Monster of the Day #3416

I looked for a more appropriate monster for today, but I couldn’t find one that said “Back to Work.” So this will have to do. Although I shouldn’t complain since it will be a short week. I’ll fly down to Dallas on Thursday to see Godzilla Minus One with Sandy and Wendy and Rev. Maybe next week those of us who see the movie can compare notes.

Anyway, I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving.

  • Daleks, Ken. Daleks say back to work.

    Is this the one with the plane full of dancing girls crashing in the Pacific? A classic.

    “Okay, now hold that flashlight so I can see what I’m doing. Yes, like that. Just a little more… Okay, lady, you’re free. And stay outta my web from now on. Do you bipeds have any idea how long it takes to spin one of these things?”

    I have heard of hunting getting in trouble for spotlighting deer. Not sure if spotlighting giant spiders is illegal or not though…

    And now you don’t have to feel bad about the problematic idea of Davros being in a wheelchair and thus implying that all handicapped people are evil.

    That’s literally what Russell T Davies recently said when explaining why Davros can just walk around now. Clearly Doctor Who is saved.

  • Technically this is proto-Davros. Technically the little skit he’s in is set before Genesis of the Daleks.

    Practically you’re potentially alienating your fan base by being a prick over a dumb skit, all while, in effect, painting a mustache on the Mona Lisa. I had such high hopes for RTD’s return, as, while he leaned, it seemed like he knew how to tell a store. Now though, nah. Gimme the old stuff or nothing at all.

  • Hey now, at least I finally don’t have to worry about Jamie fulfilling any ambitions to be a world class villain, since disabled people never aspire to those heights.

    RTD: “That building over there, that Wal-Mart. That’s a store. That building over there, that says High School? That’s not a store. That’ll be five dollars, thank you.”

    Speaking of pronouns, in the first new movie featuring David Tennant Donna dresses down the Doctor for not using an alien’s pronouns correctly, and laments that he’s not a female anymore.

    That really happens. And it’s JUST WHAT FANS OF THE SHOW WANTED TO SEE.

  • Geez, don’t remind me. If you have to tell people a character was great, then that character probably wasn’t that great to begin with. Plus there’s a little lecture about how a “male presenting Time Lord” would never understand “letting go of power”. Never mind the fact this is a character who, traditionally, not only never goes after power for himself, but also routinely refuses power. So infuriating.
