Always will be my favorite scene

The one Replicator that falls off the wall on Dakara.

More importantly, why did Sam STOP shooting?

Never question an easy target!

They're replicators that made themselves an easy target, why wouldn't you?

Well there's that.

You lie! Apophis is our God and you will feel his wraith!

Shol’va

@@Headhunter1234256 : Apophis turning into a Wraith would be scary. He could suck the life out of people, revive them with sarcophagus, and suck the life out of them again.

Well, coupleof things for the casuals. 1. The serpent guards served a family of goa'ulds, namely Ra and Apophis who were established to be "brothers" together with Jorel who was implanted to become Apophis son. 2. Goa'ulds fought, territories and peoples were conquered. Jaffa would pass their armor from generation to generation, so many times that old armor would still be around. In multiple episodes accross seasons we see Tealc occasionally pulling out his old Serpent guard armor.

@@hawkeye5955 Apophis is not some life sucking demon, he is a God. Noble and just, greatest among equals! You will knell shol'va and beg for his mercy.

You know this is fiction right,, and that he had copious amounts of plot armor.....

@@zerogrey3798 What a stupid comment. Is this show about space ships and aliens fiction? Really? I'm shocked! You must really have a lot of free time to make a post like this.

@@zerogrey3798 "You know this is fiction right" No, this is a documentary.

no this is sparta (kicks a random nobody into a gate)

He didbt have any room for character development. They allowed nothing. His return from death marked his ability to have say on his character

Asking the REAL questions...

It's actually worse, replicator blocks have razor-sharp edges

It's smaller, but also metal, and from the looks of it razor sharp so yes worse by an order of magnitude

Nothing in any galaxy is as painful as Lego, replicator block would be like walking on marshmallows compared to that.

@@Xes_Lana Conclusion: Legos are in fact plastic replicator blocks. They managed to figure out how to use plastic... so now they are striking at our kids... in fact they have been doing it ever since I was born. so plastic replicators existed first. The ancients had it all wrong.

Did feel like they purposely skipped the “singularity gate” to avoid all the problems of suddenly having a black hole connected to the entire gate network. It would still exist being “frozen” in time like it was, maybe the writers decided to recognize that the gate being in that state made it inaccessible as it would take forever to engage the activation sequence.(unlike when they decided to blow up a star with it)

@@turbopokey my assumption for that was that it actually wasn't "every" gate that was opened, Sam made the program (well, mostly) so it's safe to say they probably used the list of gate addresses they already had and just didn't dial the "bad" ones, like the black hole gate. My real issue with the scene, cool as it is, is that we see replicators have ships, yes the wave will kill everything on a planet, but what about if any replicators had boarded a ship in deep space. There's no real way it could have killed *all* of them (and it doesn't as we see later I guess)

@TeslaRock I wasn't even thinking that far ahead, they even say that the wave has limited range, enough to cover the planet but not much else, with the stargates very luckily providing enough extra juice to cover whatever planet is on the other side. There's so many flaws in that, what if the planet on the other side is bigger than Dakara? I'm just nitpicking honestly, it's still a super cool scene that makes me excited every time I see it, there's just some flaws in the logic when you look deeper is all haha

@@turbopokey that one was probably still connected to the Aschen homeworld lmao

maybe that gate was simply already absorbed and crushed by its black hole after a few years

Bwahahaha.

damn, came here to say the sam, but knew in my heart it had already been said lol. Always loved that lil detail they added 😂

Metal Lego

@@bellatorbacon5861 Mega Glitter, there's still a few pieces lying around at the time when they over shot the solar flare and ended up in the far future

@@Drago_Whooves lol

Too true.

My first reaction was 'he'll be back'

Not the first time he's died.

Daniel Jackson 🤝 Rory Williams Dying about once a week only to come back totally unharmed

Im glad they included the "purple color filter planet"

sci-fi shows have always used recycled special effects footage, it would be too expensive to shoot new footage for every show.

I think you may be overlooking a thing or 20. Most of the Goa'uld tech is based on Ancient tech - if a rather misunderstood pale copy at best. Not to mention the weird head grabbing Ancient archive -> mind machines which don't look like stone at all, and neither did the first chamber we see one in (it looks like some kind of metal). Likewise with the Destiny, albeit that was designed later and not necessarily consistent to the SG1 continuity.

