@@BBBrasil Oh, I don't know, O'Neil could probably find a few. :D

Pretty sure the President isn't one of them. They were trying to bring the other nations into the Stargate Program and Kinsey was using it as a ham-handed attempt to take over, if I was the President I'd be ready to rip his ass with a sandpaper dildo.

Thor be like, sit down and shut up you buffoon!

Thor teleports in, c&c: welcome back commander

The teleports in, c&c: welcome back commander

He should have gone for the head.

That and ‘. . . it is preferred’. The emphasis on the last word is so subtle yet simultaneously flagrantly obvious. Especially when it’s followed by the Asgard equivalent of ‘just dropped by to upgrade SG-1s spaceship in case my previous comment wasn’t clear enough’

that would be a great crossover doctor and parallel universe shenanigan's

The Prometheus does look bigger on the inside.

I think a Time Lord arriving would have them all crapping their collective pants.

"You came alone? Where are The Legs, The Nose and Mrs. Robinson?"

He went beyond the rim and someday we will all join him there. :D

He was a joy to meet (backstage at a belgian con when actors and costume clubs still shared an area) Was going to switzerland to buy chocolate with his wife after the con. Good for a laugh

He was an awesome character…brought real gravitas to the role

@@AeonSaint in that place where no Shadows fall.

Hammond of Texas 😊

Kinsey sitting down after Thor's statement shows how he was utterly defeated

I love this bit of diplomacy from Thor, simultaneously stating that the Asgard’s friendship with Earth would continue regardless of who was running the Stargate Program, while also stating the displeasure of the Asgard High Council should General Hammond and SG1 be removed from the picture. In short, big brother popped in and made it very clear which younger sibling they liked hanging out with.

I love the big dick energy Thor brought to the discussion. The fact that he mentions the high council of the Asgard, shows how much pull Thor has himself. And the insinuation that the high council has more power than all the ambassadors there combined, and that their “opinion” is not to be ignored by this “young, ignorant” species is absolutely priceless…

like thor is thousands of years old so are the other high council members the idea of playing political games with humans who are most likely 1% of their intelligence is a game they are most likely sick of by now.@@commandercritic9036

Yeah it’s sad he only commanded a battlecruiser in one episode😢

Cool guy...he's been in a bunch of movies and tv shows out of Vancouver.

​@@VancouverInvestor Beast Wars / Beast Machines The voice of Optimus Primal.

He was still a Colonel, and the Russian ship was not even finished yet fully. And the actor did not know he "died" till the next season opener script came out. He was asked at a convention between seasons if his ship blew up. He said how could it have been his ship when the last time we see him, we see Daniel Jackson a main character next to him on his bridge. Well the first few scenes of the next season had Jackson jumping into a ring transporter off the ship before it blew.

@@varianschirmer9375 Well.......that's just PRIME

I'm not sure exactly how Thor's title would translate to US politics. I'd have guess something more like Secretary of Defense. But you might be right, he does negotiate on behalf of Asgard in "Summit" (?).

@@imofage3947 In most countries, the guy in charge of war doesn't run the country.

​@@JoshSweetvale What do you mean? Most countries I can think of have the military answer to the world leader of that country, regardless of whether or not that leader holds a formal military rank. I'm pretty sure Winston Churchill and FDR made most of the major military decisions for their respective countries during WW2. Thor's title is formally "Supreme Commander of the Asgard Fleet". That sounds more like a military rank than a political title. And the Asgard governing body is a High Council. I would expect their top political leader to be titled something like "Supreme Chancellor" or similar. Thor's position in the Asgard political system is vague. We know he's well respected, quite high up the chain of command, and often speaks on behalf of his people, but that doesn't mean he's their leader. Some of this is admittedly inferred from the scene where O'Neill addresses the partially assembled High Council (sans Thor) and someone else seems to be sitting in the big central seat. And I couldn't help but notice that the Asgard in the biggest chair was wearing an object on his chest like a pendant. The stand-out nature of the pendant and the biggest chair in the middle usually signals "this is the guy in charge".

