Astroman posted:True, but I'm pretty sure the "Your were my Doctor" speech was written specifically for Tennant and 5 literally was his Doctor. Moffat is older, and is more likely to be a T Baker man. Maybe even Pertwee. He's a Peter Davison man. In the nineties he even said that everything else was poo poo.

Attitude Indicator posted:Moffat's wording in that interview is harsh and really disrespectful towards people who apparently did a good and inspiring enough job that he can make a living based on their effort over 50 years later. But he's not wrong. Apart from being totally wrong. You can't look at things like Power, or Spearhead from Space, or The Robots of Death and say "Man everyone involved is poo poo aren't they"

The_Doctor posted:In the same way we see a bad episode of modern Who, but our own good boy echoplex did sterling work on it. To tar everyone with the same brush is incredibly disingenuous. You have to be incredibly myopic.

Wheat Loaf posted:As far as that Moffat interview goes, were the episodes he was slagging off available widely on home video at the time? Yes (Well, clearly not all of them - but in 1995 you could have copies of, among others, Talons, Genesis, Tomb, The Azteks, The Robots of Death, The Dalek Invasion of Earth, The War Games, The Time Warrior, The Ark in Space, Spearhead from Space, Pyramids of Mars, Brain of Morbius, etc etc etc) MrL_JaKiri fucked around with this message at 20:51 on Feb 20, 2017 |

It's from episode 2 of The Sea Devils when he breaks into naval supplies. He does not use a pseudonym.

He's only the sixth master if you put multiple actors together and remove CGI snake entirely

Class3KillStorm posted:So, center row, far right (beside Probably Davros)... I'm guessing it's meant to be a Weeping Angel, but does that face make anyone else think of the human forms of the Axons instead? The Lovelies, as it's a Gatiss episode

Burkion posted:I mean let's be honest, most of that still applies to Modern Who. The 50 minutes too long bit certainly does cargohills posted:Rassilon appears in The Five Doctors so lets make him a super important character He's mentioned in at least The Deadly Assassin, The Invasion of Time and State of Decay first.

It's more that the writers in the 90's (and onwards) got the obsession with Rassilon from the series, who basically used him as shorthand for "old godlike being from the dawn of time" whenever they wanted to have anything pseudo-mystical involving the Time Lords.

Well Manicured Man posted:Rassilon being a genocidal monster factored heavily into Neverland and Zagreus, and those stories predate the revival series. Was Rassilon being a bad guy a 90s thing? I disagree with that characterisation of him in Zagreus; I'd say he's more the "guy who thinks he knows better than everyone" thing rather than the more openly being a jerk of the revival. It's not a 90's book thing, certainly in The Eight Doctors he's simply actively helpful.

Wheat Loaf posted:I didn't think I was suggesting otherwise. There was a massive wave of the stuff around September 11th, the Iraq War and the 2005 bombings. I really wouldn't pick out any period of the 2000's as being particularly and distinctly worse than the others.

Carbon dioxide posted:This is impossible because with the old series it's incredibly clear they were supposed to be watched weekly, and if you try to watch a bunch of them right after each other you'll just get burned out. If you don't you're not human. Some of them work less well, some work better. No human can understand Ghost Light watched weekly.
