[media]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ezVF3sDBv5A[/media] 3:10 is surprisingly "9 meets Rose" like with the hand :v: I kinda hope we miss out on the post-regeneration "AREN'T I SO QUIRKY WHEN I'M NEW" bullshit taking up most of the first episode this time.
I'd like to see a series without a companion one day, It would be interesting to see just The doctor on their own.
[QUOTE=ElectronicG19;52474952]i cant believe people are actually getting angry over this, jesus christ.[/QUOTE] My favourite part is going over to SH and seeing people who have never watched DW get mad.
I've been meaning to watch Attack the Block for a while, now seems like the perfect time to do so. If you're someone in this thread who hasn't seen Broadchurch and doesn't mind TV that's a bit depressing now is also a great time to do watch it with Chibnall having written it and Whittaker being one of the starring roles, would completely recommend it.
[QUOTE=ElectronicG19;52474952]i cant believe people are actually getting angry over this, jesus christ.[/QUOTE] People have a right to their opinion, and given that this is the first time the doctor has been female with how long the show has been running, it's pretty understandable that some people are going to be upset

[QUOTE=djjkxbox;52474988]People have a right to their opinion, and given that this is the first time the doctor has been female with how long the show has been running, it's pretty understandable that some people are going to be upset[/QUOTE] considering you've just proven yourself to be objectively wrong on the facts of the show
[QUOTE=Freeze;52474991][I]wary[/I]? sure [I]upset[/I] specifically cause it's a woman? nah - that's dumb[/QUOTE] Not really, people get upset about changes in shows all the time, this is just another one of those cases
[QUOTE=Freeze;52474983]I've been meaning to watch Attack the Block for a while, now seems like the perfect time to do so.[/QUOTE] Tonight's viewing now, I think :v: On Instant Video.
[QUOTE=djjkxbox;52475009]Not really, people get upset about changes in shows all the time[/QUOTE]how does that make this specific case any less dumb
[QUOTE=Freeze;52475020]how does that make this specific case any less dumb[/QUOTE] None of the cases are dumb because people have different opinions. You can't say someone should be happy just because you're happy

[QUOTE=djjkxbox;52475024]None of the cases are dumb because people have opinions. You can't say someone should be happy just because you're happy[/QUOTE]I could have the opinion that all people that like oranges should be killed but that's a pretty dumb opinion. Opinions can be dumb. I didn't say people have to be happy, but being upset because it's a woman is silly - that's all.
sorry guys but you heard the man, you can't argue with him and others being sexist idiots because it's his opinion so it's actually okay

[QUOTE=CoolCorky;52475031][img]http://i.imgur.com/lILegjo.png[/img] For the OP[/QUOTE] Would have to get a mod to edit the OP as they are permabanned.
[QUOTE=djjkxbox;52475038]People aren't upset because it's a woman, people are upset because it's been a man throughout the whole show.[/QUOTE]Oh really, they're upset because it's been a man throughout the whole show? Someone should tell them that it's a woman now then - they'll be quite pleased.
[QUOTE=CoolCorky;52475031][img]http://i.imgur.com/lILegjo.png[/img] For the OP[/QUOTE] First thing that comes to mind seeing this is the Barrack Obama combo breaker meme. Im not proud to admit that.
[QUOTE=Lexinator;52475045]Would have to get a mod to edit the OP as they are permabanned.[/QUOTE] Say no more, fam.
[QUOTE=Freeze;52475046]Oh really, they're upset because it's been a man throughout the whole show? Someone should tell them that it's a woman now then - they'll be quite pleased.[/QUOTE] Good job twisting my words
Well, I [I]would[/I] edit it but for some reason whenever I DO it fucks up. Gimmi a second.
[QUOTE=djjkxbox;52475053]Great way to twist my words[/QUOTE]If you want to argue semantics you should be prepared to say what you mean in a more accurate fashion.
[QUOTE=djjkxbox;52475038]People aren't upset because it's a woman, people are upset because it's been a man throughout the whole show.[/QUOTE] So, they're upset she is a Woman. If the doctor didn't regenerate into a woman they wouldn't be upset, there for the fact she regenerated into a woman is the reason they're upset.

[QUOTE=djjkxbox;52475061]Are you 13? Or just don't understand English?[/QUOTE] dude just stop
The Doctor has always been a man because the character was originally cast as a man, and it's taken years for social attitudes to change enough for people to accept a woman in the role. People are unhappy now [I]because[/I] the character has been male for so long, they now think that the character must [I]always[/I] be male. When in fact the main reason for that is the producers/public not being ready for that change. My reservation going forward is not the choice of casting, because imo they've never got a casting decision wrong. I worry that the writing will let the character down. Now that Moffat's out of the picture, hopefully we can move beyond every female character being a sassy bossy dominatrix lady. As was said earlier, if the character is written as "I'm the Doctor" rather than "I'm the first female Doctor and I'm going to mention that every week" then it'll be fantastic.
[QUOTE=djjkxbox;52475061]Are you 13?[/QUOTE] No, Jodie Whittaker is.
I'm just sad that there will never be an Ainsley Harriott doctor.
[QUOTE=djjkxbox;52475061]Are you 13? Or just don't understand English?[/QUOTE] Calm down please. Personal attacks on other posters are off topic and you may be banned.
There we go, I fixed it.
