GateWorld Podcast: Stargate vs. LOST



by Darren Sumner

Visit the GateWorld Podcast page for more about the show!

When is a Stargate like an airliner crash? How does Destiny mirror the island? In this week’s podcast we’re putting the Stargate franchise (and particularly SGU) up against one of our other favorite science fiction series, LOST! GateWorld’s Darren and David talk about SGU and character-centric storytelling, flashbacks, and inner conflict and external threats.

We’ll also give our take on the (somewhat controversial) LOST series finale, and why we found it so satisfying. (If you haven’t seen the end of LOST yet, do beware of spoilers.)

(For our previous “Versus” shows, check out Stargate vs. Star Trek and Stargate vs. Battlestar Galactica!)

We’re taking the week off next week as David heads to Vancouver for Gatecon! We’ll see you in two weeks for the first of our final three shows of the summer.

SFX Issue 198

24/06/2010

Our blindingly early 2011 preview, Inception and a look back at Firefly in the stonking new issue

Profiles

David Blue talks about his role as Eli in Stargate Universe and his hopes for the evolution of the character; Paul Cornell talks to Rob Williams about his new contract with DC on Action Comics, and Pixar good luck charm John Ratzenberger talks about his rise to fame through appearances in The Empire Strikes Back to his latest Toy Story 3.

Shhh, it’s Inception

The trailers for Christopher Nolan’s Inception are leaving everyone with questions. Well, here’s a set of 20 things you need to know about Inception to get you started before the film’s release on 16 July.

2011 Preview

With the rest of 2010 (Inception and Tron aside) looking like a washout we take a look at 2011’s top 11 films, with Thor, Captain America, The Green Lantern, and more. It’s everything you need to know about the next 12 months at the movies and everything you’ll want to avoid (Stretch Armstrong anyone?)

The Summer Of SF Reading

The third and final part of our look into the 100 greatest SF and Fantasy authors around, with a special on William Gibson’s Neuromancer, and this month’s Book Club Lord Of Light by Roger Zelazny.


... Retro Features

We rewind back this issue to 2002 for a look back at the tragically short lived Firefly, taking a look at the best episodes, the best quotes, and delving into some little known trivia about the series. We also use our Time Machine to take a look at Sam Raimi’s 1981 video nasty The Evil Dead, with Bruce Campbell revealing some interesting facts on the creation of the film.

Don’t Miss:

Wishlist: Avatar 2 – We break it down for Cameron here, and tell him what he needs to do in Avatar 2 (and what NOT to do), to make it a great sequel.

Spoiler Zone: Ashes To Ashes! Doctor Who! FlashForward! Fringe! Lost! Medium! Smallville! Stargate Universe! V! Oh my!

Big Shot: No Ordinary Family – the spiritual successor to Heroes, taking a Fantastic Four style approach to the superhero drama. Only right that it stars Michael Chiklis then.

* Merlin season three heads up this month’s Red Alert. Just tell Arthur your ruddy secret already!

* Although season five should have been the end for Supernatural the fact that it’s: a)brilliant and b) incredibly popular means that we have a whole bonus year with the Winchester Brothers to look forward to. Eric Kripke and Sera Gamble talk about the future of the show.

* Stargate Universe season two is filming as we speak! SFX has news on the latest addition to the cast – new villain Robert Knepper.

* Andy Diggle takes on Daredevil in this summer’s Shadowland crossover mini-series.

* Luke Skywalker himself Mark Hamill gets behind the camera for the movie adaptation of his comic book The Black Pearl. We speak to the former Jedi.

GateWorld Podcast: The Ideal Universe

Tuesday, February 24 (FEATURES)

Darren and David talk about what we hope the third Stargate series is like.

As we count down to this fall’s big premiere of Stargate Universe, Darren and David stop to consider just what we want this new show to be. What will make the show a hit — with fans and non-fans alike — and move the franchise forward? Is arc-based storytelling really better than episodic? And what does it mean to “take risks?”

We’ll also give you a quick recap of the latest Stargate news, and hear what listeners have to say in the mailbag segment.

WARNING: This episode does have some spoilers for Season Three of LOST and Season Three of Battlestar Galactica. If you haven’t been watching these shows in recent years and plan to, beware that we will talk about their major plot shifts.

