    Effy! Now there's a name I remember! 🙂
  2. Rooster Teeth to close down after 21 years. Remember when they did videos for COH Architect?

    And you are.....?
  4. You quoted Pratchett. Therefore, I now love you.* *Not actually love, love you, more of a platonic matesy slap-you-on-the-back, pals kind of way. You know, like Colon and Nobby. I'll even let you be Colon!
  5. On a separate note, I'm currently reading the novelizations of the recent three specials. They are a little on the light side, but they do add some interesting back story for a couple of the characters and really do help flesh out Donna's mum character!
  6. So...... Who the hell is Mrs Flood??? 😄
  7. As a lifelong Whovian, I loved them all. 🙂 I'm especially enjoying the hate and nerd rage going on in the usual places! It felt almost like RTD was just thinking of ways to troll the trolls at times! LOL I also liked that RTD didn't just handwave away all the stuff that happened in Whittaker's era, the Timeless Child, The Flux, etc. I like that he actually dealt with the trauma of it all. Plus, it annoys the trolls out there, which is always fun! Looking forward to the Xmas episode, and loving that it's back, properly, at last!
  8. Marvel opening figures have been getting steadily worse since Endgame with only a couple having big numbers. IMHO, I think it's partially because of how quickly the movies appear on Disney+, some of them are within a month or two, so no real urgency to see them at the cinema, especially with spiralling cinema costs. Seeing the Marvels, with just myself going and buying a large drink an a small Ben and Jerrys ice cream cost me over £25. It's just not worth it for a lot of movies now.
  9. I saw it, really enjoyed it. Another fun movie, all I ask for it 🙂
  10. I'm still gutted by his death. His co-run on the Justice League was released just as I was getting into comic books, and were just so ridiculously funny, nothing has topped it for comic book humour since, for me at least. There's an excellent retrospective in Comics Journal here as well, really well written.
  11. HUZZAH!! I finally got a chance to donate!! Been trying for so many months and keep missing it 😄
  12. By now, I'm assuming everyone knows about the official creation of The Whoniverse on BBC iPlayer? (Not sure how much of it will appear on Disney+, I'm going to assume all of it!) For those not in the know, the BBC has put (as of November 1st) almost every episode of Doctor Who and all the shows connected to it, i.e. Sarah Jane Adventures, Torchwood, Class, Doctor Who Confidential, K9 and Company and the new first spin-off announced today, Tales From The Tardis, not to mention a massive text database filled with info about the shows. Way too much to go into here, I'll link it here for people to read. Fantastic news for people in the UK, and, presumably, for all the fans who have Disney+, once we know for definite what's going on. Plus, we have dates for the new episodes as well, first one is Saturday 25th November, with the other two following on the next two Saturdays. One bad part of the Whoniverse that isn't the BBC's fault (sort of) is that all the classic episodes will be missing An Unearthly Child, the original 4 part story that started it all off back in 1963, due to the complete asshat who now owns the rights to those stories after his father passed away refusing to let the BBC use them. Again, lots of details, so I'll link that here as well Now, I'm all for the creators getting their due and the rights they have, but this guy is being an obnoxious, racist, homophobic pillock who has thrown a tantrum after the Doctor became a woman and then a queer black man and his twitter feed is all kinds of batshit crazy, so, sadly, it's not available to watch on TV. Time to dig out those old DVD's, people! Either way, the fact well over 800 episodes of all the different series will be available is amazing news for those who want to delve into the incredible history of the show 😄 EDIT: Just found out online, apparently the Tales of the Tardis series is exclusive to iPlayer, so sorry, y'all, you'll have to find it through your favourite Jolly Roger methods 😉 The reasoning behind makes sense though. Seems the series was paid entirely by the BBC, with none of the Disney money going towards it, hence it being UK only. I'm pretty sure it will end up on Disney at some point though.
  13. Erm, not that I noticed. It's possible, but it's a fast paced movie a lot of the time, so might have blinked and missed him! 😄
