    One of my all time favorite movies, even though it has some inconsistencies, I love it. Even SG1 referenced it at the end of S1 in the episode Politics. It has so many great moments, so much great stuff.

      Not only were there callbacks and cast crossovers
      This was the bigger and more well known/received movie by the same director - Roland emmerich
      He did stargate just before this, and music was quite similar as it was the same music composer.
      He was also known in the same few years for the “infamous” Godzilla movie.
      Follow up trivia point - there’s an African American actor who had a role in ALL three films - stargate, Independence Day and Godzilla.

    Fun Fact: In the official novelization, Dr. Okun (played by Brent Spiner) mentions that in their efforts to translate the alien language to better understand the technology of the alien ship at Area 51, they once attempted to recruit a scientist who had published theories on alien presence on Earth, a Dr. Daniel Jackson, but they couldn't find him, even with all the top secret high level stuff available to them. It was like he'd dropped off the face of the planet some time around 1994...

    The thing that you said about the virus was explained in a deleted scene. They talked about how our technology is based off of the alien technology after the ship crashed and that's how they advanced computer technology so quickly (in the movies universe). Unfortunately there were a few deleted scenes cut from the movie that would have helped explain a few things.

    • @notanactualuser
      @notanactualuser ปีที่แล้ว

      I never really got the problem with the virus idea. All of our technology is based on binary maths. That's universal. If aliens showed up, they might have completely advanced computers but would still use the same basics. Also, sure, Jeff's character had only just seen the technology, but we can assume the guys who had studied the ship understood the programming and hardware of it fairly well over decades, so they likely knew how most of it worked. Realistically the aliens had no reason to believe that there would be a flaw in their tech. It's like how we get surprised when a dog works out how to open a door.

    It's been so long since I actually sat down and watched this film. Such a good story of human perseverance and ingenuity in the face of total annihilation at the hands of extraterrestrials. And an all star cast that made it even more epic. Not gonna lie, I had completely forgotten that Brent Spiner and Adam Baldwin were in it, and I never realised Jay Acovone was also in it! Also never realised that Roland Emmerich was the director, so I agree that explained the very Stargate feel to it. Really enjoyed your reaction to this!

    My first thought when watching this movie for the first time after seeing the Doctor Who episodes "Daleks in Manhattan" and "Evolution of the Daleks", is that these aliens picked the wrong building to use as the epicenter for their attack on New York. When the Daleks find out what these guys did to their building, they're going to be seriously pissed off. :D

      Even computers in general. The guys in the lab had decades of understanding the hardware/software to build an interface. The ship itself has wired/wireless connections to the ship. So all they would need to do was plug into the ship they're in, upload it via the ships own networking.

(Devlin and Emmerich wanted a Stargate trilogy and still hope it'll happen.)

    The "ball of fire" was friction with the earth's atmosphere.
    The number of words and phrases you use that are indecipherable to me is disquieting.
    Also, your equanimity toward stripping as an occupation is decidedly anachronistic to the film's 1996 setting. This leads me to believe that you would be very perplexed by the social context of Brokeback Mountain.
