Antarctica, helicopters, aliens - flamethrowers?

[scherryzade.livejournal.com]

I just noticed that John Carpenter's The Thing is getting a limited cinema re-release, and I immediately flashed on the whole 'Antarctica! Helicopters! Aliens!' thing - that, coupled with Kurt Russell, made me realise it was ripe for an SGA remake - surely there must be a SGA/Thing crossover/fusion/au fic somewhere?

Blizzards, paranoia, John Sheppard with a flamethrower...

Honestly, I'll be happy just to have 'John Sheppard with a flamethrower'. Or some serious facial hair to keep him warm.

I have a craving. Which, in the context of 'The Thing', is a little disturbing...

Maybe he could get a guest shot on NCIS? That would be awesome!

**nods**
NCIS, Criminal Minds, Criminal Intent.........the list is long of quality shows
not the mediocrity of that walk on in Warehouse 13
OR how about a guest on In Plain Sight?
Either someone who needs hiding or another US Marshall?

basically the Syfy network is grade Z cheese. All the shows are guaranteed bad.

grade Z cheese

that is putting it mildly...........
Have you ever tried to watch
one of their stellar films?? They are worse than B grade.....
I don't know where they get the actors and the scripts but they
are sooooooooooooooooooo terrible........e.g. that lovely piece of
art about uranium aliens......just too much.
***rolls eyes***
I watched the first 10 minutes of it........to just see and was
not disappointed in what trash it was.........
It could be really good and I especially love their saying about
how it could not be better or some such drivel......
I always scream "Oh yes it could"

Maybe a guest shot on Eureka? It's still on? I'm sure Joe can do scientist well. Speaking of fantasy casting, how about David Nykyl as a soldier?
