Speaker 1: Welcome back to Geeking Camo.
Speaker 2: I'm your host Craig, and today we are talking save
Speaker 2: Stargate or hashtag save Stargate. So any of you that
Speaker 2: know me know that I've been an absolute massive fan
Speaker 2: of Stargate ever since it first came out or was
Speaker 2: it way back in nineteen ninety three?
Speaker 1: I think it was.
Speaker 2: And yeah, well you can even hear the Atlantis theme
Speaker 2: song going right now from Stargate Atlantis.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Stargate, Save Stargate.
Speaker 2: So what we're trying to do is we are trying
Speaker 2: to get a fourth live action Stargate series up and running.
Speaker 2: And at the moment, the save Stargate has sorry, the
Speaker 2: save Stargate hashtag, plus the petition has one hundred and
Speaker 2: sixteen and seventy one signatures on it. We can do
Speaker 2: a lot better than that. That one hundred and sixteen
Speaker 2: thousand people from across the world. We can definitely do
Speaker 2: a lot better than that. Come on, people, if you're
Speaker 2: watching this right now, jump over to savestargate dot com
Speaker 2: and get on there, take action and sign the petition,
Speaker 2: because we don't only just want to quote unquote save Stargate.
Speaker 2: We want to save the Martin Guiro version of Stargate
Speaker 2: that was greenlit by Amazon and MGM, and then all
Speaker 2: of a sudden they canceled it, you know, because apparently
Speaker 2: it wouldn't appeal to people outside of the already established audience. Like,
Speaker 2: you know, let's be frank here, that's bullshit, because it's
Speaker 2: the fans like myself and you who are watching this
Speaker 2: that would have bought in new people to watch the
Speaker 2: show as well. So we want to keep Stargate in
Speaker 2: the established continuity of sgy Atlantis universe because it was
Speaker 2: going to be written and directed and executive produced and
Speaker 2: show run by people that have been involved in SG
Speaker 2: one Atlantis and universe before.
Speaker 1: Reportedly, now.
Speaker 2: Amazon and MGM they are looking at just bringing in
Speaker 2: a whole new team and potentially just ignoring what has
Speaker 2: come before, maybe even just going back to the movie universe,
Speaker 2: or you know, completely starting again, which is not what
Speaker 2: the fans want. Like I can almost guarantee that, yes,
Speaker 2: we would watch the new show, but it wouldn't be
Speaker 2: any good, Like look what happened with Stargate origins for instance.
Speaker 2: You know the little web show that they did when
Speaker 2: they started was the MGM Plus channel. It was terrible,
Speaker 2: it completely ignored parts of canon and it just wasn't good.
Speaker 2: There were just things that were very, very wrong with it.
Speaker 2: Whereas if we continued down the path and use Martin
Speaker 2: Guiro's show that he was developing, I can guarantee it
Speaker 2: would appeal to fans of the show. And you've got
Speaker 2: what seventeen seasons? What ten seasons of SG one, five
Speaker 2: seasons of Atlantis and two seasons of Universe. You've got
Speaker 2: seventeen seasons of back catalog there for fans to go
Speaker 2: back and watch. And every time people are signing up
Speaker 2: for Prime Video or Paramount or wherever you watch it,
Speaker 2: Netflix or whatever. You know, Prime and MGM are making
Speaker 2: money out of that. I don't understand why you wouldn't
Speaker 2: want to continue with that universe. You know, we've got
Speaker 2: established law there. It is such a good show. It
Speaker 2: is actually pretty wholesome. It's got the right amount of action,
Speaker 2: it's got the right amount of humor, yea. And the
Speaker 2: stories that they would have come up with, like they
Speaker 2: actually already had a writer's room done, you know, they'd
Speaker 2: convened a writer's room, they had come up with scripts,
Speaker 2: they had a studio all set out in London, of
Speaker 2: all places, Like, personally, I would have preferred that they
Speaker 2: kept it in BC, in British Columbia there in Canada.
Speaker 2: But yeah, that's okay as long as they have, you know,
Speaker 2: the established team, Like, we don't want to just save Stargate.
