i just HAD to throw my two bits into the ring to fight your five billion made-of-awesomesacuce-y bits. ;) it's here, if you are at all interested: http://johnsheppardluv.livejournal.com/58105.html. ;)
i gotta agree with you about the cinemotography tho. it was awesome, except for the bit you mentioned.
in fact that wraith-escalator bit gave me a bit of the motion sickness, which is odd considering NONE of the loop-da-loop PJ trips of dooooooooooooom have ever given me even a slight...feeling...to wade thru. in conclusion, i think they need inertial dampeners on that frakin' escalator STAT!!! *lol*
but was i the only one that noticed the shaky/fuzzy vs. clear/sharp focus of the camera during the alt!John vs. "George" (nice moniker by the way!) casino chase scene??? it was like painting the wraith as superhuman and alt!john as possibly suffering the more physical effects of a concussion. please tell me i wasn't the only one?! please?
i also luved the music they chose to paint alt!john with (johnny cash - a solitary man) and the disguised wraith with (random goth!metal). very clever! especially since the cash song was so literal for alt!john's life up to this point in this alternate timeline.
again tho, you did a great review! :) and i really hope you like mine too...
