Destiny isn’t done with them just yet… Doctor Who returns with three special episodes ❤️❤️➕🔷
I definitely fliched slightly at Avengers Unit tower. I think sadly enough, Dr Who is and has always been a superhero really, it depends how you define one. As long as the cumulative moment isn't a bland battle (I have no idea how this would ever be the compelling choice in Dr Who), I can keep hoping that it's gonna be fine.
No, no - not just that aspect, I mean the high budget & (absolute, monetary) production value.
When projects like this get very moneys strings tend to get attached to that money, ie return on investment demand, broad(er) target audience, etc … which often includes bullshit storyline or vast & illogical changes to the story just for the sake of one scene 'looking cool'.
Eg I really don't care if they are shown arriving in a helicopter (cool epic scene adding 0 value to the story) or just appearing in a room saying they arrived by helicopter (classic Doctor Who & even the reboot did that a lot in favor of minimalistic budget).
I think that they want to go for a big, epic, nostalgia-heavy trio of specials to entice people back in before Ncuti comes into the full series next year. I saw the tower and it’s the single part of the trailer that’s sticking with me. I always loved the first RTD era for it’s somewhat grittier, critical view of UNIT in the context of the rising surveillance state of the early 2000s, so this tower seems like an extension of that viewpoint, given how entrenched said anti-terrorist dogma has gotten.
Ok … but … feels like very Marvel-audience-targeted … I'm scared :(
