The TV Movie also does some really interesting stuff with the TARDIS, much moreso than that episode does.

>>83280412
Tonnes of continuity to dive into attracts obsessive sorts, but the lack of canon liberates fans from having to stick to any sort of narrative or attitude about it. It's as "big" if not bigger than other big geek stuff like Star Trek and Tolkien and whatnot, but there's no marching order, no "rules", so it's a lot less daunting (and desu more fun, IMO) than those fandoms. Interesting side-effect of that is seeing huge fans of Doctor Who with very different political opinions and whatnot, even all for the show's politics being fairly clear in any given era.

>>83280287
I really wanted Asylum of the Daleks to be good. I will admit I love the Daleks in spite of the fact they have few good stories. It seemed like a good premise, but it totally shat the bed with a contrived divorce plot for the Ponds, teasing the special weapons Dalek in promos when it was barely visible onscreen, Clara being "fully converted" into a Dalek like Moffat had a brain lapse and thought he was writing a Cybermen ep, etc

I liked that S7 went for a more fun, self-contained adventures feel overall, which was necessary after the S6 clusterfuck. But the one arc it did try to pull off felt wonky and rushed. I dunno why we couldn't have just had a series with no overall arc for once, especially since they knew the 50th was right around the corner, and that could be chock-full of all the lore they wanted. I also dislike Name of The Doctor a little more in hindsight given that Time of The Doctor pretty much immediately overwrote it.

>>83280798
I feel like that character was written as a Dalek who thought it was human but then they decided on the Impossible Girl storyline and changed it into something that doesn't quite make sense. The weird Dalek people were stupid but there's some stuff in that episode I want to like.
Also Eggs
>>
>>83280594
>So the Doctor has invulnerable lungs, good to know.
I'm sure they used a justification that it would only affect human lungs, hence the line about Nardole having them, but that still makes no sense since this it is apparently going to exterminate all life on Earth
>>
I'm still not really sure what my problem with Pyramids was. It was pretty similar to the Zygon two-parter and I thought they were solid. And on paper Pyramids sounds interesting, but for me it was easily the most bored I've been watching S10 so far.

I love em too. It's amazing we have as many kino stories with the same monster as we do really...Genesis of the Daleks, Lucie Miller / To the Death, Dark Eyes 1, Dalek, Bad Wolf / The Parting of the Ways, etc, just first ones coming to my mind

I share all your thoughts here.
>>
so, blind doctor was great while it lasted. wish it could've gone on for the whole series desu.
what other disabilities could make for interesting stories?
deafness wouldn't be a huge deal. he could get lip reading software.
The obvious one would be permanently losing his voice, that'd be fucking great. It was already kind of done in Midnight, but i'd imagine it would be less fucked up than that was.
>>
>>83280886
I like the Dalek puppets. Hollowing people out and using them for infiltration is kinda creepy, and makes sense from a strategic standpoint. A nanocloud that converts people into them, that's a little harder for me to swallow

Eggs was admittedly funny but holy fuck how stupid does Rory have to be not to associate a Dalek saying "Eggs" with "sterminate"
>>
>>83280922
it was the script

>>83280946
I've given some thought to a Doctor who has to rely on a walking stick and eventually a wheelchair before, but a mute Doctor sounds really interesting.

>>83280946
Well, 11 was supposed to have a bad leg during Time of the Doctor, hence the cane.
>>
>>83280946
Dunno if you'd count it as a "disability" but losing his "time" sense would be cool, I kind of consider the Pertwee stranded-on-Earth stuff to be that.

Also just a general physically weak Doctor, like 1, works well and really enlivens the companions.

>>83280985
I remember leading into Time of the Doctor there were loads of rumours about him losing a leg. Considering 11's first line was about having legs, it would have been pure pottery.

