(no subject)
I'm trying so hard to hold off on watching Doctor Who but it isn't working. Screw it. It may be 3 AM but I don't have anywhere to be tomorrow so I'm gonna sleep in anyway. *goes off to watch*
ETA: OH NO THEY DIDN'T!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HOLYSHITMOTHERFUCK! IT NEEDS TO BE NEXT WEEK NOW!!
Isn't there a whole thing about regeneration not being possible when killed by a Dalek? Or maybe I'm making that up?
Also, DO NOT KILL SARAH JANE YOU BITCHES!!!!!!!! I SOOO need to watch SJA. Luke is adorable. I love how Jack started flirting with SJ right away and Harriet was all "Not now, Captain" which is SOO a Doctor thing to do. She's like Superman organizing the Justice League (unless we go with Smallville, where Oliver/Green Arrow organizes it and Clark is all "I can't right now...I'm busy with other random shit that involves Lana and angst and being broody and boring" but I digress).
Don't care about Rose being bitchy. She just did a huge parallel universe jump to find out she wasn't allowed to chill with the cool kids (due to lack of webcam). The run scene was overdone (even said outloud in my thankfully empty house "Oh no, not a slo-mo run thing!"). Still, she's got one goal in this universe, that's to get to the Doctor so stuff stops getting fucked up. Obviously she'd be a bit miffed to discover a new companion is on the scene (well, new to her). Anyway, the writing was a bit weak for her character. We can yell at RTD later. Once he explains this regeneration shit. (On the that "Oh no you can't regenerate" line, my belief is that a) when it happened the first time it was crap timing and now it will be even crappier timing, and b) she just saw the dude again for the first time in quite a while and now he's gonna look and sound like someone completely different--speaking of which, are we thinking the Robert Carlyle rumors weren't just a red herring? My ideal would be Paul Bettany next, I think. As I said on the board, I just want to see him in more stuff.)
I was expecting more of a reaction from Jack on the whole "That chick who made me immortal is back" but I guess the whole regeneration thing puts a damper on reunions. Oh RTD, why do you play with my emotions.
Martha is pretty badass. I wanna know what's up with that key. It looked like a mini-DV the first time I saw it, which made me think of 4D freshman year. Obviously Martha is protecting important film footage to be edited for Pratt TV consumption.
Yes Rose, I do like your gun. It's just like Jack's. But he looks somewhat better carrying it. Probably because he has a swishy coat. Those just lend themselves to being paired with Big Ass Guns. You should get a swishy coat, too!!! I'm thinking Matrix style.
I'm glad I wasn't spoiled for the regeneration. That would have sucked ass. No spoilers please! I like being naive and ignorant.
You know what would rock? Bringing John Simm in. Because he's a good actor and I like looking at/watching him.
Also, Harriet Jones (Former Prime Minister) is fantastic! I loved that character when they first introduced her. I'm glad she got a heroes send off.
Did I mention how much I LOVE crazy Dalek Caan? 'cause I do! There's something beautiful about a completely bonkers Dalek. I want to dangle shiny objects in front of him and see what happens.
Mr. Copper mention!!!
Possibly the last addition to this post...Space Facebook!!! I love Donna.
Yeah, I lied. EPIC phone call made me think "YOU CAN'T STOP THE SIGNAL MAL!!"
Again. "Doctor's Secret Army" totally = Dumbledore's Army.
Possibilities for next week:
-They will have a HUGE Deus Ex Machina where the Doctor returns to his Tennant form, which is explained away with random technobabble that doesn't actually mean shit.
-Luke will save the day with Mr. Smith.
-Ianto, Gwen and Sarah Jane will die, pissing off fans everywhere. There will still be a REWIND so they end up living (alla the Year That Never Was) and Rose ends up back in her parallel world, the Doctor is still Tennant and Donna dies due to ominous foreshadowing. Harriet lives.
-Jack, Donna and Rose find Martha, Gwen, Ianto and Sarah and save the day. The Doctor regenerates into Robert Carlyle/Paul Bettany/David Bowie/Kermit the Frog and is useless except at the climax, where he is instrumental to their survival. Harriet is still dead but mourned because she's a hero.
-The Master shows up because I want him to, and he is pissed that the Daleks were able to succeed where he failed so he kicks their asses, decides to take over the 27 planets and then the Doctor and Co have to kick his ass, thus making this a cracktastic plot that would please me because I got to see John Simm in a suit.
-The Bees come back and save them all!!! Daleks are deathly allergic to bee stings. Many bees die saving us all. Honey goes up in price again.
-The Time War is no longer timelocked (which make me think of when cellphones are locked, you just press "unlock" and the asterisk key to unlock it! That's not very foolproof now is it?) and Time Lords show up to sort out this bitch, make sure the Doctor doesn't regenerate, letting us keep Tennant, fix up the barriers between universes and take away Jack's immortality for funsies. They also make sure that Sarah Jane Smith is dropped off in the right place this time.
-Donna saves everyone. Sacrifices herself. I cry. So does every character on Doctor Who.
-Martha uses that key to save us from certain doom.
-The Doctor figures it all out in the last five minutes of the 65 minute finale, thus rendering all of his companions redundant and proving that he's superior. Again. And he turns into a sparkley fairy. Again.
-Alla Buffy, this is all someone else's dream/nightmare and is not actually happening.
There are more I could come up with but I really ought to sleep now. Or watch the Confidential. Guess what I'm gonna choose!
It's odd to watch "Secret Diary of a Callgirl" and then see Billie as Rose in "Doctor Who". She looks WAY better in Callgirl.
