They don't really need to explain stuff that happens at the very last seconds of the ep in that same ep, if something weird happens by then you kinda assume they will explain it in the next one ;P

**Archangel** · Sun, 10-11-2009, 11:57 AM

Yes but by not even mentioning it some people actually missed it like Inazuma. If they're trying to create expectations for the next episode they should have addressed it further

**Penner** · Sun, 10-11-2009, 12:34 PM

People are bound to miss things every now and then, the shows creators can't start making everything painfully obvious just because some people might miss it, its not their fault if parts of the audience aint paying enough attention and misses some stuff.

And quite frankly that particular scene wasnt exactly hidden or disguised in any way, it was pretty hard not to see it.

Plus that shuttle thing might be part of some mystery, like an alien lifeform that was already on the ship, or the ship itself took control of the shuttle, whatever, if it is intended as a mystery that might also be the reason why they chose not to explain it right away -.-

Was that a pod? Not a stargate going to it's next destination? :P

Who knows, might have been the dead Senator. I wish they could have explained what happened to those 2 scientists who went to the other planet.

I bet they're gonna find out the thing is solar powered in the next episode

And still no mentioning of that shuttle from the last episode

**Inazuma** · Wed, 10-21-2009, 06:42 PM

Open plot point
Leave previous plot entry unsolved and/or not mentionned
Make next plot point obvious
Screw the plot up
Solve it with previous unsolved plot entry using crappy Deus Ex Machina
?????
Profit !

AHAHHAHA Yeah that sounds like a typical SG twist.

Maybe it will even absorb the entire star

Inorite?

**Logrus** · Sun, 10-25-2009, 01:59 PM

hahahah yeah you were spot on there.

Though thought for a second that they were going to cut the others from the series and the Shuttle people would be the new cast. Lucky they dident do that since those who would survived suck.

The way Rush acted when asked if he knew the ship would be fine made it seem like he did indeed know, but if so, that would mean he had to have fake/act everything up to that point, and if he did that he's got some serious skill at deceiving people.

Also, when he realized that the shield generator (or whatever that thing was he looked at) would get power from the sun i got the impression that he did not know that beforehand.

Tho he might have had some form of idea or theory that it was a slight possibility, but decided not to share that info with the rest of the crew to avoid causing unnecessary commotion before it got confirmed, and he couldnt really confirm it until they were close enough to the sun that if it didnt work, they would have died anyway.

Just venting some thoughts ^_^ (also, nice catch on the solar power theory Archie)

**Death13a** · Sun, 10-25-2009, 04:34 PM

Rush had a hunch that Destiny would survive as it traveled thousands of years, sure it would need to refuel power somehow. Rush is a loner and anyone who would have thought about it would have that hunch as well. Only Rush And Eli didn't panicked (i wonder did he also had a hunch that ship wasn't suicidal). I hope he becomes Rush's equal at some because Rush will lose it as he doesn't talk to anyone other then Colonel Young and he doesn't like him very much. Eli also doesn't have anything on Earth to hold him back and content to stay on ship.

Robert Carlyle talks 'Stargate: Universe'

First one down, 100+ to go

I think 70 of them are canon fooder anyway

Anyone knows where I can get HD eps for SGU, in english of course. Heavy GB files are not a problem, I even prefer those.

I tried mininova, but 3 first eps aren't available with high bitrates. So if someone has a good source, thanks for sharing.

**Archangel** · Sat, 10-31-2009, 04:53 PM

Just look around in pirate bay, they have HD versions of each ep too

Didn't think about them, they've got heavy russian versions in mkv, so I just have to switch subs off and enjoy 1080p.

Thanks a lot.

Thanks for the link, I'll try to remember it for other shows.

Edit:
I've been catching up watching all 6 eps.
Music, ligthing and documentary like filming is fine, you get some atmosphere and tension.
The closed space is nice too.
Sadly, episodes problems to solve are a bit too easy to read, like the Destiny headed to a sun for power replenishing or the way they got rid of the water hungry entities.

Also, for some reason, I do not find anything breathtaking or interrest or suspens. It lacks something I can't really describe.

I'll probably keep watching this for a couple of eps, but they really need to find a way out of that pitch black plot. After all, should reality kick in, they'd be dead by now, so they could at least take out some "fabricated" angst and start opening some doors towards a little more hope.

Also, Scott is really a badly cast name, it always activates my "Star-Trek original" neurons every time he radioes...

***David75*** · Sat, 11-07-2009, 05:06 AM

I guess some of you have seem ep 7.

If not, even If I can talk about the ep, be aware that below statements will probably spoil things if you haven't watched the ep yet.

So, that ep was a lot less appealing than the rest. But at least it clearly draw boundaries beetween the crew on the lost ship and the earth.

The orgasm switch was mean, I also hope Young's wife is serious about contraception, because no matter how you look at it, she's doing it with somebody else, and I mean body....
Telford coming back to her is not a good thing, he might use her against Young, and she might already be attached to his body.

It's time our geek starts being genius and fights Rush back.

**Logrus** · Sat, 11-07-2009, 08:55 PM

Really fight back Rush? He is the only one in the show i like lol

He smart devious and unpredictable. Plus he wants to stay at the ship it seems wich i agree no point dragging them back to earth.

Liked how the episodes ended it seems the latino guy is an ass btw if he is about to do what i think he will.

**Penner** · Sun, 11-08-2009, 07:03 AM

I do like a bunch of the characters, Eli and Young particularly, but Rush is by far my favorite on the show ^^

Yeah, since they kinda tricked Telford from becoming commander on the ship and probably hurt his pride or whatnot, he might just go to Young's wife and simply say that he is Young and sleep with her to mess up his marriage, if hes good enough at deception to pull it off.
