I'd like it to be a big screen flick - but how can they hope to compete with everything else thats out there. The X Files was a huge, well known show, and their movie pretty much bombed - You think a pretty much obscure, up-until-now cable tv sci-fi series is going to be the most talked about film in a decade?
*snort* you guys have high hopes.
I doubt the current cast are quite 'big screen' material, anyway.
They come across bland enough as it is, i cringe at the thought of them on the big screen.
And unless, after all these years of tight budgets, MGM turn around and throw $100million at the producers, i doubt it will be up to mediocre movie standards, let alone blockbuster, which it will need to be if it wants the chance to make more movies. Everything depends on profits, people.
Now, unless it was something truely different - same basic premise, but a new cast (the regular SG-1 cast making only a small appearence), new direction (the lead in to Atlantis, hopefully), maybe even new writers, it might actually do well.
Otherwise, i fear that its just going to be an extended episode trying oh-so-badly to make it into the big time.
