Rochallor posted:New title theme: remember when it was 2006 and you didn't have any responsibilities and life was so much simpler? No because I had a job already and also I wasn't watching Doctor Who yet. Anyway it's literally just the OG revival theme. I really like Clara's theme too. Gives me a strong "that quiet moment before heading off on an adventure with an old friend" vibe. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IqAblY4tWJo

None of them sound like they've been mastered for TV yet. They'll likely sound pretty different once they're broadcast. I missed Murray Gold. I don't think his completely over the top bombast would fit with the tone they went for this 13s run and the guy who did the soundtrack was perfect (13s theme in particular was really, really great), but in a way that at least represented part of thing I didn't like about those years - she rarely got to be The Doctor in the swaggers in, owns the room kind of way 10/11/12 in particular got to be. Which is one of the things I think a lot of people, myself included, liked about the show and is a shame because the rare few times she did get to hit that note, Whittaker smashed it. At the height of lockdowns, I started putting The Shepard's Boy on every morning. In hindsight, might not have been the healthiest thing to do and I don't think I can watch Heaven Sent ever again now, but it helped get me through.

Jerusalem posted:They should definitely do a Lower Decks cartoon but also Tom Baker's in it in his regular human form. The animators don't know how he got in there, and they're having to scramble in real time to keep the animation up with him but also he's going off script constantly. feels like an incredible strain on the animators wrist.

Sometimes it was a bit of an audio assault, but he also composed some absolutely amazing pieces for scenes where the score was vital to holding things together. The Shepherd's Boy carries that time loop sequence and makes it one of the best things in the show's history.

I know it's been said and this is certainly not the worst example but would someone please hire one of the old Photoshop Friday contributors to do the covers instead of whoever they have currently? I'm sure to some extent it's down to having a limited number of photographs to use but it is so bad in the last few years, I'm embarrassed when people see them 😂

