    So what we've learned is that even an ironic and insincere Dr. Who argument is still nerdy and obsessive as fuck.

    You gotta realize, I'm the guy who scoffed when they killed Steve Rogers when I'm not even that emotionally invested in the character, because Captain America IS Steve Rogers. Nobody else can be Captain America.

    It's a lot less about the fact that there needs to be a dick in that I have pretty boring and unwavering opinions about my heroic archetypes.

    What if he regenerates into a transgendered person who is biologically female but still has a male mind? Would that be okay? (not intended to be as snarky as I realize it seems)

    YOU ARE THE REASON DONALD GLOVER DIDN'T GET PICKED FOR SPIDERMAN.

    As long as he's called Peter Parker and has Peter Parker's origin I don't give a fuck about skincolor son so you're WRONG.

    What about Robin, Ludious?

    Do you not care about who Robin is behind the mask?

    Batman is not Bruce Wayne, Batman is a vigilante with a cowl. And gadgets.

    I think a female Doctor would be fine, not HBC, but a female doctor would be fine.

    Man, HBC is perfect for that role. Why do you disagree with this obvious truth?

    Man I am so sick of this woman. She plays the same gimmick in everything!

    YOU DID NOT JUST IMPLY WHAT I THINK YOU IMPLIED! Because if you did imply what I think you implied, I will fly to Alaska to rip your balls off and shove them down your throat. RAAAGGGEEE!

    btw

    it's been mentioned in Doctor Who on more than one occasion that Time Lords can regenerate into a different gender or ethnicity

    The Corsair, an old associate of the Doctor, was sometimes a woman, sometimes a man

    when the Doctor first regenerated into his 11th form (the current one) he was touching his physical features to figure out his appearance (wasn't a mirror nearby) and he ran his fingers through his long hair and went "I'm a GIRL?" in a horrified tone because clearly he has a preference on the subject, even if it's possible for that to go awry

    (there's a running gag where the Doctor keeps hoping next time he will regenerate as a ginger)

    You are correct. 3D movies are more expensive and rarely add anything to the experience. And often detract from it.

    Look. If I am a misogynist for this one, pin the label on me. But let's skip the argument and get right to the conclusions.

    also

    in Ultimate Spider-Man, Peter Parker is dead and Spider-Man is Miles Morales

    in DC, Dick Grayson has on-again-off-again been Batman at various points, particularly when Bruce Wayne was thought dead (but wasn't)

    Jean Paul Valley was also briefly Batman for a while when Bane broke Bruce's back, but since everyone hated him and was like "where the fuck is Bruce" they changed that and brought Bruce back

    and Terry McGinnis is future-Batman in the Batman Beyond series, after Bruce retires

    so basically Ludious you are full of poop on this subject
