This is in the front lobby of the Doctor Who Experience. I looked up not expecting to see it. It was....unsettling. Related note, Mondasian Cybermen are creepy as hell up close. I think it's them smelling like latex hospital gloves, really adds to the visceral body horror feel.

Bicyclops posted:I think the first thing I ever saw him in was The Others, although I didn't realize it until much later. The first thing I saw him in was Gone in Sixty Seconds. It was a bit of a weird moment when I went back and realised that the guy who got a hard on for wood furniture, or whatever the hell his gimmick was, was the Ninth Doctor.

Neddy Seagoon posted:I absolutely love the way the "He will knock Four Times" thing was resolved, because it gets pushed right to the end where you're still focusing on the Master and goddamn Rassilon. And just when you feel happy that it's over and Gallifrey has been stopped... tap-tap-tap-tap... Tennant's reaction to the knocking is my absolute favourite performance by him in Doctor Who. The sheer relief on his face when he realises he's somehow managed to luck his way into surviving again. And the moment he hears the knocking he knows exactly what it is and what he's going to do. That whole speech is so effective because he knows from the first second that he's going to end up in that box. It's such an amazing turnaround in a matter of seconds from 'I'm Alive!', to 'I'm hosed'. The one shot reveal starting with the close up of Tennant only adds to it. Goddamn I love that scene.

PriorMarcus posted:I totally understand she's going to have it worse than ever but every Doctor has this happen to them. Smith the most of the revival. I think I've heard it most for Capaldi to be honest, in the sense of being a fantastic Doctor let down by terrible scripts. I didn't want Capaldi to go. For some reason it feels like he just got here, and this season in particular he really felt like he was hitting his stride. His run, somehow, also doesn't feel as 'important' as 11 and 10, which is a shame. I don't really know what I mean by that. Except maybe that End of Time, Day of the Doctor etc were massive cultural events, and Capaldi hasn't really had one of those. I'll probably define him by Heaven Sent. Having said that, I'm so stoked for Doctor Who again. It'll tell little girls that they can be the hero, but probably just as important it'll tell little boys that little girls can be the hero as well. I've also wrote the first short teaser for series 11: Random Man: 'Right, so, sorry, is it Miss, or Mrs?' Cut to Whittaker: '...Doctor' (Grin, cut to theme) BBC, if you can just send my royalty cheque via post, cheers.

I'm probably being a bit unfair, but Moffat giving his friend title card billing in his final episode really rubs me the wrong way. But I also can't stand Gatiss so I'm biased. Especially compared to the last two Christmas Special regeneration episodes, this seems really underwhelming.

Still genuinely my favourite scene in the whole series. You initially think it's awful. Then you realise the music is diegetic, and it's the Master keeping himself entertained, and just enjoying the gently caress out of having made the Doctor (and the whole world) his own personal bitch. Then it becomes spectacular.

I really like the scene in End of Time part 1 where he gets captured by that guy and his daughter. I mean the episode is terrible, but the Master up to that point doesn't even know that their machine exists. So he literally sees it, comes up with a plan on the spot, goes 'gently caress it, that'll do', and then wipes out the human race, laughing like an utter maniac the whole time.

Jerusalem posted:- Lady Christina is a terrible, terrible character who the show attempts to draw a false equivalency with the Doctor - she has no depth, is morally repugnant and doesn't learn or grow in any across the course of the episode, and is then rewarded for her callous greed with a flying bus so she can go commit more crimes. This is somebody who steals national treasures to keep purely for her self because she's "bored" and thinks she deserves them more than the public deserves to have access to them - she's basically one of those greedy fucks who buy/order stolen art for their private collections, only we're supposed to see that as a fun and good thing akin to the Doctor stealing the TARDIS. While I agree with all of this, I think it gives the mistaken impression that anything actually happens in this episode. Which doesn't. Nothing happens. Despite it being about 6 and a half hours long.

" stuff to the max, in a way the RTD seasons was often guilty of, in a way that Moffat also gets criticized for despite being nowhere near as bad.

Burkion posted:
That was Last of the Timelords End of Time was when he randomly happened to find an alien medical device, said 'gently caress it, that'll do', and turned everyone into copies of himself and took over the world like 5 minutes later. So yeah, your point still stands.

Say what you want about Murray Gold. But a lot of the individual themes during his run (Eleven's Theme, This is Gallifrey) have been goddamn stellar, and music's become an enormously large part of the show's identity and popularity. Hell, they even managed to put together a couple of half decent 'Doctor Who Proms' with it. Post your favourite piece of Doctor Who Music: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DrRQapIdaMU (cleanest version I could find) gently caress yeah. Break that wall you magnificent bastard.
