Stargate: Extinction

[bigdaddy]

Here's my problem if they are indeed wiping out the Wraith. That will make three races (other two being the Goa'uld and the Ori) who have ruled their respective galactic domains unchallenged for thousands of years. Then suddenly the a group of humans from Earth meet up with them and in less than 10 year those races are completely wiped out? I can accept the Goa'uld, and the Ori pretty much had to be completely annhilated given the way they were depicted, but the Wraith? That's taking things unnecessarily too far. After all, Atlantis is now on Earth, and the Wraith are stuck in the Pegasus galaxy presumably unaware of Earth's location and now having no way of reaching Earth. They're no real threat anymore.

That's the problem with the writing of the franchise. Instead of trying to make interesting bad guys like on B5 and even Firefly, they just make them more and more powerful. That doesn't work! In 15 years we find all this crap that has been laying around that other, smarter races couldn't figure out?

At least the Wraith weren't all powerful, I'd even say... god help me, they were a terrible "bad guy".

However if they kill off their main badguy what will Atlantis movies and Sg-1 movies use for bad guys in the future? The replicators?! *shivers at the thought*

EDIT - I'm glad to see most everyone here agrees on the fact that it's lame that humans fixed everything in 15 years.

This title has all the promise of that famous line of dialogue from the pilot of Space:1999: "We're sitting on top of the biggest bomb in history."

...but "extinction" for whom?

Kill off the damn Wraith already. If they wanna be cute about it, they could kill off the human race.

I don't care, I just wanna see Shep again.

It's extinction for us. The Wraith win and the guys on the ship in Universe are the last people from Earth left.

There you go, how's that for a spoiler ?

I heard that they go to Vegas after zombies take over.

Lesbian orgy aliens oh wait bsg out did that with sex clubs

Ah, but they didn't do evil alien Nazi lesbian orgy aliens and hot guy on guy (Shep on Ronon) action!

... Everyone needs to stop pussyfooting around and acknowledge that one of two things needs to happen: regress all the Wraith to human form (a la Michael) or kill them. Regression is effectively killing them anyway - just a hypocritical sop to liberal sensibilities really - so either way it comes down to genocide in the end. Get on with it.

Regression just means the Wraith would die with blue-er balls!

Might as well just kill 'em outright.

Antlantis TV Movie

I really enjoyed Atlantis. My first foray it into the Stargate. Does anyone know if and when the proposed TV movie is going into production as it gone very quiet on this front?
