  1. I don't agree, the channel clearly intends to show that you can be progressive through subtly introducing "the message" rather than holding people down and ramming it down their throat. The point being that you can be inclusive without needing to shout about it or draw attention to it. The issue is that writers define characters as the gay one, or the trans one etc., rather than being just a person. It is lazy agenda politics and insulting.

  2. ^This Knowing your audience used to be a thing back in the day! I'm guessing her idea of her audience is non-binary or some other trendy sh!te.

  3. The only reason I watch it is Pedro Pascal

  4.  @Colancio  Indeed, a film has failed if you have to read the book. In the first couple of minutes of Dune (1984) you knew what was needed, although campy and dated it is the superior version.

  5. ...and when the male characters have to appear weak and silly to make the female lead look strong etc.

  6. China is well known for playing the long game.

  7. The whole episode is about being transgender and non-binary!

  8. It's the lazy writer trope that women characters can only be strong if the male characters appear as weak. They need to study how it was done decades previously with the likes of Ripley and Sarah Connor, strong female characters written in such a way that it was not necessary to weaken the male cast.

  9.  @adem1781  Perhaps the in your face delivery masks the nuanced argument within. ;)

  10. "they would breed themselves out and the zombies could just sit back and chill while they had all the gay sex they wanted." I laughed so hard that snot came out of my nose.

  11. "Literally around the same time as Oscar Pistorius is getting parole." LMFAO! Good catch!

  12.  @skillcoiler  "....or were too stupid to see pretty obvious themes....." Ah, so only intelligent people "see pretty obvious themes"? Well using that view, those that "see pretty obvious themes" in current Who must be intelligent otherwise they would miss them as they are "too stupid".

  13. @mr coal But it wasn't from a dead soldier, it was issued to somebody of the wrong size and sent back. Happens all the time... ;)

  14. Well observed.

  15. "ALL the money from this movie goes to Great Ormond St Hospital. " No it does not, that is naïve. The simplest way to support and ensure ALL your money gets there is to donate on their website rather than pay to watch this sh!te!

  16. @jg pliskin I am sure that the channel owner is crying at the money he makes.

  17. Erm, that's not what he means by political.

  18. Yes indeed, there is no extreme right or left, they are closer too each other than they believe themselves to be.

  19. Peter Capaldi as Doctor said: “Doctor, I let you go”
    2
  20. Ouch! You made me have that thought now and as much as I detested Disco you may be right. You have traumatised me now, thanks!

  21. Lecturing a non-binary, time travelling, alien. One that has interacted with countless civilisations across time and space. Assuming that the other alien would actually know about the current pronoun fad and give a sh!t. A new low in writing to promote "the message".

  22. You've never met my mum.

  23.  @SoloRenegade  You don't believe being a mother is a high achievement?
    2
  24.  @SoloRenegade  LOL, sure being a mother is easy. Whatever you say!
    2
  25.  @SoloRenegade  My case? FFS get a grip.
    2
  26.  @SoloRenegade  LOL it is hilarious that you are taking this stance. My grumpy all triggered.

  27. Dear Cripple, Please don't become evil, it will ruin our agenda. Thank you, BBC.

  30. Being pragmatic in that age would mean the "diverse" ones being shipped out to some foreign land "where they belong".

  31.  @InceyWincey  I said nothing of slavery. They would not have been welcomed, stop being so naïve about Victorian Britain. Yes I know there were immigrants, you think it was all hunky dory to live in Victorian Britain as a person of colour? These kids would at the very least end up in a workhouse.

  32. The difference is in delivery and writing.

  33. Marvel got way to complicated to follow. As a casual viewer I simply could not keep up with the intertwined films and frankly didn't care either because most of them are sh!te anyway.
    1
  34. Indeed, given the wonders of fast broadband there are many a film that would take me less that 1 minute to download and I can't be bothered to even fast forward through them, that is how sh!te they look!

  35. The decline in ratings is going to be on an epic scale.

  36. Draining his sea monster wouldn't be age appropriate.

  37. cyberpeople There, corrected that for you.

  38. Well I am glad it is not like 2, but concerned it is not like 1.

  39. You make an interesting observation. After decades of watching, I too have never thought of Davros being disabled! How bizarre is it that I did not make the connection between being in a "wheelchair" and disabled?
    1
  40. All I got from that was "ladies" and "dirty".
    1
  41. I thought the actor plays Davros well, watching him transform into the Davros we know and "love" would have been good, a missed opportunity to copy Darth Vader's path.

  42. He doesn't have a problem with diversity. You didn't watch the video.

  43. What did the 3rd episode add to the series?
    1
  44. Whoever thought that hasn't been to a supermarket on pensioner discount days!

  45. I could have got her back-story in a couple of minutes of exposition. It was absolutely unnecessary, but so has much of the tedious running time.
    1
  46. No it hasn't. It ended in 1989 due to viewing figures, the same is happening now.

