...I'm sorry what? He resurrected the show. How is taking it from 'obscure 60s thing with Book and Radio spinoffs for nerds' to 'major TV event' ruining it?

Also anyone who hasn't seen his fantastic 'Bob and Rose' needs to get on that. It's LGBT themed and really good.

Pretty much. Despite all of the problems I might have regarding characterisation, plotting and vague racism, he basically brought the series and a good chunk of British television back from the dead. I might prefer Moffat as showrunner, but his version of Doctor Who would never be possible without RTD deftly embedding the show in the popular subconscious.

I love David Gandy
I have a David Gandy pics folder
. That gif is amazing!

We're going to my folks' house today to watch football. Every time we see Mom, she works a comment into the conversation about her "boyfriend on the side," David Gandy. I'll be sure to share that gif with her. I keep teasing her about how I'm going to get her a cardboard cutout of the man for Christmas. She's got good taste in men, I've gotta admit.

I really wanted his Dolce and Gabbana book, but it's SO expensive!
 
I love the "new" (as in when it came in 2005 or whenever) Doctor Who. I never got into the older ones as it didn't really interest me that much. I need to catch up on the show now though (I'm like a season behind).
 
did the casting team do a casting couch style interview to pick the guys for power rangers? it's like the guys on there all look like they did porn.
 
Need pics to confirm.

Blondie looks like he did gay porn. dark hair looks like he only does straight but could do broke college guys type stuff. girl looks like she watches gay porn only.
 
He's crazy cute in the first picture. I actually thought for a split second that was Joel McHale though, lol. Not sure why.

lol @ your descriptions of everyone after the pictures. I could totally see it being true though. :p
 
Not the franchise as a whole, no. But the Big Finish audio stories and Eighth Doctor Adventure novels were not mainstream media. NuWho inarguably was.

Ah, right. I was a little bit confused by what you said, sorry. :c

Although it is more popular than ever, seeing as the older fans still like it, and there's actually a major US fanbase now.

Controversial opinion: I don't like Moffat much because he threw much of 50 years of canon out of the window, or simply bent it beyond the original resemblance. I still don't buy that there's more than 13 Doctors. It was clearly shoehorned in just to make more money. I do like him in other areas, but I consider his Who interpretation to be separate from T.Davies' version, which continued pre-existing Who rather well, in spite of the huge gap of time between the two.

20 posts about Doctor Who and Masquerador is the only one to give any significant context to their opinion.

You all fail English Composition forever.

Golnei had some valid, thought-out points! :c

BTW guys, I am absolutely hooked on Smash. Just a pity that I bought the lesser version. Tsk. Still, I'm willing to bet that it's still gonna outsell the Wii U version, if only just.

In regards to the 3DS, will anyone else here be getting Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate?

Whoops. Didn't see it. My bad.
 
Oh? I think that this'll be the rare instance in which the big console version will outsell the handheld version. We'll see~



Longer answer: Why must we wait so long? Longer longer answer: Ice Beam sharks which inflate when hurt.
Actual answer: Capcom.

I'm okay with the wait, actually. Gives me time to play more MH3U and other games.

Thing is the 3DS install base is at least 8 times larger than the Wii U, and since the 3DS version came out first there's not that much incentive to get the U version unless you've specifically been following the game and know exactly what it offers compared to the 3DS one.

The U version will move at least some systems, and I imagine that the game will have a good sales/userbase ratio, but the two are highly unlikely to come close barring some freak console shortage on Sony and Microsoft's part.

I've already made all the Dire Miralis armours and weapons, and the Gold and Silver Rath stuff, too. There's only so much I can do~ Inevitably, I'll have to post a video on YouTube of me fighting a Savage Deviljho with no armour, like they always do. :c

But I played 4 on my friends' imported 3DS a while back, and it makes 3U seem crap in comparison. And 4U makes 4 look crap in comparison. The last great Capcom game, maybe...?

My problem is that I've been waiting for about a year, now.

Oh, well that's that sorted, then. Why didn't they put in all the effort for us 3DS owners instead? >:c

Heh. My friend and I are barely HR3 right now, and I've barely gotten to the High-rank stuff offline. I still have a long way to go with MH3U. Started with Tri on the Wii when it came out but I never liked it as much as I do now for some reason.

And now Bayonetta 2's online co-op will eat up some of our MH3U time... so good.

Only just? It's going to freaking obliterate the WiiU version. Not that I care, I'll play both :p

It'll kill so many circle pads though...

I think SSBWiiU will be a pretty big seller in the west. In the US SSB3DS got *570k this first two days while MK8 got 350k the first two days back in May so I don't think the difference will that big in the west. WiiU owners are big fans of Nintendo so big titles tend to punch above the weight.

*Nintendo PR sans digital and may include bundles.
