I tell ya what!! At the rate I'm watching these episodes I should be done with this blog by like Friday. But I'm gonna stretch this out and TRY to space these out to at least once a week but more that likely I will update every day!! I'm rediscovering my love for Stargate Atlantis and I can't stop myself from watching!! It also helps that all I can do lately is lay around cause I gots a broke leg! Well lets get this started huh?!!.... Once again these are my thoughts and opinions as I re watch these episodes.. These comments and opinions are in NO WAY the thoughts or actions of MGM or the Stargate franchise. Thanks without further ado...
Rising Part 1 and 2
I love the fly over with the jumper and the showing of how the Ancients sunk Atlantis.
Peter Grodin with the first word of the entire series!!
Can I just say mmmmhhmmmm about Beckett in that blue northface?!! Yummy!!
And McKay starting with the petty enviousness about not having the gene I feel like this will be a thing for the show?!
Daniel Jackson getting excited about finding Atlantis I love it another reason for a yummy moment also.
The fly over stuff with the helicopter is amazing!!!
I love the banter between Sheppard and Oneill in the chopper.
Carson being AFRAID of the chair and you can tell Rodney is pissed about not having the gene. And Carson having the funniest lines of the episode!! "I think I feel something, it could be lunch related."
I watched the commentary for this and I like how they was talking if you see the string on the front of the chopper you know it was filmed on the ground. Pretty neat. And apparently them jumping out of the chopper they filmed it like 6 times and Joe and RDA was pissed.
John walking around the base just trying to figure what the crap is going on and everyone else is just going about their everyday work love it!
Daniel TRYING to explain the importance and details of where the Ancients went.
The Canadian joke was great! "He's Canadian. Oh I'm sorry."
Carson trying to be all cocky and be like I saved the day. Then introducing Sheppard to everything Stargate related including finding out that he has the strongest ATA gene of them all!
I tell you if I had the ATA gene I would show off as well!!
Joe in the chair and he said his feet had to hang off like that because he was too tall.
RDA freaking and freezing when he past the stasis pod is a little homage to SG-1.
Awe the little montage of everyone saying goodbye to their families gets me choked up every time.
And here comes the AMAZING Robert Patrick!!
Daniel STILL trying to go is sooo cute... and I don't know if I was told I might not be able to come home if I would still go.
Sheppard and Summner's little tif at the gate is a lead to what type of character that he will be.
There ya go Elizabeth!! You put that Col. in his place!!
Ford and Sheppard and Ford freaking Sheppard out about going through the gate is so cute!
Love Gate travel graphics!!
Atlantis automatically wakes up when Sheppard gets there you can just tell the relationship they will have.
The hologram explaining everything was very clever to get everything out there that you needed really quickly! Good job writers!!
And here we go up to the first roller coaster. Power levels dropping, city could flood, everyone could die.
The Atlantis gate is beautiful!! I love the difference of gates.
John seems like he values Elizabeth more as his commanding officer than Col. Summner. Could spell trouble.
Jinto!!!! He's such a cutie!! And the introduction of Halling!!
Whats up with Sheppard talking to Halling? Isn't the commanding officer supposed to talk? Get your crap together Summner.
Teyla Emmigan Beautiful young lady Rachel.
John talking about Ferris wheels is classic. Then hitting on her in front of everyone?! Get it Sheppard.
Whatsa Wraith?!! If you don't know we wont tell you go home! Yeah we be tellin y'all if y'all go to that old city these bad guys are gonna come all up in here and suck the life outta us like a Micky d's milkshake!
Can we just take a moment to talk about Teyla "Flic your Bic" Emmigan?! " We conqured fire many years ago!" She's just like B!$*h please!
History lesson entitled Athosian 101 aka how all our ancestors died by the hand sucky people!Lets talk up the Wraith soo much that they HAVE to show up when your enjoying time with your buddies! Now from what you've been telling us Earthlings,these Wraith are bad a** dudes, now all we are seeing is ghosts?! Whats the deal yo? I bet some Athosian people are like yeah you did this you little piece's of s&#t!
Meanwhile back on the farm little Joe is building a fort.. Oh sorry yeah back on Atlantis... "We have to leave... We are about to drown because we have too many people here..." And here comes more to add to the guest list. Sweet Jinto!!
Now lets take a moment and talk about the most BEAUTIFUL moment of the entire show... The Rising of Atlantis!!!! The way this is filmed and portrayed is breathtaking!! I sit here and watch in awe and with tears in my eyes at the sheer majesty of this!!! Meanwhile Captain Obvious Sheppard is chillin on the stairs "We're moving.." Here lets go stand on this totally awesome balcony overlooking this amazing city and have our first fight over whos right and whos wrong.
Eww Carson just eww!! Didn't your mother teach you not to play with slimy dead things?! I mean come on!
Way to go John playing Hide and Seek in a jumper. But there you go making a name for yourself!! I kinda want a jumper now!! And I love the naming jokes! Gateship? Puddle Jumper? And there they go... getting flushed out the toilet ring of a gate!!
I think the talking male wraith's are all from China, I mean come on they have rat tail goatees!!
Operation try to get our team back but will probably die painfully is a go. Meanwhile Summner has been invited to dinner with the hot date of a Hive Queen. That red hair is sexy just sayin... Ford why are you randomly placing explosives on the ship you're on? Well Summner when you introduce yourself as a UNITED STATES Marine someone might assume that you aren't from around these parts. Now lets talk about the menu. Get outta my head woman... You aren't my wife... The lovely Wraith queen is thinking about a little road trip to Earth. Also don't you just hate things that play with their food? Yeah me too! And he probably didn't want to kneel, he might have had an old football injury or a hockey knee I'm just sayin! Lets eat... Yummy life force through your chest. Sniper Sheppard to the rescue!! Oh I bet this isn't the last we will hear about him taking the kill shot to Summner. Girl you need a better manicurist! There you go Ford take the head shot! And lets listen to the Queen scream for like 10 mins while everything gets blown up and she gets stabbed by the awesome Sheppard. Well I see a reoccurring plot point by the Queen using that tone of voice about ALL of the Wraith waking up. I could be wrong though.
So they all escape except Summner and Teyla has this whole Wraithy-sense going on.
Ok so you remember that old game Space invaders? I get that feeling seeing all of the wraith darts chillin around the gate. Now I defiantly want a jumper you just think about what you want to happen and it does except the illustrious turkey sandwich. Awesome flying there Sheppard. But then again I don't like these wraith messing up the new baby Atlantis... Congrats team you didn't die!! Lets get drunk!! Bom Chicka Wow Wow Atlantis nights!! Lets not be too sad that Summner cant enjoy it though!
I will finish with this quote...
Carson Beckett M. D.: How come I never make friends like that?
Dr. Rodney McKay: You need to get out more.
Carson Beckett M. D.: We're in another galaxy. How much more out can you get?
Welp there it is!! Rising part 1 and 2!!! I hope you enjoyed it and I will be posting more soon!!

OMG Beckett is the the best! Sheppard Rocks and Teyla is a hottie! I've always loved Stargate and thought of it as the best thing on tv on Friday nights. I would love to see more Stargate movies and series though.
