Doctor Who and the Silurians

I rewatched this seven episode serial over two evenings, on 30 and 31 January 2023. I read the novelisation, The Cave Monsters, back in the day.

The serial begins with a couple of men down in a cave attacked by some roaring monster. We switch to the Doctor tinkering with Bessie, the bright yellow vintage car that becomes a staple of the show with the TARDIS out of action. The Doctor and Liz work well together, but the Doctor is already impatient with the Brigadier. For all his open-mindedness with the Doctor and weird things from outer space, the Brigadier is bashing up against an establishment famous for its passive aggressive obstinance. I think the Doctor's reacting against the Brigadier's reaction to his superiors. Anyway, despite protests, the Doctor and Liz are on their way to an atomic power laboratory built deep in a cave system under English moorland. There’s weird stuff going on, with high stress rates among the staff members and power fluctuations in the reactor. 

It has a great cast, as disappointingly white as it is. Mostly men, but not all.

Doctor Who is pretty good at showing division among various sides in conflict. It’s less sophisticated about colonialism, but this serial makes a stab at questioning elements of the nativist impulse. It’s not until episode four that the audience sees the Silurians for the first time. We get a bit of an indication as to their technology (more sonar and mind control bobbins) and socio-politics (not hugely different to that of Europe in the twentieth century). I am struck by the idea that the Doctor is exiled on Earth because he broke the Time Lord rules about interfering with other peoples. Here he tries to broker a peace between Silurians and humans. Let’s just say it’s a learning experience for him. Likewise, the Brigadier is on a steep learning curve and his betrayal of the Doctor and Liz really isn’t a positive step even though it is understandable.

It’s not all monsters (human or reptilian). Content warning for the biological warfare that results in an epidemic that rips through southern England and London. It’s dealt with by vaccination, contact tracing, and quarantine… and the power plant director is an anti-vaxxer and disease denier!! Gotta say the response in this serial is a hell of a lot better than what happened in the UK with Covid-19!!!

Doctor Who cops a lot of flack about dodgy costumes and sets. It is possible to watch it without obsessing over the relative quality of them. I tend to regard it as impressionist theatre rather than documentary realism. The colour serials shine a different light on production, that’s all. Having said that, the Doctor in his white t-shirt in the last episode isn’t what I expected. That’s twice we’ve seen his tattoo in two stories.

Yours truly, in front of the Bundestag in Berlin Wednesday morning, at the demonstration organized by Nuklearia to mark the presentation of the “Stuttgarter Erklärung”, a petition demanding the continuation of atomic power in Germany. Was this a wise use of €250?

Donatello's Inspirations

Rise Ramblings #91

So, I’ve noticed that Donatello has a habit of being inspired by what he sees and adopting those aspects into himself.

This system of integration is most prevalent when it comes to the people he loves or admires.

Take one of his favorite stims, for instance.  

You don’t have to look too far to find that phrase's source.

He admires and loves his Papa, thus one of his dad’s favorite sayings is one of his favorites as well.

This aspect of incorporation also extends to his beloved heroes.

One of my favorite examples are his signature eyebrows.

He didn’t have them, then he did. We know that he started drawing them on nine years ago (with a sharpie, lol) but I wonder where he got the idea for the eyebrows in the first place…

Before he knew that Lou Jitsu was his father, Donnie had already incorporated the man’s eyebrows into his mask. Therefore, one can argue that the adoption of Lou’s well-coiffed brows was not due to a simple familial bond. Instead, Donnie just wanted to be more like his hero, Lou Jitsu (and thought the brows were cool, lol.)

However, that’s not the only hero Donatello took inspiration from.

I was wondering what would jon hypothetically look like in your art???

Aaw makasih banyak that melts my heart :') and thank you also for asking because that gives me the opportunity to do this:

I think it would be so neat of Jon's superhero outfit to blend his Indonesian and Kryptonian heritage together! I like to think Jon and J'onn are close too.

The portraits Onoda gathered not only show the varied interior designs in the Plant’s apartments, but also their inhabitants. We chose to publish a select gallery because we were unable to find the contact information for many of the residents. Onoda interpreted this as the Obara Nori maintaining privacy even after the apartments had shut down.
