I always knew T’ealc was a good one.
Teal’c, but close.
One of the actresses that plays his wife pronounces it “Tilk” which is hilarious.
She’s his wife, he doesn’t dare correct her.
Every member of SG-1 pronounces Goa’uld differently.
Teal’c says “go-wa-oold”
Daniel says “Go-ah-oold”
Sam says “Gwa-oold”
O’Neill says "Goold.’
One German commercial pronounced it like TLC, and it’s been living in my brain for twenty-four years.
Thanks, I just wrote it from memory. Haven’t watched the show in a long time
Indeed.
Indeed.
Amazon taking lessons from Netflix. We all saw how The Witcher turned out.
amazon cancelled the new SG series, yea. i dont have high hopes if they took over.
Amazon buys the rights to properties and uses them for chum to fish for viewers. They don’t care about the property or the fans, and when they screw it up so badly that they can’t get even longtime fans of a series to watch, fuck you they’re keeping their chum. See: Wheel of Time.
They screwed it up so badly that the mods for that subreddit would ban people who criticized the show and went on to ban new subreddits (r/whitecloaks gang) created for the purpose. The shadow runs deep in some people.
i wonder if those mods, are also people who work on the show itself.
I’m going to say “no.”
First, I’m going to recommend the Wheel of Time book series as it’s a pretty good read. It’s also a long read, and part of the fun of the series is how things are set up very early on that took years to come to fruition for the reader. The whole series took from 1990 to 2013. There was a lot of speculation on the internet about what a passage meant, and what it could be foreshadowing, and that was part of the fun, but all that material is spoilers now so if you think there’s a chance you’ll read it, try to avoid forums about it.*
Before the first episode of the show aired the showrunner said that he was going to “correct” some of the mistakes the author made. Between that and a leaked draft of the first episode there were some skeptical feelings about the show. Ultimately the show proved the skeptics right. Early episodes were different enough from the books that later plotlines from the books wouldn’t have been possible if the show had continued.
The subreddit ran fine for years until the show. People were cautious about posting [Spoilers through X book], and other posters were good about catching slips in that area, there were threads dedicated to periodic rereads that could catch newbies so they could go through the whole experience from the start, so for an outsider to come in and start tossing bans, and then to track those people down and keep banning them was just one more reason the site as a whole went to pot. It’s just one of the reasons I got to witness.
It’d be a tough series to put to TV anyway given how signifcant minor seeming details can turn out to be later on, even with a team that cared about the outcome of the product. They apparently didn’t have that.
EDIT TO ADD: $RDDT has an interest in keeping large players like amazon happy. I wouldn’t be shocked to find out $RDDT sold amazon a marketing package that included no bad publicity about the show.
- There may still be places where people can swap theories without spoilers.
Castlevania, though.
castlevania the 1st was good, compared the 2nd series. i think it ended on a good note, although being 8 episodes and only 4 seasons.

I thought Judge was playing kratos for a minute and got excited
Now I’m imagining the chuds throwing fits about “woke casting” for daring to cast a black man for the character that’s been voiced by black men for the entire history of the franchise.
I don’t think Judge’s body can handle the stunts these days anyway. I think he’s had some pretty significant surgeries.
They are going to make kratos go to highschool and get bullied
will it turn into another witcher, forcing cavill-like to leave.
Isn’t this a union issue? The writer’s for the gaming industry can’t get in if the screenwriter’s guild doesn’t let them?
I’m pretty sure that could be easily solved if there was actually the will to do it. I think I read somewhere that Amazon has lots of money?
Fact is that they just never have respected writers; just look at that story of Jeff Bezos giving writers his own set of rules on how to write good fiction.
The Last of Us’s head writer and director was the head writer for the game.
Ah yes, Kratos: the god of common sense.
it involves killing other meddlesome gods, so pretty much.
They gonna Halo the fukc outta Kratos
Oh great, he slammed them. That’ll do it.
They saw how bad the last air bender was compared to the source material and said they can do worse
Ryan Hurst was surely made for The Stranger rather than Kratos…
