So do we just go back through the rumors and try to figure out which ones, in retrospect, sound like RTD loving with us now? I have to say, I respect the hell out of him for doing the exact same dumb thing with that power that I would.

They didn't use the full quote (emphasis mine): RTD posted:There's been a few false stories out there and false tales and we posted a few posts ourselves, a couple of misleading things and we're very pleased that kind of worked. Not James Corden, we didn't plant that one. I never saw that one coming frankly, and I love James Corden. I talked to him about it, but we're very pleased.

I was secretly hoping for Richard Ayoade https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1D3e7t_wg1c And to be fair I reckon that wild as gently caress "Tennant is coming back as 14" rumour was pretty good as well.

Infinitum posted:What's wrong with James Corden? From what I can tell, he's just the kind of celebrity that has vastly outgrown his actual level of talent and charisma. He's just fine as the level of actor that gets cast in decently-popular musicals and Doctor Who episodes (remember those halcyon days when we liked him in The Lodger?), but as an actual personality he's just not a very charming person and is actually kind of annoying, and unfortunately he's mostly been a talk show host for the past seven years, so we've been subjected to that. He's an example of the Peter Principle when applied to entertainment. Which, admittedly, you don't see all too often.

Corden’s apparently deeply unpleasant to a lot of people he considers beneath him, including staff, crew, writers, servers, etc. There was a Gavin & Stacey reunion a couple of years back that almost didn’t happen because they had trouble getting enough people willing to work on it. Also he turned up to a WGA meeting and advocated for his own writers to get paid at lower rates.

You can't hate Rusty for being nice to him, though. Insulting the saccharine showbiz guy whose job it is to throw softball questions to celebrities isn't usually a good move for a producer who's trying to grow an intellectual property and, in all probability, find some new sources to co-fund it.

Like, yes, James Corden's face is probably in the dictionary next to "insufferable" and nobody in on earth will be surprised when a bunch of hideous skeletons come tumbling out of his closet, but for now, he presumably plays an important role for actors who wish to increase their profile, so it's asking a bit much to think that a showrunner, even one with clout, is going to suddenly say "gently caress that guy!" out of the blue, lol

Infinitum posted:What's wrong with James Corden? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NIBUWqSTp90 There was also that time he went to a Writers Guild meeting and advocated for creating a new writers position below the current entry level for his own late night show, with a lower minimum pay rate under the guise of "finding new talent". quote:I saw James Cordon at a supermarket in Los Angeles yesterday. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything.

I mean, listen, make your money, but it's not exactly setting the bar for comedy which comedy nerds have blessed as their space.

Everyone has to choose their own way to be angry about a world with James Corden in it. Some people tweet, some vow to scream in his face. RTD will simply have to settle for writing an episode in which a rogue Time Lord named the Milquetoast who looks shockingly like James Corden taunts his underpaid writers, threatening them by saying he's going to sing the entire soundtrack to Les Miserables at them, until the Doctor shows up with Leela and this time, he just nods when she pulls out the poison darts.

Apparently Chibnall had to scrap the original plans for Eve of the Daleks and rewrite it in a hurry due to the pandemic and budget cuts? I feel like this might have been mentioned already, but I completely missed it: https://www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio/2022/apr/12/pandemic-nearly-made-me-quit-doctor-who-says-showrunner-chris-chibnallquote:A planned final trio of specials – culminating in the Doctor’s regeneration this autumn – faced production and budget pressures, forcing him to pare down Eve of the Daleks, which aired on new year’s day. He had to ditch the original idea and write a new script in a week, he said. Considering that was his most liked episode here, maybe he should write all scripts in a week.

I write way better under pressure, so maybe he does too and never figured that out?

I'm hoping that the Doctor moves back to more insular stories, I miss the goofiness of the show from the 80's every now and then they would have some interconnected story, but overall it was just fun, I also think it would be cool if they brought back more classic Who baddies, like Sul-tek or however he was spelled from the Pyramids of Mars. That is one of my favorite Baker episodes. I also would like some more "Doctor-lite" episodes "Blink" being one of the best of those in my opinion
