STARGATE (1994) - HORUS EDIT

This edit was made to make that the original “Stargate” 1994 movie from Roland Emmerich can be adapted with the tv show “Stargate SG-1”.

I have read the early script of the movie and some information in there was important to decide what will be cut or edited in this project.

The major changes are:

  • New opening introduction
  • New score added and sound effect mix
  • New title text added to indicate some locations
  • New subtitles.
  • New color correction (the existent Blu Ray grades are bad)
  • The three moons on the matte painting with the pyramid apearing on two scenes are been replaced.
  • The Stargate now looks like the one in the tv-show with the light on the chevron.
  • Some deleted or alternate scenes/shots was added in the best quality possible.
  • Some scenes has been rearranged to make a never seen before viewing experience.
  • Some Daniel’s cringe moments was cut.

I leave you the surprise of all the other things who was changed.

I need to tell that the big search works was made by the member @Ronster, his project give me the idea to make a new cut of this movie. I used some rare archives who came from its work.

I always get worried about disrupting continuity. I seem to get blamed for that a lot.

I don’t know if Ronster has plan to release his fanedit soon.

I only use from his work some footage from a video compilation he made. I also use its whormhole travel through the stargate.

This edit is a new vision made to be a reimagined cut to go to Stargate SG1.

Listen for RA’s growl at 01.24 plus some other audio effects might be in there.

There was another scene from SG1 they took from the film it Just has a computer screen with James Spader and says “last known location - Egypt”

I’m very happy to receive your blessing for my project.
Of course I would be happy to work with other rare material if you have this! Thanks Ronster.

Yeah you have most of it in that compilation…But

as previously ststaed there is the computer screen shots of James Spader “Last known location - Egypt”

and there is another quite long shot of a death glider circling around the exterior of the pyramid ship as when I did that video I did not have season 3 or 2, I cannot remember. this clip is about 8 seconds.

The problem though with these clips from the movie that MGM spliced into the show SG-1 is that the PAL versions which I have those clips are hard coded interlaced where as the rest of the shots are progressive scan. So I don’t know if the SG1 series in the US was released in NTSC interlaced as then these could be de-interlaced to remove all the Blurred frames. That would be my shout on it, at least get the original series 1 in US NTSC DVD to see if the majority movie snatched shots can be de-interlaced… probably can pick it up fairly cheap? Thw new release with CGI updates removes a lot of the movie snatched shots from Children of the gods pilot.

The brief audio clips are from the Stargate CD rom however the mov files are old mov’s and VLC seems to no longer support the audio codec for it. It;s nothing particularly special it’s ambient announcements from an early version in the Military base and when they get to the pyramid there is some very brief radio chatter ambient noise. They might run in Media Player classic I’m not sure though. Also from the CD rom contains a nice font for the subtitles I am assuming that they are the original theatrical subtitles which you would get on a flim print.

It would be interesting to see if those fonts made it onto a TV version. would be a nice restoration to do rather than the bland dvd or bluray player generated fonts

When I was messing around with the film I had an idea to infuse a bit more Egytptian mummy horror to it and Russell Mulachy Tales of the mummy or Talos the mummy might be a good resource for that.

There is an extended cut with extra scenes of Christopher Lee and basically the tents and the dig site look identical to the ones in Stargate there is also some interesting ancient Egypt flashbacks which also might help with that aspect if you feel like giving it a bit of Hammer Horror feel 😃 The film is quite crap but there are some quite good bits at the Dig site and the Egypt flash Backs. The main idea here was when Daniel Recounts the uprising against Ra instead of showing repeated shots from the end of the film you could show ancient Egypt instead. But this could also be used when Daniel is ressurected to show the Healing sarcophagus also infuses things from the past when brought back to life.
