In all seriousness, I didn't have much excitement for The Dark Knight. I loved Batman Begins, and I was more excited for this sequel a few years ago. However, I have to say this: any expectations I could have had, it absolutely blew them all away. Stephanie and I spent AN HOUR after the movie talking about the details and I know that there were many themes and examples that we didn't touch. Talk about a cerebral superhero movie. For the kind of movie that it is, it is in a class by itself. Just...shit man. I need to see it again.
SG-1 was cancelled today.
theemdash broke the news to me on a 10 minute break at Borders, and, I swear to God, after she told me I swear I felt like I had just been told somebody died. Gateworld gave the sad confimation. Sci-Fi soon sent out a press release on their Sci-Fi Wire. But as the fans are, they are not going to take this treatment lying down, nor will Robert C. Cooper.
Fans have already started organizing.
There is a Bring Back SG-1 petition. As of this posting, it has 2,429 signatures. This isn't enough, of course. There needs to be more.
A group on GateWorld has started the Tissue Box Campaign.
More things are in the works. People you might be interested in following are

The Solutions Blog has all the addresses one needs for writing complaints and letters of support.
The whys of this...well, I was speculating before (and others have speculated as well), but I don't really care about the why. The why doesn't matter. What matters is the what: What are we, as fans, going to do about this.

Gateworld has reported the ratings for "200" and "The Real World": 1.9 and 1.8 respectfully. That's one heck of a boost.
