Liek, omg! On two levels!
I’ve been nominated by some nice folks for the 2007 Stargate Fan Awards, and I say to you — in the words of my people: muchos grassy-ass, y’all!
And in other news of things I’m way psyched about, I’ve already touched on how like, blindness-inducingly stoked I am about High School Musical 2’s premier tonight — but unanticipated was the fact that it’s being on tonight would have me thinking near-nonstop about Zac Efron being (a) hot(t) and (b) musical and (c) jailbait for making me feel a little bit like a child molester by thinking he’s hot(t) and musical even though he’s only three years younger than I am.
So in honor of that — what kind of musical numbers would Stargate: Atlantis, The Musical, inspire? “Life-sucked through the heart?” with dramatic grasping at the chest? “Part of their world,” with Rodney singing about having gadgets and gizmos a plenty, whosits and whatsits galore — did Zelenka what a thingamabob? Because Rodney has twenty — but who cares, no big deal, he wants more? Or — and please Jesus, I would need this — just the image of Rodney in a big black trench coat, holding up a boom box in the pouring rain, singing to John, perched in his bedroom window, fingers trailing through his lacy curtains.
Come on guys — hit me with your best shot.
(Or, for the people in the audience as stupid as me: hit me baby one more time.)

If you replace the name Megan with John, this is what would happen in Rodney stood outside John’s window with a boom box.

I will resist the “Like a Virgin” prompt for Teer. Or John. Or Rodney.
Barely.

I snorted coke (the fizzy drinking kind) over John and the lacy curtains. He’s so gay why doesn’t he know it yet? But who could resist I Will Survive as the cast ensemble piece with the surprise appearance of Chuck the Canadian Gate Technician signing like Barry White or Alvin the Chipmunk.

“Part of their world,†with Rodney singing about having gadgets and gizmos a plenty, whosits and whatsits galore — did Zelenka what a thingamabob? Because Rodney has twenty — but who cares, no big deal, he wants more?
I WAS TOTALLY THINKING THE SAME THING A FEW WEEKS AGO ONLY ABOUT A FANVID
THAT IS ALL

“What Do You Call a Problem Like Zelenka”
“A Spoonful of (gene) therapy”
Also a Wraith group performance of “The Music of the Night”, with Michael leading. Or just Michael, singing to a Wraith queen :
Close your eyes and surrender to your darkest dreams
Leave all thoughts of the world you knew before
Close your eyes, let your spirit start to soar
And. Rodney would interpret “I Don’t Know How to Love Him” from Jesus Christ Superstar

i firmly believe that john is a pat benatar fan, but i’m torn as to who would be singing “heartbreaker.” rodney singing it about john is the obvious choice, but sometimes john is so emo, and i could see him singing it about rodney. I’M SO TORN!

Words cannot express how much I love you - Stargate Atlantis the Musical! [gasps] High School Musical 2! [faints] (my guilty guilty guilty secret - I’m moving house, losing internet access and the last thing I want to get off my connection before I move is a copy of HSM 2 - because as cracky and teenage angsty as it is, it’s like… um chocolate covered strawberries, how can you resist?)
Also, the Stargate cast, as SGA-1 get caught in yet another diplomatic incident, dancing “El Tango de Elizabeth” with Zelenka telling Elizabeth she doesn’t have to “put on her red top, cross the event horizon to negotiate a treaty that might be wrong or right”. And of course, McKay singing, in the background, to Sheppard: “You smile - they swoon; you lean - they drug you with aphrodisiacs! And now you’re having sex! You talk maths and geek and wear a holster! The lust is driving me MAD - why couldn’t you have just been like all the other goons?”
(I’m sorry, I’m so sorry - I couldn’t resist =)
Also, congrats on your nomination. Totally saw it coming!

John, singing “You’ve Lost that Lovin’ Feeling” to Rodney, in a bar, a la Top Gun. (He, I don’t know, loses a bet or something. Who the hell cares why.) Because he would go completely over the top, and Rodney would plot his death.
It would be awesome. (For values of “awesome” that include “trainwreck”.)

Rodney sings “The Impossible Dream” to a ZPM? And there’s a montage where the ZPM undergoes some sort of mitosis and becomes a whole chorus of background singing ZPMs?
August 17th, 2007 at 9:46 pm
“I got your gate right here” from Guys and Dolls
And I just really want to see John singing “Luck be Lady Tonight” in any permutation.

OBV. OBV. OBV. when they first reach Atlantis:
How do you document real life
When real life is getting more
Like fiction each day
Headlines — zed-signs
Blow my mind
And now this deadline
“Extinction, we’re prey –”
Ascent!

The Little Mermaid as performed by SGA characters would bring me ridiculous amounts of glee. Mer
maidman!Rodney trying to convince the Hot But Somewhat Clueless And WAY Too Flirty Prince that he’s the one who saved his life, not the villainous Octo-Chaya? And all WITHOUT TALKING?? :is embarrassingly entertained:It’s got to be out there somewhere, SGA has pilfered every other fairytale in existence already.

How about SGA, Bollywood style? They could do the singing and dancing around trees, on mountain tops, maybe around the stargate? Rodney serenading Sheppard while he’s being coy around the stargate.