>losing his "time" sense
i don't know what the fuck this means but it sounds incredible. could you elaborate?
>>
>>83281022
Perfect beginning for the series, very fun set of eps, feels like "blockbuster" Doctor Who the way it should be (not the way S7 did it). Comfy, but still having some proper emotional moments. #planeshavestopped is moffat earth cringiness but the eps are just so damn fun I forgive that.
>>
>>83280276
Are British blacks and mulattoes the most punchable people on Earth? Especially with that deep London accent
>>
>>83280828

So they either have the resources to run infinite simulations with every single possible variable that has ever occurred and then worked out which one is identical to the real world or they've somehow created one simulation that runs parallel to the real world which would involve cataloging and replicating absolutely everything that changes in real time?
>>
>>83281019
>Bill said "you better get my planet back" but nothing had gone wrong yet, why was she scared when she had just decided consenting to the monks was the right thing to do?
That's a bit of a silly one. She didn't think it was the right thing to do, she only did it to save the Doctor's life. And earlier she was only considering it because it seemed like their only option for survival. She was still well aware that she was putting Earth into a dictatorship, which she'd obviously want undone as soon as possible.
>>
>>83281044
Some episodes have elaborated on it, like the ability to time travel is a fundamental thing for the Doctor (and Time Lords in general), time is like air or water to them. I'm positive NewWho has touched on it but can't remember the exact eps...maybe The Impossible Planet / The Satan Pit

Basically it doesn't feel good for him to be stranded to one consecutive time period. Idk if it feels bad in the way that eating just gruel forever would feel to us, or if it like actually hurts, but it's unpleasant.
>>
>>83280789
>>83280880
What doesn't make sense to you? Seriously, what does "I'm finding it hard to believe" even mean in this context? That such a simulation couldn't really exist? No fucking shit. You can have stories about things that don't "make sense" and the fact that you think pointing this out is "engaging with art on a level beyond just vacantly observing it" is infantile.
>>
>>83280656
Well they didn't replicate is flawlessly, after all the Tardis translation matrix couldn't even translate the pope
>>
>>83281037
agree. It's weird, it's kind of a mess but it's like.... a really solid mess. A very comfy mess indeed.
The thing about this story is that the Doctor/Davros stuff could easily be expanded into a great story by itself. The same is true for the Missy/Clara stuff. The way they were smashed together wasn't terrible though.

>Unless of course, we’ve completely misread everything and this is a MASSIVE triple bluff for the surprise introduction of Kris Marshall’s Doctor in next week’s episode.

WHAT THE FUCK
>>
>>83280946
Permanently losing his voice would be far more than an interesting handicap; it's downright lethal to the core of the show. The Doctor's strength is his capacity to solve everything by talking (and for his enemies to graciously stand around and listen).

Colourblindness could be a good middle ground. Can still see but there would be the occasional dilemma regarding specific buttons, wires etc

As >>83280979 said wheelchair Doctor would be interesting, since there's a lot of running involved. However I feel they'd inevitably make comparisons to Davros, and I'm not sure if I want that

>>83281037
I love Davros chewing the scenery. The visuals of the Dalek city are nice, the concept of the Dalek graveyard is great. Missy with Clara as her companion is good.

However, I absolutely fucking despise that the Daleks can apparently open up and have space inside for a human to operate, like what the fuck is all that hollow space for then? "Exterminate" being fulled by emotion and hatred is a nice idea but the thought filter is bullshit.

Also something something eyes shut all them years
>>
>>83281089
The fact that a simulation of all of Earth's history could include The Doctor, who has such an immense history outside Earth, doesn't make sense to me. What's your damage?

the latter

a big deal IS made out of how thorough their simulations are. That's why their words are taken as fact when they say Earth will end; they have the data to support it

would make it hard for him to differentiate between the paradigm Daleks :^)
>>
>>83281133
>nitpicks
A nitpick would be complaining about how the giant monster in Thin Ice was able to successfully swim under bridges in the middle of london and not knock down any of the pillars that go all the way down and secure the bridge to the ground

Those are all perfectly valid questions that get brought up when watching the episode and detract from the experience - most of which could have been easily fixed or averted
>>
>>83281089

So what's your point?

