Well this is a hastily cobbled together shit-take of conjecture and misdirection.
The author starts by misreading a grassroots marketing launch as a statement of exclusive intent. Come on. Announcing a series TO a fandom alongside its community leaders is standard PR; it's not proof that the show was designed exclusively FOR fandom. In fact, it was made clear from the start that, first and foremost, the series would function as an accessible entry point for new viewers...while still respecting canon. And, by the way, “Respecting canon” does not mean “requiring new viewers to be familiar with 350+ hours of existing Stargate programming” as this article implies.
The author proceeds to support their point by launching into fan fiction: "No plot details were revealed about the scrapped show, but I can easily imagine…” And they certainly do. What follows is a parade of clichés, a generic legacy-sequel checklist that the author has conjured up from nothing and pinned to the new show as predictive evidence.
Then comes the claim that Starfleet: Academy failed because the showrunners: "focused too much on paying tribute to the series' past.” Uh, wut? Yes, Starfleet: Academy did receive a fair amount of criticism, but strict adherence to canon wasn't on the list of grievances. This reads like a comment from someone who likely never even watched the show, much less perused the fan response.
They state: "Rebooting the cannon also would let the new Stargate showrunner bring back the Goa'uld, the franchise's most iconic villains…” No, it wouldn’t. Know why? Because the goa’uld... ARE CANON!!!!
The article concludes with a disconnected meditation on an old Stargate storyline with no relation to either the new show or the author’s own argument.
I want to say it was written by A.I., but surely A.I. would display more logical consistency than this.
@GateWorld I am glad really. I am hoping for a cameo, but lets be honest unless he is President at this point do we really think he would have made 4 star without a war? Let the man retire and fish.
@WokePreacherTV She is simply repeating what many scholars have said for close 200 years. More importantly it could simple come down to an argument of semantics. I believe Paul wrote them all. Here is one source I used to come to this conclusion https://t.co/78ISRlWkMi
