Hmm, another contest from SciFi.com for Stargate Atlantis

[wraithfodder]

All you gotta do is visit the main SciFi.com page and you'll see the banner on top, or just click on http://www.scifi.com/atlantis/sweepstakes/. First, ignore the photoshopping disaster on David Hewlett's jaw. You looked? Ah, sorry about that.

Anyway, Skiffy is offering a contest for two people to the set of Stargate Atlantis and, ohmygawd, they're not forcing you to you to sign up on Skiffy (or not, as the problem has been for many years). I just entered, and it worked, so yes, everybody has a chance. It's open to legal US residents only, 18 years or older (sorry, that's how it works).

Ooooh. Thanks for the info! :) I really wish they would stop photoshopping the actor's faces. They are all attractive people and don't need to be messed with. sigh.

Seriously, whoever is the shmuck doing the Photoshopping needs to be fired. David Hewlett is fantastically attractive, why the hell did they feel the need to photoshop his face? That is so very deeply screwed up.

Thanks for telling us about the contest!!

It doesn't really look like David! Stupid photoshopping 'must be perfect' airbrushing idiots!! He's handsome as he is!

Pity the comp's only open to US residents. I'm assuming it's to do with the cost of air fares. Not that I'm well enough to travel to Vancouver anyway. I'm not sure how many hours that'd be from the UK, but it's something like 6 or 7 to New York - and Vancouver is like that distance all over again!

Still, you'd think it'd be open to Canadians, wouldn't you? Or are they now considered as part of the US - and if so, do they know this?!! 'Cos I don't think they'd like that somehow! *g*

lmao

I looked. They feminized his jawline! Photoshopping freaks! They must have read that series of news stories that said women prefer men who are more feminized as longterm partners but like to actually mate and produce offspring with the more aggressive, high-testosterone types. srsly. It was a study!

It was hard not to look!

Thanks for the info.

oh dear gods, how cheap is their photoshopping? Nevermind that how old is the person doing it?

[darsynia.livejournal.com]

Bah. Why take some of David's jaw to add to Amanda's???

Anyway. I really like this idea! I have some fun questions to ask, I hope one of them gets picked. Thanks for letting us know :) Part I love most about this? Hubby is a huge fan, too, so I wouldn't have to leave him behind if I won ;)

haha, I just figured it out.
They swapped Sams and Rodneys Jaws lol

OMG. Is that also the cover for Season 4? It sure looks like that's what they plan to put on it. Seriously, DH should throw a hissy fit. Surely the actors have some recourse to at least having their features not messed with that much! Or maybe not seeing how much it happens - at least with this show.

This is the last straw. When the first pics came out I hated them instantly but I thought it was maybe a mistake, then the "water picture" happened, not as bad on the faces but the rest was awful... and now that ? This... that... that horror, monstrosity, deformity, whichever adjective you like better.

So I wrote my e-mail to Joe Malozzi, because he's the only one I know how to contact. I told my myself I would not do it last time, but this is too much.

You know, with that bad 'shopping, Rodney sorta looks like a lovechild between David Hewlett and Christopher Eccleston. I would still beat up the person who did this if I saw them in teh street though!

THAT'S IT! I'm moving to the US.
There are two downsides to living in Canada...
1)I can't get the new eps of SGA (cable provider does not carry Movie Channel either) and 2) I can't enter these contests.
*sighs*
Anyone out there need a roommate?

Thanks for posting the link, I will sweet talk some of my friends in the US into entering and if they win maybe they will be nice enough to take me along.

[tavabean.livejournal.com]

That is just WIERD what they did with Rodney's and Sam's jaws... Seriously, why would they do such a thing?
Does anyone know people who work in this field and have an answer to this most perplexing question?
*is very confused*

[flingslass.livejournal.com]

But I wanna enter :P

[celestial-diary.livejournal.com]

Wishing you all the luck in the world all the way to the Pegasus Galaxy!

If I can't enter, who better to capture the moment than you and turn them into motivational LMAO posters to share with everyone. :D

Good luck!
