More Stargate Atlantis Quotes

And now more quotes from Melissa and I's Stargate Atlantis marathon.

"Poisoning the Well"
Hoffan Governor Man: "Major Sheppard, I think you'll find this intriguing."
John: "I'm intrigued. What is it?"

John: "Do you have any idea when that will be? Morning? Afternoon?"

"Underground"
Rodney: "Maybe we should offer a sense of humor in trade."
John: "Sure…they can have yours."
Rodney: "Ah hahaha oh please my side…you slay me."

John: "Have you ever tried to clear a stump by hand?"
Elizabeth: "Yes, it's a hobby."

Rodney: "You don’t know what strange means?"
John: "I know what strange means Rodney."
Rodney: "weird, freakish…odd—"
John: "I’m just trying to determine whether it’s worth getting off the route back to the village."
Rodney: "pretty accurate reading of the Amish world…your call. We’re lost anyway what difference does it make?"
John: "I am not…lost…Alright…lets check it out."

Elizabeth: "No. How's that for an answer."
John: It's pithy. I'll give you that."

"Home"
John: "Eight hundred and four years."
Rodney: "What?"
John: "That’s how long it will take us to come get you by Puddlejumper."
Rodney: "But you would do that, right?"
John: "Of course we would."

John: "Yeah. It seemed like you were having fun. Hours and hours of fun."

"The Storm"
Elizabeth: "Did he just say weather forecasting?"

John: "This is Atlantis, it's gotta be able to handle that."

Ford: "How could something as big as Atlantis just sink?"
John: "I bet the passengers of the Titanic were thinking the same thing."

Rodney: "Despite what you all may think, I'm not Superman."
John: "Was anyone actually thinking that?"
Ford: "No, sir."

John: "Are these even close to transporters?"
Rodney: "Elizabeth's is."
John: "And mine?"
Rodney: "It's a brisk walk away."
John: "By brisk you mean far?"
Rodney: "And by walk I mean run."

"The Eye"
Carson: "I'm a bloody medical doctor, not a magician!"

John: "Kay, what would McKay do?"

Carson: "Are you telling me to shut up again?"
Ford: "Again!"

John: "What the hell took you so long?"
Ford: "Well there's this storm --"
John: "Hold that thought."

SCENE: Foursome Walking down corridor
Carson: "What kind of plan is that?"
John: "A Rodney McKay kind of plan. It's all we got."
Ford: "Which means there's only one place to go..."
Teyla: "Where the Genii will also be."
SCENE: Grounding station three.
Rodney: "Now the control room and Stargate operations are shielded. But the rest of the city…once lightning starts to hit."
SCENE: Foursome Walking down corridor
John: "Anybody left in the hallway…is as good as dead."
I really like how this conversation bounced back and forth between the two roups conversing. I think it was really effective and it was more interesting that exposition with all the charcters in one place.

Rodney: "I don't know if you noticed or not, but I'm a very arrogant man who tends to think all his plans will work."

John: "Sorry 'bout that, I had to uh- You alright?"
Elizabeth: "No."
John: "You will be."

Rodney: "Did you ever doubt me?"
Elizabeth: "Yes."

John: "They say these things happen every 20 years, right?"
Elizabeth: "That's what they tell us."
John: "How far in advance can we book days off?"

"The Defiant One"
John: "This is why parents get someone else to teach their kids how to drive!"
Rodney: "I am both insulted and touched by that."

ELizabeth: "Major?"
John: "I agree with McKay."
Elizabeth: "Of course you do! How could either of you resist exploring a crashed alien spaceship?!"
John: "Exactly."

John: "If we play the waiting game then the guy that's been around for 10,000 years is going to win."

Rodney: "Major, what was that?!"
John: "I almost blew myself up. Stay off the radio, I'm busy."
Rodney (to Gaul): "He's busy."

Rodney: "Major!"
John: "McKay!"
Rodney: "What do I do now?"
John: "Keep firing everything you’ve got!"
(Rodney fires at the Wraith as it walks towards him. The wraith is not slowed much by the bullets. Then McKay runs out of ammo.)
Rodney: "OK, what now?!"
John: "Reload!"

We've actualy watched all the way through to the episode "The Gift." The only episodes of season 1 left for Melissa and I to watch are "The Gift," "The Siege Part 1," and "The Siege Part 2."

And So It Begins...

My first Script Frenzy post with substance.

First I'll start by putting in the notes I took while wathing Stargate Atlantis last night. Melissa and I watched "Rising," "38 Minutes," and "Suspicion" last night. We skipped " Hide and Seek" because that episode skips on my DVDs.

