Line 8:
In 1928, a [[Imported Alien Phlebotinum|strange circular device]] is uncovered in Egypt. Cut to the present day, where it somehow ended up in possession of the United States military. With the mind of the unorthodox, [[The Worm Guy|absent-minded archaeologist and linguist]] Daniel Jackson (James Spader), they manage to figure out how to use that ancient device. What they learn is that this "Stargate" opens a wormhole, leading to a desert planet
A recon team led by Colonel Jack O'Neil ([[Kurt Russell]]), and with Jackson along to reopen the gate from the other side, finds an Egyptian-style pyramid and primitive human society. While Jackson is struggling to identify the correct symbols to get the team back to Earth, the [[Sufficiently Advanced Alien]] Ra (supposedly the same entity as the Egyptian god of the sun) appears on a humongous pyramid-like starship, using the alien pyramid as a landing pad. Declaring his intentions to eliminate [[Attack of the Eye Creatures|the Eartheans]], it forces the team to cooperate with the natives to free them from Ra's tyrannical control. In the end, O'Neil destroys Ra's ship [[Deus Ex Nukina|with a nuclear bomb]] and leaves via the Stargate with the rest of the team -- {{spoiler|except for Daniel Jackson, who chooses to stay with his new wife Sha'uri (Mili Avital) and live}} [[Happily Ever After]]
Well until ''[[Stargate SG-1]]'' came along.
