First, you can send a Valentine on your favorite CBS show at http://www.fridaynightlove.com/ - Flashpoint or Numb3rs.  Here's one of the Flashpoint ones. Okay, I find sending Valentine cards with guys with guns in the pictures to be ... odd... but hey, I'll take the photos :)



Also, Chicago Tribune entertainment columnist Maureen Ryan pointed out this hysterical video of Darth Vader and a bunch of stormtroopers dancing to Michael Jackson's THRILLER (at the 3 minute mark) at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UkTQwP2gFxU  I had no idea they had Star Wars dance-offs. So much more fun than Dancing with the Stars!

Remember I said Comic Con was crowded? You can see a picture from above of the seething hordes ;) at http://www.usatoday.com/life/people/2009-02-08-comic-con_N.htm

Stargate and Comic Con

  • Feb. 5th, 2009 at 7:45 PM
Hot guys
Ah, finally, a tiny link to Stargate SG-1, though not Atllantis, at the New York Comic Con. Sean Patrick Flannery (aka Orlin the alien in SG-1) is going to be there promoting The Boondocks Saints, a movie that has been out a while and now has a sequel coming out. Never heard of it myself, but apparently he and another actor from the show will be a booth doing a signing, so I'll try to be there, and try to see Seth Green do his Robot Chicken panel, and the Dead Like Me people are there for their new movie, and Torchwood. I've never seen it, but am darned curious. Oh yeah, and Jared Padalecki  (from CW's Supernatural) will there promoting the Friday the 13th movie. I'm willing to bet he will be MOBBED by teenage girls!

and in between trying to see those panels, I must criss-cross the entire Jacob Javits Center dealer's room full of stuff I surely don't need but will want, especially if I see any Stargate Atlantis goodies, or cute little Godzillas, or some other knickknacks that fits  my budget.

Anybody else going Saturday??

New York Comic Con

Ah, it would be nice to see some Stargate presence at the NY Comic Con....

However, Milo Ventimiglia, from HEROES, will be there! As will the cast of Fox's FRINGE! Too bad neither show really interests me, but I may check out their panels if I can find out where the rooms are this year ;) And J. Michael Straczynski from Babylon 5 will be there, too. However Seth Green will be there and I saw five minutes of ROBOT CHICKEN and laughed myself silly.

Unfortunately, Diamond Select Toys has again pushed back the release date for the series 3 Stargate Atlantis action figures until mid-February. Darn! Did I whine about this already? Hmm... anyway, was hoping to pick up a spare Ronon so I could beat one up in action figure theater.

Anywhere, there is a great blog that posts stuff on the con at http://www.mediumatlarge.net. Regrettably, it's where I found this video that is either really cute or makes you want to confess your bank account number if forced to watch repeatedly ;)

Stargate Atlantis at Comic Con 2008 #1

McKay did it

Listed below the cut are all the links I’ve culled, so far, on Stargate Atlantis’ presence at Comic-Con. I did this last year, so figured, might as well it again since I’m searching for the stuff for myself J

 

There are some SG1/Continuum links as well, as the press covered it more than SGA (darn darn darn). Mind you, this list isn’t everything as stuff pops up on the web all the time, and wait, the con isn’t even over yet, so folks still have to post photos (we can hope). Anyway, here’s the start.

The Stargate-Atlantis Comic-Con spoiler video is now available!

 

http://tv.yahoo.com/stargate-atlantis/show/35558/videos/3559666 has the video online. Thanks to Maureen Ryan of the Chicago Tribune for posting the link. This 2.15 minute video does contain clips from season 4, but they go by so fast, you really can't get spoiled (unless you know NOTHING of the cast changes, then, er, avoid).

 
UPDATE: Visit next link on this LJ -

http://www.comicsonline.com/modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=304

has an interview with Amanda Tapping. She talks about Stargate Atlantis, SG-1 and the movies. Excerpt: MS: You just made the big switch from "Stargate SG1" to "Stargate Atlantis" this season; how is the feel of working on Atlantis as opposed to your time on SG-1? AT: Honestly, it's different. It's very different. I think that with the SG1 cast, we didn't act as seriously because we had been together so long. There was a lot of laughter and a kind of goofiness. It should be illegal how much fun we have... and get paid for doing it. With Atlantis it's fun. It's a different vibe. It's a little more serious. I still love going to work everyday. It's been so welcoming and its been very nice. It still feels different, but maybe that's because my character is in a different position so I have to sort of "step it up a bit". It feels like I'm playing a different character in some ways. I feel a little like a fish out of water.

Shep-awesome

http://www.multichannel.com/article/CA6465556.htm, journalist Mary McNamara reported… The Battlestar and Stargate events, held in Ballroom 20, were convention highlights. Sci Fi touted the women of Battlestar. The line for the panel snaked a quarter mile through the convention hallways and out onto a hot, sunny patio. Hundreds baked in the sun; thousands, apparently, were turned away. … The Stargate SG-1 and Stargate Atlantis panels were raucous, moderated by Gary Jones, a Toronto Second City improv vet who plays the beloved “GateGuy” (Chief Master Sgt. Walter Harriman) on SG-1. No such event would be complete without a fan protest. When an audience member asked the Stargate producers “what they have against doctors,” the 4,500-strong crowd roared and hundreds of little Scottish flags fluttered in the air. Earlier, a fan named Michelle from San Francisco had distributed the keepsakes in support of returning Dr. Carson Beckett (Paul McGillion) to the Atlantis cast. The character, a Scot and a medical doctor, was killed off last season. The producers tried to deflect the issue with humor. “It’s not doctors we have a problem with,” executive producer Robert Cooper quipped. “It’s Scottish people.” Atlantis showrunner Joe Mallozzi assured the crowd he loved Scottish people and instructed them to redirect their “hate e-mail to Rob Cooper. My inbox is full.” Later, in the hallways, fans dressed in kilts played a dirge on bagpipes.  And check out the Dead Like Me article for a link to pictures of the Stargate SG1/Atlantis buses at http://m2tv.typepad.com/photos/mgm_buses/index.html

This MP3 file will contain interviews with Stargate Atlantis stars Joseph Mallozzi, Jewel Staite, David Hewlett, and Joe Flanigan. Thanks to [info]beaniesheppard for the tip!   NOTE: some minor spoilers for season 4 but nothing that will make you go "ARGH, OHMYGAWD!"

Lastly, the Pittsburgh-Post-Gazette has several articles on Comic-Con at http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/07207/804041-42.stm. One excerpt: I was determined to get my TV geek on and get a good seat at the "Stargate SG-1" panel, where there was exclusive footage of their straight-to-DVD movies coming out next year. I got a good seat -- well, decent, actually. I was over an hour early in an auditorium that seats 5,000, and about a third was already filled when I got there. It was packed by the time the cast arrived.  More at link above.

It's a lengthy article about the con which is a good read.

Meanwhile, Gateworld is reporting Stargate Atlantis will air at 10:00 pm. If so, why has the station spent probably hundreds of thousands of dollars on TV ads that say "9:00 pm"??? Yes, Skiffy's Schedulebot shows the 10:00pm slot, but they've goofed before.... so, I'll stick with 9:00 p.m. as long as the ads say it. If the schedulebot is correct, they'd better correct their ads or else they'll have a lot of people going "WTF?" when they tune it at 9pm and get Flash Gordon (which, to me, doesn't look all that enticing but I'll try out the first episode). Personally, I'd refer the 9pm slot so I can just turn off the tube at 10... ;)
