Spoiler:

Well, Opothis is still about anyways - but they have to show Ras' face at some point, which means someone must talk to him.  Could be Apothis or Teal'c, though... and Ra being there or not probably wouldn't make all that much of a difference - in the movie he only lost one ship from his fleet when he died, so Apothis or someone else would have stepped in his place with not all that much of a change.....I think.
