Playa, playa, big dick playa!

This. If somebody went back to early 2002 and leaked the plot outlines for Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith, people would have gushed about how awesome the movies sounded.

I have to say that I reflexively shuddered at this part:

“It’s dumb that they just brought back Palps after not mentioning him in either of the previous movies. Like we’re supposed to believe that he was like just off-screen the entire time.”

There are millions of almost versions of a movie that never happen for lots of reasons. And while this purported synopsis sounds closer to what my idealized version of Episode IX would look like, I don’t want to get hung up on the “could have beens” out there.

But to be fair, in the UK if a series goes beyond four episodes it’s considered “long running”, so by that standard the character died well into the show.

The actress concerned found a new, more conventional, use for deep fat fryers by doing some TV cookery shows.

Wasn’t Freema Agyeman featured a lot in the advertisements for that Survivors remake? Posters, trailers, etc? She was killed off in the first episode—and, as an added bonus, her character was apparently one who survived the entire original series.

I could see Blofeld becoming a motivational speaker.

The proper response would have been "go ahead. Get a court to order the release of a man who has no evidence of his existence. Or just tell them he's a 500 year old vampire because the only scenario there where you don't end up in an asylum is that they believe you and try him for hundreds of murders."

Honestly? Whether they explain it or not, however they ultimately work around it, Missy going good was never going to stick and anyone who genuinely thought it might was deluding themselves. Just like even though the Valeyard’s supposedly lurking in the Doctor’s future, the Doctor is never going to turn evil and stay…

Missy’s redemption arc was one of my favourite things this show’s done in a long time, but paradoxically, I have no problem with The Master just being back to straight evil with no explanation. if you follow the idea that each incarnation of the Doctor is a reaction to the previous’ characteristics - which I firmly…

I liked this two-parter, but it feels as if it took an entire season for the writers (Chibnall very much included) to get over their hang-ups about what NOT to do with a female Doctor, and start thinking about what TO do with her as a character. Whittaker’s Doctor is finally starting to take on a persona of her own,…

Rose had potential — engineer, true believer in the cause, lost her sister — that was utterly wasted across 2 full movies. But she was still a big enough part of the TLJ that you have to at least acknowledge her existence more than an awkward shoulder pat.

Best explanation: it exploding would create a blast big enough to wipe out all REMAINING universes, but only because, by that point, there were only a handful of universes left. If the Anti-Monitor had detonated it right off the bat, he might have destroyed a dozen or so universes, but that’d still leave him Infinity…

Oliver becoming the Spectre is just a stroke of genius. The green hood. I’ve never made that connection before. But it just fits.

As soon as Lex appeared at the end, I literally said “Oh, you sonovabitch!” out loud. Well done, Jon Cryer. Well done.

Man, I was so bummed out that they made Bruce into a burnout psycho just to build up Kate.  I've been looking forward to a Bat family team up for months, and instead we got that.
