Some good news for SG-1 fans.

From IGN: (http://tv.ign.com/articles/755/755696p1.html)

Today, official word came from MGM regarding not only the titles of the movies, but also cast listings and a general synopsis for each movie.

MGM's press release states that "Stargate SG-1 cast members Ben Browder, Amanda Tapping, Christopher Judge, Claudia Black and Michael Shanks are confirmed to star in both movies. Written and produced by Brad Wright and Robert Cooper, the new movies will feature the latest visual and sound effects, providing viewers with a theatrical movie-going experience." The release didn't state where or when the movies would be airing or if they would be going directly to DVD.

As for the movie titles and their synopsis:

Stargate: The Ark of Truth
As SG-1 searches for an Ancient artifact which they hope can defeat the armies of the Ori, they learn more Ori ships are about to be sent through the supergate to launch a final assault on Earth. Daniel discovers that the artifact, the Ark of Truth, may be in the Ori home galaxy, and SG-1 embarks aboard the Odyssey to find it, and pre-empt the attack. The IOA has a plan of their own and SG-1 ends up in a distant galaxy fighting two powerful enemies.

Stargate: Continuum
While SG-1 attends the execution of Ba'al, the last of the goa'uld system lords, Teal'c and Vala inexplicably disappear into thin air. Carter, Daniel and Mitchell race back to a world where history has been changed: the Stargate program has been erased from the timeline. As they try to convince the authorities what's happened, a fleet of goa'uld motherships arrives in orbit, led by Ba'al, his queen, Katesh, (Vala) and his first prime, Teal'c. SG-1 must find the Stargate and set things right before the world is enslaved by the goa'uld.

This could be nice if done correctly.

I never could get into the TV series (too convoluted of a story line) But I loved the movie that started it all. My cousin is a huge Star gate SG-1 and Stargate Atlantis fan so I assume he will be extatic to hear this.

Lube if you liked the original movie, you should at least check out the very first episode of SG-1. It picks up right where the movie left off.
I'm going to keep my fingers crossed for these movies. I'm a big SG-1 fan, but the new story line hasn't worked out very well.

I think if they make these scifi will show them instead of a direct to dvd release. Its coll to hear that they are going to do this but also disappointing because the series is going to end on a cliffhanger.

That first one sounds a lot like the story line of Halo. In fact it almost seems like they're trying to beat them to the theaters.

I will wait for the DVD's, then rewind like a fool to see the good parts, lol. I just love SG1 the original. Had a hard time with Atlantis though.
