"Stargate" and "Star Trek"

I have watched some of the series and movies of SG1 before, and I always feel that Stargate is very rubbish. After watching a few big interstellar travel movies, I can’t help but tempted to watch a few interstellar travels. I didn’t watch it at the beginning. Things from the 1960s are obviously Not in line with the current aesthetic point of view.
After watching SGU by the way, wow, not bad, and then watching SGA and SG1 after the 7th season, I suddenly felt that Star Trek was much worse than the SG series in terms of setting, storyline, and characters.
First look at the race. Interstellar travel is almost a different race with a nose or forehead. The screenwriter is too careless. Even if the budget is not in place, you can make individual settings. SG is much smarter and writes about the ancients. The creation of interstellar gates spreads the seeds of life everywhere in the universe, so basically the places where there are star gates are humans, and they are all explained logically in English. Of course, there are also Asgardians (I don’t know if Marvel fans see How would LOKI in SG feel haha) Gold clan and so on. There are also other races that sow the seeds of life, such as the Ark of Silicon-based Life in an episode of SGA.
Except for the neutrino star gate which is more reliable than the warp speed, the star gate obviously restricts most activities on the ground, which is much less freedom than interstellar travel. Nevertheless, except for the special effects of the star gate In addition to being much higher than Interstellar Travel, the storyline is also much stronger than that of Interstellar Travel, and Star Travel is often unable to justify it. Of course, both have the common problem of getting everything done when the protagonist is at a critical moment.
Interstellar travel can be regarded as a cartoon, set the simple complexity (creating n sets of alien languages), the complexity and simplicity, there are rules of stupidity, super powerful enemies will always be defeated quickly , I won’t go into details about the clothes and hairstyles that are silly. Of course, don’t expect to shoot an episode in a week or two on how compact and beautiful the American drama that is currently made up can be. Especially in the last episode of Enterprising’s being cut, suddenly a protagonist was written to death, writing for no reason. died. . . . . Fortunately, the chief engineer ran into the SGA and played a villain who was both good and evil.
There are also many soy sauce collections in SG, and it is common to travel through the past and the future. It is just that the main line is relatively compact, and the story logic is tight and the plot is ups and downs. However, every main line set Lao Mei is rated very low. Of course, interstellar travel is also the same. Lao Mei is strange. The taste has caused both dramas to be mixed with a lot of soy sauce episodes. I don't know if Lao Mei came to China to watch TV dramas. . . The series of domestic dramas has to vomit blood to Lao Mei.
3 star gates, as good as the Chinese taste, SG1Interstellar travel is more about expressing a different alien society through stories, while Stargate tells a historical story. Therefore, "Interstellar Travel" is more like a travel diary, and "Stargate" is an epic. Or a slightly weaker epic mixed with some soy sauce dramas. It would be good if it were filmed in accordance with the Chinese series. "Star Travel" was made into a documentary. The story of "Star Gate" without soy sauce would be deeper and more ambitious, without having to add a lot of strange things to cater to the strange tastes of American audiences. Considering the grand background of SG, even if the ancients were almost annihilated by several opponents, even though humans had mastered a little ancient technology, they were still beaten to flee, relying on some foreign aid and provocative discord, hiding, hiding, hiding. It’s a pity that it was born in the United States to survive.
