Will always love the scene where they're on Apophis's ship, looking down over the shield generator. Bra'tac states that to disable it, they need to go on some long cliche sci fi quest of going through multiple decks, flipping various controls, etc to disable the generator. O'Neill just calmly pulls out a couple grenades and drops them into the generator, destroying it.

That's why the Asgard wanted humans as allies. They had a unique but primitive way of tackling problems everyone else had forgotten.

"What do you mean we just blow up our brand new highly advanced spaceship?"

"WTF that worked?!"

The "O'Neil". Writers were cleverer back then.

Stargate wouldn't be C4, it would be a Zat'nik'tel.

  • one shot stuns
  • two shots kill
  • three shots vaporizes

Full credit to Shanks for asking the important questions how badly designed a plot device it is. "How long between shots does it reset on the same target?"

This (waves P90) is a weapon of war.

I love that the p90 was literally designed to be the opposite. it was supposed to be issued to truck drivers and other support type personnel (and close quarters peace time antiterrorism type stuff).

IIRC the 5.7mm was purpose designed to punch through paratrooper body armor. It absolutely is a weapon of war.
