Austro-Athenian Empire
"Austro" as in Rothbard and Wittgenstein, "Athenian" as in Aristotle and smashing-the-plutocracy.

River and Pond

Apr 14

By Roderick

Here are two more previews of the upcoming Doctor Who premiere. If you’re strongly spoiler-averse, you probably shouldn’t watch. But these are officially released previews and so presumably don’t give away the store.

 

 

I like the hostile way that Matt Smith curls his lip when he says “I love a bad girl, me.” To play the Doctor, you need to be goofy and zany; but you also need, sometimes, to be icy cold and menacing. Smith hasn’t gotten to do that too often, but he’s very good at it when given the opportunity.

In related news, here’s what you get if you merge the faces of all eleven incarnations of the Doctor from 1963 through the present. And yes, I really can see most of them in there (though I’m not sure I’m seeing all of them).

The Empirical Me

I’m Roderick T. Long, Professor of Philosophy at Auburn University. I’m an Aristotelean/Wittgensteinian in philosophy and a left-libertarian market anarchist in social theory. (More about me here.) This blog, Austro-Athenian Empire, is a continuation of my earlier blog, archived here.