That all fiction is immune to criticism by the very nature of being fiction?
>>
>>83281153
But Earth's history includes the Doctor so why wouldn't he be present?
>>
>>83281147
I've always wanted to see an episode with The Doctor tripping balls on space drugs for the entire duration. would that even be allowed if it had some kind of extremely sci-fi backstory and it wasn't recreational? Either way, i feel like it'd be entertaining

Can we just agree that Peter Harness, one of the writers of this episode (and also of Kill the Moon), knows absolutely nothing about science at all. Like the science stuff in this episode is the most stupid shit imaginable, and makes no fucking sense even to someone who isn't educated in science (and even worse for people like me who are).

1) Why were the bacteria producing all this ethanol out of nowhere? Bacteria don't produce ethanol when there's plenty of oxygen, they only do it when deprived of it.

2) What kind of shit tier scientist handles food/drinks while wearing gloves, and worse yet takes off their hazmat suit right in the middle of a potentially dangerous environment? He would've immediately been fired, and rightfully so.

3) Why was the keypad some stupid shit right out of a video game, not a normal numerical keypad like any door in the real world would have? Oh, that's right, because if it did then the plot would've make sense because the doctor could've just felt it out.

4) What kind of shit tier lab, especially one of this sort of biological danger level, just vent shit into the atmosphere? It entirely defeats the purpose of having a lab be environmentally controlled. And even if I could believe this, why is it still going when a biologically contamination lockdown has been initiated?

5) What kind of enzymes just magically make bacteria into crazy flesh eating end of the world monsters? Most enzymes aren't even taken up by cells, and when they are they're immediately broken down.

6) What kind of air lock doors allow you to open both at the same time?
>>
>>83281180

I just want to know how it's possible for them to obtain all of this data.

I'd be less critical if they worked out it was a simulation in Extremis by missing memories or things not existing outside of a sphere but a perfect simulation, right down to Bull going out on a date with that person...

I accept a lot of people here are fine with this but I can't get invested in a story that introduces such a technology without even an attempt to explain how it works.

Personally, I was never hugely into it.

>>
>>83280942
I want to see if you agree with me on this: the Daleks look goofy, you'd have to be kidding yourself to argue otherwise. However, their best stories are ones when they are treated completely seriously as a threat (barring occasional pisstakes from The Doctor, since he does that to all enemies). Their shit episodes are ones full of fourth wall nudges and jokes for the audience's sake about how silly these dustbin aliens are, because it kills the threat, and thus any investment a viewer might've had in the stakes of the episode.

I'm going on a bit of an autistic rant here, but it's something that happens in capeshit all the time these days; a character can't just put on some spandex and call themself Hero-Man without some character eye-rolling to the camera and snarking about how lame it is. It's like they can't expect people to unironically enjoy things that might look or sound lame despite having good narratives; that they need to be assured "don't worry, we realise it's lame too! we're not taking it seriously!" It's a modern trend that really pisses me off. Anyway rant over.

I don't know if goofy is the right word. They don't look inherently scary the way something like the xenomorph does, and if I saw one with 0 cultural knowledge of Doctor Who I'd probably be amused by the plunger. But my thinking of them is so tied up with what they are that I find it difficult to consider their visuals "goofy" although I get what you mean.

I'll stand by saying their voices are legit intimidating though. Very memeable, but not inherently a joke.

>However, their best stories are ones when they are treated completely seriously as a threat (barring occasional pisstakes from The Doctor, since he does that to all enemies).

You have no idea how much I agree with you. Earnestness > insincerity, every time. It's why I'll take a DC movie pretentiously trying to be 2deep4u with its superheroes over a Marvel one going ;) ;) ;) heh aren't superheroes silly, any day.

Obviously superheroes are silly. Nobody is smart for thinking that. Treating them seriously is weird and let's you do some interesting stories with them. Treating them like a joke lets you make precisely one type of story...a joke.

HURRDURR ITS NOT REAL SO WHY CRITICIZE IT! SCIENCE FICTION MEANS YOU CAN DO WHATEVER YOU WANT!

I miss when science fiction was about possibilities but still within the realm of reason. Ever since these millennial fucks got involved sci-fi basically means "whatever we want it to mean" and there is even shit being nominated for sci-fi awards that basically has almost no sci-fi content at all. Sci-fi has basically become the equivalent of the 58 gender nonsense.

