Which era is that?

Seasons 9-12

Season 9 and 10 (being the last seasons of the show in my personal canon) have a few weak episodes, but I would say there are some great episodes in there which make me accept them

11 and 12 are weak though, but I would happily take them over most of the later Al Jean era.

In fairness, I did actually stop scrolling for a second because of that photo. That's the most beautiful I think she's ever looked.

She'll be at the Whooverville convention in Derby at the end of August btw guys, if you want to meet her in the flesh.

Make sure you pick up a packet of Kleenex tissues from Boots before you go, Burrunjor. Accidents happen.

Thanks but I've already met her at a convention. She's lovely! I didn't confess my undying love for her though LOL.

She also liked my idea of her playing She Hulk earlier on twitter. I thought she would be great because she could do the nerdy Jennifer Walters persona, and then be a big babe as She Hulk.

Here's her tweet.

I take great pride in having sent her the best tweet she ever received. Not surprised she was flattered at being told she could play this character tbf.



PS Ingrid Oliver is a much better actor than fucking Mark Ruffalo. I don't know how he gets away with it? I guess that can go under my unpopular opinions. I think he gets worse as time goes on. I found him unwatchable in Infinity War.

Ingrid definitely needs to play Caro Emerald's sister in something. They are as so alike I sometimes wonder if they are the same person just playing a prank.





They must be related!

Another not so much an unpopular opinion, but one that isn't spoken very much. I think Michelle Gomez is very attractive. (She regularly makes jokes about herself being unattractive, going on about her big nose. FFS when will women with big noses realise that it looks great!) I sometimes people don't think of her as good looking because she specialises in playing grotesque roles like her memorable rendition of Thatcher.

I know I hate Missy with a vengeance LOL, but to be fair I've never said its Gomez's fault. Its not her best performance. Its definitely too zany and OTT in Death in Heaven (like the bit after she's killed Osgood where she stumbles around looking drunk!)

Still about 99 percent of the blame for the character is down to Moffat's appalling writing, the concept of the character, and the nasty, misandristic politics that motivated the casting.

In other roles she is excellent like in the Sabrina remake, and Green Wing. Also she does seem to be a nice person, (and dealt with her critics tastefully unlike Jodie.)

It just goes to show why you should separate the art from the person. Michelle Gomez, a nice, modest, friendly women sadly did not do a good job at playing a gender swapped villain. Allison Mack, a perverted, evil bitch meanwhile did.

Brainiac changed sex in Smallville, but unlike Missy it worked really well. There was a proper story reason. Brainiac's old body had been destroyed, and he stole Chloe's. Also the female Brainiac wasn't done for an agenda, and Allison, DID match her performance with the male predecessor. Her Brainiac didn't suddenly want to fuck Superman or call herself "Brainiacess" or start getting weepy.

Still Michelle is very beautiful. Its a shame she was cast as Missy. At least we might get a spin off from Big Finish that's her and Osgood shagging.

I really quite like the twin dilemma and time and the rani not a popular opinion at all !

Yaz is the hottest NuWho companion. I won't say another word on her though because I'm not allowed to find females attractive anymore.

I thought the book of twin dilemna was good. Okay they are moving planets about willy-nilly but thats been done several times in Dr Who so its not exactly new. And at least they don't propose to tie a lasso round it and toe it round like a caravan which just looked naff (ala Journey's End).

For me some of the acting partially ruined the tv version. The twins were awful and some of the security force personnel were pretty ropey aswell, but otherie i thought it was okay.

TaTR had good sfx.

Clara is hotter. Unfortunately with a nauseatingly sassy, cheeky personality.

Likewise Martha is hotter and initially her character was okay bar the fancying the doctor "plotline".

Otherwise yes - Yaz is hot.

Unpopular Opinions:
1. Star Trek is better than Star Wars, whether it's the original, prequels or sequels. The only thing that has come close to Star Trek is The Clone Wars.

2. Platformer Games> Shoot em Up Games

3. Family Guy was never good. Big Bang Theory was never good.

4. Modern Animation is just as great, if not slightly better than 90's/2000's Animation.

5. Animation>Live-Action Media

6. Batman Vs. Superman is worse than Batman and Robin.

7. I hate the original 80s Comics version of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Could never stand the gore and the bloody grotesque action made me sigh, thinking the writers are just saying "look how edgy we are, with these wacky cartoon designs cutting up people"

8. How I Met your Mother is better than Friends.

9. Sonic is better than Mario when looking at individual games. Although as a consistent franchise, Mario is better than Sonic.

10. Films like Batman Begins/The Dark Knight, X2/First Class, Superman 1/2, Logan and Spiderman 1/2/Spiderverse are much better than the entirety of the MCU, because they focused on heart and effort. The only films that have come close are Winter Soldier, both Guardians movies and Iron Man 1.

Maxil is the best Hiver.

Timothy Dalton is one of the best bonds.

I like him even more then Daniel Craig to be honest.

He is very close in personality to the Fleming novels.

Take your meds and he'll go away, Maxil.

So do I. Craig is essentially playing Timothy Dalton's version of Bond rather than doing his own thing. It pisses me off that Craig gets the credit for what Dalton was doing thirty-odd years ago.

Judy Garland was way cooler than Audrey Hepburn.

I have never fully understood the appeal of Star Wars. By and large very boring movies - with the exception of "Empire" and "Revenge of the Sith".

Star Trek at its best could be much better.

Star Wars and Empire Strikes Back are some of the best movies ever made. The rest? Meh.
