Will he be using his accent tho? David did not use his scottish one.Doctress wrote:/twitch. I. So. Excited. Cannot wait to see how he does AND HE'S SCOTTISH. I LOVE SCOTTISH ACCENTS! He reminds me of a cross of Craig Ferguson and Dr. House.

There Cow, fixed your quote. I've seen "He's a Grandpa wtf." all over social media today and it just..

Agreed on both accounts. Personally, I think the older guy looks quite swanky and he has an impressive resume(look him up on IMBd). Doesn't need to be young to be considered attractive or a decent actor(Shit isn't RDJ in his 40s or 50s now?). And yeah, while I know Timelords arent set in their genders, the Doctor, personally for me, should stay male.Doctress wrote:There Cow, fixed your quote.

STOP. JUDGING. BEFORE. YOU. GIVE. HIM. A. CHANCE. K. THNX.
And to Junrei
^ This, I don't have anything against women(for goodness sakes I am one)I just personally, ME PERSONALLY, feel the Doctor should be a man. It just feels right to me that way but I cant really stand when people do that.. Like if its justified? Sure, but I'm sure it took them FOREVER to even pick the 12th Doctor and settle on someone they felt could fill the role.
It's a valid frustration. While I like Peter Capaldi, I was also mildly disheartened when I saw that the Doctor was going to be another generic looking white British guy. However, despite the fact that I'd like the Doctor to be a woman or a person of colour (or both), I do NOT want Moffat in control of that character. So, it's off to waiting again until the next Doctor.Junrei wrote:And prepare for the rest of us to do the collective eye roll for people being stupid like that(though most on FB didn't want him to be female at all).cowmuflage wrote:Ah guys any one on Tumblr should bunker down there is bound to be heaps of long ass rants about him not being coloured or female.

:roll:
Wasn't saying it wasn't valid. It's just there's a difference between people being genuinely disappointed and people just whining for the sake of doing so(WoW is no different in those terms either). And he's not British. He's Scottish.Nevish wrote:It's a valid frustration.

Eh, I'd like to think that sometimes the whining and genuine disappointment go hand in hand when you know you're powerless to stop something from happening, but you're still holding out on the small hope that it'll change. It'll stop soon enough, at any rate.Junrei wrote: Wasn't saying it wasn't valid.

You can express disappointment without the tantrums and whining. But I've already seen one person threatening to boycott Doctor Who cause it's not a woman or colored person.

And, really? After a while all of BBC becomes a giant blur of Union Jacks and thick accents for me. U_U
