Davros1 posted:His last series was easily the best since Smith's first series I rate season 8 a little higher than season 10, but the first half of season 10 is absolutely incredible and peaks with Oxygen which is phenomenal.

Craptacular! posted:A year ago, the review thread got derailed by a PC fuckup. Did it ever catch up the rest of the way? I finished up my side of things at least, but just posted them in these threads. BENGHAZI 2 posted:Hi yes hello I need something to listen to at work and the gym please recommend me your top tier big finish picks thanks If you want something extraordinarily pleasant to listen to, I recommend 6th Doctor story Year of the Pig. For something that feels very akin to his era, the early 7th Doctor story The Fearmonger or the later RED I'd recommend. For the 8th Doctor, Chimes of Midnight is great, though my favorite is Scherzo (which is loving WEIRD and probably needs a less active listening atmosphere than the gym). If you want a bit of a laugh, try 5th Doctor story The Kingmaker.

I really dig her regular costume, but I have to say the Capaldi wardrobe really, really suits her. Same deal when she wore the hoody for the reveal trailer.

Yeah, Power of Three starts really well and then the back half kind of goes off on its own thing and then just sorta... ends. Edit: I do have to say I love the idea of a slow invasion. I wish that had paid off a little better. Jerusalem fucked around with this message at 10:33 on Oct 4, 2018 |

Quickly! Reenact the exact actions of your timeloop BEFORE it kicks in, and that'll break the loop and then you can go fistfight a cactus!

I'm still sad we only got Pearl Mackie for one season, but on the other hand she'll probably go down as one of my favorite companions and never really get the chance to be spoiled by sticking around too long.

Well I really, really, really enjoyed that. I'm sure I'll be more critical with time (the trophy teeth was a missed opportunity for the DNA bomb to be turned back on Tim Shaw, for example) but overall it looked great, sounded great, the new companions were really good and the Doctor is - of course - absolutely incredible.

I love how she brags about having made the Sonic out of Sheffield Steel, but doesn't mention the steel itself came from some spoons she melted down in a bin

twistedmentat posted:So, this is honestly the first time I've seen anything set in Sheffield. Like I honestly cannot remember it ever being in a movie or a show or whatnot. I've seen Norwich more than that. Isn't Depeche Mode from there? Watch The Full Monty. Beyond the gimmick that made it so popular, it's a genuinely great film.

Pilot would be up there as a great introduction episode to Capaldi's Doctor if it wasn't, you know, 3 seasons into his run! My favorite is still Eleventh Hour but this episode is right up there with it, and I really dig how both seem to be setting the tone for the showrunners' (presumed) style. Moffat's was a fairytale and Chibnall's at the moment feels like it is meant to be a bit more grounded... as grounded as a show like Doctor Who can be, anyway.

navyjack posted:So my mom is staying with me for the next few months, and her interest was piqued by some of The Who episodes I’ve been watching in prep for today, and I want to show her some of the greatest hits from NuWho. She is going to be more interested in the emotionally impactful episodes more than the timey-wimey and sci-fi stuff. I'd personally recommend: Father's Day - Rose's attempts to find closure/acceptance of her father's death. School Reunion - An old companion being unexpectedly reunited with the Doctor and how they both deal with the gulf of time hanging between them and their last encounter. The Girl in the Fireplace - The Doctor's impact over the course of a brilliant woman's entire life, and how she in turn impacts him. Human Nature/Family of Blood - The Doctor finding out what it is like to be human and have to sacrifice everything. The Fires of Pompeii - Donna coming to terms with the fact that the victims of long-ago disasters she only ever read about in history books were real people who lived real lives, and the pain of not being able to do anything with her future knowledge. Vincent and the Doctor - One man's agonising journey through life, and the reminder that you can't just "fix" somebody with one (beautiful) gesture. The Doctor's Wife - The Doctor finally getting to speak with the one true constant in his life. The Girl Who Waited - What happens when your daughter grows up and no longer sees you as some inspirational, unfaltering paragon? Last Christmas - Though it loses its impact without the back story of the Doctor and Clara's relationship Heaven Sent - How one lonely old man deals with grief The Husbands of River Song - Confronting the knowledge that you love somebody more than they can or will ever love you back. They're not necessarily the BEST episodes (though some are) but I feel like each has a lot of emotional impact either running through the whole episode or in particular key scenes. The Husbands of River Song in particular I didn't think was all that great but River's giant speech about the Doctor not loving her (followed by "Hello, Sweetie") and their final conversation together really hit hard.
