faculty/sga

So... I was watching "The Faculty" the other day. And it got me thinking how the movie would be different if it was John & Rodney instead of Zeke & Casey. John & Zeke both do that "I'm a genius, but I'm going to pretend I'm dumb" thing, but Zeke is the quiet AV geek while Rodney would be the obnoxious science geek.

Which would work, because while John is trying to save the world from fucking aliens (or "fuzzy aliens" if you see the cable version) with his powdered caffeine hack drug stash, Rodney would be there to help and provide snark instead of being the quiet one. There would be the option to keep Stan, Stokely and Delilah, but I think you could swap Stan for Ford, Stokes for Teyla, and Liz for Delilah.

Originally, I was thinking high school AU, but this would probably work if you assumed the alien somehow escaped Earth and made it to the Pegasus galaxy. Atlantis is set on a planet that's a big ol' ocean. If I could write fic, I would... Uhm.. anyone? [livejournal.com profile] cassiejamie? *g* Feel free to pass on this if it does nothing for you. It's just a silly thought.

And of course thinking about "The Faulty" makes me think about Vshendria's "Borderlines" which has a shiny new layout. Ooo... and a new chapter I haven't read. I do love me some Zeke/Casey.

Hope has a nice Faculty fansite here with a film analysis that's a very interesting read.

I can't decide if your SGA/Faculty is brilliant or wrong. But you made me squee by including three of my fandoms in one post. Heee Fawkes!

I don't know if John can handle killing Sumner twice, though...

Um. Brilliantly wrong? *G* I-Man needs to be out on DVD.

Technically, wouldn't it be the first time? ^^*

Brilliantly wrong came up. *nod* Wrongly brilliant was my idea. *snicker*

Oh gods yes, we need those DVD's.

Hm... depends on how you're writing it?

Heh. Well, I'm not really going to be writing it. I don't think... hoping to get CJ to do it for me ^^*

I dunno, dude. I haven't written any fanfic in ages and they've never been good. LOL I;m hoping to get someone to write it for me *g*