@@imofage3947 "Most countries I can think of have the military answer to the world leader..." can confirm this at least for germany. in times of peace military control lies within the parliament, in times of war the Bundeskanzler is in charge

@@momokochama1844 Can also confirm for Canada and DUMerica.

well, that is Thors polite way of saying Hammond is his friend and Kinsey is a piss ant mommas boy simple.🤣🤣🤣

you have to remember thor at this point is several thousand years old he has been playing the game for a while and has probs met at least 100 kinsey's on all the worlds that are advanced but under asgard protection i imagine after the 40th moron talking down to you when you can glass his planet in 20 minutes it becomes abit routine boring and insulting so he most likely has given up on patience with these sort of people.

and the fact we all got this video sugested after watching that SG1 scene.....@@lordsathariel4384

A truly alternate Universe

What did he say?

Or go outside.

⁠@@Ragitsuif I remember he said “we don’t have secrets to our people” or something like that, well at least the Chinese could build their own battle cruiser so I think they continue supporting Stargate program

@@jonathanc5625 Not quite. Here is what he said -> "The government of China does not *believe* in keeping secrets from its people." It should be noted that while people may _believe_ in something, they are not always successful in enacting/instituting/following/upholding that belief.

my favorite line in SG-1

The politicians are always there dregs of humanity, at least in the movies

You can just hear Thor thinking, “I’m certain O’Neill meant it as a joke, but the more you speak, the more I feel tempted to follow through.”

is not a joke xd

@@tontoldoos And worse in real life. Just look at us now. I feel so unfortunate for the people I would have liked to visit, whose governments want us wiped out now. All because of deranged government policy and crooked deals.

I would pay it twice, with the caveat that it had to be one without atmosphere.

@@anonymousperson3153 agreed but that said no atmosphere hes dead in 15 mins at best.a desert planet with atmosphere with no temperate forests he can suffer for maybe days till desert takes him.

Oh no you send him to a world where he can live the rest of his life alone. Worse situation for a career politican, like maybe that moon O'Neil and Maybourne were trapped on.

With gate. The moron could never figure out to use it anyway

If it makes you feel any better remember Kenzie has a Gould symbiote put in him in ends up dying! Ronnie Cox is a great actor.

That is Asgard Sign Language for "Sit your ass down."

Thor threw some shade at the senator

Brought his on chair as well

Kinsey was just lucky Thor didn’t go home, get Mjolnir, and come back. “I haven’t used this in a long while. I’d like to continue not using it.”

@@Ragitsu Or is the Asgardian equipment of the "Middle Finger" and nobody but Thor knows for sure?

"He also never gets up off of it while laying out the hard facts. Them just beams right back out without ever standing up." Drive-through diplomacy.

@@Ragitsulol, that comment killed me XD

Also I think the beaming took longer than normal, like a slow walk.

"Pimpthrone" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Definitely a band name.

@@jamesmartin9401 Yes, but the merits of Drive-Through Diplomacy cannot be overlooked vis-a-vis band nomenclature.

SOLID reference *rubs his head*

​@@stephenhenley7452it's really hard to read that sentence without your hand coming up to your head. It's almost an instinct!

yeah Thor's slam of Kinsey and his self righteous power is perfect .... not only is Thr a higher dignatary among his own ... he is a Higher dignitary among earth as well ... poor Kinsey forgot that part when trying to assert dominance over an alpha when he isnt even a delta

Yeah. Thor was like: "Sit down when adults are speaking."

"speak softly and carry a big stick" - doesn't get much bigger than a super advanced alien military leader on speed dial :D

LOL I guess that's why he's *General* Hammond! Kinsey has the weasel politician down pat, but Hammond has the tactics to beat him!

I'm pretty sure she was more than just an ambassador at that point. 😊

For Kinsey, it isn't a win unless he personally comes out ahead.

The concept of collaboration is hard to grasp for people.

