This week's episode is the first half of the mid-season finale! The Storm is the episode that officially hooked me on SGA. Atlantis must be evacuated as a giant storm approaches and efforts to save the city make its corridors dangerous. As if that were not enough, the Genii seize an opportunity...

As always, comment below on what you enjoyed about the episode. Feel free to watch and comment on older episodes too :)

It seems [livejournal.com profile] mezzo_cammin and [livejournal.com profile] melagan noticed an interesting "little" detail while rewatching "The Storm" (1x10). I'ma just gonna leave these caps here for all y'all to peruse at your leisure.

It appears there's more than one reason TPTB asked JFlan to wear unners during filming.

And it's not the rear view this time... )

Ahem! *cough*

For more on this subject see Snug by [livejournal.com profile] esteefee. She explains everything.

Dear Diary,

Today sucks like Hoover on steroids. There's a massive hurricane coming, McKay and Zelenka think they can get the shield running, the city -- my fucking city -- is in serious danger, and now there's some asshole holding my people hostage, trying to kill me, threatening to kill Weir, and he thinks he can take this city and run it himself.

"Not a negotiation"? No, it's not, you fucker. You'll wish it was.

Despite Weir and Sheppard's efforts, no, this is not a negotiation; it's torture. But notice how McKay still leads with his chin. Gotta give the guy a lot of credit.

Now it's a negotiation, as Sheppard -- loaded for Genii bear -- plays cat and mouse with Kolya on the catwalks of Atlantis.

Rodney McKay: arrogant, petty, smug, bad with people, total smartass -- and absolutely terrified but rolling with it anyway.

I think that's how he defines courage.

Thanks for the intel, Rodney!

(Maybe not all of Sheppard's backup is stuck in a jumper on the mainland...)

No, Dr. Weir, this is not a negotiation. (But you do have the smartest man in two galaxies standing next to you.)

Yes, going into week two of The Storm; even with the occasional picspam, there's just too much goodness for one week.

Sheppard's trying to mount a rescue and save the city, but his only backup is stuck on the mainland.

Genii in the gateroom! Introducing Acastus Kolya, one of the better villains of SGA because he developed as the series progressed instead of being a one-note bad guy. He was always a bad guy but he had reasons and those changed as his needs and circumstances changed.

As Robert A. Heinlein once wrote: "For every fine cat, a fine rat." I'm sure John Sheppard would have been glad to do without this rat.

One of my favorite exchanges between McKay and Sheppard, as they prepare to disable the grounding stations. I love how McKay so casually jerks Sheppard's chain.

SHEPPARD: Wait, wait, wait a second. Are these things even close to a transporter?

McKAY: Uh, yes, Elizabeth's is.

SHEPPARD: And mine?

McKAY: Uh, it's a brisk walk away.

SHEPPARD: And by 'brisk', you mean ... 'far'.

McKAY: By 'walk', I mean 'run'.

In the immortal words of [livejournal.com profile] gaffsie: "I'm pinching your head!"

The coming storm...

Major kudos to the SGA art department. They did awesome work creating digital visuals such as this one.
