I wasn't scared but good lord I was in tears by the end.
But am I alone in seriously hating those statue things? They're rather like the devidians from TNG.

I don't trust any figure made from stone or metal any more!

I think they've been played out. They really aren't as scary anymore.
Blink scared the crap out of me but now I just went meh.

But yeah, the ending put me in tears.

I think the episode recaptured the scary nature of the Angels, however I think they need retired now

Vortex · « **Reply #824 on:** October 01, 2012, 05:35:40 PM »

Yes, the Angels regained a bit of their fear factor, but they should be left for a few years.

Did anyone else feel like it was near the end for River, as well? She's free and a Professor now, travelling by herself with the Vortex Manipulator. I hope we get a bit more of her, but it just felt like it was the end for her.

I don't know, I think we'll see River at least once or twice again...like when she receives the Sonic from the Doctor!

I preferred Chris Eccleston over Dave Tennant tbh.

Jenna Luise-Coleman was a very nice addition as the latest companion.
She wasn't just cute, but she played her part very well.

Ok is it just me? Or are they going for a more dark and more sci-fi horror plotline now? The last couple of episodes left me thankful my daughter didn't see any of it!!!

I think that they've just been a bit lighter since Moffat took over. There were still some dark parts, but it was a lot lighter than when RTD was around. I think that series 1 was the darkest in terms of horror (Victorian ghost, gas masks), and series 4 I always felt was dark due to the lighting etc. Most of S4 seemed to take part in dark environments/night. I think the intentionally played it light last year so that Amy and Rory's leaving would be more dramatic.

It feels a little more to form, now.

eclipse74569 · « **Reply #837 on:** May 11, 2013, 11:48:03 PM »

Ok, they really could have picked someone else other than "Craig" to play the big dude in this episode...I realize budgets are tight, but I'm tired of seeing the same people play different roles...

That's my only gripe about the episode

Vortex · « **Reply #838 on:** May 12, 2013, 03:34:20 AM »

That wasn't Craig, though it did look a lot like him. Clara was great in this one, difficult to have seen previous companions take charge and be so bossy like that, not to mention clever.

eclipse74569 · « **Reply #839 on:** May 12, 2013, 10:37:13 AM »

Oh yeah, Clara was excellent in this episode...including slapping the Doctor around a little bit

(Necessary I know, but still funny)

Anyone else catch the "Alons-y?"

And I think I like the new cybermen! More sleek than the RTD Era!

And my wife and I laughed last week at "Thomas Thomas." It was a dumb joke, but fnny to me none the less!!!