I know that my previous posts have been a bit odd, with my claims of knowledge of some of the more esoteric elements of Doctor Who, but I wanted to provide some background information and share three films, part of a series, that are in-continuity, or as much as they could be considering their nature. I've been in recent touch with The Doctor, The Doctor, Yaz, and "Russilon" AKA RTD and have met all of them at various times, as well as other incarnations yet referred to and many in front of and behind the camera and mic. If you or someone you know is willing to pass on a link, this would be the one to send: https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=12XEDLngzWg5ZOYoX6qP1aGr2HEbkjz5F Now, to begin. The below is a list of the Fourth Period of The Periodic Table of Elements, which each correspond with aspects of The Doctor. The elements are intrinsic and guide the casting of The Doctor, even though all of the people have already seen visions of their future and have already been cast for the role, by fate if nothing else. Potassium - William Hartnell - The First Doctor Calcium - Patrick Troughton - The Second Doctor Scandium - Jon Pertwee - The Third Doctor Titanium - Tom Baker - The Fourth Doctor Vanadium - Peter Davison - The Fifth Doctor Chromium - Colin Baker - The Sixth Doctor Manganese - Sylvester McCoy - The Seventh Doctor Iron - Paul McGann - The Eighth Doctor Cobalt - Christopher Eccleston - The Ninth Doctor Nickel - David Tennant - The Tenth Doctor Copper - Matt Smith - The Eleventh Doctor Zinc - Peter Capaldi - The Twelfth Doctor Gallium - Jodie Whittaker - The Thirteenth Doctor Germanium - David Tennant - The Fourteenth Doctor Arsenic - Ncuti Gatwa - The Fifteenth Doctor Selenium - ? - The Sixteenth Doctor Bromine - ? - The Seventeenth Doctor Krypton - ? - The Eighteenth Doctor As you can see, the elements all in some way reflect the identities of the people who portray The Doctor as well as their personalities onscreen. To give a few clear examples, 5 is a bit of a "Van Dad", 6 is certainly quite chromatic, and 13 is a gal. For future reference, the 16th and 18th Doctors are female and the 17th Doctor is a male, reflecting the name of his element. The 16th Doctor is a more mature woman who takes care of the people who she travels with, the 17th and partner are quite similar in many ways, and the 18th Doctor is younger, but just as competent as her preceding personalities. The Name of The Doctor in Old High Gallifreyan is a math equation that balances out any variable with it's partner. The equation displayed in multiple places, including the inscription on Rassilon's Tomb, is: Delta to the third, Sigma, Pragma to the second. Inputting 4 in place of Delta and an alternate integer of 7, Loth, which looks a bit like an upside down seven, gets you 64 on the left side and 49 on the right side, with the 4 inverted, finding one's perfect inversion or "mate". Alternatively, inputting 4 on the left and 8 on the right balances the equation completely, finding one's perfect friend. Though, this can get a bit confusing. It's possible that both numbers are just guidance to narrowing down your path, but I haven't gotten that far along mine yet. I'll let you know around this time next year. The Doctor's nickname at The Prydonian Academy, Theta Sigma, means "Think Change" as theta waves are meant to correspond with thought and sigma waves, the range I've defined as 33Hz to 77Hz, correspond with change and motivations. While not related to Doctor Who, except through author Douglas Adams, the Answer to the question, What is the meaning of life, the universe, and everything?, 42, is actually a tonal frequency measured in hertz. It will give you the answer for yourself, essentially guidance to your "motivation" who is a person and the closest thing one has to a soulmate. You're welcome. You can listen to it here: https://szynalski.com/tone#42,v0.75 The first three films in The Infinity Doctor Saga were filmed over a period of nearly half a year and are on YouTube for viewing. There are two other entries finished, but they are presently under wraps, albeit "in the can". They are all important to an ongoing story and I hope that you enjoy them. They mostly stand alone, so I would recommend the second and third first, as they're the funniest. No actual groundhogs were harmed and no actual Sadie Sinks were stalked, to be clear. The Infinity Doctor (admin removed link to creepy 1 hour youtube video of muffled rambling) Trapped on Earth, The Doctor races to save Romana. Punksatawny Kill (admin removed link to creepy 2 hour youtube video of muffled rambling) The Doctor takes care of some unfinished business. Stalking Sadie Sink (admin removed link to creepy 2 hour youtube video of muffled rambling) The Doctor encounters a reverse licorice pizza. I am happy to answer any questions you might have or take any glowing compliments or fiery insults with good humor. I've often said that humility and humor are often the same thing, and I've been humiliated plenty enough to make a career in comedy out of it. Whoever you think I am, I am angling for a role in the show a few years down the line. I am also working on a fan series entitled Doctor You that I hope to be recruiting on fairly soon. I've sort of been in touch with others already, and have the first series plotted. If people are interested, I'll eventually share more. Oh, and one last thing. Time Lord names like Romanatrevatralundar are different, phonetically and psychically for each different person. The Doctor's name, at least the name of 17 and partner, are Gryfaldafix and Grifaldifax, to give an example of what the sort of variations to expect are. Hopefully, you'll learn who Gryf and Fax are sometime soon. (USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST) (USER WAS BANNED FOR THIS POST)

The_Doctor posted:Please get some help. I'm sorry, but what about any of this is troubling? I'm sharing a few fan films that I worked really hard on and some actual behind the scenes info, whether you want to believe it or not. The math on the name checks out and the 4th period elements definitely match up to The Doctors. It's intentional and has affected things such as 6's costuming choice. Whether you want to believe it's intentional or coincidental is up to you, but even as a coincidence it seemed interesting enough to share.

Dude what part of these are fan films or anything to do w Doctor Who? It's nearly impossible to hear what you're ever saying and every bit it you can catch makes it seem like boring streams of consciousness of a weird loner, at best. Even if you did write and act out a story here it would be impossible to watch because 80% of it is whatever poo poo on your radio blown out blaring next to the camera while you jibber jabber to yourself. The thing it most reminds me of is when you're in the city and a person hosed up on who knows what follows you around for a few blocks ranting about archangels and the president. Randomly clicked around one of these and found a "scene" of you wandering around naked with your dick out literally farting and rambling nonsense in front of a hotel TV and this bit encapsulates the whole project.

Given what you've said here, I'm going to guess that their video titled "Stalking Sadie Sink" is probably a very uncomfortable example of "does exactly what it says on the tin" in regards to the title reflecting what's going on in the video (or at least that's my guess, since there's zero chance in hell that I'm ever watching those videos)

They've been repeatedly reported so at this point I've just put them on my ignore list. They're either in dire need of psychiatric help or they're a troll, and neither are somebody whose posts I'm interested in reading or discussing. I suggest everybody else just do the same and this is the last we ever talk about them.

It was about time they reappeared in this thread - I have actually read through most of their posting from various threads (Because it showed up in another I am active in as well) and...yea, this reeks of mental illness.