But my thinking of them is so tied up with what they are that I find it difficult to consider their visuals "goofy" although I get what you mean.
Yeah that's probably a better way of expressing it. It's sort of why I can't understand people's raging hatred of the Paradigm Daleks; sure I can get not liking the brightness of the colours, but they are still recognisably the Daleks, with all that implies. (And I'm still salty the function of the Eternal Dalek was never, and will never be explored)
I think because of their memetic status in pop-culture, some writers are afraid of treating the Daleks too seriously, possibly thinking it's impossible for an audience to.

>Earnestness > insincerity, every time. It's why I'll take a DC movie pretentiously trying to be 2deep4u with its superheroes over a Marvel one going ;) ;) ;) heh aren't superheroes silly, any day.
Exactly. The most recent example I can think of is seeing the trailer for the Power Rangers movie. There's a line along the lines of "you will become... Power Rangers" and all the characters are like lol what a dumb name ;). And I'm thinking, who the fuck is that meant to appeal to, because if I was a fan of Power Rangers there's a chance I don't care how lame the name is supposed to sound, because I fucking like Power Rangers.

Kind of like if "Doctor Who lol more like Doctor Poo" was said in-show.

I don't necessarily care that everything be perfectly scientifically accurate. The enzyme stuff didn't really bother me.

Anyone would immediately look at that and think it's contrived for the sake of the plot.

I addressed that in my next sentence

>Obviously superheroes are silly. Nobody is smart for thinking that. Treating them seriously is weird and let's you do some interesting stories with them. Treating them like a joke lets you make precisely one type of story...a joke.

Yes the concept of a superhero is silly, and if you treat it as silly as it is, you get a silly story. That's great. But it's one type of story. I think it's fascinating to transpose something so clearly juvenile and silly to a serious context, it does the best stuff genre fiction can do, reflect back on why the concept is popular in the first place and use it as a mirror against the audience. Look at Batman in Batman v Superman. He's a murderer. Of course he's a murderer, it'd be impossible to be Batman and not be. But when he's actually pushed to that more grounded context, how do we take it? People didn't like it. That's interesting. That's an interesting story with people reacting interestingly to it. And I'd rather watch something like that than Marvel movie #3109412312321312313123132131231 with fun humour, sure, but nothing new.

Let me tell you about a set of analog no sense. First of all, why do the monks have to imitate disturbances? Is to prevent people from reading? If so, why analog book first. There is no point.

Secondly, the simulation itself does not make sense. The contest is possible from the beginning to mimic all that happens on earth? How can you get all this information?

You have to travel over time, so let's have Earth's technical occupation for counterattack? When people are more religious when it is easy to regard it as gods.

If they only do it now, how do I get? They have to copy something to each person. How does she know that Nardole is her? How can she know all the information about the doctor? They know how Bill dates another woman at the exact time?

Nothing to be ashamed of. Society is weird about it. I lost it comparatively early so it's never been something I've really worried about (although some people react weirdly when I say when I lost it if they ask but c'mon, they asked), but someone should just be secure in themselves about it.

I really would recommend trying it at least once, it really isn't similar to fapping at all and you might be quite surprised what it's like, but obviously it's your own sexual journey and own choice.

As for it being a hassle, getting a girlfriend (or boyfriend, same rules apply I imagine) can be, but it generally involves self-improvement which is good, and there's plenty of benefits other than just...sex. Companionship is great. Again, if it's not something you want then it's nbd, but these things are worth trying out at least once.

YES. Put into words something I didn't really know how to express.

His episodes seem to operate on the assumption that the audience knows the same intangible set of "rules" as he does, which is why some big twists/shocking moments come off flat because we aren't sure what the rules were for them to have been defied

An Adventure in Space and Time was great. What other stories behind Doctor Who's production would make great movies?
>>
>>83282669
>No need to label it really
This is where I'm sitting with it at the moment, I'm hesitant to commit to the asexual label because it feels like then I'm meant to hold myself to that standard of not finding anything sexually attractive, which is silly and probably psychologically damaging. And I'm not 100% convinced it's recognized as a real thing by the people who are actual authorities on psych shit - and the encouraging of "no it's ok it's got a label nothing's wrong with you" feels like it could just be a placebo

But the realization that all this time when people say a person's attractive they mean "gives me an erection" rather than just "visually appealing to look at" was a real eye opener, combined with figuring out that so many men treat practically all of their interactions with women as if it's a puzzle to say the right words to end up fucking them. It's absurd to me how some people practically focus their whole lives around sex. Makes it hard to talk to people sometimes because I simply can't relate to the shit they talk about and ask ("which one would you fuck", "who are you into atm", that kind of shit).

