I've heard from the Colin Baker Fan Twitter that all of the living Doctors have filmed parts for the 50th. https://twitter.com/ColinBakerFans How likely is this to be true?

I think 13 regenerations is all you got in the old Time Lord society because, seriously, why would you need more? You could live thousands, maybe millions, of years in just ONE regeneration, so unless you were an extremely unlucky son of a bitch, or actively looking for danger, those 13 basically made you immortal.

My guess is likely the Fourth Doctor was around the longest, both due to his onscreen time and the fact that I think his age shot up from 400 something, when it was last mentioned by the Third or Second Doctor I believe, to the 700s or so.

It 'helps' that for a loooooong stretch of time Four traveled around with another Time Lord and a robot, so we have no freaking idea how long that went on for.

...wasn't that supposed to be the end of Season 5? You know, when Moffat reset the universe because he wanted to do whatever he felt like and didn't want to square it away with what had come before even though it'd be extremely easy to? Only then he didn't decide to do that and instead aaaaaaaaaaguh.

It'd be a nice parallel to the First Doctor. Wish I could be excited though.

PriorMarcus posted:Yes, but it was explained as being an old exploit in the Cybermen's operating system that the Doctor could only exploit because it was in a vulnerable state due to trying to control him. Do I even need to say gently caress It at this point? I just, there is SO MUCH you can do with the Cybermen! The last good story with them, outside of audios, should not have been 30 something goddamn years ago!

I wonder if, as a kid, David Tennant wanted the 5th Doctor to be his dad. You know, like a lot of little kids want their role figures to be their parents. I wonder how proud ChildTennant is that adulthim made that happen.

Wait but that would mean there could only be 13 Doctors because if you can only regenerate 12 times... Or is that ?

I love Mccoy's little "I GOT HIS PEN" moment when they get past the first security guard. And, gentlemen and ladies, yet again. Tom Baker is the Best. That's all that needs to be said. Whether it's being trapped in another sodding time vortex (how often does that happen to the man) or being both the 4th and Last Doctor or whatevers-dude is amazing. And very, very Tom Baker.

I really, really hope not. A lot of it might work, except for the fact that the Doctor, the 11th, SHOULD KNOW HE HAS ONE MORE REGENERATION. The 13th shows up to help in the Galifrey fight! He's the one who REMEMBERS that right? That and can we please, please stop, PLEASE, treating Regeneration as magical Anime Power Up Bullshit? The regrowing a hand thing kind of makes sense, but ever since River used it as legitimate super powers it's always bugged the hell out of me.

I just realized why this sounds so ridiculous to me. Like, I can put it into words. SO you guys remember when the Second Doctor, in the first 24 hours of his regeneration, totally found and destroyed all those Daleks with his super cool regeneration SSJ powers? No? Huh. OK, BUT you remember how the THIRD Doctor, instead of falling into a coma for a bit, instead just punched his way through Auton after Auton and hurled those meteors back into space right? That didn't happen? Well but... The FOURTH Doctor, when that GIANT ROBOT HOLDING SARA JANE showed up, he just ran up and punched it in the dick blasting it apart into a million-really? Never happened? Are you sure?

If they legitimately go with "Regeneration Kills The Daleks" I will not be happy. That's what really pisses me off, that idea. I don't think I really need to go into WHY that's just not smart to begin with. Oh wait I did before.

Question. If this is, and has always been, the Doctor's last Regeneration, why would he fake regenerate with the robot body when River shoots him? Why would they go out of their way to say her poison will stop his regeneration when she kissed him? Why would he tell the Cyber Planner to leave or else he'd Regenerate and wipe him out? The last one is the most important one I think because it comes straight from the man himself. You can't say it was a bluff or anything because the Cyber Planner would have called him out on it.

That's right! 11 used some of his regeneration energy to heal River! How could he do that if he doesn't have any?

Dice Dingus posted:I'm as big a defender of the wait-and-see approach to each episode as anyone but let's not say things we can't take back. There is approximately an icecube's chance in hell of Moffat writing a satisfying conclusion to the Silence arc considering his track record of setting up big very important issues and then resolving them with anticlimax. WHAT DO WE DO ABOUT RIVER AND GETTING HER BACK? Oh hey remember that wacky best friend who's totes been around Amy and Rory foreves and is just so wacky and they talk about her all the time and named their daughter after her and gets into SO MUCH TROUBLE and is even more obsessed with the DOctor and has been friends foreves? No? You don't? Because she didn't exist until this episode? Well she's River. SHOCKINGTWISTSECUREDSOCLEVER
