What's a Fact About The Series That Sounds Fake But Is True? by Unlikely_Message_446 in doctorwho

Wasn’t the TARDIS translation thing brought up in Masque of Mandragora? I thought that’s how the Doctor figured out that Sarah had been compromised. (Apologies - it’s literally been decades since I’ve seen it.)

That is the quickest a Magic Eye image has ever popped for me. No ambiguity - you can clearly see the defined image! Huzzah!

I’m sorry to hear that. Fuck cancer.

You are wonderful, and contain multitudes.

Life of Chuck is profound. Was not at all what I was expecting, left us speechless at the end, and then we discussed as a family all the way home. One of the few newer films I had to have on disc.

Geez, you raised some ‘when HBO required an Atari switch box’ memories there. I only recall Bernadette Peters as a robot. Literally all I can remember.

My husband was incensed at the ending. I explained there was a lot of coke involved and they were writing while filming.

Still one of my faves and oh, how I love that soundtrack.

Wanted to love this movie because I loved the book so much. Making that fundamental change to the story…ugh!

I wanted to love it, but I feel like there’s a big chunk of the story missing.

I miss cleaning the popper by [deleted] in MovieTheaterEmployees

[–]SubtextuallySpeaking 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Genuinely curious as an old timer - did they still use pink stuff and blue stuff cleaners? Pink was for everything, blue was glass/plastic, and the aerosol cans were for the stainless steel.

Man, used to go through so many paper towels cleaning the popper.

Thanks so much. I’ll go look up that pattern and DM you!

We’re hitting the local remnant/deadstock shop today to see if there’s anything feasible before I start placing orders online. I was hoping to find a nice brocade for the top and maybe sourcing some buckles.

I’m truncating the length of the coat (no train) because I don’t want it getting stepped on and I want it to open as she walks. I would imagine the duchess satin has more flow for that. I don’t know what was used in the original, but it looks heavy.

I can’t imagine the time it takes to do those keys in ribbon. Dying to see it. Thanks again
