Face of boa last word make more sense now then they did when he said them

i dunno if moffat lieing again or he stopped cause this is bad

http://www.kasterborous.com/2013/11/...regenerations/ here that article

I understand you can't go into detail about every moment of every Doctor. But how in the Hell do you just gloss over River Song?!

So, this year's Xmas special is apparently titled


THE TIME OF THE DOCTOR

I really hope that Moffat doesn't make this a habit where every episode is Something of the Doctor. We had Name of, and Day of, and now Time of? Seems like a little much.

I'm actually really disappointed with the new direction of the series. Yes a hero committing genocide is kinda erm...yeah... but it added so much gravitas to who the Doctor was. I mean the hero pushed the button!

You take that away and what do we really have left? And you can say that why does he need that hanging over his head, and to an extent I'd agree, but I liked the fact that the Doctor was a bit of an iffy subject in the world of pop culture heroes, it sorta suits who he is and I'm a little disappointed that the future of the Doctor is a lot more black and white than it was before.

I have hope it'll change with Capaldi.

So picking up where I left off on the 2006 series, its okay. Might keep waiting until I get to the next guy, this is only 6 episodes left anyway :lol

Actually, it makes perfect sense. Think about "The End of Time." Timothy Dalton said they were trapped, frozen in time and needed to get out. What happens in the new special? It turns out Gallifrey was not destroyed but frozen in time.

You should look at the bulk of Dalek titles some time.

Watched An Adventure in Space and Time. It was very hard keeping tears in. What a lovingly crafted tribute.:cry

I really enjoyed it and feel bad for Will Hartnell. I only watched the second half of it but it was still very enjoyable.

So we are actually supposed to believe that the Timelords were never destroyed at all?

Gallifrey wasn't, but Rassilon and his power-crazed war Time Lords might not have been so lucky.

It definitely gave us a fully fleshed-out look at William Hartnell, a man who wanted to be a hero to the children.

I can't wait until they have to do THE BOWEL OF THE DOCTOR! River Song gets a lot of spoilers in this microscopic adventure.

I am going to need this:

you aren't familiar with The Curse of the Fatal Death are you...

Considering these episodes probably form a sort of trilogy, I'm cool with it.

Cool with it of the Doctor. :p

Quadily. ... Quad.. There's four of them >_< Stupid words. There was Name of, Night of, Day of, and now Time of.

But I see your point. it's just Moffat has a bad habit of naming episodes something really weird :lol

I'm more counting the three-part finale to Matt Smith's run: Name of, Day of, and Time of.

Yeah, but at the same time no.

The Doctors changed their own personal timeline. Because of the paradox, only the most recent would retain the knowledge of the changed timeline. Which makes less sense since Capaldi made an appearance.

It makes little sense. They jumped a great many sharks.

The fact is NOW Gallifrey is out there. And he needs to find it and save his people.

Who would've thought a massive narrative shift would be so convoluted.

Makes the inevitable box set look cool

I can understand that.

Don't for get the death of the doctor title from Sarah Jane

I saw this and it made me want to collect Sonic Screwdrivers :(

More people should be familiar with that. Its some of Moffat's best work :lol

Again, check out these Dalek titles :p :

Power of the Daleks
Evil of the Daleks
Day of the Daleks
Planet of the Daleks
Death to the Daleks
Genesis of the Daleks
Destiny of the Daleks
Resurrection of the Daleks
Revelation of the Daleks
Remembrance of the Daleks
Evolution of the Daleks
Asylum of the Daleks

...yeah, 3 (or 4) "...of the Doctor" titles is nothing yet :lol

You don't already? :lol But I don't either, anyway, I just have the 11th Doctors and that Die-cast programmable remote.

By the way, anyone here who has not watched The Five(ish) Doctors Reboot really should. :D It was hilarious! Here's the official link.

That looks slightly larger in scale than it did in the Day of the Doctor. Still, it's pretty snazzy looking. :D

They're usually all a little larger, but that's okay for $30 (here).

Ah, I didn't realize that. I don't have any of them. Thanks for the info!

I can't afford everything :p

"The Empty Child"

This has to be the creepiest damn thing Ive ever seen, just those gas masks, not sure why but they are....

Oh and that one close up of Rose ;) :p

"The Boom Town"

Damn the Doc is a smartass :lol

Took some pics of the newest addition to the family...

Man, that Dalek is a thing of beauty. I'm thinking I might have to track one down. :D

Alright, Im liking this now, the final episode of Eccelson. So what is Harkness doing? Wasnt he in Torchwood?

Harkness didn't get Torchwood until midway through Tennant's first season.

Okay, I saw some of it way before I heard of Who so I wasnt sure about it.

Holy crap Daleks are cool, and scary as hell at the same time :lol

EDIT- So Im now done with the Eccelston run, now to see what the fuss with Tenant is :lol

Finally caught all the way back up to current.

I have to say that while I found Matt Smith likable at first his quirky whimsical attitude has really put me off after this long. After 3 Series of him I'm glad to see him go. I really hope Moffat is whipping the slate clean so to speak, maybe a little less of this whimsical fairy tale bullshit and get back to him being a sci-fi hero? Series 5 had more than enough mentions of fairy tales, thanks to the whole Pandora's Box story book elements. Series 6 seemed to lack a direction overall and honestly did nothing for me. Maybe a few episodes and the clever way The Doctor escaped his own death.

Asylum I thought was a fun opener for Series 7 but the idea of erasing The Docotor entirely from the Dalek's minds seems utterly pointless. After Moffat took the time to resurrect them yet again, after Tennant and his metacrisis copy seemingly annihilated their entire race, he squandered them. A couple of episodes, a cameo at the Pandorica, and then wham, a whole race of Daleks who have no clue who their arch nemesis is. Seems like a wasted plot line. The rest of series 7 was pretty pitiful until "The Angels Take Manhattan." Even though I'm sick to death of seeing the creatures by now it was a great way to finally kick Amy & Rory to the curb. Those two really were grating on me by the end of Series 6.

As for the Christmas Special with Clara I overall enjoyed it. Again, a bit much on the fairy tale side what with snowman monsters and the TARDIS in the clouds, but enjoyable none the less. She's a lot more interesting to me than Amy ever was and to be perfectly honest I'm not 100% sure why. But being caught up to date through "Name of the Doctor" I think it's safe to say this show really needs a jolt of life. "Day" was a brilliant way to celebrate the series overall and give Matt a little bit of spotlight for his doctor. But I'm ready to see Capaldi take a stab at the character.

Still need that and the awesome 10 figure you got :(

Quite honestly, I don't expect much to change with the series until Moffat is gone. He seems very keen on the fairy tale thing.

The funny thing about Doctor Who is that no one can really agree on what they want their Doctor to be. Matt Smith was my Doctor and thus my default template of the Doctor so I never tire of him even when his stories suffered occasionally.

And I for one, very much love the fairy tale stuff. :lol The less sci-fi the better and this goes for my other two favourite "sci-fi" shows too: Star Wars and Star Trek. I feel when shows become too sci-fi sometimes they lose that suspension of disbelief because they actually invite you to think of the science behind it, and it never actually works out that well.

The translucent 10 is going up on the BBC shop at some point. I'm not sure if it ships internationally but if you need a way to get it let me know :)
