The_Doctor posted:Looks more mid 20th century. Oh god is that leak about her incarnation being split across three points in time gonna be true? I know it's a time travel show but her falling out of the Tardis did make me think she'd be stranded and reminded me of it.

Chibnall also wrote the episodes of Life on Mars about a suspect dying in custody and Sam meeting his mentor: the first black cop on the force. It MIGHT be fine?

So long as someone doesn't say "You're a credit to your race" and have one of our heroes throw shade with a "Y-You too" then it's better than I imagine.

I feel like a lot of things this season have been described as "the most dangerous creature in the universe."

If that leak is true and his appearance isn't just a multi-Doctor thing then this is legitimately the worst to me and hugely cynical.

I find it hard to not be cynical when RTD exits with Tennant regenerating and then RTD returns with Tennant regenerating and isn't somehow poo-pooing 3+ Doctors and a decade or 70% of the nu-Who he was absent from. I know for a fact that a bunch of people want to watch DW for the first time because of the Ncuti announcement, and I feel like they're going to be disappointed with this nostalgia focus; and likewise, the mainstream audience who're getting baited by Tennant returning are going to bounce hard off once he turns into Ncuti (see also racism). I feel like it's going to be a disservice to everyone.

Big Mean Jerk posted:Man, assuming the leaks are most likely correct now, I really hate the idea of the first (series lead anyway) black Doctor a) having to exist while Tennant 2.0 also still exists and b) not getting 14’s Tardis but instead having to use his Toymaker victory wish to create his own Tardis. It feels really cowardly to not just have Gatwa be the only current Doctor and to instead have Tennant stick around for other adventures at the same time. You’re forcing Gatwa to start what should be his era as The Doctor while under the shadow of an older very popular Doctor. Not to mention all the right wing culture warrior horseshit practically writes itself and will be inescapable, “he’s not the REAL doctor!” “it’s not the REAL Tardis!” etc. I did read per RTD he had Tennant regenerate with a costume because he didn't want Tennant to be seen wearing womens' clothes and appear laughable (which is weird to say in general with the overall LGBT lean but especially since Whitaker's costume wasn't particularly feminine to begin with??) so I wouldn't be entirely surprised if having Gatwa materialise in his own body instead of overwriting Tennant is due to some similarly weird "it'd look like Tennant in blackface for two frames" neurosis. But to be entirely fair, we haven't seen it and the execution might be better than it reads. Because loving surely to gently caress, right?

Big Mean Jerk posted:Smith to Capaldi consisted of a violent sneeze and instant regeneration, there’s definitely already previously-established ways to go from Tennant to Gatwa without having to worry about accidental blackface during the fx transition. Absolutely. But RTD does strange poo poo.
