Don't forget the Doctor's big poo poo speech at the end where he basically tells people who don't like how they're being treated to shut up and take their lumps.

Be fair he attempted the confusing metaphor and the consent thing was very much bullshit.

The BBC looked at his proposal for 500 practical Dalek models each with a different colour scheme and greebling to signify their rank, the number of life forms exterminated and their last century of clan history and shitcanned it.

jivjov posted:Just call them sexists. "Socially conservative" sounds way too nice haha. It's not just sexism though, like think about any right-wing perspective on a social issue, or even a few economic ones, and the Doctor has probably come out against it.

Plavski posted:A lot of twelve's regeneration has been about being a warrior under duress. He hates pink cos he's a soldier, he won't take that woman from into the dalek cos she's a soldier, Missy giving him an army to command, etc. He spends a lot of time questioning his actions and the violence he has to do. So I can see the truce being a big thing for him - two sides in a war who find a moment of peace amongst the horrific carnage. I imagine it'll come down to a speech by the Doctor exhorting that peace is possible, you just have to want it. And then he'll finally find peace within himself and allow change to happen. That was the theme of his first season and it was stupid, especially with the resolution being "no I'm alright after all never mind".

The theme of the second season was terrible adventures in which the Doctor occasionally said "like a Hybrid", now I took that to mean he was describing other things as possibly being the Hybrid but perhaps you're postulating that he was doing his own take on 'like a boss'?

Didn't Clara literally call him a stick insect in that episode too? If it had been less subtle I'd have said it was deliberate.

It's more of an abortion reference than a metaphor really, isn't it. It's the old conservative white man equivalent of Dr Mysterio, where everything is a shout out to Superman but it doesn't correspond especially well or work on its own merits, and you can sort of see what it's going for but it's difficult to work out exactly how.

What if the ghostbusters in the reboot were actually big fans of ghostbusters the movie but then sort of accidentally stumbled into recreating all the events of the original but worse and it was never even acknowledged that that was what happened

What if star wars 7 just recreated pretty much every plot beat from the original but worse and starred characters who knew about the events of the old ones and even brought back some of the old characters but nobody ever pointed out the similarities Wait maybe that's a bad hypothetical

Deal with the devil huh? Why not literal? Bring back the Beast! Have the Monks as his servants, make the temple a bit more demonic. Have the setup be that the Monks have foreseen the end of days (the Doom Bacteria) and called in their master to claim his due. The Doctor needs Missy's help to carry out the plan whose result we saw in The Satan Pit. Didn't that episode say the Doctor did that?

You could have him do some of the poo poo like House from The Doctor's Wife, or take a cue from Labyrinth with the nightmarish set pieces that cheat.

Both Rassilons are appropriate to their role. Moffat's Rassilon got up that morning and chose to wear those heavy, uncomfortable shoulder pads, and they're weighing him down. He's literally weighed down by his mistakes.

I relistened to ...Ish yesterday and good golly is it a delight. A real celebration of the English language. Almost every line is some sort of play on words, which I really appreciate, and the antagonist is something only Doctor Who could get away with.
