sga 3

Thanks to the wonderful rahaeli, I just finished watching No Man's Land, episode 1 of series 3 of Stargate Atlantis, the fps fandom I was involved in before I got sucked into football rps. Ah, the joys of fifth-rate mimes trying to inject passion into their televisual dia- and monologues. A long throw from the real passions that were the drama of the World Cup, where every ecstatic hug and every laugh and every wild tear and every groinstomp headbutt embrace-from-the-rear hair-ruffle step-over tap chip goalsave kiss dry-hump was unscripted and real real real.

Er.

Best line: I'd rather die a hero than a meal. (Possibly sung to the tune of Simon and Garfunkel's 'I'd rather be a hammer than a nail'.)

Best pairing: Elizabeth/military leader at Cheyenne Mountain whose name escapes me now: they are so going to have sex.

Ronon all leadershippy and resolute? A tad out of character?

Rodney a bit whiny one minute and a bit resolute the next? Hello, script-writers? This McKay characterisation was all over the place.

Action, action, action, yawn.

Wraith? Oh no! Are they all going to go away??! Oh no! I love the wraith! I need the wraith! Let them be meals, not heroes! Tina Turner: 'We don't need another hero!'

Flanigan: Oh you try, you try, it's rather sweet, really, but so beyond you.

Hermiod: Is so having sex with Col. Caldwell.

Beckett? Where are you?

And it's all 'Rodney' and 'Radek' now. Everyone's on first-name terms.

Um. That about exhausts my responsiveness. Or, as sophrosyne31 would say, 'exhaults'.


And Rodney/Ronaldo? They are so doing it. Actually, so threeing it: Rodney/Ronaldo/Ronaldo. The gap-toothed one can join in.

Rodney: I'd rather be a hero than a meal, yes I would, if I could, I surely would.
Ronaldo17: What is this you are singing?
Rodney: Oh, you're too young to know it, aren't you?
Ronaldo gap-tooth: You can be my meal any day, honeybunch.
