Is this really the same Doctor who screamed out in frustration when the world was burning in [[{{Recap/DoctorWhoS7E4Inferno}} Inferno]]?''
23	-->--'''[[http://docohobigfinish.blogspot.com/2011/09/season-eleven.html Joe Ford]]''' on ''Series/DoctorWho'', [[{{Recap/DoctorWhoS11E4TheMonsterOfPeladon}} "The Monster of Peladon"]]

25	->''Rick Berman and Brannon Braga had given well over a decade of each of their lives to the franchise, and had seen all of that time and energy discarded by [[Creator/{{UPN}} a network that would not last much longer either.]] The duo had given everything to ''Franchise/StarTrek'', only to find themselves hated in the fan press and [[ExecutiveMeddling cut off at the knees by a new management]] that understood nothing of the franchise.''

28	->''It's an old story: a visionary director tired of constantly having to justify his mad-prophet vision to buttoned-down bean counters with calculators for hearts so he sets up shop on his own. It's gonna be different, this time, see? This time, the inmates will be RunningTheAsylum and making mad moolah in the process.

34	->''It just feels like after his debacle involving Mia Farrow and his underage stepdaughter, [[Creator/WoodyAllen (Woody) Allen]] is perfectly fine by running on cruise control. Whereas before he was always venturing into new territory and breaking new ground, now he says 'fuck it' and is content playing it safe with his drawer ideas. [[Film/BulletsOverBroadway What if a mobster became a playwright?]] Fuck it, I can stretch that out to 90 minutes and ride things out another year. A Greek tragedy set to [[WriteWhoYouKnow banal upper class New Yorkers' petty issues]]? Fuck it, I don’t feel like doing anything meaningful.''

Hackman slowly turns his head. '[[ThousandYardStare No, Ray. I don't think I am]].' He walks off of the set, starts running, and never stops. They have to finish the movie with CGI. (That's how it went in my imagination, anyway.)''

58
59	->"And we go through rewrite after rewrite after rewrite and the script doesn’t get any better and I see what is going on and I don’t want to be trapped in an office where we have hypocrites running the place. I can’t deal with this, [[CreatorBreakdown my health was already starting to suffer]]. So I started taking vitamins and nothing is getting better and I said 'I can’t deal with this hypocrisy'."

If you don’t spend time watching real people, you can’t do this, because you’ve never seen it. Some people spend their lives interested only in themselves. Almost all Japanese animation is produced with hardly any basis taken from observing real people, you know. It’s produced by humans who can’t stand looking at other humans. And that’s why the industry is full of otaku!''
