    Hackers is so good, it’s the perfect 1995 time capsule.

    That year was a good one for movies that are technically bad but incredibly enjoyable, somehow perfectly tapped into the cultural zeitgeist and have strangely great soundtracks, since Mortal Kombat and Johnny Mnemonic also came out that year.

    the doctor who tv movie. fuck you it slaps. its the campest thing in an incredibly camp series, nobody involved knew wtf they were doing, they were so busy desperately trying to appeal to americans audiences that they accidentally appealed to fucking nobody, and they wildly fucked up the lore in way that every single medium has been trying to retcon ever since

    its phenomenal, the main guy is hot, and it lead to certain novels and audiodramas that are, hands down, the best parts of the entire franchise. eighth doctor best doctor

      The TARDIS set in that movie is amazing.

      McGann got absolutely screwed and deserved to do more with the franchise than one TV movie, some audio plays and that one cameo.

        literally. the fact that they got some random actor to play the war doctor in the 50th special rather than you know, the dude that actually played the doctor that fought the time war was such a slap in the face wtf. mcgann day of the doctor is canon to me angery
