Stargate (1994).

You all know the shape of the Stargate, which we discovered in the Roland Emmerich's movie before seeing it again in multiple TV series for two decades.

But did you know that it was originally... triangular?

Which would not have been practical for the Dial-up sequence ^^

Upside down or not, this shape resumed the shape of the (Goa'ulds) pyramids.

And it is ultimately much easier to make a dial.

This version of the Stargate has something more mysterious. It's almost another story.

But it's the whole process of making a film: to make the right choices.