  47. Glad somebody else picked up that line, I nearly spat out my tea laughing when Tate delivered it.

  48. A pan is what I fry my Full English in. Oh yes, I worship that!

  49. The rot set in long before Disney.

  50. Perv!

  51. I stopped watching ST:D for exactly that reason. What started out with an interesting premise, ST from the point of view of the First Officer, instead became Space Jesus with all the crew her disciples. Oh and the constant hugging and crying on the bridge was really annoying.
    1
  52.  @linzkirk  ST:SNW is way better.

  53. Korean zombie films go down well with the kiddies.

  54. We have never heard of you.

  55. Yeah it's not failing, bringing back Tenant and Tate was totally nothing to do with falling ratings.
    1
  56.  @gobatron6589  I have no doubt that the viewing figures are good for this special, however the decline will be sharp for the main series.
    1
  57.  @gobatron6589  As was Jodie Whittaker.

  58. Except they do care. YOU are the one saying they don't.
    1
  59. ...and why did the Doctor not know after being in female form?
    1
  60. The issue is not exclusion, it is the in your face inclusion and beating over your head agenda messages like the special when only 0.5% of the UK population is trans.
    1
  61. For new Who I gave up at Capaldi (not because of him), went back for Whittaker thinking she would be interesting, quickly gave up again, and thought with RDT back it might save the series. Oh boy, it was terrible.

  62. First ship out to the colonies I suspect!
    1
  63. I want some of what you are smoking!
    1
  64. From RTDs comment it will not be possible for him to be in a "wheelchair" in future episodes.
    1
  65. "I have never blocked so many people on YouTube before or after that day." I'd consider that a result!

  66. @vim2339 Yet here you are.

  67. For me to stop wanking, my mum would have to turn ugly.

  68.  @aroccoification  You are missing the point that it is an act to make money and he is doing very well off convincing people like you that it isn't an act.
    1
  69.  @aroccoification  It is not silly because it is making him a stack of cash!
    1
  70.  @aroccoification  Of course it isn't silly to make a stack of cash.
    1
  71.  @aroccoification  Well if you think being paid a stack of cash to trigger comments like yours that then makes more money, is being silly, then good luck making money! You really don't understand how channels makes money!
    1
  72.  @aroccoification  It is not silly, it is MAKING HIM MONEY Jesus, have the last say FFS! I am done!
    1
  73. However it is that, that makes a good film. Endless possibilities with a redemption arc.
    1
  74. Apart from the controversy, I thought it was an instantly forgettable mid-series episode, not a special. Furry evil ET being chased by what turned out to be the good guys, tedious and predictable, saw it from the moment the furby arrived.
    1
  75.  @JKPippa  Tennant was eminently enjoyable, that is true.
    1
  76. The 'do not press' reminded me of some database development I was involved with back in the early 90s, typical Government mess, millions of quid, never went live. During testing I had a button on a form that said, do not press, with a counter function recording the number of clicks. Yes you know exactly what I am going to say next!
    1
  77. Yes, same as Capaldi. I'd image him as being excellent as a war Doctor type character, a dark Doctor. But no, they made a joke out of him. Jodie then had to cope with all the "Fam" nonsense and basically got side-lined in her own series by her gang of companions.
    1
  78. No, because is his a wh!te male.
    1
  79. First series was good, second was a bit meh. Never saw the yank BS one.
    1
  80. I love the irony.

  81. These agendas will go away when Ncuti Gatwa takes over and ratings will skyrocket...oh wait.
    1
  82. "None of these shows or movies, except Star Wars are made for you." Who said?
    1
  83. It certainly doesn't improve ratings!
    1
  84. Indeed, you'd have thought he learnt that lesson after Crusade!
    1
  85. Me too.
    1
  86. LOL, indeed.
    1
  87.  @SoloRenegade  I am not the one seriously arguing over whether being a mother is hard work or not. This is comedy gold!
    1
  88. Which would be fine had RDT not explicitly stated that he was not in a wheelchair because he did not want to associate evil with disabled.
    1
  89. White men, have you not been listening? Get with the program!
    1
  90. You missed what RTD said then in this very video?
    1
  91.  @The_Real_Iggy  Can you point out where is states that he hates bl@ck people and women?
    1
  92. Yet here you are!
    1
  93.  @tomgu2285  It is fortunate that I did not attempt to and it wasn't the point I was making then, isn't it. Clown. Oh YOU are here as well!

  94. Who on Earth at Disney thought it was a good idea to have a Victorian privileged whitey girl slapping an Indian looking boy?
    1
  95. Yeah, comedy gold, one of my favourite quotes. Hudson : Hey Vasquez, have you ever been mistaken for a man? Vasquez : No. Have you?
    1
  96. Yeah, all those pesky customers who want good quality writing. They are obviously spoiled and entitled.

  97.  @upcomingweeb136  Don't expect any coherent well reason response from a troll.

  98. These days Hollywood would have Ripley drop-kicking the alien queen.