>>83282995
>But the realization that all this time when people say a person's attractive they mean "gives me an erection" rather than just "visually appealing to look at" was a real eye opener

Maybe this is true for some hypersexual 4channers but it isn't true for the general population. Most men do not automatically burst out with a throbbing erection when they see a sexy woman. They might if they start fantasising over the picture, of if they're already turned on, or if they start masturbating to the picture, but men in general do not automatically get rock hard when they see a picture of Jenna Coleman. Some men, sure, but not most.

>combined with figuring out that so many men treat practically all of their interactions with women as if it's a puzzle to say the right words to end up fucking them.

Yeah a lot of blokes especially young ones do this. I'd hesitate to say most, but certainly a fair amount. It's vastly more fulfilling to generally treat women as exactly what they are (just fellow people, from who sex or a relationship can develop if you get on and find each other attractive) but a combination of a lot of factors (a lot of them cultural) lead to that sort of mindset. But women are just people, they're just as interesting and fun or dumb and annoying as men are, no more no less.

No idea if it matters to you, but I assure you there are women who feel precisely how you do and feel similarly alienated in conversations about sex and whatnot. Maybe you'd get on splendidly with one of them.

Do you think during script readings, occasionally a member of the production team will turn to Moffat after one of these lines and say "what exactly is that supposed to mean?" and everyone nervously looks away as a sort of tense silence falls across the room. next day, the script reading continues as normal, everyone ignoring the elephant in the room that is the empty chair where that production member used to sit

only explanation is they are monitoring Earth 24/7 and inputting that data into their simulation, when the real Doctor comes back acting blind (and mentioning it out loud at least once) this data goes in their simulation

You know what everyone's afraid of? Being on their own.
Imagine that somebody was sitting at a script reading (it's a thing - google it). Everything was going normal, all the actors reading out their parts. But suddenly, one line stands out. "Hang on, this doesn't make sense", he thought. Nobody else seems to notice, but the man won't stay silent for this has now piqued his interest. "What exactly is that line supposed to mean?" he calls out.
A silence enveloped the room. The shock and horror had absorbed all of the sound. Nobody knew what he was talking about. Nobody even responded. It was at this moment that the man felt a shiver down his spine.
Because his worst fears had been realized. He was on his own, and everyone else knew it. An HB pencil in a case for 2Bs. And right away, he was erased for good.

We'll see how Moffat handles a partial regeneration, RTD had that weird hand and I guess Moffat will use the "It didn't really happen cause its an alternate reality" thing again, place your bets.
>>
>>83284523
alternate reality/simulation is quite possible, being a three parter I could easily see the simulation in the first part being a setup for the punchline climax in the final part. It'd explain away the regeneration and why they were so keen on showing it (and its cause) in the trailers instead of keeping it a surprise
>>
Why do the next time trailers reveal so much?
The next time trailer for pyramid had audio of the doctor admitting to bill he was blind, which was the very last scene of the episode. Why the fuck are they getting so desparate to bait us with the most important parts of the episode rather than just setting up the plot and leaving something for a surprise?

Isn't it traditional nowadays to show some of the best moments of TV/film in the trailers? Everyone in Hollywood is doing it.

what if it's a double-bluff, we start the episode thinking it's another simluation when we find out that it and Extremis are real, and Pyramid was the simulation ep?

A drama about the sixth Doctor would be easy to do, I suppose. Michael Grade fucking C. Baker's wife whilst trying to tear Doctor Who a new one too. Good stuff for a drama. We could then also see Colin start getting addicted to pies
