Which Stargate moments stuck out for the wrong reasons?
BY SEAN FERRICK
UPDATED: OCTOBER 27TH, 2023
Stargate began life as a stand alone film in 1994, starring Kurt Russell and James Spader. It was a wonderful idea about interstellar travel by means of a transportation device. Effectively, imagine if Star Trek was based entirely around the Transporter, and there's something of an idea as to the genesis of the idea. However, from this initial jumping off point, the Stargate universe has become both vast and dense.
Naturally, with a story as expansive as Stargate's, there are bound to be little gaps in logic from time to time. More often than not, these are easily ignored in the run of the show, or explained away. In the case of the movie, several of the points have been retconned out of existence. The idea of Abydos being on the other side of the known universe is quietly brushed away, centralizing all of the action in the series to the Milky Way galaxy (that is, until The Fifth Race).
There are some plot holes which niggle just enough to warrant their place here. Now, take everything with a pinch of salt and enjoy our list!
