I simply don't watch shows that push agendas down my throat and hope that sooner or later they go financially broke to the point where desperate Hollywood starts pleasing white males again.
The only issue with that logic is the fact that Westerners are bunch of pussy wiped beta males that actually love watching shows about spandex wearing Chads with diverse casts.

I've stopped watching Dr. Who this past season. In fact, the number of new movies and tv shows that I watch has dropped drastically in the past 2 years because of shit like this >>85247538 and other social propaganda that has been getting worse and more direct.

They aren't even female characters, just strong character archetypes.

>>85247780
Because you're whinging about it in a thread for a family science fiction show

>>85247794
There was an episode where he said hinted that he was a woman at one point, just after changing. Not sure which one, but it may have been one of those things where he was remembering some adventure where he temp-turned into a woman due to some technology or something. It didn't really seem like he was talking about a regen type change.
>>
>>85247808
>Dr. Who

Fuck off boardie.
>>
>>85247794
Either A. he wanted to stay a male consciously or subconsciously B. it was just random luck or C. he wanted to be a woman but can't control his regenerations like Romana can for example
>>
>>85247794
because while randomness guarantees equal chances of occurrences, it does not guarantee equal results of occurrences.

Maybe Time Lords usually stick to their birth sex with regenerations, but a sex change regeneration can happen. For example in Hell Bent the general says she's "back to normal" after regenerating from male to female - maybe her first regeneration and most after were female?

What is /who/s general opinion on Season 10?

>when your show is so shit the main character turns into a woman
>>
>>85248797
He wants Moffat to write a script greater than Shakespeare's best work and have Capaldi act with more emotion and conviction than Renée Jeanne Falconetti in 1928's The Passion of Joan of Arc, often considered the best performance in cinema. Seriously these "muh wasted potential" fags will settle for nothing less. Imagine looking at Capaldi's speech in The Doctor Falls and thinking he was ever wasted. Considering who the BBC could possibly employ as a showrunner, there's nobody better for Capaldi than Steven Moffat.

It's more that he automatically seems to take charge and is the most active in terms of looking for ways to survive
I suppose its not a fair comparison though considering the doctor is a weak old man that's probably in a body thats hundreds of years old

>>
>>85249254
It hasn't been referenced since, there have been no ramifications to an actual superhero being public knowledge, and it directly contradicts S10 regarding when nardole started traveling with the doctor (extremis shows that nardole didn't start traveling with the doctor until the vault was already a thing yet in mysterio they're going on adventures and nardole has no issues with it)

It was pretty shit but I enjoyed it. About the same level as 9 and a bit worse than 8.

Pilot, Smile, Thin Ice, all shit.
Knock Knock, Eaters Of Light and Empress Of Mars have a lot of wasted potential but also some charm.
The Monks three parter is the same old Moffat storyline we've already seen like 10 times since Series 5, still not bad.
Oxygen was good.
The finale was actually great.

He’s not quite, as we have seen in The Return Of Doctor Mysterio the bumbling oaf he likes people to think he is - he’s slyer, more devious, more useful and he has a very shady past.
>>
>>85249375
Moffat talking about the show out-of-universe doesn't satisfy the two-way canoning rule. Of course he can reference it, it aired, we all watched it! But the characters in the show never show any indication or awareness it took place.

>>85249444
I don't subscribe to the idea of canon either, which is why I find it amusingly subversive to find arguments that a NuWho episode from barely half a year ago is non-canonical. Mainly because it undercuts the idea that there's a fixed canon that anyone can really decide, and emphasises creating your personal one.
>>
>>85249544
Ah I get what you mean! I really, really like your take.
>>
I speculate the Doctor made a pact with the Master/Missy a long, long, long time ago, over the vault. The stealing of the vault ended the Cloister Wars in a stalemate. The Master took the fall for stealing it and became a renegade allowing the Doctor to retain relations with Gallifrey as an objector and not a criminal. I also speculate the Time Lords tortured the John Simm Master in a time loop for the equivalent of a billion years to parallel the Doctor in Heaven Sent. So Missy is perhaps a bit bonkers. The vault contains a device for controlling the singularity of a black hole, a nascent god that is perhaps an AI that can assume humanoid appearance similar to the Moment. It may also be somehow warping reality to allow the Doctor to remain in disguise while retaining his apparent appearance.

I will never understand why people like this. It's so incredibly ugly and uncomfy, and it seems so small.
It just gets the job done but there's nothing great about it
It also annoyed me how it just looked like the one room. There was no branching off to anywhere else in the TARDIS, it was just one circular room and that was it.

How many people are familiar with the female Doctor fan films shot in the 1980s, starting with The Wrath of Eukor?

I'm aware that there is more to that TARDIS of course. It's just that every other console room had doorways or staircases leading out of it. They rarely, if ever get used but they are there.
The fact that the coral TARDIS doesn't makes it feel small compared to the others, which isn't what you want in a spaceship that's supposed to seem impossibly big and neverending on the inside

Serious question, what are some positive male role models in modern mainstream media? I feel like everything's gone for the anti-hero meme
>>
hey /who/, I'm a nuWho fag.
I watched Tom Baker's first five seasons and it was great desu, but now my friend made me watch 'The Happiness Patrol' and wtf was that shit? It has all the corny stuff that I'm used to, but the way stuff happens on this episode is much more confusing, I'm not sure if I'm following the plot and the characters' motivations, plus the editing seems a bit worse(?). McCoy is pretty nice so far tho.
>>
Is it true that Capaldi's salary was about the same as Matt Smith's? If so, what the fuck?! No one knew who Smith was when he was cast and most people knew Capaldi.
>>
>>85250672
So we /war/ now?
Will the entirety of the Who fandom be split into Team Peter and Team Colin?
>>
>>85251174
There aren't really any (at least at the moment) that directly deal with the transitions from one to the next. 8 has his own self-contained era(s) of stories, War has his self-contained box sets. It's really just a matter of how much of them you want to get into. If you want to follow the whole of any particular companion arc, you will have a fair amount of listening to do one way or the other.

8 will be getting his own Time War audios at some point in the future, so you might like those as a prequel to Night of the Doctor if they turn out well.

Jumping to that from Tom Baker must have been jarring. The Happiness Patrol comes from a very different era of the series, and it's got a mix of good and bizarrely bad decisions. It's not generally viewed as an example of McCoy's best, but people like it for its dark camp vibe and satirical aspects.

I can only think of Cap, and even then Civil War has that destroyed because it fell for the "muh character development" meme.

To be honest, the Doctor hasn't been a positive role model for about 4 years. Capaldi was the anti-hero Doctor.

100%
It was almost straight up Doctor Who
He even lived in his suitcase that was actually bigger on the inside and had a sonic screwdriver in the form of a wand
The performance and costume too, as you said, he was basically alternate universe 11 in that movie
>>
>>85251734
A little explicit nod to Doctor Who would have been a nice way to kind of tip the hat to the show, but oh well.
>>
So Whittaker is being paid the same as Capaldi even though Capaldi was a bigger name when he was cast and Whittaker, being the first female Doctor, is a big risk who might fail miserably. Seems fair.

I don't think the BBC see it that way. She's a well known and liked actress straight from one of the biggest dramas of recent years, on a show with a viewerbase known for complaining intensely about change but sucking it up regardless (and in this case it's a change that people have been speculating about forever and a day). Just in general I don't think "Doctor Who fails miserably" is something that's meaningfully on their radar of possibilities, because as long as it's stuck with its weekly adventuring 45 minute kiddy friendly formula, it never really has.
