it was his plan to ascend and destroy the universe and build it to his design. The other Goa'ulds would each have done it themselves given the chance but as they didn't know how he would do it, they just decided to banish him and say he did unspeakable acts, lest any other Goa'ulds try to do the same thing. It wasn't that Anubis was more evil. He was just more successful.
I read/watched somewhere that he tried and failed to kill Ra who was supreme system lord and his brother (I think) to try and take his place but evidently he was banished and when he ascended he was thought dead.
He's said to have done 'unspeakable evils' my guess is that he was actually a secular goa'uld who allowed humans and Jaffa to stand equal with the Goa'uld serving him. His Jaffa were allowed to kill Goa'uld as shown in 'The Other Guys' and 'Homecoming' and when his first prime witnessed the ascended Daniel Jackson's attack being prevented he admitted that was not his doing.
And that my friends is why Anubis is the best villain to ever grace the Stargate series with his awesome presence, lol! HE'S JUST BADASS! I truly miss the guy,he was always one step ahead of everyone and no matter what SG1 did to him he always came back (I love unkillable baddies). The Ori and Adria are boring bad guys who lack unique personalities (they're jut ancient knockoffs of the Goa'uld, and much less ambitious than Anubis).
Right at the end, I can picture Baal uploading an FML story. "Today, I helped save the galaxy from the evil Replicators, only to learn my boss is gonna use my work to destroy everything in the galaxy. FML."
the three best Goa'uld: Ra, Anubis, and Ba'al. Ra was utterly powerful, Anubis was feared beyond comprehension, Ba'al . . . Ba'al had class
Kinda forgetting sokar, he was the "devil" afterall.

It's unclear if the Goa'uld were malevolent to begin with or if them being evil was caused by their use of the sarcophagus, but in any case the immortality that came with it's use and the ability to take a fresh host when their body died made them consider themselves gods, even though they knew their power was limited by their technology.
Then Anubis tricked Oma Desala into helping him ascend, which made him an actual divine being of sorts. This only added to the already existing evil-god-complex he had as a Goa'uld, as showcased in this video.
The Goa'uld understood the dangers of the Sarcophagus and were actively trying to fix the flaw when Anubis killed the only 1 who understood the tech. The existence of the Tok'Ra and the fact that Yu (and even Ba'al to an extent) were level headed prove that they weren't inherently evil. Anubis was a genocidal madman before they became corrupted, basically a cartoon villain.
Most bad guys are the heroes of their own stories, Anubis was evil because being evil was fun.
Probably no more evil than the rest of them, just far more ambitious.
@@davidkelly4210 Yu went senile though...
@@davidkelly4210
you only believe he was written as a cartoon villain based off of this scene, but his plan was to commit genocide as well recreate life in the galaxy to serve him just as the Ori do.
Anubis: "I know more of this universe then you could even dream. That is why I must... DESTROY IT!"
Anubis was my favorite super villain of this show, he was kind of like the oricy, he should come back if a new series is made.
Your comment is 8 years old damn.
I like Baal, he's the best system lord and you know it!
but hathor is the sexiest...... :D
SPOILER ALERT!
Even in "Continuum", he wasn't about killing, just the power of taking over the galaxy. (From the regular series, he was flirting outrageously with Sam[and who could blame him, being influenced by LUST the host undoubtabally had for pretty fellow humans!] in almost every one of their interactions.)
At 1:45 you can see Baal realize how screwed he is.
The moment Ba'al realizes he's found more than his match in malevolence.
"I will destroy every living thing in this galaxy. Including you!". That's when you know you have need to quit your current job and find another boss.
Anubis: "Worse than failure. Worse than cowardice."
Closed captioning: "Was that failure. Worse than coitus."
😂
Many experience cowardice before coitus rears its head.
Barring Sokar, Anubis was the most badass Goa'uld ever!
Harshit Gulati Too bad Sokar was used just to have Apophis return. With all the build up around him you'd figure he'd last more than just 2 episodes.
i think Anubis is a much better supervillian that palpatine
@HaBooBo0 Anubis is a partially ascended being, and up til the end of season 7 (episode Lost City), he had an energy shield keeping his form intact. Since then he is able to possess humans for a time, like any Goa'uld. Something about his essence causes their body to rot and he has to move from host to host. Thats why he has the scabs on his face in this clip.
God I miss this series.
He's right about it missing. The problem with US Television is that they don't want to teach in cruel accuracies of life. This scene depicts betrayal, loyalty, and cruelty of ambition. In 'real life' this is how it works more often than not.
Baal is awesome.. He is like funny in a anoying way :-)
Despite how evil Anubis is, referring to your plans as "the grand design" is a straight up baller move, and you gotta respect that.
Even for a Goa'uld that's a boss declaration
He is the grand design is what he said.
