Didn't know that Abel.

Lambert was trans

personally, I don't notice token characters (other people always have to point them out for me to see it) because all I want is a well develop character with their own issues and how they overcome them

I was told by my writing class in high school. Just relying on a single plot, you are just putting your eggs all in one basket.

And it didn't matter because she was treated as a normal character with her own faults, ambition, and character

Some people might not be invested in the main story, but they might be invested in a character's story.

(also didn't matter because she was alien fodder)

That is why it is a good idea to have a plot for all the characters, their own stories and struggles.

Alien was pretty progressive for its time, but it didn't ram it down your throat, they just made a good movie.

sometimes multiple plots become too much. Not everyone will realize what is going on until the very end, if they ever realize it

Hell look at star trek

That is why I actually... loved Dr. Who when I first started watching.

People loved it back in the day

The sub-plots.

you also run the chance of making the original plot line flat and boring

People don't care about whether a movie is progressive or conservative, they care whether it's good and interesting

Exactly Abel.

Or dependent on forcing ideology down your throat with half baked token characters like the new She Ra

if a story is well written, the sub-plots tie into the main-plot without anyone really noticing

My trans friend does not like the new She Ra

A post-op MtF

Did she explain why?

I am interested in her or his opinion.

"that new She-Ra looks like crap, they made her look like a boy."

Her exact words

That is it.... nothing about the character's personality or plot?

By the way, i dont agree with people saying the season of doctor who prior to thechick was progressive at all. quite the opposite, quite conservative. Yes, social justice showed up, it was made fun of in many cases

Nevermind.

in one episode they even had AI programmed to keep people happy killing people that are unhappy

season 9 and 10 were very in your face

with SJW shit

go back and watch them again

it was in your face but not in a supportive way

it was made fun of

I think that the newest doctor is doing a pretty good job, her acting reminds me of David Tenant, which I've missed

Politically correct trash

haven't seen much of it, though

havent seen this season yet. last one though like the chick seriously brought up that BS about food sexism. To be ridiculled by the doctor

The nu she ra has some of the worst animation I've seen in modern times

It's Tumblr color style

They can't even get shadows right
