Friday Five: Weapons We Want
Friday, May 8
We're kicking off a brand new weekly column with a look at five of our favorite Stargate weapons. Post yours, too!
A brief excerpt:
This summer GateWorld is bringing you some brand new weekly features! Every Monday we'll give you a close-up look at a DVD bonus featurette from the 15-season history of Stargate. Every Wednesday it's the newest episode of the GateWorld Podcast. And on Fridays — starting today — it's a countdown of some of our favorite episodes, tech, moments and characters from the shows!
~~**~~**
Subduction Leads to Orogeny's Favorite Five Weapons:
1) Intar
First introduced in Stargate SG1's 'Rules of Engagement,' the Intar are a Goa'uld weapon used for training, as they are only capable of varying levels of stunning the opponent.
2) TER - Transphase Eradication Rod
First introduced in Stargate SG-1's 'Show and Tell,' this weapon was used to primarily make invisible alien creatures from another dimension visible in ours. Later, it was modified to compensate for phase-shifting and cloaking technology.
3) UAV - Unmanned Airborne Vehicle
The UAV was first introduced in Stargate SG-1's 'Enigma' as an airborne MALP. Later, it was modified to carry missiles as well.
2) Time Dilation Device
First introduced in Stargate SG-1's 'Unnatural Selection,' this weapon was designed to create a bubble in space within which time could be either be slowed or accelerated.
1) Sarcophagus
First introduced in the Stargate feature film, and first seen in Stargate SG-1's 'Hathor,' the sarcophagus is capable of curing diseases, healing injuries, reviving the dead, and extending life by thousands of years.

Following is an edited version of our interview with Dunne.
A brief excerpt:
... Now that you've established these characters, are we going to learn more about Will and his history?
Dunne: Absolutely. We are shooting episode three right now, and already we've taken Will to another level. Last season, he spent time getting used to the sanctuary and having his foot in both worlds, but not sure which way he was going to go. By the end of season one, he jumped right into the sanctuary and resigned himself to that life. Now there's a lot going on for Will. Already, he's had to deal with some pretty major things. These things that happen in the first few episodes dredge up some old memories of his past. There's definitely more of a darkness to Will, and he's kind of wrestling with some demons. That's going to be further explored, so what's happening in the present is going to clash with some of the things he's buried. You are going to see a different Will this season. For me, playing such a great character and taking him to another level is challenging and exciting.

A brief excerpt:
This current season has taken a darker route. How has this altered your experience working on the show?
I think if we go dark and don’t justify it, then it’s a little creepy. But what we’ve been doing this year, especially for my character, is seeing him going dark because he wants to protect his family. So this kind of justifies it. Even with that episode ‘Five Years Gone’ where I was going around killing people, it was stuff like that which makes me think the show is in a really great creative place.
Star Trek - Visimag: Cast Interviews
At Visimag:
Chris Pine Interview
It’s the movie Star Trek fans have been waiting for, JJ Abrams’ take on the origins of the Starship Enterprise crew as they meet each other for the first time. Casting the younger versions of such iconic characters was not easy, and perhaps the hardest role to fill was Captain James Kirk, but Chris Pine does a superb job.
A brief excerpt:
JJ has said that he gave the actors liberty to recreate the characters, what qualities about William Shatner did you try to encompass?:
Zachary Quinto Interview
In the new Star Trek movie, which chronicles the early lives of Captain James Kirk, and the half-human Vulcan, Spock, there are two actors embodying the character of Spock, Zachary Quinto and Leonard Nimoy, who has been playing the role for over 40 years.
A brief excerpt:
Did you study Leonard to see how he played Spock?:

A brief excerpt:
JJ has said that he gave the actors liberty to recreate the characters, what qualities about William Shatner did you try to encompass?:
I used the script that Alex Kurtzmen and Bob Orci wrote as kind of my bible, and that gave me my back story in the sense of who this guy was and why he was who he was. I did go back and watch the series, and what appealed to me about William Shatner’s performance, and what I could use without hitting people over the head with a bad impression, were little physical characteristics, the way he moved about the deck of the ship, he’s got a very theatrical quality that made me smile every time I watched it.
Zachary Quinto Interview
In the new Star Trek movie, which chronicles the early lives of Captain James Kirk, and the half-human Vulcan, Spock, there are two actors embodying the character of Spock, Zachary Quinto and Leonard Nimoy, who has been playing the role for over 40 years.
A brief excerpt:
Did you study Leonard to see how he played Spock?:
Leonard and I watched a couple episodes together and talked about his experience shooting those episodes, but aside from that I felt that it was incumbent upon me to determine my own relationship with this character. That was the mandate that J.J. set forth very early on in the process. We were expected to use the foundation as a point of entry into our experiences with the characters.
Star Trek Cast Comments (including JJ Abrams, Anton Yelchin, John Cho, Karl Urban, Zeo Saldana, Eric Bana and Leonard Nimoy):
JJ ABRAMS:
Casting the movie was a huge challenge and we were incredibly luck to find these actors. I’ve never had to cast something that pre-existed it, where the actors have to take over these iconic roles. I said to all the actors, ‘Please do not do impersonations of any of these actors. This is all about you owning it, and the only way it’s going to work is if you are free to do your own thing.’
