Another interview: http://www.comicbookmovie.com/fansites/SmallvilleFanatics/news/?a=11924

ETA: At the top is an image of the costume. The author also indicates the movie will be February 5, 2010, rather than initially announced January 29, 2010. We'll have to get confirmation of this change.

There are some spoilers for Smallville and Stargate Universe, and a brief mention of Sanctuary.

Tapping Interview Includes Talk of Shanks

  • Nov. 12th, 2009 at 8:35 PM
You've got to visit Huffington Post for two exclusive images of Michael Shanks as Jimmy in his Sanctuary episode "Penance".

Also, it's a wonderful interview with Amanda Tapping, but be aware that there are some spoilers about her show there.

Tags:






Entertainment Weekly has posted the exclusive that the Justice Society themed episodes are now being touted as a TV-Movie special event rather than the two part episodes previously scheduled.

This movie is of particular interest to SG-1 fans because so many alumni are in the episode: Michael Shanks (Daniel Jackson), Brent Staite (Louis Ferretti) and Britt Irvin (Merrin) all star in the episode.

The purported air date for this "movie event" is January 29.

Updates from Michael Shanks

  • Nov. 9th, 2009 at 4:29 PM
MSOL has an update on Michael Shanks and his projects from his con appearances this past weekend. He's "old and grizzled" for now, but wants to play an Elvis-impersonating Memphis cop or travel the world with the archaeologist Michael Shanks - http://www.michaelshanks-online.com/news/index.shtml

What are you views of having Jack O'Neill as a recurring character in Stargate Universe?

Robert Carlyle said this in an interview: "You dont have to know anything at all. Of course Universe wouldn't be here without SG-1 and Atlantis. But there's no link to those shows really. Having said that, of course Richard Dean Anderson, who is the main guy from SG-1, does appear. But he's kind of a peripheral character in this. He's not really in the forefront and I thought that was really brave of the guy to do."

To new viewers, Jack's a peripheral character -- the head general of Homeworld Command -- but to older fans, he's THE MAN, he's our Jack from SG-1 days gone by.

Thoughts?

Stargate Friday (November 6, 2009)

  • This week's episode of Stargate Universe is "Earth". Syfy's preview trailer )

  • Joe Mallozzi "ranted" about the increased negativity and trollish behavior of some people on the internet concerning SGU's characters and their actors.

  • SGU's "Air"'s novelization is coming out this month. Check out this interview with the author, James Swallow. Interesting quote: “It’s fascinating to see how scenes were actually shot compared to how I had visualised them. I guess in a way, the novelisation is the way I would have ‘directed’ it. There’s not a lot of differences between the two on a gross level, but on a smaller scale there are variations - for example, Air has a lot of quick, choppy flashbacks in it, and while that works well on TV, it’s not so good for a novel, so I wrote a strictly chronological version of the events. There’s also a couple of scenes that were moved to later episodes of the TV show that appear in the novel, and some that were scripted and shot but cut for time.” He admits that there are “some things I would have written differently if I had seen the episodes first, but I kinda like the fact that the book and screen versions don’t exactly marry up - it means that fans who watch the show and then read the novel get to experience two versions of the same narrative.”

  • MGM, Simon & Schuster, Fox International Channels, Turner Sports and More Than 2500 Others Are Live with Gigya Socialize: "Gigya`s technology allows us to engage existing Stargate fans and activate dialogue around our content while introducing the Stargate Universe to potential new fans in their preferred social network," said MGM`s VP of Worldwide Digital Media, Thomas Hughes.

  • THQ signs deal with Sky to sponsor Stargate: Games publisher THQ has signed a multimillion pound deal with BSkyB to sponsor Sky1’s new series Stargate Universe. The deal will run for eight months to June 2010 and covers Stargate Universe - the latest spin-off from the Stargate franchise - plus repeats of Stargate SG-1 and Stargate Atlantis episodes on Sky1.

  • LJ Discussion based on SCI FI WIRE's "Why the Stargate movie still holds up 15 years later" in celebration of the 15th anniversary of Stargate through its release on Blu-ray.

  • The original Stargate's Roland Emmerich is still going to get a sequel, but this time for 2012 and in the form of a television series!

He gets some details wrong, but there's a piece at SCI FI WIRE written by Todd Gilchrist entitled, "Why the Stargate movie still holds up 15 years later". His reason: "Stargate really gratifies in the most generalized way possible, which is precisely why it continues to resonate, spawning an entire universe of mythology and storytelling that spans TV series, comic books, and video games."

Do you think that Stargate still holds up 15 years later? Why?

Michael Shanks Talks About Hawkman

  • Oct. 30th, 2009 at 11:47 AM
Visit Huffington Post for an interview with Michael Shanks about his role as Hawkman on Smallville. Of course, there will be Smallville spoilers, so be careful. He teased, "Let's just say that a few of the Justice Society characters have come out of retirement to meet up with an old foe and happen to cross paths with Clark (Tom Welling) and some of the characters from the Justice League. And let's just say there are some misunderstandings."
