SGA related post!

Last night, I read a wonderful SGA gen fic:
GEN --> "Ghost in the Machine" by Sholio. Sheppard and McKay are trapped on a world with a malfunctioning Stargate, a monster... and a mystery. Words: 40.000+

And thanks to

yami_tai, I will get my hands on Sonny Whitelaw's "Exogenesis", an SGA tie-in novel, one of the two that I was missing. So now, I just need to find a way to get James Swallow's "Halcyon" and I'll have all the SGA books that have been published so far \o/

The extras for SGA's S5 DVDs have been revealed:
* Showdown! Ronan v. Tyre
* Bringing the Seed to Life
* Tricks of the Trade: Submerging the Stargate
* Joe Flanigan: A Conversation with the Colonel
* Dr. Jackson Goes to Atlantis
* Building a Humanoid with James Robbins and Martin Gero
* The Life and Death of Michael Kenmore
* Deleted Scenes (Part One)
* Stargate Atlantis Goes To Vegas
* Inside the Stargate Costume Department
* Deleted Scenes (Part Two)

But no audio commentaries for Ghost In the Machine, The Shrine, Infection and Identity. No commentary for The Shrine? Really? That pisses me off! It's like with Midway last season, no commentary for one of the best eps of the whole series X( Well, at least we will get one for The Prodigal which must be one of my favorite episodes - maybe even my most favorite one - of the whole series. And with Andy Mikita too! I hope that he will dish out some stuff about Joe Flanigan again XD

And an interview with Joe Flanigan.
Talking about Sheppard's last scene in Vegas -> "It was a dusty moment." XD
Talking about the SGA movie -> "I know that I was at SCI FI [Channel] last week meeting about something else and they were under the impression that we were going to shoot it." I wonder what the meeting was about...
Talking some more about the movie -> "I would love to get back together with my cast and crew and have a good time. I actually think it would be a lot more fun in that circumstance than the grind of putting out an episode every single week."

Oh, and the title of the SGA movie was revealed: Stargate: Extinction! Sounds awesome. I just hope that it'll be a team-driven movie, not yet another relation of their dating habits!

It's so good to talk about SGA again! *bounces*
