Well, well, well.
We watch SG1 ... and as of late they've had some that just bored the c**p out of us.
However, every now and again we just sit on the edge of our seats waiting for something to be said ... or done so we can really be annoyed.
Like last Sunday. Gee, what do you know ... Jonas was a temporary pre-cog. And several times Sam had said "the future is..." but thankfully she didn't finish it with the last three key words although they were implied.
Sometimes I really get very annoyed when I watch this show. There was a time with the Darkside and Lightside ... and certain leach aspects that ring true to you know who. Then there was the leech in the similarity tank scene ... does Agursky come to mind?
And one of my favourite bits of all was watching the movie S***g***. Wasn't it just amazing how they had the "gate" with the nice platform and all the nice military men armed to the teeth?
And, don't you just love that upside down pyramid spacecraft...
Of course, these are my own views, but I find myself thinking about them more now knowing that Tor is doing Khai this October.
Of course, the movie folks, for the most part know exactly how far they can go without crossing that fine line ... like putting the right foot over and leaving the left on the other side ... and there are writers who write for the movies ... but that's another story...
I can hear it now ... "Hey, Brian Lumley ripped off S***g***. And if I hear this I will absolutely flip!
Just go check the original publication date which was back in the dark ages of 1981...
However, the Tor book will have in there "previously published as, and the original publication date. And it's being titled Khai of Khem. Brian has dropped the Ancient.
What are your thoughts on this?
NOTE: As I said, these are only my opinions and I an not accusing anyone of anything. We are just talking simularities.
