This Final Cut is a re-edit of Children of the Gods (1997), turning the pilot episode of Stargate SG-1 (1997) into a standalone film. The plot is similar to the pilot, but with modifications to several scenes, remastered video, a new soundtrack, and improved special effects. Some dialogue has also been edited and, in some scenes, entirely re-recorded.
Vaitiare Hirshon (Sha're), as Vaitiare Bandera, was fully nude during an alter scene in the original aired version of this episode on Showtime, but the nudity was cut out of this version.
