It’s also a whole lot of fluent modern English speakers.

Because they found waiting for Daniel to translate everything got real boring real fast.

They also stopped with going through the gate caused you to get covered in ice. Or that it would eject you with great velocity.

The ice was very plausibly explained by them having updated their dialing protocol, because they weren't just using the dhd they made a ton of small mistakes.

I mean, in story yes. But the behind the scenes production reasons for the changes exist. And those production reasons are why the story elements exist.

Or that it would eject you with great velocity.

My head canon with that one is after earths gate got shock absorbers (first mentioned in the Antarctic episode) it made travel more pleasant.

They are very loose with the "an object exits a wormhole the same speed it enters" several times.

No, they explain that in like S1E5, most worlds were terraformed by the Go'auld to be exactly like British Columbia

Makes sense, tauri is the first world after all

I forget where the line is, but join Stargate to visit exotic rock-filled quarrys on every planet in the galaxy!

[-] Uruanna@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Makes sense, all civilizations need to quarry rocks.

[-] klu9@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago

Were the rock-filled quarries at least exclusive to Stargate, or were they shared among lots of shows like the BBC Quarry?

[-] MajorHavoc@programming.dev 2 points 1 year ago

Definitely not unique to Stargate. I remember a cast member from Power Rangers commenting on how interesting it was that so many rock filled quaries were key strategic targets to the various forces invading earth...

[-] veroxii@aussie.zone 19 points 2 years ago

I believe Wormhole X-treme had a bigger budget and better locations.

[-] Thorry84@feddit.nl 13 points 2 years ago

The fun thing about StarGate is the creators are fully aware and even point it out multiple times in the show.

[-] marcos@lemmy.world 11 points 2 years ago

Yes, the nice thing about Star Gate is that the shows don't take themselves seriously. The bad thing about the movie is that it did.

[-] Zorque@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago

Every once in a while they change the colors of the leaves, or go to a sand planet.

[-] teft@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

In Star Trek it’s always Vasquez Rocks for alien planets.

And they are always wearing vests and jackets indoors.