@@dport9563 "mine"
Bruh was really playing the long game like "why be system lord if I can be galaxy lord"
anubis was and still is bad ass
0:01 hey look its Sokars/Apophis homeworld...wait a minute did that get destroy in season 4 finally XD
rip baal actor
And then he genetically engineered a progeny just as fucking intimidating. God, Anubis was the most bad ass goa'ould of all time, next to Apophis!!! Fuck the rest
How dare you ignore Ba'al last of the system lords. That man worked his butt off after the empire crumbled
Would have been cool if anubis' eyes glowed after he said "MINE!!!!!"
Still true 11 years later!
Anubis has to be the most mental of them all. I like the fact that he's so superior to the rest of the goa'uld.
REDHOG PIGSNOT or Marduk.
i wish we saw more of the major goauld worlds. like what that city like and how did each of the different groups of goauld worlds where.
I like how the opening shot is just reused footage of Sokar's base. I'm pretty sure the moon shown (Netu) blew up, hehe! :)
Also, I like how Anubis' chamber or whatever it's called is dark and has fire everywhere. Very nice.
It belonged to Sokar and Apophis.
Yes you know your Stargate lol
ba'al was my favourite goa'uld. "Over 600 channels and nothing to watch..."
When they defeated the replicators they essentialy did the mass effect 3 "destroy" ending,
Anubis wants to do the destroy endign without sufficient assets.
Im guesing the writers for ME3 were Stargate fans.
Huh, never thought of it that way. Good point.
LordDarthHarry you know whats peculiar, thats what amon of sc2 is, i think sc2 based that part on this.
lolaz wabby
Wow that fits too. I guess this series attracted more fans than critics thought.
i think sc2 was loosely based off of sg1 and sga. THE planet meinhoff in sc2, was based of the hoffman planet in sga. Although sg1, sga kinda borrowed some of its elements from star trek ds9.
And you even have a giant battle against a much stronger foe just like in ME3 :P And the same "protect the superweapon that is ancient design".
the only thing that would have made this scene so much better was Anubis' eyes doing the glowing thing at the end
He cant do that, he doesn't have a snake. He's just a "ghost".
Funny how this is sokar’s planet. Makes sense considering…
0:01 It's Delmak ( Sokar's Planet ) and we can see Netuu too !
Lmao !
We know, most of us visiting the video watched the show ;p
Yeah. Didn't we blow Netu up? I think that's the point. They dun goofed.
John Drake Visit Scenic, breathtaking Delmak, Hell - planet of the galaxy !
@eviltreemonster Nope. Stock footage. It's the same as using the Alpha Gate prop in seasons 4 and 5, when the SGC was using the Beta Gate.
In fact, that is another moon.. Delmak originally had 9 moons, so now it's 8 left...
well he did call it the 'grand design' Ba'al: 'who's grand design?' Anubis: 'MINE!'
This is pretty cool. Sent a chill down my back. Thanks for posting!
did anyone else just love ba'al?
YES! not even, a love to hate deal. Ba'al is a villain who specialized in Charisma
After 8 years of war with the Goa'uld, the Jaffa are finally about to be free, the Tok'ra no longer needing to be in hiding in underground tunnels and the Tauri (Humans of Earth)no longer needing to fear being wiped out. Now all of that is within their grasp. Anubis is about to ruin 8 years of hard work in a few days with the oush of a button.
Goa'uld can disguise their voice, and make it sound like their host. It's happened several times int he series.
its funny how Anubis looks like he has herpies
Something the make-up guy would've brought up.
i get chills everytime i see that scene!
who knows what else hes up to!
Anubis and sokar are played by the same actor. If you compare videos you can hear it in the voice. I often think of Anubis as a half ascended sokar.
Cliff Simon ( Ba'al ) should play The Master in the Doctor Who series if they bring back that character. He'd be perfect, even though he played down his status as a " god " in the last couple of seasons of SG. He'd be 1 heckuva villain.
Anubis was just a 1 - dimensional stereotypical megalomaniac tyrant.
Anubis' gas bill must be horrific.
It would have been SO easy for the series writers to make a few changes and create an actual alliance between Ba'al and "the good guys". He was both a class act, a highly intelligent and competent player, and completely rational in pursuit of his goals. He would have made a very powerful ally and if he had become allied, it would have established a safe haven of sorts for the Head Snakes. (Goa'uld)
Agreed. That was a little bit of a missed opportunity imo.
There is just a one BIG flaw - Baal couldn´t be trusted. Ever. That´s also why he ended exactly, how he did.
Subtitles: was that failure....worse than coitus?
Lmao, what?
Baal is smarter, more cunning
Anubis is a failure.
Even Ba'al can see Anubis is completely insane!!
SARAH
darn i wish they put that scene in the dvd, i loved the part!
They did. On some of them. I have 1
@rikilicious The original version of Threads is roughly 70 minutes long. So, they cut several scenes for the reruns. The full version is on the Season 8 DVD.
Baal crapped his pants 😂
no more baalls for him
Before we had Thanos wanting to wipe out the universe, we had Baal.
Don't you mean "Anubis"?
ba'al was so awesome
anubis is cool. i wish he hadn't been destroyed and we could have watched him more in the series. especially, a struggle btwn him and the ori would be so exciting.
