Talk:Stargate: Extinction

I personally think that the Atlantis expedition will most likely be fighting the Unknown Aliens that was seen in "The Daedalus Variations". I got this assumption from when the article says that it will be more like Continuum than Ark of Truth. This means that fighting the Wraith is very possible, but then it would be more like Ark of Truth and the Unknown Aliens are the only advanced enemy of the Atlantis expedition other than the Wraith.-Railgun88 19:07, 2 September 2008 (UTC)

Title Obvious

ok well going by the title i think its obvious a race of beings is going to go extinct it obviously wont be humans they just couldnt so that leaves the wraith (it would clear things up) the Vanirr or the Pegasus Humans if ive forgotten a race please remind me i thinks thats it though and it wouldnt be a good movie if they created a race to kill them off in the space of two hours so apart from those races the only thing i can think of is the ancientsBlueSquadron ^{(talk) (Contribs)} 20:35, April 16, 2010 (UTC)

Just because the title is extinction doesn't necessarily mean that a race has to go extinct. For all we know, it could be about the Tau'ri or some race FACING extinction, or something like that. It's not like Stargate titles have been known to tie in so literally, after all. :) Byakuya Truelight ^{(talk) (Contribs)} 07:36, April 17, 2010 (UTC)

Actually stargate titles are often very literal. For example: Search and Rescue, The Seed, Broken Ties, Deadalus Variations, Ghost in the Machine, The Shrine... I'm sure I don't need to continue, it would be a very long list. However I agree, it is unlikely that any race is going to be wiped out. Since the only candidates for extinction are: Vanir, Wraith, Tau'ri, Travelers and other humans. I don't think any of them are going to die out. But it is clear that the movie will have an extinction theme.--Uriel718 ^{(talk) (Contribs)} 12:06, May 2, 2010 (UTC)

They may be literal, but they're not specific. You can't guess the plot from any name of an episode. Sman789 ^{(talk) (Contribs)} 17:31, June 5, 2010 (UTC)

Plot Discussion

So with only four episodes left in the final season of Stargate Atlantis, and very little (if any) spoilers released about the movie yet, I thought it'd be a nice time to start discussing the movie. What do you think the plot of the movie will be? Who would you like to see in the movie? What don't you want the movie to be about?

Personally, I'd like to see Aiden Ford return, and be a sort of gray-area-character much like Todd. In the slim chance that the Michael Kenmore that died at Atlantis was a clone, he'd make a great villain. He and Aiden can relate to each other in many ways, and it would add to the teeter-tottering Aiden does when it comes to his allegiances. There's also a lot of tension between Aiden and Ronon which would be great to see come to a head in an epic fight. —Ka'lel 22:58, 25 November 2008 (UTC)

I would like a see a massive Tau'ri vs. Wraith space battle, possibly featuring the USS George Hammond. And the Travelers would be nice too. We haven't seen much of them.—Anubis 10545 23:34, 25 November 2008 (UTC)

Gotta agree with you on the travelers, Katana and Larrin are great characters; even Mila was a neat little supporting character and I like the haphazzard look of their ships. If there is a massive space battle, it's safe to say the Daedalus would be involved, and I'd like to see Steven Caldwell die in some over-the-top heroics. Not because I don't like him, but because he's just about the best established good-guy that still isn't part of the main cast, so his death is plausible without too much impact. Like the death of a certain Tok'ra in SG-1 season 8. —Ka'lel 06:21, 26 November 2008 (UTC)

Yea, seeing Caldwell go out fighting would be pretty bad-ass. He was practically a main character in season 2, but they haven't shown him in Atlantis without having to use his ship for a while.—Anubis 10545 18:11, 26 November 2008 (UTC)

I wanna see the Ancients, mabye a lost ship or something that they find like in The Return, Part 1. Id just love to see a fully powererd Anient warship (hopefully something bigger and better than the Aurora class) smashing a fleet or Wraith, or at the very least Atlantis firing a proper drone swarm.Sman789 18:51, 26 November 2008 (UTC)

That would be nice too.—Anubis 10545 19:12, 26 November 2008 (UTC)

I don't know if a bigger warship other that an Aurora class being shown in the movie is good, but thats my opinion!—Tau'ri 21300 02:05, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

Why do you want the only good charecters in the show to die? You're all mad Sman789 07:52, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

