Doctor Who Series Topic Discussion - May Contain Spoilers

[Billz]

The idea is interesting. I can't say the same for the animation though, which looks p*ss poor.

[limey BSc.]

Oh dear.

[Daystar70]

The animation is..hmm...not good...not terrible..just seems like they could have definetly done a higher end feature.

Captured filming session for End Of Time.

&feature=related

[Daystar70]

Ya that's been around since the last convention, Timothy daltons voice, he is a time lord..saw him in his robes with david tennant and the master in filming. My theory has always been the Time lords would eventually return, though whether or not that is what his presence means has yet to be determined, he could just be a flashback character, or maybe he is the Valyard, the Evil final incarnation of the Doctor from "trial of a time lord"..

[Dalek]

Waters of Mars is on in about...2 minutes. xD

[Billz]

Wow.

The Doctor is on the brink of total insanity. Basically giving the rules of time the 'middle-finger', as it were, was a bold move for the character. He knows what is going to happen to him though so he's basically thinking 'f*ck the rules! I'm gonna regenerate soon so I will do things MY way!'

[Dalek]

His problem with his little timeline tweaking was that he was too selfish. You saw how p*ssed Adelaide was. She had expected herself and her crew to die and the Doctor goes and changes that.

He fought time and lost. I can't remember where it was mentioned but someone said that Jack was a fixed point in time and the only reason he survives being killed was because of him being fixed. Could the same thing have applied to Adelaide? Being saved when she was meant to die and then dying anyway? Either way, the Doctor got a slap in the face from Time. I hope he doesn't try it again. He needs a companion again cos Catherine Tate was right, someone needs to control him.

Best episode thus far!!!!!!! I was so dismayed at him just walking away from history then HELL YEAH!!! Taking on time!!! But remember history always fixes itself and the Doctor said some things are fixed in time, even the Dalek saw that.

Can't wait until Christmas! Bring on John Simm  

[Dalek]

I was so dismayed at him just walking away from history

Can't exactly blame him for that. He tried helping at Pompeii and look what happened there...

[mckinneyc]

Oh yeah. He even made reference to that. I'm so going to miss David Tennant. It's the beginning of the end. I want to see it yet I don't.

Been a wild ride and all the best episodes of Dr Who featured him. Christopher Eccleston seems like a lifetime ago.

[Daystar70]

Just watched it (thank god for bittorrent lol usa here). David Tennant was the best Doctor by far, but i accept change and look forward to matt smith, Besides technically the "other" Doctor is stgill david tennant and can be seen anytime (rumors are rampant that a scene in end of time has doc 2 and rose, and rose going by "Rose smith" meaning she married that doctor.)

[Daystar70]

"The Laws Of Time are MINE, and they Will Obey Me!"

WOW! that is a quote that sends chills down my spine. I predict this will be a most often quoted episode.

Anyone notice the ood seems to be a projection of his imminent regeneration like the watcher was in "Logopolis"?

[Daystar70]

I can't remember where it was mentioned but someone said that Jack was a fixed point in time

Utopia, The Doc told Jack he was "fixed" and that he was an Impossible thing. I sort of gathered this was like a planet orbiting a moon, nature getting reversed by Rose's tampering, Jack is a "wild" card in time and space nature because he registers as "fixed" and yet he moves through time and space.

(rumors are rampant that a scene in end of time has doc 2 and rose, and rose going by "Rose smith" meaning she married that doctor.)

There's no truth to those rumors. On set reports have confirmed that.

[Vanguard]

"We're not just fighting the flood, were fighting time itself. AND I'M GONNA WIN!"

One of the best who episodes so far, On par with Blink, The Empty Child, Stolen Earth and Doomsday.

Eagerly looking forward to Christmas, though I have my reservations about The Master coming back, If they do it well, excellent but I don't want them to turn him into a 'Dalek' character (I.E. Bring him back, kill him, bring him back again.etc)

I'm also guessing by the amount of times they were referenced in the episode, that the time lords will indeed be coming back...

While I'm still here, was it just me, or was Gadget a significantly cooler Wall-E... On steroids...

Reminded me more of Johnny 5. But yeah, Gadget was awesome! Except for the fire trails after the Doctor 'tweaked' him. They were just idiotic.

Except for the fire trails after the Doctor 'tweaked' him. They were just idiotic.

Remember, Doctor Who is meant to be a kids TV show. Considering the storyline, it would've been a bit too terrifying for all the little kiddies.

It would of been too terrifying if Gadget didn't have fire trails? 

[Dalek]

Yes.

Nah, what I mean was the whole episode would've been very grim if it weren't for some humour.