"Pilot"
Jack: "In their...flying city?"
Daniel: "What?"
Jack: "Flying city."

John: "What's it feel like?
Ford: "Hurts like hell sir. (beat) Woohoo!"

Sumner: "Go to hell."
Wraith Queen: "Earth first."

"38 Minutes"
Rodney: "The cockpit is regrettably demolecularized at the moment."

"Suspicion"
John: "You took a blast from one of those stunners to the fae."

Ford: "Oh, you're just checking out the planet. That's cool. I got better things to do than cruise around the planet in a spaceship."

Bates: "I cant imagine it's be any worse than their homeworld."
McKay: "That could just be failure of imagination on your part."

Teyla: "It would be better if I went alone."
John: "You will be alone...with Lt. Ford."

Script Frenzy Warning Post

Dear Anyone Who Reads This Blog,
I apologize in advance for what you are about to have to endure (unless you just choose to stop reading my blog). Let me explain: Script Frenzy. I have already stated that I wish to participate in this endeavor (http://gotnothin.blogspot.com/2008/03/break-time-when-you-can-do-what-youve.html), but I don't feel that I've properly shouted it from the rooftops of my blog.

I AM DOING SCRIPT FRENZY IN APRIL. I WILL WRITE A 100-PAGE SCRIPT IN APRIL!!

</capslock abuse>. Now that I've gotten that out of the way I feel that I need to explain a little more about what this means for my blog. During the month of April I plan on posting more than I did in November when I did NaNoWriMo. I'll try to do, at least, weekly page counts. If I'm good I'll also post about character problems, plot holes, daily frustrations, and notes I'll be doing beforehand.
So, to sum this up. My blog is going to be taken over by Script Frenzy, just as in the past it has been taken over by Stargate SG-1, Supernatural, NaNoWriMo, Stargate Atlantis and probably Psych when there are new episodes for me to comment on and weeks to wait before new episodes.
What is this warning for anyway? If you read this you're probably already used to my obsessive behaviors.
My Sincerest (Early)Condolences,
Meg

My goal for tonight is to start an epic Stargate Atlantis marathon, not because I want to watch Stargate Atlantis (never! ), but because I want to take notes while watching on funny or effective lines or plots. That way I can better see what I like in tv shows.
And also because I really, really want to have a Stargate Atlantis marathon.

Are you Lost??

Get Lost.

Happy Pi Day!

Today is Pi Day. That's right: 3/14. And at 1:59 it will be perfect! 3/14 1:59. It's based on the number pi 3.14159.

Break Time: When You Can Do What You've Been Doing the Rest of Class Without Missing Anything

Yeah, so it's break time in the middle of Web Dev 2.

I will be doing Script Frenzy. I downloaded Celtx last night and I wanted to test it out so I typed in some random stuff and it was a lot of fun. I ended up with three lines of dialogue and two character. w00t! I've always thought that my problem with writing is the dialogue (it's always felt like a weak spot), but I think my realy problem is fitting dialogue into prose. I suck at prose. So maybe I'll be writing my future fanfics as scripts instead of prose.

Well, Sometimes I Actually Get Things Done

I feel very accomplished right now. Tonight I have gotten so many things done. Here's a list of things I've done in the past 2 hours:
Edited and Submitted a Paper
Washed My Dishes
Cleaned Out the Inbox of My School E-mail (it really needed it)
Put Away All My Clothing
Changed the Sheets on My Bed
Made My Bed
Scrubbed the Shower Curtain (it was getting icky)
Switched the Floormat in the Bathroom
Cleaned Up The Floor of my Room
Recycled A Bunch of Stuff That Was Hiding Under My Bed and On The Floor

As I type now I'm trimming my nails, and I'm going to paint them. Then I'm going to make a web site. I want a site that I can use to apply all the things I'm learning in Web Dev 2, and possibly Relational Database and Web Applications too.

So yeah, I'm doing pretty great right now. A couple of nights ago (or maybe last night) the guys on the second floor were having shove fights (friendly). There were trying to shove each other to the other end of the hallway. Corey filmed some of them, and was planning to put them on YouTube in an East House user account that he'll create. Once I know where they are I'll link to them. Carissa participated and I joined at the very end.

Oh yeah! I want to do Script Frenzy this year. I've never written a script before, but I've wanted to. So I think Script Frenzy will be the perfect time to give it a shot. It's like NaNoWriMo. The goal is 100 pages (or more) of a Script in one month (April). I think it'll be a lot of fun.
