I'm sorry did we watch the same show? The Tok'ra existing proof that the goa'uld are not intrinsically evil, hell even the Jaffa disprove that.
And the show highlights multiple times that the military is not some infallible hero, sure they succeed, but they make mistakes???
It sounds like they were trying to, but you can't make Stargate today. The heroes are the US military, and the villains are an ethnically diverse group of aliens in human bodies who posed as the various gods of human cultures in antiquity. The one group of aliens that also posed as gods but were benevolent rather than intrinsically evil - and the Goa'uld are intrinsically evil, as is made explicit - posed as the Norse ones.
That's why Stargate has remained untouched while every other franchise is defiled. Too much of the basic premise is fundamentally incompatible with modern Hollywood. There are too many uncomfortable implications.
Seems to me that higher ups got a whiff of what kind of show they were trying to make, and that show being Stargate, put the kibosh on it.
The "fresh new direction" they want to go with instead will have to be utterly unrecognisable. Stargate Universe is the direction Im sure they'd like to go in, but they already made that before the era of "modern Hollywood", and it was universally panned.
There's no getting around the good guys being the military and the bad guys being evil on a genetic level, so the whole premise is anathema. Stargate future-proofed itself, and with 15 proper seasons and 3 films, there really is no need to revisit it. I can continue, as I have for the past 30 years, just regularly rewatch what we already have. Because it's awesome.
In Washington D.C., taxpayers who don’t drive on the road are increasingly subsidizing those who do, and it’s not sustainable.
See how dumb this sounds

The Pentagon's Departmental Autonomous Warfighting Group (DAWG) was formed late last year with a $225 million budget. For 2027 they are requesting $54.6 billion. DAWG intends to unify all US autonomous operations under their command; land, sea, and air.
@AllThingsCivil Part of it is probably the right's deep hatred for teachers (mostly their female teachers too), they grew up hating them and want to take it out on them now that they're adults.
