DW: Let's Kill Hitler

Aug 28, 2011 12:27

I. Have. So. Much. Love!!!!

Also? I want to watch/listen to Alex Kingston (who's a native speaker) say "Führer" another 50 times or so till I can say it properly. I find it a VERY difficult word to say correctly.

In no particular order...

I love that the ultimate theme was the Doctor, "the man who makes people better." And LOVE and PROTECTIVENESS being what shows Assassin-Melody that the Doctor is worth it, is not what she's been programmed. And I DID see the use of regeneration energy coming. I love that the "only one way I could" about his name turns out to be "when he's dying."

I love that he now knows (as he always needed to) about Utah.

I love that Amy had family rights to hear details from the death-bot. I love that I was right about the TARDIS teaching River how to fly her. I LOVE that we got the images of guilt-guilt-guilt until we got Little Amelia Pond being "so Scottish." I love that Matt Smith continues to play Eleven as a grumpy old man in a young body. I love the death-bot-jellyfish.

Brand-New-River!!! "Mels" being the best friend, always in trouble and spouting reasons why the Doctor did things wrong. "Mels" getting Amy and Rory together and hearing all about the Doctor from Amy all their lives/childhoods. I love that River, in any form, is sassy. And SHOPPING! I love the amount of awesome of EVERYTHING.

I love that River ended up in the 51st Century because they took her to the Cat-Nuns for care. I LOVE the Doctor giving her the diary. I WANT ONE!!!! I love that Amy and Rory got time with River/Melody since they won't get to parent her. I love the River-Eleven assassination attempts like like the Blom Fel-Fotch Slitheen-Nine assassination dinner. I LOVE Rory putting Hitler in the cupboard. I love the "clever lie" about "state of temporal grace."

I LOVE LOVE LOVE River all all ALL over the place. I love her declaration that she's going to "wear LOTS of jumpers" and her general admiration of the body and desire to enyouthen herself...only to mess with people. I love Amy and Rory and I love that, as they face death, they stop, calm, say I love you, and hug.

BEST. Line. EVER. "I was on my way to this gay, gypsy bar mitzvah for the disabled, when I suddenly thought, 'Gosh, the Third Reich's a bit rubbish, I think I'll kill the Führer.' Who's with me?"

And...just...SO MUCH JOY.

Short version: JOY JOY JOY LOVED IT ZOMG-RIVER-SONG!!!!
