Third SG-1 movie is Stargate: Revolution

No, he didn't actually know about the 1969 mission itself. Mitchell gives the number of how many SG missions there have been over the years, Carter corrects him saying there's one more. Mitchell reminds her he's been reading over them the past year or so, and so Carter informs him that the 1969 mission was kept a secret even from him, leading her, Daniel and Vala making cracks implying O'Neill was Mitchell's father.
Of course, like everything else in 200, this was likely just a joke for the audience and does not represent any canonical value. Especially considering Mitchell later seems familiar with things learned from the 1969 mission, as are Sheppard, McKay, and Rush.
"Full Circle" was a great season finale, but a terrible series finale. It didn't resolve anything save for the destruction of Abydos (which really isn't resolution, since the planet was mostly forgotten during the series). It left several plot strings hanging and intentionally presented up new ones.
I agree with this. When the episode first aired, I was wondering what direction they were going to go in the next season as I assumed Anbuis was defeated and most of the threads were fairly wrapped up.
I didn't mind "Moebius". Mostly because stuff was wrapped up. "Threads" would have been a good finale if they wanted to go out on a story-arc episode. The "Wonderful Life" aspect of "Moebius" was fun to see, though I admit, it can be a bit of a cliche when it comes to series endings.
"Unending" wasn't so bad on its own merits. However, it did stick out like a sore thumb considering the show was building towards something with the Ori arc. Even though I expressed criticisms of "Full Circle" earlier, something along those lines probably would have been better. Then again, from what I read TPTB were pressed for time to come up with a finale.
Actually Carter said there was one more and they weren't allowed to tell him, then Vala asked and they joked about it being that during the1969 mission (not the 1969 mission itself which Mitchell sounded like he knew about) That Jack was Mitchell's father. Then after Daniel and Carter pointed out that they were joking they said they still couldn't tell Mitchell about what the mission he didn't know about was.
How ???
* Anubis still out there with a powerful new weapon
* Daniel fate was left unknown
Lost City with tweaks could of done it to an extent but really Mobeius with alot tweaks could of done it.
Well, the way the scene is done makes it seem that the 1969 mission is the one that's classified to him. In fact, the bio about him on his action figure package says he's read all the SG mission reports except for "one mission in 1969" or something to that effect.
Now that would make sense, as we learned in S6 that Foothold was kept a secret from Jonas, and Hammond only relunctantly let him know about it due to the relevance the holographic disguises had in an episode.
Just re-watched it and it looked more to me like Mitchell knew about the time they went back to 1969, and was only shocked when Daniel noted that he was born exactly 9 months after that incident.
Anderson just doesn't seem to care anymore, and he's terrible fat now. I wonder if his health and bodily capabilites woudl be good enough to pull off another film with any convincability. He really let himself go after leaving SG1.
Nothing. I think all the major story arcs have been wrapped up.
We never met the Furlings.
Never saw the 'result' of 100 days.
...
That's just two off the top of my head at 10pm when I'm usually in bed. I'm sure there's lots more and many places the story could go.
They just need to either bring in new characters, or do the stories before the actors get too old to be believable.

Umm... and you never will...
If we go back and look up every little thing that didn't get tied up into a perfect bow we would need another 10 years of episodes. You have a brain, use it and make up your mind on the stupid little things.
The show could go on forever storywise, but it won't and it can't in the real world. Universe is a failure, it's that simple. The franchise will take a TV break like Star Trek and maybe in 10+ years we will get Stargate SG-1: The Next Gen with an all new team and a few guest stars from the other Stargate shows.
No show in history has ever fully closed up their show unless the last episode had the universe blow up.
Uh...beyond your seemingly personal dislike for it, where are you getting that? The ratings have been great (with renewal, all but confirmed) and the critical reviews have been mostly positive.
The ratings have been all over the map, with 'Justice' the lowest rated episode of the series. Deniers will claim that this is because it aired against 'Monk,' but if SGU is trying for the same audience as 'Monk' was, it's in deep trouble.
The critical reviews I read were pretty tepid, if cautiously optimistic. I haven't seen any critical attention since the premiere. The AV Club never picked it up, which is a shame, since I was hoping they'd savage it.
It'll probably be picked up for a second season, though. It's still fairing better than Atlantis, and I've read online (with all the veracity that brings) that Brad Wright has a two year contract for the show.

I think Monk did play a part in the dip, though the week off and now into December probably didn't help matters much. It is also worth noting that the ratings were ticking upwards in the preceding two episodes. However, SyFy has also been paying close attention to Live + 7 DVR recordings, which has apparently been pretty solid.

In any event, the show is hardly a failure.
