Stargate Atlantis movie news, sorta...

[wraithfodder]

SciFi had an article on "New Stargate movies finally ready to begin shooting?" which is more or less, well, not news... http://scifiwire.com/2009/09/amanda-tapping-new-starga.php

EXCERPT: Amanda Tapping says that a new Stargate SG-1 movie could begin production later this year, as soon as the first season of Syfy's upcoming SGU: Stargate Universe wraps. A new straight-to-DVD movie was announced a while back.

"As far as I know, we may start in late fall or early winter this year," Tapping said in an exclusive interview. "And I will slip back into Sam Carter very nicely; I'm looking forward to it.
...........
What about a new Stargate Atlantis movie? "Atlantis is still being talked about for this year," [Martin] Wood said. "Right now, I'm so far removed from it, but they'll let me know, and I'm happy to do it."

REST of article at link above; mostly just supposition and stuff I could swear I've already read in another article just recently. While it says nothing about a green light on the SGA movie (and I'll believe the SG1 movie is being made when it's listed in Variety), I guess at least it keeps the name in the public (sorta) eye.

NOTE: Article was originally titled "New Stargate SG-1 movie in works" and then mysteriously changed to "New Stargate movies finally read to begin shooting?" Hmm....

No your not the only one, I like SG1 an I would happly support it but not first, coz its had 2 movies already an SGA has been just left hanging by the idiot PTB.

If they do a 3rd SG1 before Atlantis, I will be hopping mad, an honestly I don’t think I'd even buy, because it would be so wrong. Sadly though that actually what I think they will do, so it will be yet another smack in the mouth to SGA fans an the actors. Sometimes I really think that Joe F an the guys are so much better off out of it, than having to deal with that lot, an don’t even get me started on what I think of JMs blog an the sycophants that crow all over him “ yuck”.

I know for a fact going forward that I personally will never again support anything JM, Wright/Cooper & cronnies do.

Any other projects un SGA related (an I would much prefer fresh blood for that, a SGA movie could only benefit if these weren’t involved), I'll be polite an call them the creative team do, I will just dismiss sight unseen because I think these guys are just horrible after the way the whole axing of SGA for there new shinny toy
