Stargate Origins

For the past 10 years or so I have not felt the urge to make an account here, what alone to make a comment about it.

I just finished watching the first 3 episodes and this is an disappointment to the Stargate franchice, the CGI is obviously all done by green screen but this obviously looks even worse then the first SG1 episode that came out.

Acting is terrible, the story is terrible and just everything about this is terrible..

I will of course watch the rest of the episodes no matter how bad they are just because it's Stargate but this is just bad, even what we learned from SG1 from what happened before means nothing here and it seems the storyline here will just go random from here on.

Sorry for being this salty but this is just bad..

For the love of god, they ended that show with a massive cliffhanger. Why did they even make this one when you already had a great show (universe) ready for revival??!! what the actual...?!

From what I understand, this series was made to show that people are still interested in a SG universe and to have a studio take notice and release a new show.

What they have done is pretty much put a nail in the coffin of said universe. They have blatantly done things to anger the fans who were actually waiting eagerly for a continuation of the universe, therefore greatly reducing the chances that a studio will take a chance on spending money to get a real show developed.

I could live with many things until the show and "actors" would find its feet, bad acting, bad dialogue, etc., but going against cannon makes me question if the people who put this together were ever really fans in the first place.

I will stick to rewatching the old series' and hope that some studio will achieve the potential of the SG universe, because this amateurly put together show certainly has not.

I was so excited to hear about Origins, and had no idea this was going to be such a low budget amateurish affair. It looks like something a film student would do on a shoestring budget as his first production.

Since I heard about the project some time ago I have been waiting patiently for it's release. I am a massive fan of all things Stargate, having watched the original movie, SG 1, Atlantis, Universe and loved the lot of them. It's fair to day I was pretty disappointed when Universe was cancelled.

So the premise for this was already pretty well known, let's make a prequel and show what happened when they first found the Stargate.

The whole thing seems like a college project. The acting is amateur, the story is dull and corny. The effects aren't even that good.

To me this looks like one thing and that's a way for them to cash in on a popular franchise.

If your a fan you will watch this anyway and no doubt be disappointed but if your not and just planned watching it anyway then save your time. A real let down, the 2 stars is me being generous and I give it mainly for the music.
