Oh my gooodddd it actually boggles my mind how you can equate potentially saving his people to killing them outright. They are completely different things. If you can't see that then I honestly have no more words. Dude I have absolutely no idea where you're getting all this from. It was...

No, no it's not. Not at all. Failing to find them is failing to save them, not succeeding in killing them. It's two very different things. I completely agree - given the option to save people he would make always that choice. It's the fact that the choice exists at all - that one was...

Yes, I get that. The OP of the article gets that too. And considering it's a war that "ripped through all of space and time" doesn't it seem just a little bit odd that there weren't even a handful of Daleks or Time Lords scattered about, stranded or wounded somewhere not on Gallifrey and...

Ok I know I said I'd shut up about the 50th and I don't want to restart a debate that won't go anywhere but I just wanted to link this post because it's very well-written and looks at the issues both from an in-universe and out-of-universe perspective and it's just a good read and RUN-ON...

ngl I hate the idea that the Doctor started traveling with Rose because he remembered her in some way, even subconsciously. God forbid he brought her along because he was drawn to her bravery/compassion etc.

As my final word on the subject, I'm just gonna steal someone else's post from tumblr. Anyways, I've now come up with my own headcanon version of the 50th that allows for Gallifrey being destroyed but some of the Time Lords surviving, so I've (mostly) stopped caring about the retcon. :monster...

...except it was the right thing to do?? Like at the time it was either nuke London or let the Zygons conquer Earth, and given the options nuking London was the right choice. She was saving 99% of the Earth by sacrificing the 1%, just as the Doctor was saving the universe by sacrificing...

Also I found it odd that

The Doctor didn't, no, but Moffat certainly did. :monster:

wow now there's a blast from the past hi texas #2 remy :awesome:

goddammit tres that was beautiful But seriously, everything Tres just said. Giving the Doctor a magic way to not kill everyone just feels like a copout and, at least in my eyes, lessens his character. I'm not interested in a hero whose decisions have no consequences because he can just...

GODFUCKING DAMMIT I JUST SPENT LIKE AN HOUR WRITING THIS AND THEN ACCIDENTALLY CLOSED THE TAB UADJGAOIDGA okay shall try again

Gotta be honest, I thought the 50th was absolutely terrible. There were some bits I liked, but for most of it I was either just going what or are you fucking kidding or counting on both hands how many of his own plot devices Moffat recycled. The Five Doctors thing is great, though.

whelp of all the plot twists i did not expect

@Tenny: sheet music :>

Pretty much, yeah - it's like watching an episode with your eyes closed :monster: except the episodes are all ~3 hours long. http://www.bigfinish.com/hubs/v/doctor-who There are like a billion different audio dramas, starring a whole variety of classic Doctors and companions, so if you want...

oh man i'm so glad i started listening to the big finish eighth doctor audio dramas before the night of the doctor came out because i have a whole new level of appreciation for paul mcgann and eight and paUL MCGANN <333 (i just finished listening toooooo the 6th one of the main releases for...

ngl i'm really curious as to why rose is dressed like a homeless person
