Well, that was interesting. Since I'm home with a cold, but wasn't quite sleepy enough to sleep, I put the Stargate movie into the dvd player. The extended cut. I've heard lots of folks tell me it's a bad movie, it's nothing like the series, and so forth. My impressions? What were you all smoking?
Okay, okay, some of the special effects were off. And Kurt Russell is not Richard Dean Anderson - his chin's wayyy too big. And don't get me started on the hair! But ... the stargate only goes one way. :) And Michael Shanks did do a bang on James Spader in the beginning of the series.
Over all, I did enjoy the movie, and I think it leads into SG1 the series really well. Kudos to the folks who did SG1 - they did a great job of setting up the story. I'm glad I saw it.
In other news, being sick sucks. Big time. Bleah.
Oh, and we have rain/wet snow falling. Sideways. Perfect.