@@mnomadvfx Well... yes, but I mean specifically the type of stony panels like we see on Dakara. Seeing that just screams SG1 Ancient technology. But seeing that display in the back is just very SGA Ancient technology. And they managed to combine it together quite well.

​@@mnomadvfx But it's also established that the Ancients were around for millions of years. They clearly went through several developments with their technology looking different. We know the original Alteran technology looked a lot more biological, like the Ark. The archive and mind machines are probably from around that era, as is Destiny. Then they developed more stony looking technology, like the milky way stargates and the Dakara superweapon. We also see crystals used here first, a mishmash of chunky ones in various colours. That's the generation Goa'uld tech is based on. Then only later did they develop the more refined crystals like on Atlantis, and the sleek metal stuff. Ancients are slow to develop but it's a pretty clear progression.

@@chtonAwesome chton.

Static targets bro

I had the thought of "what if a planets gate was already active?". Followed by "they just dialed a black hole since they dialed every gate in the galaxy", and "so the replicators didn't keep any forces outside the galaxy, seems like a machine thing to do" and a side dose of "can everyone see that wave, if so that means everyone on earth saw it". I had alot of thoughts, I've since added a new one, why is the ha'tak not moving.

It's probably a special work mode Ancients added for Dakara Device to repopulate the Milky Way. Probably only Dakara wave was allowed to pass through gates. Active gates changed current mode. But yes, there is big problem for the show. Everyone on Earth should have seen this, as it covers entire Galaxy, so each gate should cover thousands of solar systems and wave from Earth gate should have been visible just like the wave from Dakara.

Just to add a thought to the list: "If this wave travels as slow as the videos shows, wouldn't it take forever to propagate? Even without hyperdrive, a ship could probably just outrun it. And seeing how even light takes years to travel interstellar distances, this wave would at best only cover planets with stargates before the replicators in space would figure out what happened".

@@omicron6513 Given how unreliable most of the CGI stuff in Stargate tends to be, I'd say this was done mostly out of artistic license. I mean, you have Ori beam weapons hitting 700 m long Goa'uld motherships at around 1 km/s and completely destroying them, then when bombarding a planet the beam appears to move at at least 1000 km/s and cause an explosion powerful enough to be seen from orbit, yet the ground crater is no larger than those caused by a cruise missile strike, with the surrounding area barely affected by the blast.

@@omicron6513 I think it was that most the replicators begun their push, remember they were being controlled by Relicarter, an ego is a powerful thing, they also knew where the weapon was and where probably either focusing or moving to focus everting on either swelling the fleet by consuming Gaould ships (which would almost certainly be near planets and gates)

Is that recycled footage then?

He's a regular Fred Flintstone.

I'm more impressed that he found the time to shave his head and _then_ grow his hair back.

@@battlez9577 yeah it is. it happens with almost every stargate activation aswell.

This is almost certainly a blooper caused by them remastering the series in widescreen vs it’s original 4:3. He was almost certainly cropped off the screen in the 4:3 cut but the widescreen reveals their trickery lmao.

Go inside any government installation, you'll still see a bunch of them. Seriously the government refuses to get new stuff for anyone but people who dont need them.

They actually used thousands and thousands of blanks throughout filming. The slomo shots of them firing at 3:48 shows realistic recoil and arm shaking. If you look closely, you can even see the blank shells getting ejected out of the bottom of the P90. They used real P90's, just modified to operate with blanks. No post production added.

Not digital gunfire. Those are actual weapons firing blanks (look at the star-shaped patterns coming out of the muzzles).

@@Kingkoopa00 Yeah, there's no way they get fake muzzle flashes to look that much like real muzzle flashes, they're using real weapons. Digital effects aren't even there now, and this was over 15 years ago. Probably just shortened the gas system and made the bolt carrier lighter so it would still cycle with the lower pressure of the blanks.

@@Kingkoopa00 Oh, and I just noticed, it looks like they're using hidden ear pro too. Looks like they're flesh colored, probably molded to the actor to provide the best invisibility, and then skin tone matched as well. Might even be an earwig for cues, it's gotta be hard to hear when you're supposed to stop shooting with all the gunfire going on, lol.

All the improbable coverups!

I think they intended to just show a few examples, because even if they wanted to show all planets after sgc they couldn't on an episode of a tv show with the budget they had.

Freak solar flare? You were all hallucinating? Nah man, what did you drink last night, there weren't no energy field? One of those woulda worked.

