It hasn’t been confirmed because it isn’t true. 

TBH, I want someone to try just so the rest of us can fire up the popcorn machines and enjoy the spectacle of all the lawyers Disney’s billions can buy going full metal jacket on their arse.

It reminds me of when the internet was freaking the fuck out over Emilia Clarke’s hair on Game of Thrones — based on first-look set photos from, IIRC, really early in the shoot. 

IDK if I’d put Legion on either a best or worse list. I think it’s one of those things where, by this point, you’re either all in on its particular brand of crazy or you checked out a loooooong time back.

If you’re happy to wait three year until the collection comes out, I don’t see what harm you’re doing to anyone. Either way, the publisher and creators are getting paid. Retailers are making a sale. It’s no more “bad” than waiting for a book to come out in paperback rather than paying full list for the hardback on…

Uh, I don’t see any such thing.  Miyazaki, contrary to all popular stereotypes about the Japanese, is (in)famous for not being shy about saying exactly what’s on his mind and having very strong artistic ideas.  But he’s also pretty clear that he doesn’t really much like doing the shmoozy end of the business -- which…

Sorry?  Are you talking about second unit?

Basically, no they fucking didn’t - and, yes, he’s typically hilarious talking about how hard he had to pitch for the gig but nobody told him not to fuss his pretty little head about the action stuff.

Or you could go here and donate the equivalent to a full-price ticket directly to Fuck Cancer because this sounds about as pointless as a porno where everyone is wearing clothes over their chastity belts.

I know this is the wrong place to say this, but the British Broadcasting Corporation’s “fucking job” (as you so charmingly call it) is about a lot more than Doctor Who.

Perhaps because not every television production on Earth is run like an American network sweatshop?

So why the frag would the BBC bother feeding the trolls?  If they bothered denying every fresh hot nugget of bullshit in the tabloids and on the hater-net nobody would have time to do any real work.

Bingo! I’m really showing my age here, but way back in the mists of time I remember when the usual suspects were confidently predicting before a frame had been shot that reviving Doctor Who would be a career-ending flop for everyone involved.  How did that work out?

So, basically, this is bucking to be the most pointless and expensive shot-for-shot re-shoot of a popular and easily accessible movie since Gus Van Sant’s Psycho?

YMMV, but I think you’re right -- and that’s why I glad that Thirteen isn’t the cosmic know-it-all who confidently strides in and does what he thinks is best after delivering some pompous speech about how he’s The Doctor, The Oncoming Storm blah blah blah...  Which, a lot more often than not, gets a lot of people…

To be boring prosaic, it’s one of those features of a Tardis that come as standard... unless the writers happens to need it to be on the fritz... or at least disturbingly easy to get around.  You know, like the starship Enterprise is surprisingly easy to cripple for the flagship of the United Federation of Planets’…

Uh, sounds like complete and utter bullshit

I dunno. Mickey was more of a... sorry for using the neo-fascist’s favorite term... cuckold who’s ineffectiveness as a man was played for laughs.

100% agreed. To be blunt, if you’re selling your slasher films as an empowering subversion of misogynistic slasher movie tropes perhaps you shouldn’t faceplant quite so hard into... well, a creepy dude who might as well have “I Heart Michael Myers” carved into his forehead.

Thanks for reminding us all why we need more prominent characters like Ryan in pop culture - ignorant casual ableism that calls neurological conditions “mental disorders.”
