Not bad on unpopular opinions. I think we'd probably agree more on popular ones. Probably. LOL!
Probably! Though with this fandom, every opinion is unpopular somewhere.
I know most are in this fandom. And I DO love Ten/Rose like LOTS! I just shipped Rose/Nine first, loved Eccleston first and am currently rewatch-reviewing series one. Honestly, my love for Ten/Rose may increase even more to almost match Nine/Rose when I do the rewatch of their episodes
I can definitely understand liking Nine/Rose more. It's the same relationship, certainly, but there *are* inevitable changes that happen from a change in actors. Thank GOD RTD continued the relationship, though. I think it says something about the force of their bond that they did love each other through a regeneration.
My only thing is, I don't react well to being told Nine loved Rose more than Ten, but you haven't ever even implied that, so. :D
Heh, I've read some of that meta, LOL! You REALLY hate it.
BWAH. I think it's become a bit of an in-joke now, so I'm not even sure when I'm being serious anymore. Though there ARE times when I REALLY hate it. On the other hand, it makes me appreciate the brown so much more. XD
I adore Rose so much, and Billie's now my favorite actor from the show, but Donna just owns my soul. I mean, it's not Who, it's everything. She's up there in like the top three of every character ever created in any medium.
I don't think being enamoured with Donna is an unpopular opinion in this fandom at all. Actually, I think it's remarkable that RTD created three different women who are all strong and flawed in their own ways - with three separate arcs and relationships with the Doctor. How amazing is that? I'm impressed when a TV show manages to do *one* woman justice.
Speaking of, it's another reason I don't think he'll re-sign for series five. I know you think it more likely, but I just don't more and more, with interviews, comments, offhand stuff I've read from RTD, Moffat and Tennant himself. Mainly though, I really don't think he likes the Doctor as envisioned by Moffat and I don't think he's all that fond of the fact that Moffat basically pisses all over Rose and the Doctor/Rose relationship when Tennant clearly has no problem with Rose or their relationship. I keep going back to how he played the Doctor in SotL/FotD -- there was not one iota of warmth, attraction, interest, etc. in how he responded to River Song. And you know that Moffat intended that, but David DID NOT play it that way at all. I just don't think his vision of the Doctor -- and he's an old school Doctor Who fan -- jibes with Moffat's at all. So yeah, that along with a bunch of other small reasons, makes me believe (and I desperately hope that I'm right) that he won't re-sign.
I want to think that, but at the same time I don't want to be disappointed. It's so much easier to resign myself to Tennant staying on than to think he won't and that Moffat will have a blank slate. And I'm pretty certain the BBC is going to fall over themselves to keep him.
I'd desperately like RTD to handle Ten's exit, though. He feels so much like RTD's Doctor. It's almost wrong to think of anyone else doing it.