I wonder that if the goa'uld possess such advanced technology, why do they use fires instead of electrical or other sophisticated lighting??
Its an asthetic choice.
Well that planet was formerly owned by the goa'uld sokar (satan in human folklore)
he was kinda obsessed with fire.
NIELS MICHIELS
I'm betting that was the editors using stock footage to save on budget costs. A common but forgiveable occurrence on this show.
Harshit Gulati those is not real fire. its all holograms.
It actually makes sense in-series, since Apophis also took over Delmak previously in the series after they killed Sokar and took over all of his assets. It makes perfect sense for Anubis and Ba'al to have done the same after Apophis died in turn.
Anubis, bud, there is something on your face.
Anubis needs to ring the clinic for some herp cream.
it would've been cool to have Sokar around so he would go against Anubis. That would've been an interesting storyline...both evil geniuses and ruthless.
Does Anubis really think Baal is going to stay loyal since Anubis plans to wipe him out?
Admiral Talax didnt matter he thought he was gonna take Dakara
@XenousPrime In Real Life . In The SG-1 Universe , The Goa`uld inspired Those Pantheons .
Anubis is as evil as they come. And Ba’al is as cunning as they come.
Why he say someone he wants to serve him that he will kill him in the end?
Omg the voice of anubis is so evil !
How have I never seen this clip? I feel like a failure as a Stargate fan :/
This clip was for some reason not apart of the full syndicated episode, meaning we fans never saw it, which is too bad becasue it outlines some serious plot points.
Although i think what happened was this scene interfered with the whole cafe metaphor they used to show the higher plane of existence used by the ancients.
when they introduce Jim (Anubis) they most likely didn't want to take away from the reveal by actually showing Anubis still in a mortal body etc.
In the previous episodes we see Anubis in a mortal body.
Xolotl Nephthys
true but in Threads, the main plot is Daniel Jackson stuck between the ascended plane and the mortal plane, and the way it is represented in his mind is a diner.
Both oma and Anubis have different forms in this diner, and the big reveal at the end is that Jim has been Anubis all along, filtering from the mortal plane to the ascended to gloat over Oma and too make Jackson realize the others will not lift a finger to stop him.
i think they cut this scene becasue they thought it would be too confusing to go from the ascended plane Anubis to Anubis in the human body, back and forth etc.
Mckenzie .Latham But the scene occurs at the very beginning of Threads - there would be no flitting between Jim and Anubis inside the episode.
anubis is so fucking cool T.T love the voice
Anubis channeling Thanos in endgame.. or was it Thanos channeling Anubis?
i'm channeling your sister.
@charmer2323 It's possible. I read somehwere that "Threads" was longer on British tv by about 2 minutes, so the dvd version is likely to be USA version ...
Anubis has some mad canker sores.
I've always thought about what did Anubis do, that originally got him banished from the system lords. I think there as been rumors but nothing ever officially said.
I reckon it was his plan to ascend and destroy the universe and build it to his design. The other Goa'ulds would each have done it themselves given the chance but as they didn't know how he would do it, they just decided to banish him and say he did unspeakable acts, lest any other Goa'ulds try to do the same thing.
It wasn't that Anubis was more evil. He was just more successful.
Yeah, I see what you are saying but I doubt that was the reason he was exiled. But that is just my opinion.
I read/watched somewhere that he tried and failed to kill Ra who was supreme system lord and his brother (I think) to try and take his place but evidently he was banished and when he ascended he was thought dead.
dom jones That doesn't seem like something "Unspeakable even to the Goa'uld". They were regularly trying to off one another.
He's said to have done 'unspeakable evils' my guess is that he was actually a secular goa'uld who allowed humans and Jaffa to stand equal with the Goa'uld serving him. His Jaffa were allowed to kill Goa'uld as shown in 'The Other Guys' and 'Homecoming' and when his first prime witnessed the ascended Daniel Jackson's attack being prevented he admitted that was not his doing.
Before The Evil,Cloaked Darth Sidious Shadowy Look.
I'm a god that no one can beat aka a boss
come on, who talks like that?
right now Im working on ascention so I can use the energy to stop explosions and aterro like events.
So which episode is this from? Threads? Is it on the dvd for season 8?
is it me or is sokars home planet becoming a sort of korriban. where all bad guys hang out
The start looks a tab like Sokar's home planet
Ladies and gentlemen, we need a new stargate series that was as awesome as the first two. Ignore the third one....
jmorris6758 SGU was great. Especially loved the Novus Mundus plot.
I loved novus and futura
And that my friends is why Anubis is the best villain to ever grace the Stargate series with his awesome presence, lol! HE'S JUST BADASS! I truly miss the guy,he was always one step ahead of everyone and no matter what SG1 did to him he always came back (I love unkillable baddies). The Ori and Adria are boring bad guys who lack unique personalities (they're jut ancient knockoffs of the Goa'uld, and much less ambitious than Anubis).
What is necessary, and what is not, in *_T H E G R A N D D E S I G N_*
anubis was so awsome
