I remember when I first got into Doctor Who First episode I watched was Day of the Doctor and I kept getting Eleven and Ten confused for one another Then I jumped back to Series One, watched Rose, then was stumped as to why the Doctor was hell-bent for leather and going bald After that, I watched the series in order and fell in love with each Doctor every time he changed Once I was caught up with NuWho, I used the hiatus last year to watch some more Classic Who One and Two were absolutely delightful; I honestly haven't seen much of Pertwee (which means little exposure to the Classic Master, I know) and I have seen a huge chunk of Four, enough to see why people love him and eventually got tired and wanted something new Haven't seen much of Five, but I did see Trial of a Time Lord for Six and Survival for Seven I've seen most of the Dalek stories (including the reconstruction of Power of the Daleks, which was splendid), except for Evil of the Daleks, which I hope to remedy in the following months As for Big Finish Audio, I've only listened to a few of them and wasn't too interested Powered through the Titan Comics for Ten, Eleven and Twelve and a few other series, loved them to bits And yes, I saw the TV Movie and enjoyed it All-in-all, Doctor Who is a series I'd heartily recommend to any science-fiction fans and I'm now kinda sad I didn't go into the Doctor Who exhibit at a museum as a child, because it'd have probably blown my mind Oh well~ Vinylshadow fucked around with this message at 12:09 on Jul 5, 2017 |

Lampsacus posted:^ you wouldn't have quite appreciated the same way you do now. But then again, what's a life lived forward? Plus, when you're older, you have more time to sit and think about Doctor Who, whereas a child would likely forget about it and zoom off to the next shiny thing

Wheat Loaf posted:He was in naval intelligence with Ian Fleming, Christopher Lee et al. during the war, wasn't he? I think there was an article about it when a bunch of files were declassified a couple of years ago; he reported directly to Churchill and Attlee, which is pretty cool. But one has to wonder how a film with their later performances would've been The Doctor vs Grand Moff Tarkin and Ansem the Wise, or thereabouts

First time I saw Tennant was in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire Didn't know who he was and didn't pay much attention to those scenes Also had a dream where the Eleventh Doctor, Missy and Rory were living together and for some reason, the Doctor had "a jar filled with the dried blood of an entire village" in his cupboard and Rory's arm had dropped off at some point and conquered the Horsehead Nebula; compared to them, Missy was the sanest one there Was quite bizarre and I do believe I've picked up Hiatus Fever

As long as the actors work well together, their sex means nothing to me 'Course, the writing plays a factor in that and I hope it's on par with Series 10's scripts A tall order, but I can dream, dammit

"If it's leaked, we'll replace every episode of Series 11 with Love and Monsters, The Twin Dilemma, Cyberwoman, and the Star Wars Holiday Special." "Wait, what was that last one?" "YOU HEARD ME." Or "We'll make Peter Harness the showrunner."

The_Doctor posted:I really love those scenes. My favourite is the explanation of the TARDIS chameleon circuit and how it functions because he absolutely sells it. Always feels weird seeing the Doctor "fresh" in his Regeneration before he's dragged through the mud

Hm...thinking about it, Capaldi was a good choice to be the "First Doctor" of his second Regeneration cycle He's great at emoting with his face, much like Hartnell was

And Rory socking Hitler then shoving him in a cupboard papers over a lot of ills, especially now. River has her moments, but the bad usually overshadow the good The closer she is to dying, the better off she feels as a character, meaning The Husbands of River Song and the library two-parter are arguably her best outings Vinylshadow fucked around with this message at 05:31 on Jul 25, 2017 |

Although it click did with my sister, who happened to see it incidentally, which I found interesting as she's not interested in Doctor Who at all. Ya know, like when it died crossing universes in Series 2 or the time Davros tried to destroy it in Series 3

Gaz-L posted:That moment where the Doctor catches her hand as she goes to slap him! River: Then why didn’t you speak to me? The Doctor: Because I thought it would hurt too much. River: I believe I could have coped. The Doctor: No. I thought it would hurt me. And I was right. {he kisses her} Since nobody else in this room can see you, God knows how that looked. There is a time to live and a time to sleep. You are an echo, River. Like Clara, like all of this. In the end, my fault, I know. But you should have faded by now. River: It’s hard to leave when you haven’t said goodbye. The Doctor: Then tell me, because I don’t know. How do I say it? River: There’s only one way I would accept. If you ever loved me, say it like you’re going to come back. The Doctor: Well then. See you around, Professor River Song. River: ‘Til the next time, Doctor. The Doctor: Don’t wait up.
