The next thread should just be that super creepy Tom Baker drawing from the last thread. That's all. Nothing else in the OP.

Is there anywhere to stream the new Xmas episode? I got all caught up on amazon prime, but they don't have the latest Xmas one yet.

The BBCA app does not even list Dr Who as a show to watch, unless I am somehow using the app wrong.

From what I recall it goes live for Prime on the 13th, the day of the physical release.

There's a hotel in Madison, Wisconsin, that hosts a an art and anime con every spring. When I worked there, the director of rooms told me she had to put a line item in her budget every year just for that specific event because they have to rent like every ozone machine, rug doctor and air purifier they can find in the county just to get the smell out. And that's attendance at a 373-room hotel; I don't want to imagine what a huge 50,000-person event like GenCon would be like.

Although the BronyCon people in Baltimore ... you could smell that poo poo a mile away. I was also told by the people at Visit Baltimore that they were practically dancing in their office when the Otakon people told them they were ending their contract and moving to DC.

Ha! I have a friend in hospitality and he says delousing the rooms is such an undertaking they have to bring in temps.

Just off the top of my head, I'd recommend Face of Evil, Pyramids of Mars, and Deadly Assassin as good starting points for the 4th Doctor. Honestly, though, it's pretty much all good.

Correct, all Fourth Doctor stories are excellent.

Tim Burns Effect posted:

The reason the autograph fees are so high for the bigger cons is that all the big name guests have guarantees, where the con says "you are guaranteed to make X amount of money through sales and the con will make up the difference if you don't", which is also why they have handlers/ con staff sitting next to them that are really strict about it

So what you do is go by their table on Sunday afternoon after theyve made their $$$ and the handler is gone because some of them will just start handing out free poo poo after that (my wife got Richard Hatch's autograph that way unintentionally)

It's getting worse because now the cons have to deal with agencies that directly negotiate the appearance fees. So there's basically a middle man now and you're paying those fees as well.

I believe Amell set up his own agency to manage his own con appearances (and those of his friends) to cut out the middleman, didn't he? I think it was in that "garbage bags full of twenties" article from a while ago.

Exactly what I was referencing. There's now a half dozen such agencies.

Watching some "classic" revival series, the New Dimension special that aired just before Rose. And it's narrated by David Tennant! Paying close attention, there's scenes from the finale cut in here, specifically the regeneration scene. Kind of neat to see at this point. Oh and Matt Lucas is in the audience!

Well many may recall that back in the :filez: day that Rose actually leaked a few days early with the Fourth Doctor theme over the credits. And it was a very low rez source so a lot of people were being lovely about the quality.

This reminds me how adamant my coworker was that Marvel would be hosed when the time came to title the first Avengers film. And holy poo poo was he angry when proven wrong. Like, 5 years later he was still being a bitch about it.
