10 Stargate Storylines That Were Never Resolved

1. Did They Ever Move Atlantis?

Stargate Atlantis Final Episode
MGM

The final shot of the series sees Atlantis having returned to Earth and, due to a battle with the Wraith Hive Ship in orbit, it is forced to land on the surface - specifically in San Francisco bay. It makes for a gorgeous last shot, with the cast all standing on the balcony, looking out at the Golden Gate bridge, happy to be home.

The issue: while the city is cloaked and no one can actually see it, it can't remain where it is, because the first boat to stumble into its path is going to crash right into it!

This is a relatively simple fix. In any follow up series that we may receive, one that should pick up on almost all of threads broken down on this list, Atlatis could become the new base of operations for the SGC. As proved in earlier seasons of SG-1, two Stargates operating on the same world can cause issues (a busy dial tone, as Daniel Jackson puts it) so it makes sense to consolidate their position.

It is with sincere hope that this list has been written - please bring back Stargate and give us the follow up we want!
