              Better, you can just get in your sarcophagus and have all your health problems fixed in a couple hours… except for the inevitable psychosis.

              The whole Goa’uld ‘snake alien’ thing wasn’t even in the movie. Ra was just an alien in human disguise.

              This was Ra’s true form in the movie. You only see it for a moment at the end:

              Also, have you noticed that they all speak English on all of those different planets?

                In fairness, they do the language barrier thing in a few of the earlier episodes, but it’s a TV show. It would get very tedious if they did that every episode.

                  And they would have to have a new language for every planet and Daniel would just be constantly translating.

                  But they could have at least thrown the fans a bone. Oh well.

                  You could lampshade it by saying that the stargates clear them of dangerous pathogens.

                  To be fair, you’d pretty much need that to have a multi-planetary stargate system.

Welcome to the News community!

Rules:

1. Be civil

Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.

4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.

Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title.

7. No duplicate posts.

If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.


8. Misinformation is prohibited.

Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.


9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.

All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description.
