It’s super dark for a kids’ movie, ngl. When I was little I always preferred the sequel and the TV series, probably because they were more colourful and fun and I liked Sasha and Annabelle. When I rewatched them as an adult I was forced to admit that the series and the sequel are pretty shit, lmao, and the first one is much better — but I was also shocked by how dark it is. Child abuse and murder and gambling and alochol and all this stuff, I can’t imagine that kind of thing being put in an animated movie these days tbh.

ALSO YEAH. THE SCENE WHERE THE DEVIL TRIES TO DRAG HIM TO HELL. Jeeze.

I think objectively Jeff/Annie is less offensive, but I think subjectively Jeff/Annie ruins things for me a lot more than Eleven/River does, so I guess that means I pick Eleven/River. Jeff/Annie is like raisins in the otherwise delicious oatmeal cookie that is Community.

MAYBE IT’LL BE LIKE THAT FLASHBACK EPISODE OF COMMUNITY WHERE IT FLASHES BACK TO EPISODES WE NEVER EVEN SAW actually that’d be hilarious

anonymouscatt said: Also I never see people criticizing new fans for only watching b/c Karen Gillan is hot. So…

women are allowed to be hot and objectified by the audience without detracting from the SRS PLOT, i mean what else are actresses even there for anyway

however everyone knows a girl can’t be attracted to a man on screen without her brain melting out her ears leaving her incapable of rational thought and rendering all her opinions immediately irrelevant

which one is it?

It’s a quote from Mindy Kaling about playing the only Indian-American female lead on US tv. It’s a good quote, but it’s also a few months old so I’m not sure why it resurfaced now.

it was weird. like I thought she was just going to yell at him to shut up, and then I thought maybe she was just going to play off the kiss thing like “anything to shut him up”

then when he went for it I thought she’d shove him away and be like BYE but she seemed pretty into it

?????? idk i guess we’ll see how it develops, she’s never seemed into him before. in the halloween ep she did not seem to want.

Yeah, I’d like to see Jacqueline Rayner try her hand at writing an episode; I’ve enjoyed most of her novels.

Yeah, I’ve read a couple and they were decent. I haven’t read that many novels, especially the Eleven era, but I saw some titles listed recently and I know there were some other women in there too. And like, just in general, THERE ARE WOMEN IN BRITAIN WHO COULD WRITE A DECENT DOCTOR WHO EPISODE. I almost said “surely” but it’s not even a question.

I think this is on my mind because I was thinking about one of the episodes in s7b that I think sounds interesting, but was (inexplicably imo) given to someone with a bad track record. And I just… why? I mean, I know why, it’s because this dude has already made friends with all the other dudes running the show, so everything just gets passed among them. But it’s super frustrating as both a fan and a woman.

I don’t know enough about the writers to say what the racial breakdown is either but I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s literally 100% white.

 Not inaccurate, tbh

LOL lots of things make me sad when I watch them (well maybe not LOTS) but a simple quote doesn’t usually trigger the kind of instant reaction in me that it seems to trigger in a lot of other people (like “ROSE TYLER, I” — the scene is sad when I watch it, the phrase alone isn’t). CLEARLY I REQUIRE MAXIMUM CREATIVITY IN MEME RESPONSES. It’s also been a while since an episode of TV aired that made me very emotional.

That’s what I meant when I posted the meme and said to use as loose an interpretation of heartbreak as you wanted, btw. Like Karen’s horrifying dystopia, for example.

Hmmm I guess that makes sense. There would also be less opportunity for GLaDOS to talk about how superior robots are, lol.

BUT STILL, RIP MEL.
