Interesting.
This is actually really interesting.
I love that he pointed out that it’s different when men and women are objectified on film, not only because of the way our society views men and women, but also in the specific way those shots are framed.
When consuming media it’s so important to remember that filmmakers and ad companies have so many tools at their disposal that the average viewer is not even aware of. The way a scene is set, the way the camera moves, which parts of a person are included in the fame, the number of seconds the camera views each particular part of a person. All of these things very subtly evoke responses from us. We don’t notice them because we aren’t supposed to notice them—if they are doing their job right, everything feels seamless and correct to the viewer. And even if we do notice, we may not be able to articulate it because most of us haven’t studied filmmaking techniques.
If you think you are 100% impenetrable to the effects of the content you view, you are deluding yourself.

You know this song word for word
THE DOCTOR’S STUCK IN THA PANDORICA, AMY MIGHT BE DEAD AND RORY’S A ROMAN WITH A GUN INSIDE HIS HAND. SEEMS LIKE THINGS AREN’T GOING AS PLANNED.
RIVER’S IN THE TARDIS, THE TARDIS IS ON FIRE, SHE’S FEELING THE HEAT ON REPEAT SHE’LL REQUIRE, SOMEONE SHE CAN TRUST, SOMEONE WITH A BOW TIE BUT HE’S BEEN LOCKED UP AND LEFT TO DIE
OH MY GOD WHAT WILL THEY DO? THIS SEEMS IMPOSSIBLE TO GET THROUGH. MY MIND IS BLOWN I BET YOURS IT TOO. WELL, I GUESS THIS IS DOCTOR WHO.
RORY’S QUITE DISTRESSED AND HE STARTS TO SOB, WHEN THE DOCTOR APPEARS WITH A MOP, GET ME OUT OF THE PANDORICA, BUT YOU AREN’T IN THE PANDORICA, YES I AM, WELL, YES I WAS IT’S COMPLICATED BUT I WON’T EXPLAIN IT NOW BECAUSE, THEN HE DISAPPEARED INTO A HAZY FUZZ, THAT MAN WHO CAN’T EXPLAIN WHY HE DOES THE THINGS HE DOES
OH MY GOD I DON’T HAVE A CLUE THIS PARADOXES ARE HARD TO CONSTRUE, MY MIND IS BLOWN I BET YOURS IS TOO, WELL I GUESS THIS IS DOCTOR WHOOO. IT’S THE BIG BANG 2 AND I NEED TO REVIEW WHAT ON EARTH JUST HAPPENED BEFORE MY EYES, TIME HAS GONE ASKEW THE UNIVERSE HAS TOO, I’LL TRY TO EXPLAIN TO YOU THE BIG BANG 2. THE BIG GANG TWO.
THE DOCTOR’S GOT RIVER’S VORTEX MANIPULATOR, WHICH HE’LL USE TO MEET RORY TWO THOUSAND YEARS LATER. WHEN THEY FIND AMY AFTER HER SLEEP IN THE BOX, THEY REALIZE THE SUN IS REALLY THE EXPLODING TARDIS. DOCTOR SAVES RIVER FROM THE IMITATING STAR, WOMAN WATCHES BACK CAN’T HELP BUT POINT OUT THE OBVIOUS…
OH MY GOD HE’S WEARING A FEZ, OH MY GOD HE’S WEARING A FEZ, OH MY GOD HE’S WEARING A FEZ, OHMYGODHE’SWEARINGAFEZ. DALEK POPS UP OUT OF NOWHERE, SHOOTS THE DOCTOR KILLS HIM QUITE UNFAIR, HE JUMPS BACK 12 MINUTES TO THE STAIRS. HE’S DEAD, AND EVERYONE DESPAIRS.
LITTLE DO THEY KNOW THE DOCTOR LIES, HE’S GONE STOPPING THE UNIVERSE’S DEMISE, AMY SAYS HER LAST GOODBYES, THE DOCTOR FLIES UP INTO THE SKIES. THE UNIVERSE IS BACK IT’S TRUE, BUT THE DOCTOR SAID HIS FINAL ADIEU, MAYBE YOU’LL COME BACK IF SHE REMEMBERS YOU
ITS THE BIG BANG TWO AND I NEED TO REVIEW WHAT ON EARTH JUST HAPPENED BEFORE MY EYES, TIME HAS BEEN RENEWED THE UNIVERSE HAS TOO, BUT AMY STILL CAN’T HELP BUT CRY. THERE’S SOMEONE MISSING, THE QUESTION’S WHO?? THEN SHE REMEMBERED SOMETHING OLD, SOMETHING NEW, SOMETHING BORROWED, SOME THING BLUEEEEEEEEEEEEE AND THATS THE BIG BANG TWOOOOOO
i hope it didn’t confuse YOU.

Rose is open, honest, heartfelt, to the point of being selfish, wonderfully selfish. Martha is clever, calm, but rarely says what she’s really thinking. Donna is blunt, precise, unfiltered, but with a big heart beneath all the banter.
But we come back to what I was saying ages ago about turning characters.
If Rose can be selfish, then her finest moments will come when she’s selfless. If Martha keeps quiet, then her moments of revelation – like her goodbye to the Doctor in Last of the Time Lords, or stuck with Milo and Cheen in Gridlock – make her fly. Donna is magnificently self-centered – not selfish, but she pivots everything around herself, as we all do – so when she opens up and hears the Ood song, or begs for Caecilius’ family to be saved, then she’s wonderful.
