Two things can do the same thing but Moffat's probably just incapable of pulling it off.

Be fair Forest is uniquely, thoroughly awful and gave the distinct impression that the guy behind it had never written anything in his life and wasn't planning to start now. My statement was reasonable based on the evidence available.

Thinking about it, the way the conflict was resolved was a lot like The Empty Child/The Doctor Dances, wasn't it.

spectralent posted:I'm really hoping there's some kind of twist because it's a bit too obvious to drag out all season at this point. The_Doctor posted:Quite enjoyed that. I watched the binaural version, and agree the effect wasn't quite used as it could have been. Like, put on headphones and listen to this: gently caress me that first knock is exactly from my window.

The bugs were activated by high pitched noise, not controlled by it. Sonicing it would probably just make it worse.

Big Mean Jerk posted:Nothing against BF, but a full cast 11th Doc audio series is probably the only thing that could get me into the audios. I've listened to a handful of 8 stories but the format just doesn't grab me. (And yes, I've tried the usual recommended stories.) I figured Bill's death was making us think the Doctor stamping around going DIE WELL YOU FUCKS was him going into despair over losing a companion like he did with Clara, a bit of a bait and switch.

Nardole has definitely proven to be a great addition and I look forward to Big Finish inevitably giving him his own series.

It's that aliens are coming to invade and they know exactly how to beat us. I think the point of the NPC suicides was that it mucked up the simulation, cause the real CERN wouldn't just blow itself up out of nowhere. It introduces unrealistic data.

I feel like it's a bit dishonest that they were setting up the prediction thing to be like a military invasion. Like, we've studied your every move, we know everything you could do, we're teleporting onto your planes and taking them over, and then it was... what we got.

Wheat Loaf posted:If you have an episodic tv series, it is usually better for your storylines not to go past one season. Obviously you want to set up the next season, leave a question or two unanswered to go back to later, but you have to be prepared to commit to it. The big question at the end of season five was "Who blew up the TARDIS?" then season six goes somewhere completely different and the answer is given as a kind of aside in a Christmas special. Wait, they explained who blew up the TARDIS?

Hardly anything loving happened. I got to the end and was genuinely surprised it used all 45 minutes, it felt more like 20 at most.

No it isn't. The idea is that the fantastical elements are easily distinguishable from the realistic ones, so as we can more easily spot what's supposed to be there and what isn't. I spent the entire episode expecting the other shoe to drop about that guy but he was just... an ordinary soldier? Who was black? It worked with my expectations, based on what I know about the time period, to set up something that the episode wasn't actually going to do. I seem to remember you using this same logic about the moon egg and it was just as silly then.

Originally, the Earth had no Moon, and had a twin planet exactly opposite the Sun on the same orbit, Mondas, which developed essentially identically to Earth right down to the continents being ours but upside down. In Doctor Who canon, the Moon is As the planet got further and further into space, the surface became uninhabitable, so the few remaining Mondasians went underground. As they couldn't afford to lose people, they kept everyone going by replacing damaged parts, first with organic parts from the dead, then with cybernetic prostheses. After a while, it got to the point that anyone who saw the sky for the first time, after a lifetime underground, went mad immediately. In order to bring the planet back to where it came from, they constructed a giant rocket on the surface to push it back the other way, using the only people who could survive: fully augmented workers with even their emotions removed. The Cybermen.

Bicyclops posted:That isn't what's implied at all, which is why you hear "nobody is saying this," because they aren't saying it. That you have made it your personal crusade to argue against a phantom because of your obtuse inability to engage with complexity is nobody's fault but your own, and it makes you look abysmally stupid. Be fair, Doctor What kind of is.
