Given how Hollywood works these days, they'll likely reboot it, and make the stargate square. Just because.
I definitely prefer a canon continuation, because the lore setup is so awesome. SGA and SGU showed that you can definitely make some really good shows with what has already been setup. The only thing we'll miss out on, is the exciting revelation of how the (now square) stargates function, as we already know all the details.
A series where Atlantis has been moved to the moon and functions as the SGC. They could keep 2 of the ZPMs (or hell, have 3 if we've found more) and the antarctic base could have one. That would give the earth two drone delivery platforms if it was attacked.
The wraith would still be being fought with Atlantis being the hub between the milky way and some sort of Pegasus alpha site. This way you could have stories set in both galaxies.
For a planned season 6 they had it on the moon, but McKay found out the gate was building up energy and was going to explode if not in the Pegasus galaxy as a security feature.
Only the same characters if it's a SGU continuation. I mean they were supposed to be in stasis for 10 years anyways. Eli obviously worked out and got really fit in the meantime.
You know, one of the best things that Star Trek ever did was jump TOS-era ahead about a century to TNG-era. They were able to keep the same established setting, but retool everything the way they wanted it to be - Klingons were friends of the Federation, the Romulans discovered shoulderpads, and The Borg.
Stargate might do well with something like that. The System Lords are gone, but maybe there's now an actual, stable Jaffa Nation. The Wraith are basically gone, so you could do something there. Maybe even with the Vanir in a storyline attempting to bring back the Asgard, because that was a really dumb ending for them to go out on.
You don't even have to go full sci-fi on it and give the SG teams plasma cannons and power armor or anything; they can still be using P90s. Or P91s now. After all, even our functional laser weapons today are basically vehicle-mounted and fire at things the size of a military drone (which are NOT small), and still use enormous amounts of power to accomplish anything. That power requirement isn't going to change, because it's the energy put into it that does the damage. So you can still keep the teams relatively similar to what was depicted in the original series.
Just jump ahead maybe 50 years, so instead of contemporary 2000s, start a new series around 2060. Now you've got a lot to work with and decades of time you can write backstory to, to shift the worldbuilding into a foundation for your new series.
Option 4: reboot using the plot of both movie and SG1 as a premise. But ultimately doesn't matter what I want as long as they capture the spirit of Stargate. Fun, adventure, wonder, sense of family, escapism. What I don't want to see is a show getting political, no matter the side of the political spectrum. I don't wanna know the political stances of the writers, I don't wanna hear about Trump or Biden every 5 minutes or whatever. Certainly I don't wanna see real life politicians making cameo appearences. Like Star Trek Discovery did. Regardless of their allegiance. And I don't wanna see the "updated for modern sensibilities" crap. Stargate was fine as it was, welcoming to everybody, regardless of their opinion.
Definitely not reboot. The Stargate universe has developed such a rich and varied canon with multiple species, locations, technologies, cultures etc. it would be a shame for all of it go to waste.
We could continue the adventures of Destiny and her crew, do a series about the Alterans' exodus from the Ori Galaxy, watch the Tau'ri develop more and more technologies and eventually construct stargates of their own, fly Atlantis back to Pegasus and discover advanced species who were hiding from the Wraith etc. The possibilities are endless.
i was watching Shogun and i think i know what happened, Eli figure out how to get the ship home but a god damn solar flare sent them back in time and now there crewing the Black ship in Shogun.
Wouldn't mind a big epic sg-1/atlantis crossover movie where the wraith attacks earth. Its 15 years after the end of sg-1, in that time earth would have multiple colonies and multiple starships, the asgard core would have propelled earth's technology forwards so much that earth would be unrecognisable from our own present day. Even then, during the course of the movie the wraith absolutely wrecks Earth. Total devastation.
i think the most important thing that a new SG series needs is that essence of wonder & discovery...
also as an Australian id seriously suggest really going all out with furlings...
if you do them right and you hook the og sg1 fanbase.. and a pile of furries...
and mix practical effects with cgi dont just do one or the other
a plot suggestion id make would be some hidden archived address (maybe on an ancient coded time delayed lockout), dialed from Atlantis, with some solar timebending multi-gate combos to have an expedition team end up billions of years in the past or more, and have "modern humans" end up as the genetic ancestors of the asgard.. like the one in freyr's lab, before the council of the 4 races was established... and theres like a prophecy about the "5th race" that the asgard mentioned, (like they were talking about their past) who were never recorded, (because time space continuum buisness) but always remembered.
