canonicity in general i've been involved in a long discussion over on talk stargate device over whether the stargate in the movie is the same thing as the stargate in the series with centrx arguing that they aren't and that discussing the stargate in just one article was deceitful i don't think his argument is at all valid but in the course of looking stuff up on the web i've discovered that some fans of the movie apparently consider the sg series to be somehow illegitimate or non canon i'm not familiar with the stargate fan community just the show itself so i don't feel comfortable adding discussion of this directly to the article does anyone know any details about this such as how widespread this apparent schism is jul utc
