Re: Stargate SG-1: Spirits
I believe the term is ''the magical native'' or more controversially ''the magical negro'' whereby the non-white character(s) are able to tap into what is basically magic and is (at least on the surface) technologically behind in some way. I think the 90s to early 00s were the last time you could g...

Stargate SG-1: Spirits
Continuing my watch of Stargate, and I'm wondering; anyone here have opinions on the episode Spirits? Specifically the depiction of the Salish therein? On the one hand, I'm having some major concerns about the depiction particularly of To'nane, since he's coming across less with the kind of...casual...

Re: Stargate SG-1: The Nox
Right?? They're like the season 1 and 2 TNG Federation but even more smug and self-satisfied.
Or Enterprise-era Vulcans.

Stargate SG-1: The Nox
I've been rewatching the show from the start, and I just finished watching this episode. MAN I can't wait until Chuck reviews it, because I gotta say....I am NOT a fan of this episode, or the Nox in general. Pacifism like that only works if you're so powerful that there's no way your enemy can harm ...

Re: Discovery videos down?
I’ll try again with Firefox then.
EDIT: I meant to edit this with results, Opera worked when Chrome and Firefox didn’t~

Discovery videos down?
So I’ve been trying to watch the videos about Discovery, and all of them just give me an ad that stops counting the time at 9 seconds left, and then go onto a black screen. Is it just that I’m stuck on mobile? Are they gone and need to be reuploaded still?

Re: The Guyver Review
I’m betting it’s because Hamill couldn’t/wouldn’t do the fighting stuff and stunts, or maybe he didn’t want to be replaced for big chunks of his screen time by a suit actor.

Re: Video's moving to VIMEO, anyone know anything?
Just as a note, Hulu was, at least, partly co-owned by CBS, unless I’m mistaken? It was a collaborative thing between several networks to combat Netflix with minimal risk, that’s part of the reason they insisted on still showing ads even though it was a premium subscription streaming service, becaus...

Re: Something I don't get (Stargate discussion)
It’s hard to gauge your enemies strength early on, as a writer, especially when you can’t go back and edit previous ‘chapters’ to fit what you realize later about them being too strong, so all you can really do is try to future proof with believable excuses. Done fairly well, it’s the Goa’uld. Done ...