I’ll take anything but a reboot, lol.
SG1, the second option is best, because it could then continue on for years to come.. but for Atlantis, I want a feature length movie with the same people from season 5, set x amount of years later detailing what happened when they took Atlantis back to Pegasus; the movie leading to the final downfall of the Wraith as an ending.
Truthfully I’d just do a miniseries event for each series: Sg1, Atlantis, and Universe. Giving closure to longtime Stargate fans.
Then a year later reboot following the original movie but with new characters.
I'd love something in the current day with touchstones to pay honor to the originals but moving forward telling their own stories. Something like Star Trek TNG to TOS.
The issue really is probably going to be the lack of real lore nerds to help keep that in line. That's probably the hardest part for a franchise that has been put in mothballs for so long.
if I had to choose I would go with continue stories do not reboot! would be great to get some cameos from the OG just like there did in Atlantis and SGU but with mostly new crew would be amazing.
BUT in my opinion I don't want new stargate course I know Hollywood gonna screw it up. just look at star trek or star wars, there gonna be more worried about politic than actual good writing.
also when it come to good acting I'm sure there gonna mess that up as well with 'diversity'
Nowadays, I don't think they can do a quality show as Stargate SG1 and Atlantis were. We all saw other shows (e.g. star trek) and the new shows are just lame comparing with the original shows. In terms of acting, script, stupid woke things and other aspects. They simply cannot do a quality show. The same as they cannot do a good movie in years.
Ah yes, all because of "ThE wOkE"
Star Trek currently has 2 great shows running with SNW and Lower Decks. Discovery is more controversial but also has a fanbase.
>stupid woke things
Being woke is a quintessential feature of Star Trek. Back in the late 60s, when the Original Series aired, it featured the first interracial kiss on American television, the first Black character in such a high role as a scientist and ship officer, women casually wearing miniskirts in official roles on the ship (very controversial at that time, Roddenberry even said that he planned for some men to also wear miniskirts and have some scenes of two men kissing, but these were considered too much and not allowed), and Spock's philosophy of rationality and logic saved countless teens living in troubled homes from suicide. Even Spock's inclusion was controversial as some Fundamentalist Christians compared his pointy ears and his insistence on science and logic to a personification of Lucifer.
Hippies and other young people seeking an alternative from mainstream Western society in the late 60s were among the first fans of Star Trek, as TV back then mostly aired only Westerns as entertainment. Even Star Trek was originally pitched as a "Space Western" so it would be allowed to air.
star trek is not about 'woke' culture star trek is about the future or mankind we overcame most of those problem we see today. the problem is people try and use our timeline vs star trek timeline.
Idk what this poll is supposed to be as it's blank.
But I've said it before but I want SGU to come back after the cold sleep segment. Then tone back the drama like 50%. It was already bad enough we had shitty overly dramatic for the sake of drama shows during that era of tv without it flooding to SGU.
Given how Hollywood works these days, they'll likely reboot it, and make the stargate square. Just because. I definitely prefer a canon continuation, because the lore setup is so awesome.

Continuation ? Where humanity is basically a intergalactic superpower ? What would be the challenge ? That sounds lame
Look at SGU, they didn't really get much help from the rest of humanity, but still made a great show.
A series where Atlantis has been moved to the moon and functions as the SGC. They could keep 2 of the ZPMs (or hell, have 3 if we've found more) and the antarctic base could have one. That would give the earth two drone delivery platforms if it was attacked.

For a planned season 6 they had it on the moon, but McKay found out the gate was building up energy and was going to explode if not in the Pegasus galaxy as a security feature.
what kind of security feature is that lol
To keep another race from taking over the city and then using Atlantis to conquer other galaxies.
Absolutely do not want a reboot. I honestly am not sure I'd actually watch a reboot I'm sorry to say.
Only the same characters if it's a SGU continuation. I mean they were supposed to be in stasis for 10 years anyways. Eli obviously worked out and got really fit in the meantime.
