End of Time Part Two 'review'

Jan 16, 2010 12:17

So. Here we are. The end of The End of Time. Is this mixture of feeling total dread, but still being excited to see a new episode what people who watched Doctor Who in the 60s/70s/80s felt when their Doctors were regenerating?

*sigh* Once again, so many spoilers in this post that Galactus could mistake it for a planet and EAT IT.

( I’m so not ready. Can we just have an extended (read: full-season-long) flashback a lá those-in-the-middle-of-fights-in-shonen-anime before Part Two starts? Please? You could totally use the novels & comics as filler episodes... *sniffle* )

commentary/review/reaction, tv, wtf, squee, f!@#ing timelords, this is made of win, damn you all to hell, ooh la la, i am jack's unrelenting snark, need explanation for this bullshit plz, everyone else gets a 'timecock' tag..., i have too much time on my hands, david tennant, fangirling, general immaturity, f!@#ing time travel, i am a sad panda, oh shit rtd's off his meds again, don't even ask, lol, bitching, doctor who, music, spoilers at 12 o'clock, why? why would you do that?

Ok. Don't even know where to start with you. Bad, wicked, naughty Melissa. And I won't go any farther with that. I think the lasers on the cactus people's ship were more like the Millennium Falcon's turrets. And while I no longer cry at the end, I do tear up quite a bit. It's still sad to see him go. It was full of epic win and awesomeness. I say 'was' because this new Doctor is untested, so we will see. Definitely crazy. Hopefully the master will be back. The only thing that didn't show up at all during this series of specials was the Daleks:( Dunno how RTD got away with that. Daleks have appeared in every season of DW. Oh well. I dunno which anime that is with the girl crying. Looks familiar but can't say where.

Where to start with me? Start with RTD if you're gonna start with anyone, he's the one who came up with all the slash and bondage porn. I hadn't even known I wanted that in this series until he brought it up. (I know, I'm just as surprised as you are.)

You know, I didn't cry the first time I watched it, but from the second time on I did. I dunno. I'll reserve my thoughts on Matt Smith's two-minutes-including-the-trailer as the Doctor for another post. Just marathoned the entire 5th season of Lost in less than a week, so I don't quite have enough brain left to do it just yet. And there was too a Dalek! Sure, it was only in a flashback of Adelaide's, but it was there. Besides, I think I saw that Moffatt's using them in one of his first episodes as head writer, so it wouldn't really be fair to him if they'd shown up here. You know that despite how often they show up, and the fact they're supposed to be almost as much of an archenemy as the Master is, the Daleks have never actually managed to off the Doctor even once (with the ( ... )

I thought that she was another version of Rose maybe. I figured she couldn't be Donna cause there the whole crossing of the timelines thing. That and wouldn't she die if she remembered? I thought the little girl looked familiar. I'm still sad that its the end of an era for DW. Hopefully the new season of TW will be good. Need to find the trailer for new DW though.

I'd thought it could be Rose too when she told Wilf that she'd been lost on the Vinvocci ship (especially considering that she seems to be RTD's Mary Sue a lot of the time), but then she popped up in the Gallifreyan senate, and Rose turning out to be a fobwatched-Time Lady or whatever would be a bit much. As for the trailer and new season of TW, go here. You'll find the trailer if you go back a page or so, but, sadly, you'll find some potentially-horrifying TW news a little over halfway down on the front page right now.