I was just thinking that my same reasonings for Caldwell dying can also be applied to Lorne. Man, it would be epic if he died. Also, I just rewatched Be All My Sins Remember'd, and they instituted "Plan B" for a full week before anything happened. So throughout the Pegasus galaxy, there's the remains of 7 Asuran ship crews just waiting for someone to curiously fly by and pick them up. We could very well see them again. —Ka'lel 08:46, 7 December 2008 (UTC)

The force of an explosion would kill them Sman789 07:52, 8 December 2008 (UTC)

what 7 warships? all of the asurans retreated to asuras when they found out that they were being tracked. then, all the warships that weren't detroyed by the allied fleet were destroyed by the explosion of asuras. unfortunately, the original plan didn't work. if it did, the warships in orbit couldve been taken by the tauri. the 7 hives wouldn't have stood a chance if they desided to take em out aswell—SupremeCommander 06:06, 27 December 2008 (UTC)

I haven't got a clue what you're talking about, I was talking about the 7 warships that were destroyed by the Daedalus before "plan B" was instituted. Granted, the Asurans might be in pieces, but I can totally picture a Traveler ship passing by one of the debris fields of a destroyed Asuran ship to look for parts to improve their ships. They carelessly bring aboard some pieces, the pieces are reactivated, and (just like Niam) the Asurans live on to cause a ruckus.—Ka'lel 16:50, 27 December 2008 (UTC)

oh, those 7 warships, well the first one they destroyed was completely obliterated. they kept firing at the wreckage. i doubt the travelers would pick up the wreckage cuz they know about the asurans and i doubt they'd do something to bring em back. also, i bet that the ships were demolished so yeah..—SupremeCommander 20:36, 27 December 2008 (UTC)

Asgard beams seem to distribute massive amounts of energy around the ship disrupting systems (otherwise thered just be a small hole in the ships,) so all the useful components were probably fried and useless to the travellers anyway. Sman789 21:18, 27 December 2008 (UTC)

I was just using the travelers as an example of how an Asuran (or nanites at least) would be picked up by a passer-by. I think they're more resilient than people are giving them credit for. —Ka'lel 22:13, 27 December 2008 (UTC)

An explosion with enough energy to tear apart a ship as large as the Aurora would probably be able to destroy nanites or at least damage them beyond repair. Besides, could they even be detected whilst offline in space by any sensors that aren't Asgard or Ancient, I doubt even those ones would see them.

the wreckage wouldn't be noticed if they were destroyed in empty space. only if they were destroyed like in the orbit of a planet that was visited by another space faring race or something. and even then, no1 would waste their time in demolished, and completely obliterated wreckage of a ship—SupremeCommander 00:23, 28 December 2008 (UTC)

They might investigate the wreckage, especially seeing as its an "ancestral warship", albeit an older one. Nethertheless the nanites would probably be mistaken for the metal dust scraped off the hull fragments by the explosion. Sman789 00:42, 28 December 2008 (UTC)

it would be cool if the movie was a final battle against the wraith with every single hive, cruiser, and dart the wraith hav vs. all 304 and 302 the tau'ri hav plus atlantis!—Tau'ri 21300 05:51, 8 January 2009 (UTC)

That would be a disaster. Both the battle and the movie's plot. I mean, I like space battles, but that's not a battle... it's a massacre. Maybe something like that would be nice though...—Anubis 10545 06:06, 8 January 2009 (UTC)

Didnt Atlantis replenish their complement of drones?—Tau'ri 21300 06:31, 8 January 2009 (UTC)

Yes, in The Tower.—Anubis 10545 02:22, 9 January 2009 (UTC)

Well, it wouldnt be a massacre if the Tau'ri were able to build more ships w/ Beam Weapons, 302's, Atlantis w/ drones....oh, and the travelers!—Tau'ri 21300 03:20, 9 January 2009 (UTC)

Oh, here is another stupid idea. What if they added Agard beam weapons all over Atlantis and they found a way to fire them w/ the atlantis shields up. And if they also added asgard beam weapons on the puddle jumpers.—Tau'ri 21300 23:52, 9 January 2009 (UTC)

Well, on a slightly sidetracked note, if I was the Tau'ri I'd be installing Asgard beams onto Atlantis while it's still parked on Earth. The only other defence it has is drones, which we can't manufacture, and railguns, which are a bit pathetic. Call me silly, but I'd like a weapon which won't run out after one or two fights. JalYt-Xil-Vimescarrot 13:54, 24 January 2009 (UTC)

Personally, given the name "Extinction" I'm expecting something to do with the Pegasus Asgard. —AscendedAlteran 18:08, 4 June 2009 (UTC)

They could have find another way how to eradicate wraith... --Paeris ^{(talk) (Contribs)} 15:11, June 5, 2010 (UTC)

I just read the whole page and I would like to make a couple points:

1) We know for a fact that Ancient Sensors can pick up deactivated Nanites. Niam was completely deactivated and floating in space and they found him with no trouble.

