Re: Doctor.Who
I feel cheap skated as shit at the last 30 seconds. What about the usual 30 second regeneration? Granted there was the huge one on top at the bell but still. And a repeat of the Tardis crashing, really? Seemed like a project you throw at on the bus on the way to school due that morning for that very last scene. The rest of the episode though holy mother of all Christmas specials that was one of the best ones yet!

Re: Doctor.Who
You're joking right? The episode itself was shit. It was so terrible. I agree about the quick regen but the goodbye. Oh god. Matts speech and then _______ showing up. I literally was bawling.
Re: Doctor.Who
Well I enjoyed the episode, as crazy and quirky as it was. It fit the Christmas holiday quite nicely. I was bawling too when Amelia and then Amy Pond appeared, to say goodbye to her "Raggedy Man." I'm looking forward to seeing Peter Capaldi's take on the role.clandestine wrote:You're joking right? The episode itself was shit. It was so terrible. I agree about the quick regen but the goodbye.

Re: Doctor.Who
I felt the Christmas episode was all over the place, but really liked the quick regeneration. I was hoping it wouldn't be too long and drawn out. I really liked the how do you drive this thing line. I can't wait to see what Peter Capaldi does with it. It's just a shame he won't be allowed to do some Malcolm Tucker style swearing!

Re: Doctor.Who
I personally loved the episode. It was definitely more all over the place than usual but I find that it fit Matt Smith perfectly as his version of the Doctor was a very all over the place style.clandestine wrote:You're joking right?

Don't get me started on the raggedy man scene, I was bawling like a baby. Although had to laugh at the terrible wig on Amy. Looked nothing like her actual hair.

Re: Doctor.Who
I also felt like the episode was all over the place. I didn't feel it was a great Christmas episode at all.
The regeneration scene was also just a total let down. Especially compared to Davids. I'm sad to see Matt Smith go, but also love Peter Capaldi so am interested to see where it goes from here. I'll admit I teared up a little. Doctor Who just does that to me somehow. I think it's the music. It's always moving.
Agree on Amy's wig. It was a bit too obvious!

Saw this on Facebook and found so funny yet true at the same time with the recent Matt Smith fangirls who know nothing about the show:

Re: Doctor.Who
Eeeeeeeeek, this has gotten me so excited! The first peak at the new series being filmed

I have a feeling Capaldi is going to be awesome and will bring back to real feel of the Doctor. Don't get me wrong, the passed three have been awesome but modern. It's time to tap back into some classic Doctor Who.

Re: Doctor.Who
What are your guys' opinions on Clara?
I really can't decide if I like her or not. She seemed like she was going to be an amazing character when first introduced, but since her introduction she has had barely any character development. I can't relate to her on any sort of level because I don't even know who she is, and how long has she been on the show? Since the beginning of season 7? It's very strange to me.

Re: Doctor.Who
I like her. I'm sure she doesn't have long left. After all, new Doctor accounts for a new companion. But for the work she's done I feel like she did a good job. I feel like she's a mix of the ditsy companions that the Doctor started out with in the 60's and intelligence/strength of today's companions. I'm really praying we haven't seen the last of River Song. God I love her
Re: Doctor.Who
Problem is that Clara has been lots of different people. She's that "impossible girl" who keeps dying and coming back. Most of what we've seen are snippets of her various lives and not a lot of the *companion* Clara.tamithomas wrote:I like her. I'm sure she doesn't have long left.

Re: Doctor.Who
I'm still trying to like Clara. I want to but... Meh.
They did keep Rose around long after the regeneration of 9...( Gaaa I hope they change Clara out! )
So is this the very final incarnation of the Doctor? Or does he start over at square one since the time lords zapped him in the Xmas episode?

Re: Doctor.Who
They gave him additional regeneration energy. We don't know how many he has now (probably just enough to last as long as the series does! .eleventhirty wrote:I'm still trying to like Clara. I want to but... Meh.

Re: Doctor.Who
I know right! Really excited to see what Capaldi can bring. I go back and forth if I really like Clara or not. Maybe it's because I was kind of disappointed when the whole Impossible Girl thing was finally resolved.
I've been meaning to watch some of the classic DW on Netflix in the break between seasons but keeping forgetting it to that lol.

Re: Doctor.Who
I don't really like Clara but I think that's because they made her into something too big too quickly, we didn't really know much about her and then suddenly she's repeatdly saved the doctor through his life? Eh, I don't really like that choice
I think Peter Capadali will be an amazing doctor but I don't really like his costumes, it's too impersonal and boring.
I still look forward to August 23rd thho

Re: Doctor.Who
That series opener though!!!! I am sosoosoosososo excited for the new series. I'm sold on Capaldi - his more mature nature is such a refresher from the childishness of Matt Smith (don't get me wrong, I still love me some Smith.) I also really liked the dark vibe throughout the whole episode, it was very different from what I've seen in a while. The mood of the episode kind of reminded me of the Waters of Mars from series 4. I'm not really sure how I feel about Clara at this point though.
Also **********spoilers********* I'm very confused by the Missy character that randomly appeared at the end. Kind of ruined the flow of the episode for me, but that was really the only thing I didn't like about it.

Re: Doctor.Who
^I thought it might be River, that was the only person I could think of at the end^
I'm confused why they made such a big deal about Clara finding it weird having an old doctor? like she's supposed to of seen every doctor and there's been plenty of old doctors so it shouldn't of been a big deal and her of all people should know the doctor can regenerate into practically anyone.
I'm also wondering if they're going to bring up Pompeii or not, I hope they do
I think Peter Capadali is a great actor though I think his costume is a bit boring and plain, quite forgettable nothing really memorable?
Overall I think it was a good episode, just a little confusing in some parts
