Stargate Atlantis: Uses for new publicity stills

[wraithfodder]

Basically everyone has seen the new promo shots for season 5 of Stargate Atlantis, with the odd poses of the gang on the steps as though they're posing for that Captain Morgan rum ad. Anyway, here's one example:



Anyway, here's an example of how these publicity poses can actually be worked into an episode plot! Yes, it IS possible!*



* Of course, it requires a bit of substandard writing and really pushing any plausbility, but this is scifi, so what the heck!

I am sooooo happy that I'm not the only one who saw the strong resemblance to Capt. Morgan! I love the poster!

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

It's practically the first thing that came to mind. Hmm, TV advertising has brainwashed me! ;)

Heh, ooh, there's a thought. Too late. I squashed 'em into a box.

Who's Captain Morgan? Is this a US thing again? :D

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

It's a rum. The ads have these young guys all posing like pirates with their leg up in thin air. Pretty ridiculous, but I guess the photographers on this shoot must have seen the ad ;)

[flingslass.livejournal.com]

Ah, the dorky ad. *nods head* We get plenty of those here.

You are having *way* too much fun with your dolls. It might be time for an intervention.

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

Oh wait at least until I post the next 'episode' ;)

[sherryw.livejournal.com]

That's too funny. Now I have a taste for a rum and coke. LOL!!!!

LOL! I meant to comment at the time, but I got distracted by a book I was eagerly awaiting showing up from Amazon. I immediately went offline to devour it from cover to cover... and the funniest thing is that the hero on the cover is also standing with his leg bent in just the same way. I giggled whenever I looked at it, imagining him rolling around on the floor after the cover artist was gone, clutching his cramped leg. :-)

If I could have ONLY made the action figures grab their legs... alas, they're rather inflexible. Oh wait, they're guys ;)

Oh dear, think the bent knee thing is a bad trend? ;)

[ltcolerrandboy.livejournal.com]

BAHHAHA!!! Well, the action figures almost look less plastic than the inanely amateur Photoshopping attempt that Skiffy's 'designers' call 'promo pics'...

[wraithfodder.livejournal.com]

So, I'm one step closer to being Skiffy's professional photog? THey won't need the actors at all! I'll just pose the action figures! ;)
