Ok, Dr. Nick is a character on the Simpsons. I got that from google. But what does that have to do with coolboy96?

I bet Frink won’t like that graphic in the upper left corner.

It says animetoon.tv. So what?

Oops, wait, that’s wrong. That’s the second worst thing that happened to DS9. This is the first:

I think you meant:

oh come on, she wasn’t that bad.

Saw this on tv the other day. Amazing!

I’ve googled coolboy96 and Dr. Nick and I still don’t get it.

Hi, Dr. Nick!

Dr. Nick? His username is coolboy96.

Hello! Welcome to the forum. 😃

It’s nothing to do with any particular show runner,

I have to disagree with you here. The show runner can most definitely have an effect on the quality of the show. To say otherwise is to say that Lucas had nothing to do with the quality(or lack there of) of the Star Wars movies he was involved with. Perhaps I am misunderstanding what you mean here.

I saw a little bit of an episode this season. I can see the series is not for me anymore. The Master switching to a good guy/gal? It is ok that he/she murdered people because people eat meat??? Sorry no thanks.

I’m a vegetarian so it’s preaching to the converted in my case.
But it’s really a metaphor for ethical perspective and innate nature. As moral beings we see killing our own kind, most of the time, as an act of evil but as products of nature making that connection to what we may deem as lesser creatures isn’t as obvious. There is a similar problem for some when they respond to the eating of pigs and dogs or killing of creatures considered pests when a more humane option is available. The Master is an alien. He/she sees us as barely alive shapes that can be popped for amusement but her friend from the same species sees us as kindred. The Mistress seems to having an epithany (though she could be lying). She seems to be seeing us as more than finger paint. As a Christian Warb you believe in redemption for all, even Satan could be redeemed if he genuinely acted on regret and confession. Missy has been Conditioned to be Satanic. She claims to be breaking that conditioning… Very reluctantly at the moment and possibly as a deception. The Doctor wants redemption for all. He has done terrible things and feels if he can save these arch characters he can save himself. It’s a surprisingly Christian theme. I’m confused why you wouldn’t embrace it.

I figured you’d respond with something like this.

1. I will never ever equate the killing of humans(sentient, a life that knows and knows that it knows) to the killing of an animal(non-sentient). I know we will never agree on this, so that is that.

2. Yes I understand that Missy/Master doesn’t equate the life of a human with that of a Timelord. But still he/she is smart enough to be able to see that humans are sentient. Also has the Master/Missy ever had a problem with taking the life a Timelord when it suits his/her purposes?

3. when/how was Missy/Master “conditioned” to be satanic?

4. I could be wrong about this, but I am pretty sure that Satan is beyond redemption by now.

5. You might as well try to redeem the Daleks.

6. There is a difference between how I view things in real life as compared to a fictional tv show. The fictional Master/Missy is beyond redemption, imo. Real life villain aren’t like character of the Master/Missy.

7. You say the Doctor did terrible things. What terrible things. If I am not mistaken, the only “terrible thing” he did, he has reversed so it never happened. Also did that “terrible thing” to end war that threatened the galaxy. He did it to save lives.

Which of Capaldi’s companions do you refer to?

Maybe. I know I am not a fan of the 12th/13th Doctor*, maybe I will like the 13th/14th Doctor more . I thought the regeneration was going to happen in the Christmas Special and I thought the Christmas Special was going to air on 12/25, not 12/26.

* Please do not mistake my dislike for the 12th/13th Doctor be mistaken as dislike for Peter Capaldi as an actor. Also don’t mistake my dislike for the 12th/13th Doctor to mean that I don’t think Capaldi could make a good Doctor.

he’ll be roasted soon enough. 😉

Damn Hitler, I didn’t know you were down with putting a Jew in the oven. We should kick it some time.

oops. I wasn’t thinking about that perspective. I am not sure I knew Frink was Jewish when I wrote that post. No offense was intended.

You’re drunk again.

You seem to think your opinions on movies are the correct ones.

People usually think their opinions are correct or they wouldn’t be their opinions.

previous post corrected.

Tell me something, what would you say I said that TPM is better than ESB? I am willing to be you’d think there was something wrong with me.

With Tim Burton you never know what you’re going to get. I think he was going in an interesting direction with Batman, and then Schumacher came in and derailed that train. Schumacher is another one that you never know what you’re going to get, but Burton’s poorer offerings are still well crafted and watchable. I still don’t like most of his choices in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, but I don’t completely hate the movie. The Oompa Loompas fall into Jar Jar territory for me. Lacking the charm the 70s versions had, but I digress…

Burton should be shot for “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory”. Johnny Depp as Willy Wonka??? “P-P-Parents”?? Fortunately, there already existed a good film of the book.

Don’t get in a wad, I’m just joking.

People are saying it won’t work and everyone knows it.

All I wanted to say was I wanted to see Billy Dee’s take on Two Face, as the 1989 film cast him as Harvey Dent. I wasn’t the only one with a reasonable expectation back then that he would become Two Face in a sequel.
If anybody had a problem with his casting back in 1989, I don’t recall it.

Continue to suck any fun out of this thread without me.

I didn’t know anything about Harvey Dent/Two Face back then, if I had, I would have objected back then.

Would a white Uhura and/or Sisko work?
