What's the name of this technique some stuff uses where

>>82142932
It's called The Hideo.

Poor doctor, and John sounds like a dick

>>82142932
What's another example where this has been done?

>>82143276
Tom Cruise as the slimy Jew executive in Tropic Thunder.

to be honest the War Doctor just should have been McGann

>>82143478
He already had larage established lore through audio books and stuff though. It should have been 9.

>>82142932
Credited cameo?

>>82143508
the nuwho pilot establishes that 9 was recently regenerated. that wouldn't have worked.

>>82143245
I liked this post.

"Stunt casting"? Although it is a bit more general than your example.

The story was originally written with Chris Ecclestone's 9th doctor as the Time War Doctor. Story boarded, scripted and everything. But Ecclestone refused/ was too busy/ nobody is sure why, so they had to re-write everything.

why would he be the war doctor?

There was an episode of Buffy where Gilles had been gone for a year but then he showed up to save her last minute and the intro credits for him ran in the last minute of the episode before the end credits.

So a magic attack came out of nowhere and the screen said: guest starring....

and as it zoomed in on him, it said:

>Anthony Stewart Head

>>82145007
No it was just at the start of the credits

>>82145059
it was a fourth wall break, it wasn't during the black screen

>>82145007
Why is he called Anthony Head when he has an entire body?

>>82143245
Aaaah you

>>82146551
Anthony STEWART Head. The family name comes from an ancestor who beheaded Stewart.

>>82142932
It's called the "crass addendum", or the "oh no they di'int".

it's called the fuck offerino

>>82144736
Why is he such a dick? I've literally never seen him in anything outside Doctor Who, where does he get off being picky with roles?

>>82145007
lol, no it didn't. i watched that episode yesterday.

>>82148395
He has personal integrity.

>>82143276
kill bill

>>82148560
Yeah, I got that sense from him dressing up as an elf to be a generic bad guy in Thor: The Dark World.

>>82143276
Austin Powers 3 opening counts I guess, Hateful Eight, David Bowie in Zoolander

>>82148395
He didn't want to be typecast, so he is in The Leftovers now.

>>82144736
Eccles supposedly had conflict with some of the people involved in the show which is why he left after just one season. Whether it's because someone else was a cunt or because he was a cunt remains unseen

>>82144880
why would he not be the war doctor?

>>82142932
Whatever the technique is, it worked in this case.

The 'Day of the Doctor' 50th anniversary worldwide simulcast was undeniably hugely successful.

Greetings, greetings, greetings! Well, I seem to be stuck in the sodding Time Vortex, AGAIN! So I can’t assist you. This is one of the many regrets in my life. Goodbye, my dears!

Fuck off, cunt.

>>82149154
That's not why. It's because the production team bullied their runners.

The tops were cunts his final straw was when the they treated the child actors like shit in the Empty Child he lost it at the director for being mean to the kids. Chris was the good guy.
