The Only Word I Can Think Of To Describe The Mysterious Benedict Society Tv Show Is:

Um...I have a few thoughts about this episode. It's not entirely negative because I think I liked it... but still.

The big thing is obviously the bi-generation and the splitting of the TARDIS. We have seen that the TARDIS is a living being with a personality. It even got a human form and confessed it's feelings. So what does splitting it do?

Also, New Who has made it a point to make REgeneration a big moment for all of us. We are saying goodbye to a face for good. If they ever reappear, it's at an earlier point in that Doctor's history. We will not get any REAL new stories from the timelines perspective. A favorite doesn't return return unless visiting them in the Doctor's mind.

Does Bigeneration cheapen our emotional connection to a certain Doctor? A Doctor that we've tuned in to watch each week for several seasons and then cried as they come to terms with being replaced. The monolouges and goodbyes that were beautifully written to comfort both the Doctor, any companions, and us the audience?

And really, that's all I'm worried about. How does this change how we view the most beautiful moments of Doctor Who, old and new? The grief and acceptance we go through each time with a new companion or a new Doctor. The loss and beginning anew? I love checking in on companions from different runs.

But if one Doctor is settling down and one is still going on through the stars, which one gets the happy ending? Because leaving 10/14 to live his life and never checking in on him again, he's just like a companion or the severed hand Doctor in a lot of ways. And the now "main" Doctor? Is he not still going to struggle with the same things?

Lastly as just a side note, did the Toymaster purposely missgender Missy? Because she was dying at the end of Capaldi's run and that looked like a woman's hand grabbing the gold tooth that he had trapped "The Master" in after he had won the game. I'm of the belief that 13th's Master takes place before Missy because of the character development we saw throughout 12's run ending with her "dying" alone instead of betraying the Doctor.

I know the vote is far from over but I'm not seeing any hope with this one. I know I'm partly responsible because I voted for Mifune as well, but if I had known what the percentage looked like before hand...

There will be sad days to come for James Stewart enthusiasts. 😔

Propaganda

James Stewart (It's a Wonderful Life, The Philadelphia Story, Mr. Smith Goes to Washington)—the thing about Jimmy Stewart is that for a weird-enough looking guy, he is yet somehow SO hot and SO believable, ALWAYS. He always plays the same person—he's always, well, Jimmy Stewart—yet that person can be a murderer, a dark cynic, a naive idealist, the boy next door or an old man who knows better, and every one of those is hot. I would jump his bones in a heartbeat

Toshiro Mifune (Rashumon, Seven Samurai, Grand Prix, Stray Dog)—i love and respect my boi tab hunter (rest in peace you beautiful, beautiful man ❤️), but after i watched like 12 of his movies in a row on tcm last year, i ALSO love and respect toshiro mifune, son of a literal actual hatamoto’s (a high-ranking samurai) daughter, also very possibly related to the best judokan EVER, AND, he’s the guy who SHOULD have been obi-wan kenobi. the fact that he’s ALSO hot as hell just adds to his appeal.

This is round 4 of the bracket. All other polls in this bracket can be found here. Please reblog with further support of your beloved hot sexy vintage man.

[additional propaganda submitted under the cut.]

James Stewart propaganda:

"Ough I saw him first in It's A Wonderful Life, where he is very charming as a suicidal family man being absolutely crushed by capitalism. But then. The Philadelphia Story, in my opinion, should get the same kind of press The Mummy does for being a bisexual dream. Now I'm not really bi (not into women) and it's honestly up for debate whether i'm attracted to men or not, but COME ON!! The movie stars James Stewart as well as Cary Grant and Katharine Hepburn (and Ruth Hussey). Stewart plays a common working man, a journalist, to contrast with Grant's character, who is mega-rich. He is scrappy and hates rich people. Hot! They have a whole scene together where he's super drunk and being really physical with his acting, which I love because he is kinda wet noodle shaped. Hot! He carries Hepburn in his arms while singing Somewhere Over The Rainbow. Hot! He gets punched in the face by Cary Grant. Hot!!! In The Man Who Shot Liberty Valence, we get to see him portray an alternative type of masculinity, opposite John Wayne doing John Wayne. He is even more wet noodle-y, to put emphasis on his incompatibility with the rugged masculinity of the cow-boy, he wears an apron for a lot of the film, again, to blur his masculinity, and he gets shot. Hot! Also he's older here, if that's your thing. Long story short: He's giving librarian chic and The Philadelphia Story made me want to be poly."

“Here he is next to Grant, in what I believe to be a promotional shot for The Philadelphia Story. Please don’t get distracted by Grant (or do, i’m submitting him next).”

“He’s a nice guy and a good guy and deserves all the happiness and joy ever! Classic boy next door/class president kid that everyone loves for real. Stand-up for the Little Guy vibes. With a charming fun side!!”

Toshiro Mifune propaganda:

"In addition, he spoke fluent mandarin and every time he was casted in foreign films, he said his lines in the language of the movie (although they ended up dubbing him. He wasn’t happy about it though).”

Also submitted: this video (yes, that one)

"Crucial Toshiro Mifune propaganda: THOSE LEGS."

"That is hella muscle. Go watch The Hidden Fortress, aka Star Wars A New Hope. His thighs deserve an award."

I'm using up 3 of my movie choices to give a crash course of M*A*S*H to my boyfriend so I don't have to watch the finale by myself. The first two will be to introduce him to the characters, and the last one will be the finale.

Listen. I am a huge Stargirl fan and I will go to the grave saying how it deserved at least one more season.

But I will also always crack up during the epilogue when Shade tries to say "the Nebula Man" in such a serious and grave tone. Yeah man, I'm really going to be shaking in my boots about a guy that's known as Nebula Man.

(I get he was actually super powerful but still)

Shoutout to that one user who posted a video/gif of two of Sutekh's robots killing a guy by smashing him with their boobs, but then I guess deleted it so I look like an idiot when I tried to find it to send to my friends. Count your days buddy.

Similarities between Columbo and Vimes:

Always finds the criminal(s)

Absolutely love and worship their wives

Cigar addicts

Always investigating/mingling with the rich, but doesn't fit in with that crowd.

Later has other, younger detectives following them around and introducing new ideas and techniques.

Short little guys.

Not to mention that Pratchett wrote something along the lines of "Being investigated by Vimes was like being nibbled to death by a duck." (I couldn't find the exact quote, but I know it exists somewhere.)

Which is a play on Peter Falk's quote about Columbo:

"Being chased by Columbo is like being nibbled to death by a duck."

This was fun. Thanks for bringing it up!

Vimes and Columbo have so much in common it's crazy. (They're both coppers and are completely devoted & worship their wives)

The fact that Fionna is bragging about how many post-apocalyptic RPG's she's played while Simon's telling her not to do stuff and he's ACTUALLY survived in a post-apocalyptic world for who knows how long before he went completely insane...

The background has changed, the passions have shifted. It's Quantum Leap time y'all.
