Jerusalem posted:It is kind of bizarre to realize how different Patrick Troughton looked as the Doctor than he did in so many of his other roles. He looks like Fleming's original sketch of Bond.

Boy, the Zygon two-parter is just...not very good at all. Especially that second episode. I've never had to force myself to finish a season like this before.

It's an ok speech, but it feels so cheap when you look at the two-parter as a whole. It's all one big messy lead-up to The Doctor making yet another heroic speech.

I'm fine with Chibnall. Moffat may be a decent writer but he can't run a show to save his life. There's no way Chibnall can do worse. I'm more pissed about only getting a single episode next year and most likely losing Capaldi with Moffat.

We're also still two years out from Chibnall taking over. A lot can happen in two years. Personally, I think seasons 8 and 9 are equal in quality. There are some very high highs and some very low lows. Both seasons suffer from having great concepts and mediocre-to-bad execution. Capaldi took longer than usual to find his character but ended up being pretty great. As a character, Clara improved immensely. Missy is great and Gomez completely owns the role. If I were to give seasons 8 and 9 a numerical grade, it would probably be around 5.5-6/10. Big Mean Jerk fucked around with this message at 23:57 on Jan 22, 2016 |

Toxxupation posted:are all the people smugly crowing about how great chibnall is for unseating the Great Evil Moffat just like If anything, there's far more posts insisting the show is now doomed because the guy taking over wrote a handful of boring episodes. Everyone seems to be ignoring how poorly Moffat ran the actual production of the show, regardless of how you gauge his skill as a writer.

Personally, I feel Doctor Who could use a little less whimsy. I'm not asking for some stupid overly serious DC comics treatment here, but every time the music lifts and the leads smile at each other I feel the need to roll my eyes straight through the back of my skull.

To play devil's advocate, it's also being marketed to Who fans willing to listen to audio plays. I'm willing to bet the majority of that demographic are male, classic series fans, age 25+. So of course River's going to share cover space with Sly and Colin. It sucks and in a perfect world River would be front and center, but I'm not surprised.

You people can sit through River Song episodes, 6th Doctor audios, and whatever the gently caress The End of Time was, but the mere announcement of Chibnall running the show has you throwing in the towel? And you call yourselves fans

Several of the North American Classic Who DVDs are out of print now and fetch a pretty penny on eBay. It's been very tempting to just sell all of mine and replace them with region 2 copies. For instance, there's two copies of Time Flight on eBay right now; one is $35, the other $60. I think I paid $8 for my copy. Big Mean Jerk fucked around with this message at 23:16 on Mar 24, 2016 |

I haven't done it in a while, but the trick is to order enough that you offset the shipping charge. Generally, 6-10 DVDs.

My problem with the Walking Dead comic is that the art is garbage (after issue 6 or 10 or whenever the original artist left) and the story is boring as poo poo. And I say this as someone who kept up with it until Negan showed up. His intro is when I had to step back and cut that turd loose.

Rhyno posted:Laughing my rear end off at "the new artist" in reference to the guy who has drawn 145 issues of the Walking Dead without missing a beat. Tony Moore probably hasn't drawn that many comics in his entire career. Quality over quantity. Jim Lee might make deadlines no problem, but I'll take Frank Quitely or JH Williams over him any day, delays and all. Boring art in a visual medium should be a punishable offense.