2) The Travellers suck! They totally cannot fight, I mean, they accounted for something 50% of our losses during the Final Battle of Asuras. And besides, they lost their Ancient Warship anyway and honestly, who wants to see a bunch of "rinky-dink, shoe lace & chewing gum spaceships" flying around in a circle while the Tau'ri do all the work? The best part of the Travellers was Larin in leather!

Also, I don't know if there is anything to it or not, but I have heard a lot of rumors that Micheal Kenmore will be returning. Supposedly he survived the 300 story free fall into freezing waters. Rakata Ba'al 17:01, 4 June 2009 (UTC)Rakata Ba'alRakata Ba'al 17:01, 4 June 2009 (UTC)

W00t for SGA movie! And it'd be nice if this somehow tied for SGU. Or if the 3rd SG1 movie'd do it... :/ Supakillaii 21:45, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

Whatever happened to Dr. Weir's Aurora Class ship? Cause if thats still around it would be pretty cool to somehow link it in... /Wall.e 18:48, 7 Sept 2009

wow you are all really into atlantis lol

I would really like to see Elizabeth come back but thats probably hoping for too much. i also would love to see a new ship. and yea maybe if they tied this into the new SGU series. but what ever

It would be awesome if they came through a space gate and found a huge Ancient shipyard. And then they start turning on the ships and the Wraith come, causing them to have a MASSIVE battle. Introducing a new race would be a good idea (there aren't that many interesting races still alive. Most people they find live in villages). - Also, for another idea, they could find a race with a massive planetary shield. These people would have a Wraith hive in space constantly bombarding them, and the team arrives just as the shields are about to fail. The government of the planet keeps it silent from both the people and Atlantis, and tries to get ZPMs from Atlantis through trade. The team realizes something is wrong and goes to investigate. however, the people of that planet would do anything to keep themselves alive. - i wrote this when i realised that Sg1 plots differ greatly from Atlantis ones. SG1 always seems to find a planet with something fishy going on, and needs to investigate. Atlantis seems to just randomly get captured all the time and has to escape from their enemies.

Internet speculations

According to David Hewlett, a making of the film has not even started: Blog Post —Marius 09:08, 29 Sept 2009 (UTC)

That's not at all what he said. He just said he hasn't been contacted yet, and that was almost two months ago. Whether anything has happened for him since then, I do not know, but I do know that the movie is in pre-production and at the very least the script has been written. Cheers. —Ka'lel ^{(talk) (Contribs)} 15:44, September 29, 2009 (UTC)

I would like to see lots of fights and battles and also i want atlantis to be fully powered with zpm's and also the wraith so they can both put up with a fight. I also want to see Aiden Ford to be back and the ancients to return back to human exsistent because the team has screwed them selves up or the wraith or any other alien are becoming to much to handle it will also be interesting for the azgards in atlantis to return maybe show little more of a twist. i aslo would like to see Samantha Carter to be in atlantis daniel jackson and also general o'neil and big guns and it would be humorus to have vala and colonel cameron mitchelle and maybe jones quinn to help out daniel jackson with the translation of ancient language etc. finally i want there to be more than one atlantis movie sequals because atlantis only had 5 season's and for all time sake go all out with the movies and spesially having a combination of characters from Sg1 and atalntis will sure to make it super good movie and maybe a hit.

if the ancients come back, they should be killed by the asurans. ASDF1239 ^DISCUSSION 08:25, April 17, 2010 (UTC)

Not if they werent responsible, the vast majority of the Ancients had nothing to do with the destruction of the Asurans and are not responsible for such crimes as a people--99.148.26.247 20:36, May 11, 2010 (UTC)

i doubt that most of the lanteans were unaware of the asuran project and its subsequent eradication by a fair-sized fleet. ASDF1239 ^DISCUSSION 12:41, June 5, 2010 (UTC)

