Damning that the best scifi show England can create is sub Stargate level. A single episode of Lexx would destroy the nation.

The Doctor Who special was explicitly pro-trans rights so even white man David Tennant nostalgia wouldn't have satisfied the chuds

16-bit Butt-Head posted:doctor who once had a rated r spin off full of sex and gore i dont think anyone liked it... That was Torchwood and it actually acquired a significant fanbase among people absolutely desperate for gay main couple in the early 2000s (so of course it ended with everyone but the main character and female lead dying)

Torchwood should have ended before Miracle Day. (Or not have started at all)YggiDee posted:The Doctor Who special was explicitly pro-trans rights so even white man David Tennant nostalgia wouldn't have satisfied the chuds All I know is that they are seething about a scene where characters express missing the female doctor. Like 'how dare they' .

I've been going thru his stuff and he fuckin rules. I got kinda sad watching his (incredible) video about NFL Running Backs cause at one point during one of his rants about capitalist welfare for the wealthy I remarked to myself "god drat this boy woke as hell" and briefly and fondly remembered what that term used to mean to black ppl amongst ourselves before conservatives hijacked it to mean they saw a gay person with a speaking role in a movie or whatever

Reflections85 posted:This encouraged me to rewatch the review and I was wrong about one thing: He doesn't like it for the tactical stuff and explicitly says the fight scenes are bad. I was completely wrong there. The only thing I know about shield hero is that basically every fan of it is really loving weird because they constantly say how awesome it is a woman gets her name forcibly changed to "bitch" after getting defeated in the court of facts and logic for falsely accusing the main character of rape. Apparently the anime was a lot more toned down than the original where some real hosed up poo poo happens. There are a lot of anime out there that center around found family, and a million isekai that have game system themes and lovely world building in place of actual writing. So if someone specifically chooses to endorse the weird child slavery show they're probably into it.

oh hell yes, Marco listened to my request, The Last Duel from Lufia 2 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_QtOTfJvhY8&hd=1&t=679s it's uncanny how good he is at picking up on what's going on based entirely on the music. He had never heard of Lufia 2 before this, but picked up on the "back against the wall, the hero's determination and galvanization, it's now or never" sense of it, which is exactly how the theme plays out in the game. like, this is the scene that happens right before this track kicks in: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2bJkTiMJ-NY&hd=1&t=76771s airship crashed on their floating continent, no way to escape, it's truly a desperately heroic finale theme. now, unfortunately, the music gets cut off whenever a battle happens, but that is sadly a significant problem with a lot of JRPGs with random battles. also it's really fascinating seeing him trying to find a throughline with three very, very different games's themes.

That's like episode 2 or 3 of the revival. 's alright. Not the season's strongest but at least there aren't 90 minutes of fart and fat jokes. What you want is The Empty Child.

That charm mostly involves watching very good, classically trained actors shout at monsters played by dudes encased in trash cans without any level of irony whatsoever.

YouTube is rife with/protects a ton of animal cruelty videos and what I can only assume are videos for gambling, etc involving animal fights set up under the flimsiest of “education” guidelines. It’s really hosed up

I thought the only Olsen Twin movie I'd seen was that one on the ranch where they solve mysteries, but then that one where they have to rescue an old woman who is a witch from a mirror she was sealed into by her sister came on and I realized that was another one that must've been on the Disney Channel rotation or something. Also jeez these are way more racist than I was expecting.

I stopped watching Doctor Who well over a decade ago. I just hated his attitude: 'Look son, this alien slug may have eaten your dad's insides and is wearing his skin right now, but who are we to judge? Executing monsters is wrong.' Just a preachy git with a fancy wand and a saviour complex. I then moved on to other, better science-fiction. LOGH may be a bit too soft on the neo-monarchy at its centre, but I appreciated how even the most idealistic of its characters still got their hands bloody. The ending was refreshing in that the youngest hero executes a defenceless but guilty conspirator after a gunfight with his forces, and none of the hero's allies give him any smack about how 'revenge is wrong' or some other nonsense.

Was the shift a Blairite thing of the times? Come to think of it, that's the exact same reason I hated Harry Potter. Now, Picard I'd follow any day of the week if he always has a killer speech on hand.

Old Doctor Who had the Doctor sending entire space fleets flying into the sun or stranding monsters in a star system about to explode. All with an effects budget just sizeable enough to pay for a Happy Meal.

The bigger youtube problem with animals is that a whole lot of videos of "Animal rescues" are very blatantly staged, with animals that were already hurt or are being put in danger to then be "saved", plus a bunch of those come from a handful of SEA countries where there's really just no animal welfare laws to stop them. "Look at this dog incidentally next to a venomous snake! But we'll save them!"

One of the most famous moments of the classic series was the doctor deciding he couldn't kill Space Hitler before he made his Space Nazis. Whereas you have Tennant murdering things regularly. The doctors personal boundaries have always varied wildly between different iterations, both in the new and old series.

Someone should introduce Mother's Basement to Homestuck. It has everything you could want! Game mechanics, incredibly complicated worldbuilding, incest, time travel, Con Air, casual reminders of how people just used to toss the r-slur out back in the late 2000's, and an author thay talks in an even wordier fashion thsn the Architect from The Matrix.

Collabs with Ordinary Things and Sumito are of the major reasons I still give Internet Historian the benefit of the doubt that IH is at the very least aware that being an awful chud is something to keep out of his videos if he wants to keep building a larger audience. Also, (unrelatedly) the new Jack Saint is a fun ramble. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J5jEny6FhkU
