Tennant was a good actor before Doctor Who? I know he's a good actor now, I just thought he got better. Did he live in an apartment with a gas leak while he was filming Doctor Who? Because he was loving awful in that show.

also, when he was a lot younger, he was in Local Hero, which is a great underseen movie everyone should watch.

PriorMarcus posted:Do you honestly think the fanbase of a show built around change and hope and inclusivity is more toxic than a fan base built around a masculine action fantasy where women are disposable objects? ... are you talking about Doctor Who with the first part there? Either way, like Guy Goodbody said, Doctor Who is a way more narrow and insular fanbase, which yeah, is almost guaranteed to be more toxic even when you don't include the "has a rabid following of nerds on the internet" part.

Also has there been any example ever of a role being race/genderswapped and was actually worse because of it? (The Last Airbender doesn't count)

HBO is doing a movie starring Al Pacino as Joe Paterno and somehow Pacino neither looks like Paterno or himself in it. http://deadline.com/2017/07/al-pacino-joe-paterno-hbo-barry-levinson-penn-state-1202129729/

Lurdiak posted:Moffat's leaving so the show might become watchable. I remember the good old days when people were saying this about Davies and were happy to see Moffat step in. Lurdiak posted:Name one, because from where I stand they're all nobody tv/stage actors. Did I miss an Ian McKellen doctor somewhere in there? Off the top of my head, before they were on Doctor Who David Tennant was in a Harry Potter movie and Christopher Eccleston was in 28 Days Later. lelandjs posted:Also has there been any example ever of a role being race/genderswapped and was actually worse because of it?

I don't really agree with you on that, but even if I did I'd probably still lean towards Veep. I think it's probably the best comedy of this decade.

So if you don't have cable but are interested in HBO stuff I would recommend going with Amazon's channel for it. You get access to all the on demand but still get a livestream that is just the various channel feeds.

Like seriously Ross and Rachel got together because Ross kept putting in friend coins until sex fell out but Joey and Rachel get along way better and have more in common and the way their relationship blossomed made way more sense

So I'm in the 4th season of BSG for the first time. What was the reaction at the end of season 3 when the 4 were revealed? I don't know how I feel about it. Frankly, it just seems really out of nowhere and slapdash. I'm now watching episode 6 after Cally's last episode.

I hated the end of s3, and all of s4 bar one episode (The Siege?). I never got around to watching the last episode or two but keep meaning to just for completion. Such a let down.
