I used to hate McKay in SG-1, but in Atlantis he became the most awesome character.
@BlackDiamond27184 жыл бұрын
Well he was overly arrogant plus he had no one to put him in check. Also Sam was able to fix the problems involving the gate radiation and teal'c stuck in the gate. That moved a bit of his arrogance towards respect for her.
@DrZaius31414 жыл бұрын
He was very poorly written in SG-1 (because he wasn't intended as an actual 3D-character). Being arrogant and consistently wrong (plus creepy) is a bad combination. Atlantis puts it into perspective - he isn't arrogant, he just knows how smart he is while also being too insecure not to harp on it. Also, aside from finally being allowed to be correct, he shows other endearing traits.

Rodney was too high strung and considered far too many things dangerous. Like he worries about microbs and dieseases whenever he eats something, despite loving to eat. Unlike air which it can filter it couldn't filter out stuff like that Basically because they read their thoughts/feelings of the user Rodney is far far too panicy for it's calibration. Lucius is too self serving to care about anything but direct obvious threats
@schwarzerritter57248 жыл бұрын
If you made a list of what you are afraid of, dehydration would probably be very low on the list, because that is someone not living in a desert region thinks could ever happen to them. The reason the shield does not turn off, because Rodney has so many other things he is more afraid of, especially in an unexplored alien city in a hostile galaxy. Ifhe became so dehydrated that it tops all his other fears, the shield would probably turn off.
@assemblyrequired73426 жыл бұрын
Zwordsman I never actually thought of that idea. My theory was that the device was brought to Atlantis because it was malfunctioning, and needed to be recalibrated in one of her labs. I also theorize that the shields were created for Ancient infantry to make it more difficult for the Wraith to feed on them, or shoot them with tracking devices. Basically, the fastest way to bring down those shields would kill the soldier outright anyways, leaving nothing to feed on. There also should have been one of each on every starship and outpost for every crew member, again, so the Wraith could not feed on them.

The shield does very much discriminate between different substances (a lot of shields in Stargate do) and it would seem that the shield can also generate traction (otherwise he wouldn't even be able to walk). He could probably drink without any problems if he knew how to properly control ancient Tech