@@vlada Even more so for corrupt slimy power-hungry politicians.

And yet, today, it's the Kinsey's of our world who are "winning" and destroying civilization as we know it.

Many politicians see peoples lives as a game.

But let's Hammond get away without saying any rank

@@CJR-wv8kc They are personal friends. That's why.

​@@CJR-wv8kcthat's because Hammond still has respect for Thor while Kensay was speaking over Thor and being disrespectful over all also Thor would've likely been listening in the entire time and beamed in when everyone was starting to be in favour of Kensay's idea

and the continued support of russia🤣🤣🤣

would have been a badass conversation...

@@mrdot1126 Thank You. A rare moment of inspiration for me.

and that is how to scare people into quick thinking lol

Name an alien Drigsthrowir and nobody would ask, but Thor?! How's nobody took that bit to the conversation?

No need for such detail. I'm pretty much sure, everyone in the room realized that. An advanced alien just calls himself Thor after the ancient Norse god of thunder?. These aliens are so advanced and so old, that we're mere children compared to them and there's the start of stories, legends and mythos. Same with Marvel. Also that episode would be far longer with that (sure entertaining, but still unnecessary for the plot) bit of dialogue.

He actually died after SG-1 was finished and during Atlantis final season was being filmed. He just had to leave earlier due to health issues.

@@develynseether4426 whatching this today makes it feel funny that russia was the only country supporting Hammond a US General. Times changes...

Don S. DAVIES Last movie apperance is WYVERN they have a small dedication to him at the end credits.

@@fuijika yes, is weird seeing China so aggressive towards Russia also.

At least he got a ship named after him.

The Asgard aka humanites wife

Alien being passive aggressive lol.

I thought it was a subtle bribe. He giving tech to the SGC spacecraft was sweetening his vote for the SGC.

The Asgardian version of ‘do I look fat in this?’ There’s no correct answer other than sitting down and shutting up

It's also that he could just beam into one of the most secure facilities on the planet that also happens to be encased in & under a freaking mountain. That is a subtle threat in itself since it means there's essentially nowhere on the planet they can't go.

Optimus Russia.

Cheers to that! 😂

Thor always did know how to make an entrance 😎

@@jamesspring4610 LOL OK now I'm picturing THIS Thor making that entrance in Infinity War.

Because that was just Prime

@@1993bahamut Damn straight.

why I never made the connection?

Very clear distain in the voice, similar to what Kinsey has had toward the SGC all episode.

Thank you for the new word. TIL 'Intonation'

Chekov. Vaselov died in the Tomb. Incidentally, I've noticed the actor reacts to bright lights a lot.

@@DomWeasel oh right lol

I will agree on everything you said exept that start trek part. Captain jericho was not a villan. He was a competent military officer during time of crisis which managed to avert possibile war. Real villian of that episode was Riker and his childish behavior.

@@bahti472 It was Edward Jellico, and I didn't say he was the villain. I said he was an antagonistic technocrat. A military officer brought in for his experience in dealing with the Cardassians. You're right that he did avert a possible war, secured Picard's rescue, and verbally bitch slapped the Cardassian commander. You're also right that Riker's ego was the true villain of the episode. But, to be fair, at least one of Jellico's orders was unreasonable. Demanding Engineering work around the clock to complete some modifications was tough, but reasonable given the circumstances. BUT, transferring half of Engineering to security before the modifications were complete when he knew the entire staff was required to carry out his previous orders was completely unreasonable.

Ronny Cox plays the worlds great hardass, but he is one of the few who is 180 degrees the polar opposite. You love to hate him until you learn more about him lol.

@@kjpierson1152 I've heard of several actors best known for playing antagonists who are really nice people IRL. I think I saw a vid where an actor who portrayed a bully on-screen said they drew inspiration from their own experience being bullied earlier in childhood.

