so completely out of nowhere the BBC has announced that Matt Smith will not be returning for series eight and that the Doctor Who 2013 Christmas special will mark his final appearance as the eleventh Doctor.
this is contrary to what had previously been stated by both the BBC and Smith himself - not too long ago, it had been stated that Smith, Coleman, and Moffat would all be returning for series eight.
there will be only two sets the first year, Malibu Tahu and Game Dev Tahu Pohatu and Kopaka will finally get married and adopt Takua Onua will be a horse just because. it's popular these days Makuta's real name will be revealed and it's Geoff, with a G, not a J, get it right crossover with Lego Friends new animations but due to budget constraints all narration and voices will be replaced by stock sound effects of dolphins will be promoted with an original song composed and performed by Death Grips the villain will be a tennis ball that some kid threw through your window and it hit your shelf and knocked over all your sets...thanks Jeremy Geg Fartshey will write the story, but halfway in he'll retcon romance and make Pohatu and Kopaka roommates and Takua their dog will be a record-breaking smash hit in sales and wildly popular with fans, but will be cancelled after the first year because Lego craves child tears
it's looking like I very possibly will be able to go?
and if I do, and if circumstances work out the way they look, then I'm actually pretty excited.
no guarantees though. still haven't worked out the details and it's possible things might change.
EDIT: officially confirmed for Brickfair! I still have to make the necessary arrangements but YEAH, so far as permission and stuff goes I'm totally set.
also if it's a continuation from the original trilogy and not something entirely new and different, please overwrite some of the more meh expanded universe stuff but keep the cool parts like Mara Jade
I'm trying to be optimistic, being a massive Star Wars fangirl literally since the age of 2, but god I have a terrible feeling this will suck
it was great, I liked it a lot, but I can't help but feel it's been seriously overrated. definitely not my favorite Marvel film nor the one I'd consider the best.
so I guess our definition of "controversy" now is "a lot of people talked about a thing"??
I've gotta say, the whole grammar thing is by far the least controversial controversy in the history of BZPower. it felt more like a BZPower fad than it did a controversy, just a bunch of people posting blog entries on the same subject while other people commented on them. unless I missed, like, an entire entry where some kind of fight broke out, all the comments and entries I saw were completely rational.
setting the bar for BZP drama pretty low there, guys. I feel like this entry is gonna end up more controversial than the "controversy" that inspired it.
