Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Who directed 'Stargate'?

Answer: Roland Emmerich

Roland Emmerich orginally intended 'Stargate' to be the first film of a trilogy. However, he and producer Dean Devlin were pre-occupied making the big-budget films 'Godzilla' and 'Independence Day'. There has been some speculation that the trilogy will be completed in the future. For reference, Jose' Escofferon does not exist, I made him up.
2. In what year is the 'Earth' Stargate discovered at Giza, Egypt?

Answer: 1928

When we see this portion of the film, Catherine Langford, the financier and director of the present day Stargate project, is only a young girl, investigating the discovery with her father.
3. Before he is re-activated by his superiors to assist with the Stargate project, Col. O'Neil is in retirement following the death of his son. How did his son die?

Answer: He shot himself

It is inferred that O'Neil's son found his father's gun which resulted in a fatal accident. It is also made clear Col. O'Neil blames himself for his son's death. As a result, O'Neil is extremely particular about keeping weapons away from innocent people, and later berates and scares away one of the alien workers as they attempt to pick up the gun to learn what it is. O'Neil's grief does not subside quickly and, as we later discover, his original intent was never to return home.
4. What food does Dr. Jackson give to Kasuf, the leader of the alien workers, to gain his trust and impress him, upon their first meeting?

Answer: Chocolate bar

Although the workers reside on an alien planet, it is made apparent that they are human, being the descendants of ancient Egyptian slaves who were brought to the planet by Ra, using the Stargate from Earth. When Jackson offers the chocolate bar to Kasuf, imitating that he should taste it, Kasuf responds with a surprised and elated expression, clearly enjoying the strange food.

In his alien tongue Kasuf exclaims, "Banni Wei!", which we can assume has a meaning akin to "delicious".
5. What is inscribed on both a necklace that Dr. Jackson wears and a huge bronze plate in the centre of the alien workers' city?

Answer: The Eye of Ra

The necklace that Jackson wears is a gift from Catherine, given before he leaves Earth through the Stargate. When the alien workers see it, they assume that Jackson is a representative of Ra, and he and his friends are treated as if they were Gods. Once the alien Ra sees the necklace around Jackson's neck, he confiscates it and wears it himself, explaining that "there can be only one Ra". Jackson later tears it from Ra's neck as he and Sha'uri escape Ra's ship through the teleporter.
6. When Dr. Jackson is being washed and groomed by several of the female workers, he appears to be uncomfortable, despite offering his thanks for their good intentions. Once they are gone, he admits that he doesn't feel much better and that he smells like a what?

Answer: Yak

Although he likens his odour to a Yak, the Mastadge is actually the species of beast that drags Jackson by the harness through the desert to the worker's mine. They apparently have a keen sense of smell, as Skaara uses Jackson's jacket to give one of the Mastadge his scent, and the beast leads Skaara and Col. O'Neil to the hidden writings, where Jackson is being taught the story of Ra by Sha'uri.
7. To call and use the teleporter between the pyramid and Ra's starship, Ra's guards press a button attached to their what?

Answer: Hand

Ra's guards all wear fancy metallic bracers, which have a blue jewel inlayed on the back of the hand. When the stone is pressed, a series of rings descend from the ceiling, inside which one can travel between Ra's ship and the alien planet. It is this teleportation system that Col. O'Neil uses to decapitate one of Ra's guards and also to send a nuclear weapon to Ra's ship seconds before it explodes.
8. What is the symbol (the point of origin) for the alien planet?

Answer: Three connected moons

Dr. Jackson finds the six symbols that lock the Stargate to Earth, in the secret area that Sha'uri leads him to. However, without the seventh, the point of origin, the Stargate would not know where to travel from. Jackson recognises the seventh symbol in a picture that Skaara draws, which Skaara describes as "the day of our victory".
9. Excluding Col. O'Neil and Dr. Jackson, which two members of the reconnaissance team survive?

Answer: Kawalsky and Feretti

Kawalsky and Brown accompany Col. O'Neil and Dr. Jackson to the worker's city. Feretti, Freeman and two more of the team return to the pyramid to find shelter from a sandstorm, where they are ambushed by Ra's guards. Only Freeman and Feretti survive, and are captured.

When O'Neil and his group return to the pyramid, they too are attacked by Ra's guards, and Brown is killed. After the others are captured, Ra instructs Jackson to publicly execute O'Neil, Kawalsky, Feretti and Freeman. A daring rescue is staged, and all escape except Freeman, who is killed by Ra's guards while fleeing. Kawalsy and Feretti return home with O'Neil.
10. Before Col. O'Neil returns to Earth through the Stargate, what does Dr. Jackson give him to take home to Catherine?

Answer: The Eye of Ra necklace

While the others return home, Jackson stays on the alien planet to be with his new wife Sha'uri and to learn about her culture. When O'Neil is ready to leave, Jackson places the Eye of Ra necklace in his hands, with the words, "Tell Catherine this brought me luck". Before he leaves Earth, Catherine gives the necklace to Jackson, explaining that it has been her good-luck charm ever since she discovered it with the Stargate in Egypt, in 1928. Thanks for playing, I hope you've unlocked the gate to a greater appreciation of this film.