@@imofage3947 Yup, there's been a few. Ronny Cox has always been one of my favorites since RoboCop once I learned about the person instead of the actor. The only role that really pushed that was Captain Jellico...:P

I can just imagine an Unas standing in front of Kinsey just smiling with pointy teeth until he sits back down. No words, just a battle of stubbornness. And we all know the Unas don't back down.

Considering Thor and the other Asgard technological advancements, no brainer picking Thor to stop by and set things straight.

Hell the knox as well. But highly doubt the knox would do it.

The furlings first appearance

Bra'tac would have been a glorious backup. "I am Bra'tac of Chulak, Jaffa Master and Former First Prime of the False God Apophis. I have had many allies in my 138 years, but I consider Hammond of Texas to be the finest of them all, He and his warriors have helped free us from the False Gods and helped us find other allies who desire freedom as a right for all and who will shed blood with us in that goal. We accept no Tauri allies but the ones of the SGC."

Thor cutting him off left him hanging like a fool.

Hammond was always a good leader. Reasonably cautious around potential threats but he knew his friends and who he could trust.

And the glorious Daniel (AKA Michael Shanks) voiced Thor too.. BRILLIANT :D

With the power of science, in the series finale Asgard tech even managed to pwn the tech of ascended beings (Ori).

You have to wonder if Gen Hammond put the call into Thor or O'Neill did upon hearing how Kinsey was being his usual slimy self and winning over the diplomats.

@@DarkLordDiablos Thor responds to general Hammond thanking him for coming and also quotes O'Neill's suggestion about senator Kinsey, both indicate each version, I guess it's the later but on the order of the former. In other words, Jack must've contacted Thor but on the orders of General Hammond, not on his own (likely after they consulted things, general Hammond made the decision, but let Jack doing it). Thor being Thor just knows, how things are, so he responded to Hammond's thanks as he did.

crazy, how it always takes some alien interverntion to get us to grow up, isn't it?

@@momokochama1844 well to be fair those aliens have been around for a much, much, much longer time than us. we only witness them in their advanced stage they are right now. who knows how long it took them to grow up as well. and in this show we take that role of helping others grow up as well

The ends to be met always included his own benefit, though. As an example, Kinsey was concerned for American security (with Earth's as a whole coming second), but at the same time he always angled for his own personal advancement.

Cox is a truly great actor. When he plays villains, they're always very human rather than caricatures. You can understand Kinsey's motivations, they're just not born from 'this is the bad guy. He does bad things because'. I particularly liked him as Captain Jellico in the Next Generation because while he's much more authoritarian than Picard; he's not actually a tyrant as some paint him. He's just a tough commander with high standards who shakes up a crew that's enjoyed an excess of informality for a long time. He's also very good at what he does.

@@DomWeasel From fan accounts I've seen, Cox is also a very kind and friendly person. Another case of where "the nicest people play the best villains."

Probably is and they are Probably already poking us in weird places with weird probes...😅

@@EZ-D-FIANT This is actually true in the SG universe, since Loki's doing experiments on humans. In one episode he chose Jack and clonned him into a younger body. So yea, that stuff is reality in SG.

@@Croftice1 oh I remember that 🤣 Pretty sure Thor makes a joke hinting it at some point too.....👍👌👍

I know I'm gonna 👍

To Kinsey it's a game. General Hammond knows it's a war.

This is the best flashback episode of any show. It enforces the relationship of Jack, Thor, and Hammond. It sets up the technology of the Asgard being loaned to the Prometheus. It keeps the Stargate "program" under Hammond, and goes back through 5.5 years of shows.

Awesome Commander.

They are suppose to be representatives from the five permanent members of the United Nations Security Council: China, France, Great Britain, Russia, and the United States.

He is??? That voice is so much different than his normal voice. That's really impressive!

Talk about "today I learned". The show went on for how long and has been gone for how much more and I just learned this.

He does what? :) - today years old...

What? Ahahah, I had no idea. I've rewatched the whole series like 3 or 4 times at this point and never knew 😂

You are welcome.

as said by thor, there are none they fucked up ibn their developement :P