Speaker 2: We want to save Martin Guiro Stargate, you know, because
Speaker 2: just bringing out a new Stargate show, yeah that doesn't
Speaker 2: involve that team is probably not good enough to be honest.
Speaker 1: So I'm doing my part.
Speaker 2: I've been posting heaps of yeah like memes and hashtag
Speaker 2: save Stargate all over the place, all over the Internet.
Speaker 2: I've been doing it on my Instagram, on my Facebook.
Speaker 2: I'm making this video. You know, get on and support
Speaker 2: other channels as well, Like jump on your favorite podcast
Speaker 2: platform and go to my friends over at get into Gate,
Speaker 2: go see those guys, you know, promote their stuff, promote
Speaker 2: my stuff, Like we have to continue down this path
Speaker 2: and get Martin Guiro Stargate back on because at the moment,
Speaker 2: Amazon and MGM just don't seem to care. But when
Speaker 2: you jump on their Facebook or Instagram accounts and check
Speaker 2: under any of their posts from the last month or two, you.
Speaker 1: Should see the amount of.
Speaker 2: Save Stargate hashtags that are under there, or if they
Speaker 2: ask what's your favorite TV show or movie or anything,
Speaker 2: it's just all Stargate stuff, all majority Stargate stuff. Like
Speaker 2: come on, you know the people have spoken you like
Speaker 2: Amazon executives, you will make money. Fucking Jeff Bezos if
Speaker 2: you're watching this somehow, or anybody that knows Jeff Bezos.
Speaker 1: Get in his ear. He's reportedly a Stargate fan himself. Anyway, Like,
Speaker 1: let's let's stick to the established universe that they've got.
Speaker 1: We want to know, actually, what's happening to the Destiny.
Speaker 1: You know, the last we saw from Stargate universe, that
Speaker 1: Destiny was traveling between galaxies and Eli was the only
Speaker 1: one awake on that ship. Last we saw on Stargate Atlantis,
Speaker 1: Atlantis itself was sitting in San Francisco Bay, Like we're
Speaker 1: talking twenty years ago now for a lot of this stuff.
Speaker 2: What has happened to these people like Daniel Jackson could
Speaker 2: be running the SGC by now, or Colonel Shepherd could
Speaker 2: be General Shepherd and running the SGC, or at running Atlantis,
Speaker 2: or you know, Rodney, what's Rodney doing? What's his sister doing?
Speaker 2: You know, We've got all of these unanswered questions which
Speaker 2: could be answered. You know, we could have figured out
Speaker 2: what the Destiny was doing years ago. You know, who's
Speaker 2: the next new big bad that we're fighting? Are we
Speaker 2: going to a different galaxy? Like, there are so many
Speaker 2: stories that could be told. The Furlings, We've never actually
Speaker 2: seen anything of them. There's one episode of SG one
Speaker 2: where we saw some Furling writing really and their Furling portal,
Speaker 2: but apart from that, we've never met the Furlings. Yeah,
Speaker 2: there are so many stories that could be told in
Speaker 2: the established continuity, and it would be brilliant to be
Speaker 2: bringing in new watches to the show in the current
Speaker 2: universe that we've got.
Speaker 1: It just makes sense.
Speaker 2: And you know, in this day and age when you know,
Speaker 2: studios are just looking at making money and all that
Speaker 2: sort of stuff, Like, I don't see how you know
Speaker 2: ignoring the current fans is going to make money. I
Speaker 2: really don't. You know some of those people at Amazon,
Speaker 2: MGM Prime, whoever it is making these decisions. You really
Speaker 2: need to think about it. Anyway, Jump on over to
Speaker 2: savestargate dot com. Get on there, sign that petition if
Speaker 2: you haven't already, Get all your friends and family to
Speaker 2: sign that petition, and on all these different posts around
Speaker 2: the place from Amazon, MGM, Prime, whatever, chuck that hashtag stargate,
Speaker 2: save Stargate in there. Every little bit helps. Until next time,
Speaker 2: my name's Craig geeking Camo and I'll catch you later.
Speaker 1: Cheers,
