AFT Doctor Who: The Doctors at the 50th anniversary special

[dieastra]

So yesterday was the big day, and of course my Doctors wanted to come to the cinema as well to see their show on the big screen. I had to smuggle them in in my bag, as I hadn't bought a ticket for them. Then again, I probably could have, as old as they are, they could have gotten pensioner's discount. Anyway, here are some pictures of our journey

Good thing you didn't get thrown out of the theater with 10 and 11 yakking away!

LOL True! Maybe that was because only I can hear what they say?

*giggles* I can just hear them!

I loved the show. Loved it. I watched the first airing on BBCA so I was watching with everyone! Then of course I watched it again...and again....

:D

Glad I got the voices right ;) The two of them working together in the movie must have rubbed off on me LOL

It was wonderful. You missed the 3-D effects in TV sadly. When they showed that painting from the site and it was in 3-D as well... also, at the beginning we got Matt Smith welcoming us to the 100th special in 12-D LOL Was that in the TV as well?

Thank you! We had a nice day, even though it was grey and rainy.

You and 10 and 11 (and the adipose) were so lucky to be able to watch this on the big screen for the simulcast! And the raincoats are just too cute!!! (And chocolate Karl Marx too, what a world we live in!) :)

The map with the screenings world wide tells me there was one in IMAX at 175 Tremont St. You did not know about this?

I really love that it was at the same time around the world. I hear Australians had to go to the cinmea at 7 AM... and in Russia it was like 1 AM... and in the US obviously in the afternoon.

The raincoats are just plastic bags which I cut open at one side. They worked surprisingly well!

Well, they don't have many sights in Chemnitz (which formerly was named Karl-Marx-Stadt) so they need to make the best out of the ones they have ;)

The Boston Common cinema on Tremont street only has screenings tonight. They did not have anything the day of the simulcast. I know several people going tonight, and if they'd had a screening in 2D I would have gone to see it tonight. But I cannot handle 3D--it makes me really ill.

So, no there was nothing in the Boston area but I was very happy watching it at home with a friend. I thought it was so great to have it at the same time worldwide, and even better, for once there were no commercial interruptions on BBCAmerica because of the simulcast. That station is HORRIBLE with their constant commercial interruptions!

Aaah! I only checked the town but not the actual air date. Yeah, I heard of some US showings at Monday evening. Why not Sunday evening though, I wonder? Or Saturday evening? Why did they wait till Monday when everyone already had seen the spoilers in the internet? Since that was the reason about the simulcast airing, to avoid spoilers. They should do that more often. Maybe not at the same hour but at least the same day. For TV series, I mean

Astra: "You should have gone before we started, what are you, Five?!?"

No, Five would have remembered to use the bathroom before leaving. ;]p

BEST COMMENT EVER!

You win the internet. Seriously. Can't stop laughing ;)

I just heard that some cinemas in Germany are airing it again on December 9th because of the huge interest. They NEVER shall tell us again there would be no interest! (that's what our local cinema told us when we asked, hence the need to drive to another town. In the end two cinemas in Dresden aired it as well, and despite being late to the party the sold out one viewing and half of the second.)
