I decided to post some horrid rip-offs to just exactly show how crap this network is. How on earth has it been on for this long? Better yet, how the hell are advertisers still paying syfy to air their commercials?

Hahaha, and why not? It's not like the originals were so awesome they shouldn't be touched... As a matter of fact, some of these could even turn out to be better than their movie theater counterparts! :D

I just wonder how many SG1 and SGA movies and miniseries Syfy could have financed with all the money they throw into these...

I think individually these movies are very cheap to produce. I would be interested to know the combined cost of all these turds. They must be making a pretty good return on their (cheap) investment since they keep grinding these dogs out.

Probably not a lot, these movies are made super cheap. Most of them are cheaper than a TV pilot.

Wow. So I guess Syfy is making good money off of them, since they do get decent ratings, specially the Saturday night ones.

Think of it this way mate. It takes 4 eps of SGU with it's current ratings to get as many eyeballs as these janky movies. If SGU costs 2.5mil per ep, thats 10mil, ya think any of these movies cost anywhere near that much? :D

They get these "movies" from 2 sources.

One is Roger Cormans outfit - his are generally a bit better (but still not good). The other is The Asylum, which makes the "mockbusters" (which are typically horrific).

Those trailers look like FMV cutscenes of games on the 3DO and the early days of the Playstation. :icon_lol:

3DO? :icon_lol: Talk about a blast from the past.
