Doctor Who - Oxygen and Extremis

May 21, 2017 20:51

Due to circumstances, I'm doing two episodes here.

Impressions on Oxygen
  • Nice and scary
  • Different twist that it was the suits killing people, and that they were not space zombies as the trailers made you think.
  • Also nice that it wasn't an alien force invading, but rather company greed that caused it.
  • Why would you give something that holds your life in your hands, AI capabilities?
  • Doctor using his respiratory bypass, showing that he is definatelty not human. Always good to be reminded of that.
  • Really different to make him blind. Always good to be reminded that he is not immortal or infalliable.
  • How long will the blindness last? The rest of the season?
Impressions on Extremis
  • One where you only really know what is happening to whom at the end.
  • MISSY!!!!
  • Now we know who is in the vault and why they are there. Not what they did to get executed though.
  • River Song's diary. Didn't the Doctor leave that at The Library? Is this the one Ten picked up, or has River not gone to The Library yet and just sent Nardole on a mission with it?
  • Another thought, are the flash-backs before the Christmas episode?
  • Everything after the opening credits is in the simulated world (apart from the flash-backs), until we get to Twelve leaning against the vault.
  • How long has the simulated world been going on? Does it run faster than the real world?
  • Doors went to the Vatican, CERN, the Pentagon, The White House, what other centers of power could the other doors lead to? The Kremlin?
  • Even a blind Doctor is a force to be reckoned with; as it should be.
  • Although, are the simulated people slightly different from their real counterparts?
Extremis needs another viewing. Looking forward to next week.
