Trivia:
The language spoken by the older archeologists at the Egyptian dig site when the Stargate is found is poorly-pronounced Norwegian: "Herregud, vad är det?" (Oh my God, what is that?), while the younger archeologist replies in Swedish, "Jag önskar jag visste det" (I wish I knew). moreGoofs:
Continuity: Blood on Anubis's face when he is decapitated by the transport rings. moreQuotes:
Dr. Daniel Jackson: [to Colonel O'Neil] I don't want to die. And your men don't want to die, and these people certainly don't wan to to die. It's a shame you're in such a hurry to. moreSoundtrack:

Stargate is a terrific movie that has produced 2 hit TV shows, conventions and fans from all over the world. This movie started it all. I found it in my Uncle's basement and decided to watch it. It has an interesting storyline tying in Ancient Egyptian Mythology to make it even more interesting. It's about a struggling archaeologist with strange ideas about the gods and rulers of Ancient Egypt. Only one person is willing to believe him, and recruits him for a translator. What they find is even more amazing than they expected.
It's a highly underrated movie, in my opinion it's better than most sci-fi movies and very interesting.
