I don’t understand how this narrative persists. People needed to see Wandavision to understand MoM the same way people needed to see The Phantom Menace to understand A New Hope.

The problem isn’t the multiverse or the interconnectedness.....it was a bunch of half baked scripts, missed opportunities and bad…

So nothing is changing but a few words before a title to try to get the thickheaded bloggers and reviewers to stop pretending you need to “watch everything” and “do homework” to enjoy the Marvel movies, because the “superhero fatigue” narrative drives engagement and makes for an easy scapegoat for a complex media…

Doctor Who Christmas specials are always the lowest point of the season, regardless of who’s writing them, and I think Moffat has a better track record of making them not suck than anyone else. There are only so many ways you can shoehorn Christmas into a story and still have it be interesting.

RTD has, rather unfortunately, always leaned more towards Harry Potter than Hammer Horror or hard sci-fi (i.e. Doctor Who at it’s best), where it’s all loosely strung together spectacle and wonder, where you just kind of casually toss an explanation over your shoulder as to why the baddie is suddenly turning everybody…

That silence you hear is is the collective fucks given by every North American Doctor Who fan who have had to deal with this minor inconvenience their entire lives. (Unless they happened to catch the premiere of The Five Doctors on PBS which aired on the proper 20th anniversary date instead of waiting for the…

Yeah, I mean when did this “flop era” start? Cause wasn’t season 2 of Loki in the same year as The Marvels? Not to mention Guardians of the Galaxy 3.

Moffat is absolutely the best showrunner of the modern era. No question. And all the haters can step off. 
Yes, there were some bad episodes under his tenure, but no moreso than RTD. (And at least he didn’t write them himself.)

I’m still of the opinion that Doctor Who desperately needs to split the position of Producer…

Rule #1: Moffat lies. 

... so we’re in a time loop. Moffatt writing a one-off episode for Who under RTD? We’re in a time loop. WE’RE IN A TIMELOOP SOMEONE ALERT THE DOC-*disappears mysteriously*

I just don't think it is possible to do "Messiah" without Paul being with Chani. That's the backbone of the book. You can probably tell a cautionary tale of the damage a Messiah can do, but it won't be "Dune: Messiah."

Messiah isn’t the end of Paul, technically, though you could argue it is the end of his story and his kids become the protagonists of the saga. Sort of like how (to bring in a tortured Star Wars parallel), A New Hope is all about Luke and Leia even though Obi-Wan is still a major character.

I can definitely see that they’d want to have moved that way, and Boseman certainly had the charisma for it to work, but I’ve always preferred Black Panther when he’s a bit more...not ‘aloof’, that’s the wrong word, but very cognisant of the fact he’s a king first, Avenger second. It seems more fitting with his…

A couple of things:

My memory is long enough to remember the pieces talking about the extensive reshoots on Titanic and how that “troubled” production was going to be a massive bomb.

Seriously, fuck your thinly-veiled judgment of their statement. You are not owed anything. Celebrities are people, too, and do not owe you a public performance of grief. Their friend died. Let them grieve.

I really hate that we feel that celebrities owe us a public statement regarding the deaths of their friends. People need to mind their own business and let them grieve as they feel they need to.

The one where I have the sads...

My best friend did it about ten years ago (in a single year. He’s...not normal), counting everything that was available on DVD at that point. I know a few have been added since, and I think he kept up as they came out. I’m prepared for...varying quality. After his year was up, he said the classic show established the…

In a more positive light, concerning what we ARE getting for the 60th...

The BBC iPlayer has started listing episodes prior to the November 1 launch, (you can’t watch any of the classic episodes currently) and it contains almost everything else Who-related that has ever been released, including the Paul Mcgann TV…

“Publicly available records indicate that the rights were then purchased by one ‘Harold Saxon’.”
