Throw grenade. Claim victimhood. Repeat.

Pitch perfect my eye. He lacks almost all the Yoda-like charm of Hartnell's version, and seems grumpier and meaner, in general.

Maybe if his last line is a callback to it. "Stars. I see stars…"

Kind of true about ever major character in the episode, if you think about it.

Oh man. I'm not sure if that was deliberately staged to be a little silly or not. But silly it was.

It just all depends on how they handle it in the Christmas special. The thing I think many of us hated about Ten resisting his regeneration wasn't that he resisted it - that could theoretically be interesting - it's that it was written in such a way that seemed to poison the chalice for the next Doctor. All that "some…

Absolutely. Bradley has a little of that twinkle when playing Hartnell in the movie, but very little when playing Hartnell playing the Doctor, if that makes sense. (His version of the "One day I shall come back…" speech is almost inert compared to Hartnell's)

Agree, especially since we have Hurndall's performance to see how a non-Hartnell First Doctor can kind of go wrong. Hurndall misses all of the Yoda-like charm that Hartnell had, and made 1 seem like little more than a nasty a-hole. At least a Hartnell impression would approximate some of that charm.

Me too. I wrote the Seven Nation Army riff 3 years before the White Stripes did.

Cool. A sequel to that Jem and the Holograms movie from a few years ago.

Oh they'd bring us on, but only to prove that we're not what they actually want.

Maybe it'd be better to say the great Chavo Guerrero from the legendary Guerrero family.

Can't they just make a goddam normal Superman movie? Jesus.

I don't think there's a person in this room who wouldn't love to see Tony Stark picking strawberries…

Uh, no. Not at all.

Take my upvote you time-traveling bastard. That's exactly who she reminds me of, but I hadn't been able to put my finger on it.

Remember 6 months ago when Fake News was a term for completely unsourced Facebook shitposts that your crazy aunt swears are true because they back up her own fiercely held political beliefs? Then someone came along and used it to describe heavily sourced journalism he didn't like, cheapening the term.

I also remember some schtick about Dracula being cured of his vampirism and going to a picnic and being super excited that he could eat chicken.

Pardon me. Of course the actual word vinyl is older. We're talking about the specific usage of the word vinyl to mean 'phonograph record'.
