I'm afraid I spent about ten minutes looking for it. I found references and an exceedingly annoying reaction channel response to it, but not the thing itself.

But I'll keep an eye out for it and if I can find it, I'll send it along.
 
Well fuck me and praise my careful file naming - I've found it. Find attached! :)
 
I just realized what's been bothering me about the sutekh thing, I mean aside from the cgi dog thing. The way they frame his original defeat is as if Sutekh was thrown into the time vortex, (which only made him stronger) and latched onto the tardis waiting and playing a long game with the evil susan dopplegangers he was making, but the way he was defeated was by being trapped in a loop inside his own sarcophagus shaped time machine's time tunnel. (a machine that after getting fucked with EXPLODES and burns the building down.)
Now when I look up most of the results are the new episode but there's an upload from around the same time the new episode came out uploaded by the official channel literally the scene I'm talking about proving how inconsistent and BS the new sutekh story is lmao.

This isn't even bringing up the fact him being thrown into the time vortex a second time is supposed to kill him when the first time apparently helped him "evolve into his true godhood" in terms of power scaling. I'm no power scale autist but when you establish a guy who was already a "god" is now saying he achieved "true godhood" after you thought you defeated him last time kinda implies a bigger threat is coming if you put him in the same situation again.

I'm pretty sure these points have probably been brought up by every single person that's reviewed this episode ever after thinking about it for 4 or 5 minutes at a complete state of focus instead of half awake zombie nightmare creature mental state like the one I've been in the last few months while posting lmao.

Interesting theory... will the black doc get law locked?

This is basically why the side characters from the 1996 movie or any part of Torchwood: Miracle Day were never used in any serious context in spinoff material. Anything that wasn't carried over from the BBC is under the thumb of whoever they worked with; Fox for the movie (now owned by the rat, funnily enough) and Starz for Torchwood part 4 (which is why Big Finish never directly followed up on any of it and "redeemed" it).
What would be the effect of having one (or two) of the Doctor fall victim to this be, though?
 
Ian Levine's coping and seething continues, this time with some hardcore TDS thrown in

Why oh why couldn't the House of Mouse have financed the entirety of the Chibnall era??? Would've made things much cleaner once they divorced themselves from this Whovian mess...

I've seen a lot of coping from fans who somehow think the Chibnall's era is better than RTD 2.0. I think that's bullshit, because the former makes you feel nothing and at least the latest season (with all its flaws) has lead to some impassioned discussion. The two eras share some similar issues, but it couldn't be more night and day when it comes to actual execution and quality.

The whole "well it's not as bad as" is defective logic in that it presupposes that being something becomes acceptable by virtue of there being a worse option. It ignores the reality that two options can both be shite. Anyone who seriously relies on that premise is a 'tard and should be disregarded accordingly.

Having one shattered kneecap is "better" that having two shattered kneecaps. I still don't want either.

What is this? I searched back through the thread to find any comments of yours explaining what you were looking for but I couldn't find any.

It's a reply to another poster on a completely different topic in a wholly different thread that has accidentally ended up here for timey-wimey reasons. I now realise that said other thread must be missing my reply.

Well, the acting is better than Doctor Who, anyway...
 
It's just a mobile game but the image alone made it worth mockery.


Doctor Who and Star Trek are officially crossing over, with David Tennant's iconic Tenth Doctor and his future wife River Song meeting characters from the animated Star Trek: Lower Decks series.

The crossover will take place as a limited-time event beginning 1st August in two mobile games: Star Trek: Lower Decks - The Badgey Directive and Doctor Who: Lost in Time.

Events in both games will show different perspectives of the same wibbly-wobbly space-time macguffin, with Ten onboard Lower Deck's USS Cerritos and River Song joined by crewmembers Lieutenant Brad Boimler and Ensign Beckett Mariner.

Both mobile games are developed by the same studio, Eastside Games, which specialises in making licensed spin-offs for major TV series brands. Each offers their own selection of new stories for their respective franchises, unlocked via collecting a large cast of characters.

This is, as far as I can recall, the first time Star Trek and Doctor Who have joined forces in the world of video games - though the two long-running sci-fi series have nodded to each other multiple times over the years.

The latest season of Doctor Who included Ncuti Gatwa's Fifteenth Doctor making reference to visiting Star Trek, the latest of various references in each show to the other. Most notably, Matt Smith's Eleventh Doctor teamed up with the legendary Jean-Luc Picard in an eight-issue comic book series back in 2012, which saw the pair fighting a combined threat of the Cybermen and the Borg.

Behind the scenes, showrunner Russell T Davies has said he's attempted to get an actual TV crossover episode made where the Doctor visits the Enterprise - though, so far, it's yet to happen. Perhaps this could be used to gauge interest?

Having to go back to the Tennant era for a Doctor people gave enough of a shit about for a random mobile game really shows how much the show has destroyed itself.

THIS WAS LITERALLY A FAN FICTION PARODY COMIC FROM 2013!

Wasn't there also the official star trek/dr. who crossover comic with the cybermen and the borg teaming up or something years ago? Like around the smith/capaldi times? I just realized I never got around to reading that to see if it was any good lmao. Fuck doesn't feel like it was probably a decade or more ago now.

Yeah and it's better written than whatever this current crossover will be.
 
I... what?
But perhaps the most glaring and offensive example of his arrogance came in one of the 60th anniversary episodes in 2023. He had Isaac Newton (played by an Indian) mis-hear something the Doctor said, and as a consequence, mis-name gravity “mavity”. This seemed like a silly gag that would be over by the end of the episode. Instead, Davies has made it part of the show’s lore. From now on, anyone writing for Doctor Who, in any medium and in any spin-off, has to refer to gravity as “mavity”.​
​
Explaining this to SFX Magazine after Season 1 had aired, Davies seemed like a man who had gone insane with power, even mocking people who were hoping for some kind of resolution. Apparently he was banging his fist on the desk while saying:​

It’s not resolved, it’s permanent. It’s absolutely permanent. That’s what gravity is. It’s funny. It’s very funny and it makes me laugh and it’s staying.
It’s enormously funny. All the comic strip people are having to do it, all the novel people are having to do it. How funny is that? I think people are kind of looking for a plot in it. I can’t imagine what that would be. What on earth would that be? If anyone came up with a good plot based on the fact that a word has changed two of its consonants then good luck. He said, having built entire plots out of puns!
In the end, it’s immensely creative. That’s what’s brilliant.
