• no way can i afford a bolt holding one of the chevrons to the stargate. :p

  i hope this money made, though, goes to funding the 3rd sg1 movie and the 1st atlantis one...

• While it is true that many of items in the first live auction went for thousands of dollars, there were several lots that went for as low as 50 dollars. There is something for everyone's price range.

• SG-1 and Atlantis are over there is no way they will ever make a new movie of either. Maybe just maybe they will for SGU and finish it up after that I believe that will truly be the end of Stargate.

• I have to agree with addysdad. The chances of seeing any more SG-1 (much less Atlantis) are very low indeed. In retrospect, I think three mistakes were made through this franchise : -

  1) SG-1 should have ended at the end of season 8. What became season 9 & 10 should have been a seperate series ("Stargate Command") - or even better, a run of movies.
  2) Atlantis should have been given a wrap up season.
  3) Stargate : Universe should never have been greenlit.

  After 3 episodes I knew SGU was going to be cancelled. Brad Wright called it "a calculated risk". I call it "p***ing the franchise down the toilet". Release a $35m theatrical movie based on SG-1 - now *that's* a calculated risk! It could work, might not, but it would have one hell of a shot at it. As it is, we got to watch the franchise die slowly, by a thousand cuts. Great.

• Wouldn't if make much more sense to keep the props if you going to make some movies? Its like saying your planning a road trip but selling your car the next day. I understand that they can remake these props because their selling them for much more than it cost to make them, but cutting the gate up in little bitty pieces is like a punch in the gut.

• Again, understandible but very sad too.

• I actually bet it's fairly cost prohibitive to use the old props, special effects-wise. If they do the movies, I wouldn't be surprised if they did it Sanctuary-style (All CGI sets) since the original sets for both shows were taken down.

• I would LOVE to get something in this, unfortunately I couldn't justify spending the money on it right now. Pity. But as has been said before, I'm glad these are going to fans and collectors rather than being tossed out.
  I would be very and pleasantly surprised if they make an Atlantis movie. Just because if the SG-1 movie is about the Gate going public you wouldn't really have to build any major alien or Gate centric sets. Also a pity. Hoping for a SGU movie and for the franchise to continue. Twould be a sad world without Stargate.

• I think i am going to hold off until they auction one of the F302s or F304. I think the Odyssey would look pretty awesome in my driveway...

• You must have your own zip code ...