Soldiers do a lot of bad things because they are following orders, that doesn't make them all any more reponsible for the attempted destruction of the Asurans than the next person. In that line of thinking, the Tau'ri should go to the Ori home galaxy and shoot horizon weapons at every Ex-Ori planet just because they were responsible for the destruction of many Jaffa worlds, just because they never questioned their orders. (This is not to say the Asurans won't come back and actually try to seek vengance against all Ancients, but thinking from an ethical point of view they shouldn't be trying to kill everyone)--99.141.188.95 20:48, June 7, 2010 (UTC)

Please try to use some punctuation. When you don't, it becomes extremely difficult to read. I'm not aying you should write everything correctly on wikis, (that would be stupid)but some commas or full stops would be nice.(im not trying to be mean) Venators ^{(talk) (Contribs)} 12:30, June 5, 2010 (UTC)

i find it perfectly readable. also, before picking at others' writing conventions, perhaps you should look at your own. ASDF1239 ^DISCUSSION 12:43, June 5, 2010 (UTC)

This movie isnt happening

At the Melbourne Armageddon Expo in 2009, Joe Flanigan, Jason Momoa, Paul McGillion and Christopher Heyerdahl made it very clear to everyone that none of them have heard anything about a movie, and highly doubt that one will be happening in the foreseeable future.

the article should be updated then —ASDF1239 ^DISCUSSION 06:10, February 19, 2010 (UTC)

Well, never say never. I waited almost three years for the Darren Shan movie with very little news and it finally came to the theaters so I think they will make an Atlantis movie at some point. But I agree that the article should be updated.

cast

would this be a good source for cast members —ASDF1239 ^DISCUSSION 03:21, March 23, 2010 (UTC)

No. Confirmed wishful thinking (it's in the article) —Supakillaii ^{(talk) (Contribs)} 09:25, August 23, 2010 (UTC)

That's because I added the wishful thinking bit to the article. Asdf1239 ^{(talk) (Contribs)} 06:07, October 5, 2010 (UTC)

Release 2011 Source?

Is there a source for the 2011 release date? T1Cybernetic ^{(talk) (Contribs)} 19:13, August 22, 2010 (UTC)

It's just speculation, there is no release date yet because at the present moment this movie is in development hell, meaning it isn't happening anytime in the near future. --D Toccs ^{(talk) (Contribs)} 23:27, August 22, 2010 (UTC)

Could the Genii come back? They kinda disappeared but mabye they are attacked or something and come to Atlantis for help... Its probably unlikely but possible, and it wouln't hurt anyone if they got wiped out...CourtneyFANno.1 01:37, September 21, 2010 (UTC)

Goa'uld vs Wraith

Would be cool, how about glowing eyed wraith? GhostlyDeath ^{(talk) (Contribs)} 06:54, January 27, 2011 (UTC)

How about a life-sucking Goa'uld? Jauh0 ^{(talk) (Contribs)} 13:46, January 27, 2011 (UTC)

Not going to happen

Click

That sucks :( T1Cybernetic ^{(talk) (Contribs)} 09:52, February 10, 2011 (UTC)

Some speculation

"Joseph Mallozzi stated: "For what it's worth, it involved a return mission to Pegasus, the tragic end of one relationship, the beginning of another, and a surprising progression in the alliance between one man and one Wraith."" So: 1) Atlantis would have gone back to Pegasus, 2) either McKay or Keller would have died(propably Keller), (or possibly Teyla or Kanaan would have died? Or even Sam/Jack, neither of these likely). 3) "new relationship?" I got nothing. 4) Progression between Sheppard and Todd. 5) Can someone guess number 3? Jauh0 ^{(talk) (Contribs)} 19:07, February 22, 2011 (UTC)

2) "tragic end" doesn't necessarily consist of a death, i'm also clueless about 3 but it could involve a new character introduced in the film ASDF1239 ^DISCUSSION 08:18, February 23, 2011 (UTC)

Yeah, that's what I was thinking about 3, but that makes it unguessable. But if you have a better idea for 2 then go ahead. Death is the only tragic ending I can think of. Jauh0 ^{(talk) (Contribs)} 08:29, February 23, 2011 (UTC)

The new relationship will be ronan + banks :) ... Im 100 % sure of this ;D

Could also be a Sheppard relationship. They never gave him one. Possibly Larrin?
