Since this is the premier episode, let me just say that the opening 
theme song is great.  It's very much similar to the movie, and the music 
nearly the same.  Excellent tie-in to the movie.  The transporter rings are 
back!
	Children of the Gods was a perfect beginning to the series.  The first 
few minutes seemed almost like a movie, the little introductions of 
characters, namely Apophis, General Hammond, and Colonel O'Neill.  The first 
look at Apophis, the Stargate, and Teal'c was wonderful.  The way Jack is 
brought in, and he explains what happened after the movie ended is great.
	The costumes weren't as good as the movie, although it is a TV show, I 
realize.  They seemed too much the same, at least in the case of Apophis.  The 
Jaffa's costumes were too much the same as Apophis's.  Apophis's is just made 
of gold, and maybe with a clever head-melting hand thing.
	The music is great, extremely similar to the movie, but the movie was 
great, so the TV music is great too.  Although, it appears that sometimes the 
music doesn't quite fit into what the action is trying to say.  It's like they 
were trying so much to keep to the movie's theme, they couldn't come up with 
something to match what was going on in the TV show and not the movie.
	The ending of the premier episode was perfect.  It had a good conclusion 
to the individual episode, but left much open for later episodes.  The last 
scene, with Jack saying that they would go find Sha're and Skaara, and then 
the camera moving on the see Kawalsky's eyes glow.  Brilliant.
	I give this episode 5 out of 5 Kleenex boxes.

		General Comments

- I love how Jack just clicks open the staff weapon when the rest couldn't 
figure it out.  It's just classic.

- I love how Jack just pushes Sam in after she marvels at the Stargate.  
Another classic moment.

- I think that Daniel could have stayed if he wanted to.  Why would earth need 
him anymore?

- Why do the first few trips through the gate make everything frosty, but not 
later in the episode or the series?  It stays with the movie for the first 1/2 
hour regarding the gate, at least, but then strays into it's own thing.

- I don't think the DHD was in the movie: it magically appears.

- I love the gate being guarded "36 hours a day, every day."

- I love Teal'c when he says, "You" in that great voice.  Typically 
emotionless, but it really tells about his character.  

- Why wouldn't Kawalsky scream when the goa'uld came in through his neck when 
Sha're did?  Yeah, some may say Kawalsky perhaps has a higher pain tolerance 
level, but Sha're looked like it was pretty painful.  He just looked confused, 
like a bug bite him or something.  And the wasn't a gaping hole either.

- For being a linguist, and knowing what the language of the Chulak people 
have been derived from, he seems only willing to try English.  Why not a 
little Arabic, like he said?  One or two words doesn't count.  I'm sure the 
series can find a way to use subtitles.

- Teal'c says he has no where to go.  Teal'c could go to his family, as we 
learned later that he has one, but he might be hunted down.  Also, there 
weren't many signs that Teal'c would rebel.  We as the viewers may have seen a 
few expressions that signaled willingness to stop it, but Jack probably 
wouldn't have.  But, if you were going to be killed anyway, it doesn't hurt to 
try.  :)  Teal'c recognized that they were from earth, and that they had 
defeated Ra, and knew that "they could do it."
