As I said, I don’t care if it’s “official”. George Lucas would then have officially ruined Star Wars for me. But ever since I found edits that fix his mistakes, I don’t have to put up with him anymore. I don’t have to listen to Anakin whine nor Obi-Wan bicker; and I don’t have to endure CGI Sy Snoodles singing Jedi Rocks without watching Return of the Jedi in what amounts to 240p.
If you can do all that, does that mean I am allowed to pretend that in Doctor Who canon Timelords can not change gender or race?
Yes. Despite it apparently ruffling some feathers rustling some jimmies among the people here, I don’t see why not.
