Ask Box: Episodes I Liked during the RTD Era
fucknodoctorten: I do enjoy all of the Moffat authored episodes during the Davies era, and a handful of others besides.* Blink and the Silence in the Library arc both rank amongst my favorite Doctor Who episodes over the entire series. I honestly think that some of my problems from the Moffat era stem from the fact that the man honestly needs a fucking editor to slap him around whenever he...

Ask Box: RTD and Moffat's Respective Sexism
fucknodoctorten: I think the reason that the Moffat era gets more hate for it’s sexism (The racism issue seems different and would require a different rambling post… as it’s more an issue of tokenism/ignorance vs. flat invisibility) is that it takes a different form than the sexism of the Davies era. Since many people came into Series Five having only seen nuWho, their enjoyment of the show...

How do you actually pronounce Les Misérables? I’ve heard a number of different ways and I want to do it right. I know no French, so I’m pretty horrible at pronunciations. In fact… could we get a pronunciation guide for names? For a long time I was reading Enjolras’s name as though it were Spanish until I realized that was dumb. MORE PHONOLOGY THAN YOU EVER WANTED TO KNOW, COMING RIGHT UP! ...

the world's oldest ship war
Aeschylus: Achilles goes on top.
Plato: No; definitely Patroclus.
Xenophon: They were just friends.
Plato: Shut up, Xenophon.
Aeschines: It's practically canon.
Aristarchus: I know it looks canon, but Homer didn't write that - someone added it later.
Shakespeare: It's canon.

Doctor Who s7 filming photos!
http://insidemediatrack.com/2012/05/30/spoilers-doctor-who-ep-11-filming-pics-jenna-louise-colemans-character-name-revealed/ ELEVEN GETS A WAISTCOAT. AND A FROCK COAT. HOT DAMN. Also, in bizarre fandom crossover news, Ruthie Henshall will be putting in an appearance as a minor character this season.  Which means any prospective ‘six degrees of separation’ games will no longer have to...

wanderingchild: Hey y’all complaining about Les Mis “spoilers”: The novel has been out for over 150 years. It’s not like SPOILER ALERT SNAPE KILLS DUMBLEDORE anymore. That was so 1862. SPOILER ALERT: The horse is full of Greeks!

Ask Box: The Ainley!Master's Sexuality
fucknodoctorten: While I could possibly buy some argument somewhere that a guy wearing the world’s most fabulous velvet frock coat as he stalks a man across space and time might be heterosexual, I can’t think of that many straight guys I know who spend their time luring hard-bodied, pink-a-shirt-wearing young men from local wrestling clubs to a place where they can “give into their primal...

I think I might ship Loki/Black Widow...
maverek: Oops? I don’t ship it in the sense of thinking there’s any romantic possibility there whatsoever… …but shipping it in the sense of wanting MOAR INTERACTION, preferably with more fucked-up sexual manipulation on both sides?  Move over, East India Company, you’ve got competition! (Then again, I also sorta ship Ten/Martha/Master in the same way, so I am in...

Just rewatched Utopia.
queelez: mumblingsage: tenlittlebullets: dolblathanna: tenlittlebullets: The use of soundtrack in Utopia made me almost fucking bawl last time I watched it.  It’s not just that This is Gallifrey plays the first time Ten and Yana lock eyes, it’s that that’s the very first time you ever hear it.  You don’t even get it in Gridlock when Ten is describing his home planet in loving detail and...

Just rewatched Utopia.
mumblingsage: tenlittlebullets: Oh yeah, definitely that too.  I’m probably the only Doctor/Master shipper in existence who doesn’t think they were BFFs back at the Academy, but even if they were rivals, there must’ve been a sense of “dammit, I don’t trust you any further than I can throw you, but we’re the only ones brilliant and unconventional enough to understand each other and we’d do...

Just rewatched Utopia.
dolblathanna: tenlittlebullets: headingforcamelot: And I realized that the music when the Doctor meets Professor Yana is This Is Gallifrey! Which, for anyone who has heard the song and knows its name, is pretty much foreshadowing! Most of you have probably already found this out, but I needed to share it nonetheless. The use of soundtrack in Utopia made me almost fucking bawl last...

My Thoughts on River Song
fucknodoctorten: Okay. Finally finished Series six and I’m ready to tackle the problem of River Song (as people have asked for my input on her). I freely admit that the past season has put something of a dent in my appreciation for her, and while I still find her a much more compelling love interest than Rose, I’m not entirely certain of how I feel about the current state of her “marriage.” That...

thehighestpie: djlivliv: Just started Balzac’s Lost Illusions. Is Lucien basically a facsimile of Eugène de Rastignac, or…? He and David Séchard are so completely ridiculous together! I need Vautrin to liven this shit up stat. …Lucien’s prettier?  Wait, I know there are important differences between the two.  But not important enough for me to be remembering them. You’ll be waiting a while...
