Moffat wank under the cut:<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
selections from ranting about moffat last night:<\/p>\n
\u00a0i want moffat gone yesterday
: time of the doctor was a fucking shitstorm of an episode, matt deserved better than that and i cant’ fucking stand clara because they forgot to give her a personality. Also not incluing barrowman in 50th was a goddamn shame and a waste of an actor who loves the show
: …i get a little ranty about moffat<\/p>\n
i mean, time of the doctor, just, fucking ball of shit where moffat tries to be clever and tie everything together and it doesn’t work at all<\/p>\n
\u00a0he doesn’t pen every episode
: but a showrunner HAS to have a coherent vision
\u00a0there has to be an arc or a character doesn’t change and grow
: i mean, look at 10
\u00a0season 2 in love with rose, happy, exploring his new life, trying to put the time war behind him
season 3 – lost, ignorant of martha, mopey, finding the master and jack again and then losing everyone just when he thought maybe he could find a family again. Both Martha and Jack rejected him in the end for their own sanity and that was GOOD. For both of them
\u00a0Season 4 Donna, seeing the universe through her eyes, trying to not do to donna what he did to martha, trying so hard to be a better man…only to lose Donna too<\/p>\n
\u00a0then the specials and the Time Lord Triumphant and going seriously master level crazy before in the end sacraficing his life to save one man who believed in him<\/p>\n
eleven doesn’t have an arc. okay we have cracks, and silence, the lake..but those are exernal factors, not internal ones<\/p>\n
sure with ten we had torchwood and saxon and things going missing, but it fit into ten’s growth as a character, not arcs for the sake of arcs, you know?<\/p>\n
and thats ANOTHER THING
*adds another soapbox*
\u00a0WITHOUT TRUE DEATH CHARACTER DEATH IS CHEAP AND MEANINGLESS<\/p>\n
i fuckign hate that they brought gallifrey back
\u00a0thats fucking bullshit that damages the entire new run
to me here’s the thing
\u00a0nine saw his world burn. And was responsible. The last one left. He was bitter and angry and yet found a erason to keep going in rose.
\u00a0ten kept that guilt, but tried to move past it, then the shit with the master. he died knowing he was it
\u00a0eleven of course is mess, but he still caries that same guilt. HE knew he was the one to push the button, so to speak
\u00a0and now magic? gallifrey isn’t dead?
bullfuckinshit<\/p>\n
and i’m sorry, speaking not just as a barrowman fangirl, couldn’t you just as easliy had jack in the 50th?
\u00a0Jack HATES unit. he would NEVER just hand over his manipulator
to anyone
\u00a0he gave it to martha to escape the master, thats it<\/p>\n
as i said last night. Doctor Who isn’t\u00a0my<\/em> Doctor Who anymore. I’m a lifetime whovian i know things change, but good goddamn i’m pisssed about things right nos<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Moffat wank under the cut: selections from ranting about moffat last night: \u00a0i want moffat gone yesterday: time of the doctor was a fucking shitstorm of an episode, matt deserved better than that and i cant’ fucking stand clara because they forgot to give her a personality.
