  1. 1. Who should lead on Destiny?



Recommended Posts

I've been re-watching Atlantis over the last few weeks and have been enjoying it immensely. When it first came out a bit too far afield from the original storyline of the movie, but I've kinda come around to it now. I think the finale was definately rushed, but thats what happens when a series gets cut short.

I'm hoping Universe doesn't end up like Star Trek: Voyager, it got long and boring very quickly.

I'm definitely looking forward to it. I loved StarGate SG-1 and StarGate Atlantis. Both series offered unique storylines and characters that made the show very interesting. I'm sure StarGate Universe will do the same.

Now that Eureka is back to deliver my weekly feel good sci-fi fix, I'm eagerly anticipating the death and darkness promised by the producers of the upcoming Stargate Universe. The wait will be over October 2 when the series premieres with a two-hour episode on Syfy.

Tentatively titled "Air," the premiere will follow a research team that gets cut off from Earth after boarding an Ancient ship with failing life support and a steampunk Stargate. The premiere will feature appearances by franchise vets Richard Dean Anderson and Michal Shanks and will, of course, introduce us to the new crew, including Robert Carlyle, David Blue and Lou Diamond Phillips. (Does anyone else out there have the feeling that LDP is gonna bite it, Robert Patrick style, in the premiere?)

Syfy also announced fall premiere dates for returning shows, including Sanctuary and Destination Truth. Check out the schedule:

Destination Truth ? Season 3 Premieres September 9, @ 9 PM

Sanctuary ? Season 2 Premieres Friday, October 9 @ 10 PM

Scare Tactics ? Season 3 Episodes Return Tuesday, October 6 @ 9 PM

Ghost Hunters ? All-New Episodes Throughout the Fall ? Wednesdays @ 9 PM

Warehouse 13 ? All-New Episodes Throughout September - Tuesdays @ 9 PM [TV Squad]

I love SG-1, but not so much the later seasons. I've not watched any Atlantis.

Question: Should I watch Atlantis, or should I save my time and skip it, just start watching Universe when it airs?

Atlantis is a must watch.

All of this has happened before...

All I can see is voyager mixes with bsg...

All of everything has happened before. There are only so many possible premises for a show or novel, and I'm pretty sure every single one of them has been done in Scifi and fantasy.

So long as its presented well enough and the individual stories are good, I'm hopeful.

    • Surprise! We still can't get it right. With the current state of AI, the crappy software, the huge mega-corporations that back all of these idiot things, I think we are a very long way away from SAE Level 5. I, for one, will never get in one.
    • Nice. September/October GA?! I'll keep following it, but won't install any preview or beta versions.
    • Wow, that could have been dangerous, certainly not ready for these things. They have to be 100% or pretty well close to it. Not that I will see one i doubt, never mind ride in one, they may have them in London, but I doubt they will come to where I live.
    • Nothing kills CMF Phone 2 Pro's successor due to rising memory prices by Hamid Ganji Storage and RAM prices have been rising over the past year, leading to a significant increase in the cost of electronics for customers around the world. Many companies are now revising their plans for upcoming devices due to higher component costs and overall production expenses. CMF is the latest company to cancel the successor to one of its best-selling phones due to rising memory prices. CMF is a sub-brand of Nothing and focuses on making budget smartphones for growing markets. The brand launched the CMF Phone 2 Pro last year with some eye-catching specifications and an affordable price. While many customers may have been waiting for a successor this year, one of the company’s executives has announced that CMF will not release a new smartphone this year. And AI is to blame. As Nothing co-founder Akis Evangelidis announced on X, the company has been working on a successor to the CMF Phone 2 Pro, but with current memory prices, it cannot “build a phone that feels like a genuine step forward at a price that makes sense for CMF.” So, no new CMF phone will be launched this year. Meanwhile, Evangelidis said the company still has several new products in the pipeline, including some in entirely new categories. He added that the Nothing brand will also continue launching new products through 2026. Budget smartphones are among the first victims of the surge in RAM and memory prices, as they have become more expensive to build. The sharp increase in memory costs could also reshape the traditional price ranges associated with budget phones. Apple CEO Tim Cook also recently said that price increases for some of the company’s products are unavoidable because RAM and memory have become significantly more expensive this year. Analysts estimate that the base price of the upcoming iPhone 18 Pro could rise to $1,399 due to current market shortages.
    • Nudge me when they bring back hardware audio acceleration so I can get my EAX 5 back. We've evolved graphics to real-time path tracing, but regressed audio some 15 years back in time with this stupid software audio stack.
