Cliff Hanger Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 I like most of it but the pants don't really work for me. A friend suggested those may be TARDIS socks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cliff Hanger Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 Finally got to start Time War today, now that my job no longer requires me to have my ears uncovered. The first episode is a great little mindfuck. More when I finish the box, but right now my driving thoughts are (1) I hope before this season ends (in 2019 or 2020, God help us) they can get Timothy Dalton in to show the return of Rassilon and (2) I still want to know how 8 and Liv parted ways.

Ace Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 Fairly middling in the annals of Xmas episodes. One great happy bit and one bit that broke me down. Spoiler Testimony brings Clara to give the Doctor the memory of her back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt D Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 I enjoyed it. Will deeply miss Capaldi. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odessasteps Posted December 25, 2017 Author Share Posted December 25, 2017 Sadly, I knew we would see Spoiler Clara But I was (again) hoping for Spoiler Susan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bustronaut Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 We'll never see her again Mark. I was surprised they recast Polly and Ben for a five second cameo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odessasteps Posted December 26, 2017 Author Share Posted December 26, 2017 It's funny, as the gimmick of the episode would have allowed Spoiler Susan or ian To appear, since they would have been plucked a moment before their deaths. There was a funny bit in the new DWM with Anneke Wills talking about seeing someone play herself in the Gatiss movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bustronaut Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 I'm so glad Gatiss is gone with Moffatt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheVileOne Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 Not going to miss Capaldi. The idea of his doctor emphasizing kindness in his speech was the height of absurdity. He was seldom kind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turk128 Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 Steven Moffat's swan-song was as meta as you can get on so many levels. And I don't think anyone is ever going to out speech Capaldi's Doctor (I mean he could make bank doing the motivation speaker circuit). Capaldi's Doctor also had the most character growth of any of the Doctors. His first season and last season is almost night and day, his last speech was basically conveying his hard earned wisdom to the next doctor. Spoiler You wait a moment, Doctor. Let’s get it right. I’ve got a few things to say to you. Basic stuff first: never be cruel, never be cowardly. And never ever eat pears! Remember - hate is always foolish... and love, is always wise. Always try to be nice and never fail to be kind. Oh, and... and you mustn’t tell anyone your name. No-one would understand it anyway. Except...except... children. Children can hear it. Sometimes - if their hearts are in the right place, and the stars are too. Children can hear your name. But nobody else. Nobody else. Ever. Laugh hard. Run fast. Be kind. That last line, what a motto to live by. I seriously thought nobody would beat Tom Baker as my fav but Peter Capaldi is Tom Baker's ideal. Very much like Baker, even when it's bad, Capaldi stood out and acted the bejesus out of it. But, whereas Baker was like a minigun of overkill (jebus I love his theatrics), Capaldi was a sniper rifle of awe inspiring precision. Man, I'm going to miss him. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Travis Sheldon Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 Saw this tonight in a theater. Sad to see Capaldi go. (I've probably said that about every actor that has played the Doctor.) Looking forward to new stuff with Jodie Whitaker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt D Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 I got sick of watching Mariah Carey on the New Years Countdown and remembered it was Sunday night so there was Doctor Who on PBS. Then I flipped over and saw that it was the Twin Dilemma. Back to Mariah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Control Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 The Masque of Mandragora is a fine serial. I love how old Who would load up its episodes with theater and radio actors and they’d just act the shit out of their little roles. More to the point, I like how the Doctor tended to stumble into already formed stories: he was a wild card in an otherwise self-contained narrative. In nuWho, half the time the story is about him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cliff Hanger Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 Couple quick hits. 1) It looks like the Free Comic Day issue will have a 13th Doctor short story (as well as 7th, 10th and 11th), meaning she'll actually have a comic appearance before her first 'real' episode. 2) War Master is fun but entirely skippable. I still need to write up my full thoughts on the first 8th Time War box. Speaking of... 3) The next 8th Doctor box, "Ravenous" is out this week and will pick up right after Doom Coalition. Last year when they annoucned the Time War would be a full 16-ep season instead of the five-episode standalone they initially announced, I had been under the impression that that was all the McGann we'd get for the foreseeable future. Instead, they're doing two separate "seasons" at the same time, with Time War box 2 out in July. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
