Something that they explain better as time goes on is that Rose (and then other people) get to see things no human gets to see and they all love it. They are so impressed and happy to see something they haven't seen before. That is probably why after a grueling war he "falls in love" with Rose. She wants to get our of her crappy life and wants to go exploring the universe. The Doctor gets to see the wonder of the universe again because he surrounds himself with people who see the wonderment.

The great thing is when they find people who recorded everything or copies that are in some African Warlord's basement/some Australian's dude basement.

There is another way to look at it, the Doctor offering to be a friend and forgiving him and generally being a better person is the worst possible thing for the Master and in that way the Doctor is torturing him. The Doctor wins AGAIN and you can't do anything about it.

I feel like the episode might of been better as a two parter to let the plots breathe a bit. I remember liking the episode the first go around.

I thought Piper gets worse as time goes on into the 2nd season. She is a brat, she has always been a brat, and doesn't seem to realize that life doesn't revolve around her. Rose is different because she is 18 (right?) and she wants to experience this new world and excitement and at the end of the day wants people to be happy. Piper really only cares about Piper.

I'll come out and say it... I think Forrest of the Dead/Silence in the Library is not very good. I find it a bit boring and disjointed and the whole who turned out the lights thing is irritating.

mind the walrus posted:True, but rarely so nakedly on-screen and in such exploitative detail. Usually it's just some lame poo poo like the alternate Enterprise blowing up or like in "Turn Left" vague intimations of corpses and name drops. "The Wish" literally has Buffy getting her neck snapped in slow-motion by The Master with the shot held for like 5 straight seconds. Yesterday's Enterprise is awesome and you will not besmirch it here. Also this is the best What IF scenario on TV because of the beard factor.

The second part is actually pretty good except for one scene.

I know it weird, but this episode always bothered me because of the way potrayed Nixon. Nixon was a paranoid man who hated practically everyone and wasn't really kind at all. Moffat treated him as almost misunderstood almost fatherly sweet man and it bothers me so much.

As most things, the best part of this episode is Rory telling the Doctor he is an rear end in a top hat and that no one should be like him.

docbeard posted:I'm glad they went with the miniature giant robot spaceship though, as that was easily the best of the 'how does the Doctor escape his certain death like we all know he's going to' options. I remember a collective groan that ended up being the way out but who knows. I also remember hating the episode and basically the back end of this season.

I remember the debate in the thread about RTD/Moffat era was either the tonal shift for lack of a better word. RTD for all his flaws had heart and (some) depth to his characters if they were never fully developed. Moffat had all these great ideas and wrote dialogue really well but I think suffers for focusing way too much on the awesomeness of the Doctor and his shadier side. It's a fine theme to explore occasionally but he went to that well way to many times. I get it, the Doctor lies but there has to be more than that.

Jerusalem posted:This may be the worst episode Moffat has ever written. It's not just awful, it's not just capital A awful, it's capital A awful with italics. Awful. Let's be real J-Ru the worst episode Moffat wrote is coming up and is The Time of the Doctor and was an awful regeneration episode which makes it double worse.

marktheando posted:Oh. Well I don't know his work but that movie looks bad from the trailer. Lets make a film that literally has stretch armstrong in it and make it all super serious and grim. To be fair to Michael B. Jordan he was also in Fruitville Station and was regarded of the best part of it. And has had some other minor roles like most doctors have had before they become the Doctor. So I could see it.

I feel like with Robots of Sherwood they were trying to two things that got dropped from the final script: 1. Have Robin Hood be a robot and thus proving the Doctor right in one aspect but that seemed to disappear towards the end. 2. Have the Doctor be part of the myth of Robin Hood, which kinda fizzled out.