Lost - TV Verdict: Q&A With Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse

At TV Verdict:

(Please follow the link for the complete article.)



Q&A with LOST show runners Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse

December 2nd, 2008 by Michael Stailey

It’s always a treat to sit down with Damon and Carlton. Not only are they adept at breaking great stories, but they can work a crowd like nobody’s business. This morning, Walt Disney Home Entertainment set up an online chat with Bad Robot’s dynamic duo regarding next week’s release of Lost: Season Four on DVD and Blu-ray. The amazing thing is that they were surprisingly forthcoming about what we can expect from the show’s final two seasons. This isn’t a spoiler-laden discussion, but there are enough little nuggets to keep Lost fans hungry for that January 21 premiere.

Oh, and while the chat was going on, Disney shared two of the Season Four set’s many bonus features. One was Damon and Carlton doing their deadpan Abbott and Costello routine on the subject of flashforwards, and the other a History Channel inspired investigation of the truth behind the Oceanic Six.


A brief excerpt:

Q: It seems that the next season will have stories set in two time frames. Does this mean that you have to outline the story of the season in advance in ways you never did before?

Cartlon Cuse: Our approach to the story telling changed drastically once we were able to negotiate an end date to the show. Before that we didn’t know if the mythology had to last two seasons or seven seasons. Once we knew there were only going to be 48 eps of the show left we were able to start charting out the remaining journey. We approach it on three levels. First we have discussions about the uber-mythology and plant the big landmark events in rough locations. Then at the end of each season we have a writer’s mini camp where we discuss the arc of the upcoming season in great detail. Then we break each individual episode and see where we end up at the end of each break. We give ourselves a fair about of latitude to listen to the show and react — writing more or less for various characters or situations depending on how they play.

Q: Watching Season Four in one sitting on DVD, do you think there’s a break in style between the pre-strike and post-strike episodes?

Damon Lindelof: Hopefully not, Charlie. The fact of the matter is that we designed out — at least roughly — the entire sixteen episode season… planting flags as to what would happen where in the grand scheme of things. In that original design, there were a couple of episodes focusing more on the Freighter Folks (Faraday, Miles, and Charlotte) that got pushed into this season, but more importantly, things like Jack’s appendicitis and Keamy arriving at New Otherton and killing Alex happened SOONER than we had planned due to the collapsed schedule. I think if there’s a sense of separation between the first eight episodes (ending with “Meet Kevin Johnson”) and the final six hours, it’s that the story is really moving at a much higher rate of speed than we’re traditionally accustomed to.

Supernatural - Ed Martin TV Buzz: 'Supernatural' Soars on its Masterful Mythology

At Jack Meyers Ed Martin TV Buzz column:



"Supernatural" Soars on its Masterful Mythology

By Ed Martin

Why doesn’t the mainstream television press pay more attention to The CW’s Supernatural?

The occasional story about this four-year-old franchise appears from time to time, but from its humble beginnings back on The WB, Supernatural has never received the kind of outsize coverage enjoyed by such genre series as ABC’s Lost or NBC’s Heroes, not to mention The X-Files during its nine-year-run on Fox or the vampire drama Moonlight during its all-too-brief single season on CBS. Fox’ brand new suspense drama Fringe, which continually crosses a moving line between science fiction and science fact, became a media darling even before it premiered and remains a favorite, even though it has yet to prove that it will over time live up to the early hype. (That’s not a slam against Fringe. It’s a perfectly decent series. It may evolve into a great series. But, to date, it is hardly the groundbreaking effort that the media mania surrounding it would suggest.)

**snippage**

Well, I’ve been watching Supernatural this season and I am here to say that this series about demon-hunting brothers Sam and Dean Winchester currently offers the strongest and most satisfying mythology storytelling of any genre show at present. That’s an incredible accomplishment, given the problems that so many series with intense mythologies suffer after one or two seasons. Here’s another plus: Supernatural doesn’t extend its mythology simply by layering mystery upon mystery upon mystery, a storytelling construct first overdone by Twin Peaks, and then by The X-Files, and more recently by Lost and, now, Heroes. (Does anyone understand what is happening on Heroes this season? More to the point, does anyone any longer care about any of the characters on that show?) Rather, Supernatural simply extends and deepens a story that is always very easy to follow, even when the plot turns and makes clear that everything one might have thought one knew about the central characters may not be true at all...
