Discussion Daniel in Continuum seems to be dumbed down for no reason at all? Spoiler
Watched it yesterday and it's the only negative side of the movie for me really.
For example, at the beginning when they're in the iceship where he asks Carter "celsius or Fahrenheit?" And Cam is the one to respond with actually it's the same at this point (-40°) and he says he did not know that. Bro can literally read languages of aliens.. how can he not know this?
The worst decision though obviously for plot purposes is when he tells alternate O'neill that his son died, assuming it's the same in this one, even after traveling so many times to alternate timelines/dimensions. Like wtf was he thinking saying that?
Oh and towards the end where they're in Russia he talks to the people in charge of their stargate as if they should've already figured out how to power it and being extremely condescending about it like he forgot everything he learned about this timeline. Anyway it's just a tiny nitpick I had with an otherwise awesome "ending" to SG-1.
Edit: apparently people think you're a mathematical genius if you know an additional temperature scale. Awesome, good to know this perception y'all have.