Just another weather balloon spreading chemtrails

I prefer the idea that just because we (the audience) can see something doesn't mean the people on screen can see it. Sometimes these effects are only used to show the audience that something interesting is happening but looking at Jack's reaction he doesn't seem to notice the field and instead just notices the replicators falling apart starting with the ones closest to him which leads him to think maybe someone behind him had a disruptor weapon that worked. At least that's how I feel and it doesn't in any way invalidate the fact that it was never specified in show :P

Three thousand dollars never looked so good.

Same

Different

It's Daniel, he stumbles into dozens of ways to come back to life throughout this show

I believe he got ascended. Again.

Everything from literal gods to the cold inevitable laws of physics have tried to kill Daniel dozens of times, no dice. The only things that will survive the nuclear holocaust that ends the world will be cockroaches and Daniel.

It's happend after anubis defeated by Oma Desala.

@@SigalDa Yeah, but that's literally the next episode. I just wanted to make sure Ragitsu includes that scene when he gets around to uploading the clips from it. And he did :)

Yeah came here to say that, it looks exactly like Yuri's superweapon just without the chains, maybe the SFX company was the same and reusing assets or a homage to RA2 as it is older.

Hail to the great replicators

I feel like ascending is kinda overrated if all you get is a diner. I like a good diner as much as the next guy, but still a churro stand or some Chinese takeout might be nice from time to time.

@@samuelzuleger5134 It's only a diner because the US requires the show to be a USA USA type of show

Hope that at least the pie is good.

Subspace my man

What happened?

Special-ops man right there!

To smart

Honestly, they could've just used humanish bodies or anything else instead of the defective ones and transferred their minds into them. Might not be as smart in the new bodies, but at least they'd live.

Actually I think conservation of mass applies to the Stargate. You wouldn't have one million Asgard you would have one Asgard in a million pieces.

Ya, kinda like "Wax on, wax off" ....

So, you wouldn't have a Galaxy full of neutralized replicators, just a Galaxy full of somewhat neutralized replicators. Or, the energy wave gets smaller and less powerful the more gates it gets shared with. And, if you actually watched the video, neither of those outcomes happened, did they? The ancients were smart enough, after all, to keep partial success from creeping in and creating total failure.

Or simply in space far from any gate

The out going being would be atomized and an equal portion of their body would come out of every gate..

I see 2 possibilities here. Either A: You would end up on a random world or B: You would end up on Dakara. Since the gate is not made for cloneing, it would only transmit the signal and would be put into the buffer and after the transmit is over it would "dial" itself and release you from the buffer.

Since matter and radio waves (or similar forms of energy) are handled differently in the show, as per the example of radio chatter crossing/going both ways through a regular open connection while matter can only transit one way, I would assume that matter attempting to pass the gate on Dakara in this special case would seize to exist.

Maybe this is how Baal cloned himself

its too many for your mind to handle.

And aisles 8, 9, 10,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

He dies a lot.

O my god, they killed Daniel! Those bastards!

Jack "How many times have you ascended so far." Daniel "Three times, if I ascend a fourth time, I get a free chocolate sundae." Jack "Cool."

Daniel was/is altruistic; he wanted to save as many lives as possible.

We don't know how this multi-gate dialing works so we can only speculate. My bets though are on one of three options. 1: Gate simply stops matter entering the gate when it fails to find a single valid place to send it. 2: Gate sends matter to a random gate to keep it all cohesive. 3. Gate disperses your matter evenly. (I think Ancients would have programmed a failsafe against this). Technically there is a fourth option where the gate clones but I really really doubt it is capable of that. Given that we know the gate uses matter from the sending gate to recreate the object being sent at the receiving end, we know that the gate cannot necessarily create matter from energy. This leads me to believe that the gate would fail to re-materialize the matter pattern and could not clone. The reason the energy wave of the weapon is duplicated is because the gate has tons of energy it can use to replicate an energy wave, we know for a fact the gate treats energy and matter very differently from the fact that energy and fields can pass both ways through a gate but matter cannot (as a sidenote this should also mean you can use the Dakara weapon against someone dialing into the Dakara gate, don't have to be dialing out).

Tuna Tuesday. ...or is it "Taco" Tuesday?

@@Ragitsu Usually it’s “Taco Tuesday”

He ascended to a higher plane of existence.

Did you use that same Dell laptop to save the galaxy?

Brutal!
