@Doinkadect The Sun Makers kills me because it’s Robert Holmes complaining about paying taxes, but then it quotes Marx and the bad guy is a corporation, not a government, which I really think affects how the critique comes off, politically.

@KingPootPoot @FrostBiten @aPebbleInTheSky Crazy you can type all that and not be able to read. Chris Kyle wasn’t making “tough choices”, he made that clear in the book this is a film adaptation of. That’s the point of the tweet you are responding to.

@FrostBiten @aPebbleInTheSky The whole point of the scene is 'soldiers face terrible situations and have to make tough calls'. But twitter creatures are so braindead, so media illiterate, that the scene is reduced to 'hurrr durr why da american invade contri and shoot pepol :((( oh noes so evil'

@FAAPF @rwmead I would consider that more egregious than KPDH considering that The Addams Family is a known IP.

It’s still that big, but also it had the same issue that Star Wars did back in 1977: no one wanted to take the license when it was first offered to them before the movie was released so now everyone is playing catch-up to get the license to make up for lost time.

Not that a marketing deal with McDonald's doesn't make sense, but 9 months after the movie came out? Isn't this a little late or is KPop Demon Hunters STILL that big?

@Tales_TimeLord The real clincher in this problem is Mawydrn Undead, which explicitly dates the Brigadier as being retired in 1976.

I never got my head around the UNIT dating thing So the Brigadier in the 1960's supposedly meets the Doctor '40 years after 1936', which sets him in the late 1970's Which means in the 70's, this puts him in the 80's? Yet in 2005, RTD still decided to set it in 2006 😂😂

@Tales_TimeLord That still feels more like paying off a brick joke vs introducing a novel concept that the audience should know about.

Hot take: I always hate these overwritten "how can we be here and there at the same time" scenes The companion knows time travel. The audience knows time travel. We are sci-fi fans. We are following it Noone needs BASIC time travel explaining

@NewtNights @Vixi_Artz Eh I think he would want it as like an attraction at the parks but he would never want it in his animation. He was a purist when it came to his animations and hated when they had to do cheaper animation when the studio was losing money.

@TARDIStime2 @acequeenkingpin The idea that Doctor Who wasn’t always gonna figure out some way around the regeneration limit when it eventually came up. Lol, okay. Technically, Doctor Who has done that twice now!

@Topinka222 @eveofthedaleks That wasn’t a popular opinion at the time. People freaked out about Capaldi’s “Am I a good man?” arc, and Series 9 saw the show drop below 7 million average viewers for the first time since the revival. History would be far less kind to the Capaldi if the show got canceled then.

@ehyeahwhatever Space Whale Aesop means a valid moral lesson demonstrated with implausible or fantastical consequence (aliens, monsters, magic, etc). You are thinking of Lost Aesop (where the message is incomprehensible) or Fantastic Aesop (where the message isn’t relevant to real life).

It's so funny that TVTropes has a trope that means "super confusing moral that's impossible to understand" and it's named "Space Whale Aesop", after the literal most straightfoward and easily understandable stock sci-fi allegory for a social issue ever.

@andrastimot @Fitz_Farseer @brett02e Oh certainly, I agree with you that Trelawney being black would be a disaster for that reason. People don’t think of that because the movies correctly fixed it to where even Hermione finds Umbridge’s actions appalling even if she finds Trelawney a loon.

@WAustinLeach95 @Fitz_Farseer @brett02e Yeah, I agree with that. But do you want to have one of the characters we're supposed to like saying that Umbridge is right and specifically that Trelawney is a diversity hire, on-screen?

@andrastimot @Fitz_Farseer @brett02e I feel like a forgotten element from the books is the main characters lowkey agree with Umbridge sacking Trelawney, they’re really only concerned with the precedent it sets and how she could go after teachers they like (like Hagrid).

@Fitz_Farseer @brett02e It's fine for the audience, I agree. The point where it really gets awkward is where Umbridge attempts to fire Trelawney. Umbridge would 100% call Trelawney a diversity hire, and most of the characters would low-key agree - which you want to avoid.

As it would have been Patrick Troughton's birthday, I'm listening to The Highlanders on the way home from work today. It's a story I know is good, but have always struggled with a bit on audio. Hopefully it'll turn up one day! #DoctorWho

Time to get on my bullshit about how RTD initially wrote Doctor Who almost like a metaphor for being out of the closet. For Rose, Martha, and Donna, traveling with the Doctor is this fun more exciting way of living life. But there is a catch to just how fun this all is. 1/?
Doctor Who Production News@DoctorWhoPN

Russell T Davies at Series Mania: “In many ways, I kind of think of Doctor Who as a gay show – which it isn’t, technically, buy he’s an outsider who doesn’t fit in with the world and lives his own life and… he’s very othered.”

@Tales_TimeLord The Master’s greatest fear is The Doctor thinking he’s a loser, wonderful things happening here. Plus THE DOCTOR’S greatest fear being a reference to Inferno.

Watched The Mind of Evil today Really interesting idea, to harness the dark thoughts of prison inmates and weaponise them. And to get a villain the Doctor can't defeat Also enjoyed Chin Lee -slightly sad she's a murderer and all the men keep saying she's hot but it's the 70's
