Maybe, just maybe if enough people ask for it, MGM might allows their fans to watch the excellent fan film series, the makers still have the films, but until MGM say they can put them online they only show the series at Christmas and special gatherings ;) |

Call it a Stargate is the first fan series started in 2004.
Synopsis
Production
Shot with zero budget on a handheld camera the series quickly grew with viewers all over the world, millions watched this new fan series and even the actors in the sg1 show watched it.
These were made to honor the real series and were comedies which made them really fun to watch.
Sadly MGM was going through a rought time with it's own SG1 show and infact it was canceled but then picked up again by the sci fi channel. While the MGM version was going down and getting bad reviews online, the fan series grew and had website talking about it instead of the real show, this angered MGM and they forced the fan film series to stop.
Ofcourse MGM only wanted to stop this series but have allowed many more fan films to be made about the Stargate universe.
The makers of the first ever fan film never finished the 6th episode called Fighters.
The titles were.
Call it a Stargate ep.1 It's Major Tom's first time through the gate as they travel to LV414 a planet where the humans have de-evolved into prehistoric animals.

Breakdown. ep.3 While on a planet looking for Major Tom, Daniel is caputered by Boyd, an Alien who wants to kill all humans, Jack and T'cup take SG2 to rescue him.
Openday ep.4 Because the Ga'uld ship crashed down to earth in ep.2 people were talking about it, SG command had no choice but to tell the world about the stargate programme, they hold an open day where people can look at the gate, an error happens and the gate activates sucking in the innocent people standing around it, Daniel and hammond are also sucked in to a strange world
Atlantis ep.5 Jack tests a new team to see if they are good enough to go to Atlantis, they pass but something goes wrong as they go through the gate, they end up on another planet which seems to have Germans from the 40's there.

Fighters ep.6 (not completed)
Maybe, just maybe if enough people ask for it, MGM might allows their fans to watch the excellent fan film series, the makers still have the films, but until MGM say they can put them online they only show the series at Christmas and special gatherings ;)
