What are some good Seven audios other than Colditz? I want to explore him more, he's a devilish manipulator.

Mostly the campiness but I think they also cut a scene that made the plot a little confusing (about the sheriff turning into a cyborg).

Martytoof posted:OK so I just watched Listen and it's the first episode of Doctor Who that has completely lost me. I just couldn't follow it at all after the halfway mark. I mean I THINK I get it, but then I have no idea what the whole part about the ship at the end of time was all about, and what was opening the airlock. How did Clara end up at the barn? I am just so You know how in a lot of monster movies you have someone say "it's probably the house settling...or maybe it's something else"? This episode makes it genuinely ambiguous as to whether something is out there or not.

The Production Code had only ended like five years prior to that film so I'm guessing they still didn't know how to rate things accurately. The introduction of PG-13 definitely helped quite a bit even though it wouldn't have for that particular film.

I'm listening to Sword of Orion right now and I think a Cyberman remake of Alien would be cool (even if it's "against the original depiction " or whatever).

The_Doctor posted:Wesley/Alexis Denisof's English accent is astoundingly good. I say this as an Englishman that I had no clue he wasn't one of us. A few years later I heard his real American accent and it's the most cringeworthy Californian accent, real "oh wow gee" stuff. The opposite of this is probably Andrew Garfield who just sounds silly with an English accent.

Bown posted:Finally finishing up the Capaldi season and on Dark Water and man Clara went from actually quite likeable to a total awful maniac insanely quickly. If I was the Doctor I would have taken her to an actual volcano and booted her in. That was OTT even for grief-mania. Make sure you watch the Christmas special, it kinda deals with that.

Rochallor posted:This is pretty cool news for stuff going forward but the Weeping Angels in audio form just sounds like the dumbest loving idea. I have no idea how this is going to work unless they're an extremely minor aspect of whatever story it is. I'm imagining it's like the beginning of Chimes of Midnight.

Audio chat: I just finished Red and I think my favorite part is how the AI actually wasn't the killer all along, since that seemed to be where it was heading with all of the "let me augment you sir" and the like. They really did emphasize his fear too. Also whoever was praising McCoy and his rolling Rs weren't kidding.

I think that speech was more for the audience's benefit instead of the Doctor's. Unless you think that the main reason why he wanted to find the invisible leg grabbing creatures is for them to explain what exactly they meant with all that.

Gaz-L posted:I will say one idea that I'm pretty sure is going to disappoint everyone here if true, but was the first thing I though on seeing that trailer: Maisie Williams is probably playing Clara. She's wearing the orange spacesuit that Coleman's shown in earlier in the trailer, and while she doesn't sound especially Northern, that 'old man' crack would be very in character. The Girl Who Waited, but in reverse.

Hiro Protagonist posted:I stopped watching the show at series 7, not out of lost interest so much as other things taking preference. Now I'm kind of wondering... What happened? Not, like, in the series, but it seems like the public interest for the series just disappeared midway through series 8. Was this just in the group I was in, or were people just not that impressed with Peter Capaldi, or did it move in a different direction that didn't go over well? A lot of people tuned in for the pretty boy aspect. Not really enough to matter, mind you, but the most vocal people. Jsor posted:I was referring to the 7th episode, which regardless of personal opinions, is where a lot of my friends stopped watching. Interestingly the Caretaker had the lowest viewership ratings. computer parts fucked around with this message at 00:06 on Aug 23, 2015 |

Jerusalem posted:Personally I think he's just old and a little fed up with observing social niceties, and it's made pretty obvious on multiple occasions that he still cares deeply. His bit to Clara about doing what must be done at the end of Mummy is a pretty good encapsulation of the kind of person he is, and the lengths he is willing to go to.... but that doesn't mean he is callous or cruel. Yeah I see this a bunch with old people, and I know a bunch of old researchers in particular. They're not trying to be cruel but they've had bullshit thrown at them for decades so they just want to get back to what they do. Though if they really wanted to capture that they'd have Capaldi do the same rant about Daleks every 3 episodes, regardless if they were in the episode or not.
