1. Yesterday afternoon, we saw J.J. Abrams' Star Trek: Into Darkness, and I loved it. Delightfully superb! Do not listen to the nay-sayers.
2. Yes, I'm very sorry to hear that Christopher Eccleston will not be part of the Doctor Who 50th Anniversary Special. The Constant Reader will recall that Nine is MY Doctor. But to these people who are acting

loved the Matt Smith episodes with Amy Pond and Rory best
Gotta admit, I loved Amy, and I hated Rory with a white hot passion.
and got pretty burned out on David Tennant.
I loved Tenant to the end, and I was sorry to see him go.

In the Navy, the difference between a fairy tale and someone telling you a true story is that a fairy tale begins with "once upon a time" and the sea story begins "This is no shit" ..
One must listen to the story to know the difference..

but in the Season finale they announced the next Doctor will be John Hurt.
I haven't seen a finalized announcement. Everything I've read is along the lines of:
And as 73-year-old Hurt turned round, the words "introducing John Hurt as The Doctor" flashed on-screen. But it is not entirely clear if Hurt is expected to become part of the weekly series.

There is a lot of speculation about who John Hurt is.

I am disappointed about him not appearing, though I certainly respect his right to decline. I'm probably closer to pissy about the Doctors who want to be on the special but aren't being asked. But that's possibly misinformation, albeit straight from those Doctors' mouths. Steven Moffat's known for spreading inaccurate info, which I kind of respect. I'm not sure it's entirely impossible Eccleston is going to be in the special.
Also, he's still the coolest Doctor ever
What, not Colin Baker? (Kidding)

I've really not read much about this.

I do agree it's a shame that actors who wanted to be included weren't. But, too, surely there was only so much space within the story.
McCoy goes to conventions in full costume
I have to admit this is sort of...sad.
