I'm going to be totally honest...

skoosiepantsThis is simplifying a lot, but...
Okay, so when Mike and the other Wraiths-turned-human confronted Lathon in the woods? I totally thought it was going to be a we're human looking but we still act like Wraith when one of our own pisses us off type of thing. Because it's not like they're loyal to one another. We've seen that enough. And you know what? I think that storyline would've been cooler than the we've stopped taking the medicine and remember thing. Because then they would've been addressing the issue that even though they look human, they still are innately Wraith, and now what do the Altanteans do with them and they're messed up social moralities? Or something like that.
Also, Beckett was a complete idiot the entire episode.
Also, also, I have no problem with them killing off the Wraith-turned-humans. I'm sorry. They're still Wraith, they're still a threat, and it's still war. Probably not everyone's opinion, but eh. *shrugs* The Wraith are pretty evil, and I don't think anyone comes out smellin' like roses in war.

Date: 2006-07-22 05:59 pm (UTC)IMO the only thing that retrovirus should be used for is to weaken them so they're easier to kill. In fact, I think they should've just cut power to the statis pods and jettisoned the bodies into space, but then there wouldn't have been a show.... Yes! I would not have had a problem with that at all, but you're right... the entire ep would've been skipped :)
The whole plan was to let the wraith feed on themselves anyway, so what's the difference in killing a bunch of them?

Date: 2006-07-22 09:52 pm (UTC)The thing is, I think that the entire keeping-wraith-on-the-planet plot was so badly fleshed out that they might as well have just jettisoned the bloody things. I mean, yeah it shows the team making all these moral decisions, but the writers never really show the consequences of that. Next week we'll probably jump to a completely different plot.
