Stargate Fan Pet Peeve

I hate it when Stargate fans irreverently attack the episodes or the movies. Stargate Continuum came out Tuesday and on message boards I have seen attacks. I know that with anything there are going to be people that don’t like it, but as fans I don’t think it is right to call it “a piece of crap” or similar phrases that convey sheer suckdom…. I will show you something, this is a post I wrote (agentCarterfanboy) in a thread I started after Stargate: The Ark of Truth was released, on the GateWorld forum. The thread was called “please don’t bash ark of truth”.

please don’t bash Ark of Truth


“It was better than the episodes, the special effects and picture quality are great! The story was engaging, yes there were plotholes and things that could have been more explained like the “truth” in the ark. The BB scene was a bit long…. but hey, Its still Stargate. As fans we should support it, when we’re devoted to something we shouldn’t toss it aside if it is having a bad day. If we weren’t impressed we should still buy it in the hope that MGM makes more and better ones. Sure some seasons aren’t to everyones liking, but don’t forget that TPTB brought us many great seasons, this why I don’t think its fair to call it a piece of “crap” or a “rip-off” as I’ve seen. I enjoyed watching all of them, including the movie.”That’s it in a nutshell. Interestingly, it got locked.

Do you feel as I do about your shows?
