The Impossible Astronaut confused me so so much. I mean, what? I think that's what most of fandom are thinking actually. But maybe in capslock - WHAT? Italicalized capslock even. I'm loving it though, I'm loving that DW is making me go 'what?' in italicalized capslock *laughs*
God, River just gets better and better each time, doesn't she? I mean, since s5 and her return I've adored and loved her, but as of s6 I think I'm kind of in love with her and all 'MARRY ME RIVER' because, well. :D
I'm hoping there's a loophole aswell. Trying to think of one though is breaking my brain again, and it's broken enough as it is, so I'm trying not do dwell a lot on the Doctor's death. Or supposed death. Hopefully not real. >.< Or, it can be real, as long as it can be fixed. *flails
( ... )
Haha that was exactly my entire family's reaction. WHAT?! And then we all looked at each other helplessly and promptly re-watched the ep the next day on iview :P
I've loved River since series four, mainly because I never much cared for Donna (sacrilege I know)and she was a break from Donna and also she had some great lines. But from the second she appeared in series five with killer heels and a black dress I was like OMFG I LOVE THIS CHARACTER OMFG MARRY ME? The obsession gets worse with each reappearance.
Time can be rewritten re the Doctor's death? That's what I'm clinging to... that and Moff's penchant for "someday's are special, someday's are so so blessed, somedays nobody dies at all."
Totally agree re River. I like River the cipher for the time being... mainly because it makes her more compelling for me... I mean answers are good eventually, but why rush the story ya know?
No I didn't. Cool- thanks for that!
Yeah. After my rewatch I was like Heck there's alot of loose ends here...
The Moff wrecks River by giving her a cop out ending, I kill him. The Moff wrecks River by giving her a sexist ending, I kill him. The Moff wrecks River by taking away what makes her awesome, I kill him. That is all. THIS. ♥ In other news, River is awesome and I don't understand anything re:the plot and their timelines, lol
(I'm answering this with my thoughts pre-Day of the Moon, which is brilliant by the way :D, so some of these thoughts might have now changed! )
I'm starting to like River more, I hated her in SitL/FotD, but I'm still suspicious of her. If she turns out to be his wife like people think I might just cry. I'm thinking that is too obvious for Moff to write though!
I hope there is a loop hole regarding the Doctor's death. There surely will be! The BBC won't want to restrict one of their best sellers like this.
Has a Team TARDIS ever been so attractive? Ok slight mention of the next episode, there is a scene which has made me fall even more in love with Rory!! (Many actually, but one scene is my favourite!) I'll tell which one next week ;)
is Amy really pregnant or are the aliens making her think that?I think it's something to do with the Silents, as River felt sick too. Also Amy was drinking wine at the start
( ... )
I liked River in series four but I was neutral about her (mainly because I thought she was a one off story). I loved some of her lines and the way she acted and especially the quote about "somedays everybody lives" one of my fave quotes in dr who ever! But she got a lot cooler and sexier and more amazing in series five for sure. I ship River/Doctor hard but more as a relationship with benefits than marriage. I don't think marriage is River/Doctor's style
( ... )
I don't ship River/Doctor at all, I think because I just can't see the Doctor in any sort of relationship. I love their flirting though! Especially the 'He's hot' face scene!
I think I may just cry if River is Amy's daughter, it doesn't seem like Moffat's style though so hopefully it won't come true!
I would join you crying and howling and ranting. As I said above to squint13 I like River being a bit of an independant cipher. Not everything in life is linked neatly and clear cut so everyone can see a common pattern. There isn't always a reason or a connection. Us humans just like to force them.
I am really crazy about River Song as well!! I keep fearing they are gonna just ruin her, but once you watch Day of the Moon, I think you'll see how much more awesome she is. And also that the Doctor gets turned on by what a badass she is. So no, I don't think she'll get a sexist/cop out ending.
But hey, Doctor/River is way past shipping, they are pretty much canon at this point. I can't be the only one who thinks this. Man, she freaking blows Rose out of the water for the title of "best romantically involved companion!" There are some great lines, surprises, and just wonderful coming up this series. I know it! I practically expect it to be the best Doctor Who season ever!
I love River so much its a little scary lol! I guess I am just not getting my hopes too much because so often it happens that the strong women get trashed in the end sigh.
Haha yeah River/Doctor is def. canon! Or at least River/Eleven is.
I am very excited for this series, don't get me wrong lol! I love new who atm! But I am still erring on the side of caution coz I'm annoying like that.
