Can we also just pause a moment to discuss medical ethics? Because in addition to uncomfortable racism and illegal detention, now we’re taking blood samples from people who are potential “organ donors”, in a manner of speaking- without their consent. They even call this out when Barry admits he skipped the “getting…

Holy shit, I want Dame Judie Dench as a DM.

Vision: PC.

I thought the first one was really dull. There wasn’t enough action, and what action you got wasn’t that interesting. The movie could have been a tight 90 minutes of robots punching each other, which would have been great. Instead, we got 120+ minutes of awkward comedy, chubby hacker subplots, and mumbled,…

A few things: the entire nuclear arsenal ever produced on Earth could not unlock very much of the greenhouse gas locked up in Mars’s ice caps. Certainly not enough to start a greenhouse effect.

I think a human being experiencing something he doesn’t understand and expressing it terms he does that end up being terms couched in mysticism is perfectly reasonable.

I want to do a remake of The Creeping Terror. No, stick with me here: it’s a black comedy about a town that is such a depressing place that, when an evil alien shows up and starts eating people, they crawl inside of its mouth, because, hey- at least their boring, pointless lives are over now. Your heroes would be the…

I’m pretty certain there were a few in Asylum. I’m not going to go hunting, but they’ve definitely been in the background a few times.

They have cropped up in recent episodes, usually in the background. I honestly didn’t mind those designs- they certainly weren’t my favorite, but they were a nice callback to the Peter Cushing films (which were terrible films, but I digress).

Can I just say that I’m totally in love with the Skaro sets this season. The doors, the angles, the curves- they’re straight out of old-school Doctor Who, and I love that the Daleks have become this mishmash of every previous generation of Dalek.

Shit, after John Simms’s Daffy Duck turn, anything would be a relief. I think Missy has a little of the pizazz that the Master needs that the Simms version lacked. The Master is supposed to be more style than substance, and the master is always supposed to team up with a vastly more competent force, only to get…

Because we can regret that Joel didn’t get some of the golden material that Mike got? I mean, I definitely prefer the later seasons for their delivery- they got mean, and I liked that- but the movies they got to riff in 8,9,10 were some of the best source material that they ever got to work with. I just end up wishing…

Even in the latter portions of S3, where she was getting short shrift, she remained the only character with a decent head on her shoulders who would make real decisions. The first few episodes, I found Felicity grating, especially because fairly early they did the “she takes off her glasses and everybody goes, ‘Whoa!…

Scorpion’s next episode is called “Satellite of Love”, which tells me they know exactly what kind of show they’re making. If that episode doesn’t air in Shadowrama, I’ll be highly disappointed.

I stand by that its a good film

I feel like Romana is needlessly reaching back into the archives, and in Moffat’s hands, she’d just be another River Song, let’s be honest. But a character like Romana- someone who is at least as intelligent as the Doctor, if not more-so- would be great. I want the Doctor’s companion to be someone who really seems…

I liked Nyssa too! But she could still be annoying- she was the one who kept trying to be the Doctor’s mother and nagged/guided him around a fair bit. Which is not all bad- I like companions who see themselves as peers to the Doctor.

That’s fine. Just don’t get thirsty and reach for a drink while playing. It won’t end well. I dunno- I have no problems becoming fully immersed in a game. When I’m playing a good game, the real world completely vanishes and I’m in the game. The same thing happens with books and movies. Shoving a screen in my eyeballs…

At least Tegan was diluted- that was the “Crowded TARDIS era”- Tegan, Adric, Nyssa, Turlough- sure, the whole crew was pretty annoying, but in different ways.

Tennant-era Rose is easily the worst companion ever. Worse even than Mel- like a Mel combined with a Peri with a dash of Adric. Yes, I said it.
