I'm a huge fan of TV, film, sports (especially the NFL and the Olympics) and travel.

It's Day 4 of post canceled Stargate

And Stargate fans are more united than ever

[LittleMissWanderer @Pass1ngGas]

Just want to say I'm so proud of us. #Stargate fans are passionate, loyal & dedicated. If anything, this unfortunate experience has brought us together & shown me that if we have a will, we'll fight to try & make this happen. I love y'all! #SaveTheGate

🔥 NEW - Stargate SG-1's @MichaelShanks Calls for Fans to Pound Amazon's Social Media!

Following news that Amazon won't be moving forward with a New #Stargate series, the actor who played Daniel Jackson has called on fans to make noise online!

@BaronDestructo Honestly tough call. Each individual cookie might have amazing edges or a perfect molten center. I couldn’t possibly answer without sampling said cookie or at least watching how it breaks apart when splitting it.

[Tom @Tom06601]

We will not stay silent.

#Stargate deserves a future.

@AmazonMGMStudio, @amazon & @JeffBezos listen to the fans.

We're all behind @bradtravelers, @BaronDestructo, @martingero and @MichaelShanks

Tips from Jenny & co. (my notes)
-be polite in your feedback & forget Blair Fetter–write to Peter Friedlander
-mobilize other fandoms–reactions must come from all corners
-centralize efforts–join existing campaigns, don’t start new ones
-remind them the fandom–& fallout–is GLOBAL

Hey @amazon, change your mind on the #stargate reboot! The fans want the original creators to move forward with their vision that will embrace what existing fans love and attract new fans too. Make it happen! We want it, and we’re not going to let you forget us!

[Fandom Pulse @fandompulse]

Doom and Age of Empires creator Sandy Petersen blasts Amazon over their handling of Stargate:

"1) get handed a massively popular IP that spans 17 years of successful shows."

"2) realize it has millions of loyal fans, desperate for more. They are now in their 40s and 50s, flush with money. Eager to teach their kids & grandkids about Stargate."

"3) you could start with this. You are already three steps up the ladder to huge success. The fans will evangelize it, if you don't wreck the IP. Don't believe it? Look how the fans evangelized Battlestar Galactica after its 30 year hiatus. And the initial Dr Who reboot after 15 years."

"4) cancel the project because you want a "new take" that will eliminate all the loyal fans and turn them into bitter enemies."

"It's like an ancient Greek play about hubris."

Why are corporate execs like this?

I started watching SG-1 at age 15. I was the first in the family to start, but one by one they all joined me. Then one day, even my Dad joined. NOTHING on television held my Dad's interest. He never went to the movies. It was the first time I'd ever connected with him in this way. Not long after he started, he came home one day with the first season DVD box set, and the whole family started watching from the beginning. He kept buying the sets, until we caught up with the currently airing show, and then we watched like clockwork as a family every Friday night, with pizza and soda.

You have to understand, that is a CRAZY thing to type out about my Dad. He never did stuff like that. He was tough to connect with about something that wasn't mechanical or construction. I can't think of a single other fun thing he did with us that wasn't what a kid would consider "chores" or "work." My siblings and I treasured those Friday nights like nothing else. It was an entirely new experience, having something like that where he would quote the lines to you in the middle of the day (Teal'c lines were his favorite, especially the infamous "undomesticated equines" line).

My Dad has been buried for almost 8 years now. My oldest two kids barely remember him and the other two never met him. We recently watched both SG-1 and Atlantis as a family. It's been an emotional ride, sharing this with them yet wishing Grandpa was around to share it with them too. My kids ADORE Stargate. My girls have crushes on Daniel Jackson and John Sheppard. My youngest son wants to BE Jack O'neill. They cried when Daniel ascended the first time. They were over the MOON at the idea of a new series in the works to enjoy. I haven't had the heart to tell them the news that the whole thing has been called off.

Save Stargate!

The Expanse went through this with Syfy and the fan backlash was so great, they managed to be picked up by #Amazon and continue the series for another 3 seasons.

If the fan backlash is big enough, they will listen. Get #Stargate trending, let #Amazon know how you feel.

We want what @BaronDestructo and Mr. Gero and everyone involved with the original deal, to be back on the table, and get a green light to start filming, with no oversight or input from your studios and your execs.

My entire timline is #Stargate #Amazon @AmazonMGMStudio

Keep going guys.

Plenty of IPs with loyal fan bases have been ruined and left for dead here's a few.

Halo, Fallout, Rings of Power, The Expanse, Star Wars, Star Trek and so on...

Even Firefly is getting somewhat of a sequel/reboot even tho its animated and not what most of the fans wanted.

At what point do you fix this on going issue with established IPs and their fan bases? You will never ever get what you want as a company #Amazon

You have burned all hope and credibility with most of the fan base for Stargate. Sell the rights for the show to @BaronDestructo @bradtravelers and Mr. Gero or green light the original deal.

We won't stop.

[Nina Infinity @Nina7Infinity]

Hey Stargate Fans please let @amazon and @AmazonMGMStudio know how you feel about them cancelling #Stargate

They MOCK us. They think they don't need us. Let them know what you think of that.

I won't be watching ANY other Stargate that is created without the OG creators /Gero being involved.

I'm DONE with studios SHITTING ON THE FANS AND KILLING IPS WE LOVE.

I’m gonna simply say this: if you are at all interested in a Stargate show with ANY of the original creators/performers involved, now is the time to say something. Otherwise it really will be the end of that chapter forever. Let them know you are THERE

[Bryan Knutson @admajority]

@fandompulse And to them I say:
