A Judoon Platoon Upon The Moon
[QUOTE=alien_guy;46107260]I agree with this: [URL="http://nerdcubedactually.tumblr.com/post/98740482824"]http://nerdcubedactually.tumblr.com/post/98740482824[/URL][/QUOTE] I like his videos an all but that just annoys me especially the hating darker moments. I don't want doctor who to be an SJA clone
[QUOTE=Irockz;46109762]Ummmmmmmm No[/QUOTE] One does not simply tell Peter Capaldi how to pilot the TARDIS.
Should be worth noting that NerdCubed seems to completely ignore the existence of the classic series
i hope the spiders in kill the moon don't look realistic because oh god spiders
So want to see the Judoon return, if only to hear another Doctor say "Judoon" with a Scottish accent.
[B]Cultbox Spoiler Free Review[/B] [QUOTE]‘Kill the Moon’ is a breath-taking first outing for writer Peter Harness and a high point for the season so far. In the same way that Neil Gaiman exceeded expectations with his first Who foray, so the energy and imagination of a new voice reminds us that we can experience new feelings, and actual emotions, when watching a 51-year-old show. And it is emotional. Steven Moffat calls this ‘proper drama’ and he’s not wrong. It’s proper drama, proper old school sci-fi, and proper scary. It is also that rare thing in Doctor Who: completely unpredictable. 5/5[/QUOTE] [url=http://www.cultbox.co.uk/reviews/episodes/doctor-who-s08e07-spoiler-free-review-kill-the-moon]Link[/url] The Golden Age has arrived.
God, I really can't wait for Kill The Moon. Only episode to make me feel like this for a while Love being scared by Doctor Who Dark Doctor Who is best Doctor Who Enough of the silly whimsical stories, I want a proper scary sci-fi one. Nobody can tell me that Capaldi isn't great because he is, he's gonna shine after this ep Anyway I've Gushed Enough about this episode.
[QUOTE=ElectronicG19;46112113]God, I really can't wait for Kill The Moon. Only episode to make me feel like this for a while[/QUOTE] Listen? I doubt the episode will be scary to us grown up kids. The CGI spiders looked a bit dodge. I'm just excited for the promised Hinchcliffe tone. And if Moffat doesn't get Hinchcliffe himself back to write a new story soon I will write nasty things on the internet.
[B]Interview with Peter Harness[/B] [QUOTE]I suppose it is a fairly jokey title. But weirdly, I think that the two episodes with the silliest names, [B]Kill the Moon[/B] and [B]Mummy on the Orient Express[/B], may well turn out to some of the darkest ones of the season. I might have worried a little about making it too dark. But I don’t feel I did – it’s more challenging than Doctor Who sometimes is, but I think it’s good for audiences and writers to be outside of their comfort zone sometimes.[/QUOTE] [url=http://www.cultbox.co.uk/interviews/exclusives/doctor-who-interview-peter-harness]Link[/url]
[QUOTE=Dan2593;46112132]And if Moffat doesn't get Hinchcliffe himself back to write a new story soon I will write nasty things on the internet.[/QUOTE] Hinchcliffe wasn't a writer though...
[QUOTE=Karmal Khan;46112174]Hinchcliffe wasn't a writer though...[/QUOTE] He wrote stories. Not scripts. He can write another damn story and somebody turn it into a Script. Like Big Finish just did for the new Tom series.
I hope Kill the Moon lives up to the hype. I think I'm gonna be disappointed if the 'unpredictability' everyone is hyping up is just about the Doctor sacrificing one person though.
So the Doctor was going to try and displace the Skovox Blitzer billions of years into the future. But as we've seen, its location in space doesn't change. So the Blitzer would re-emerge, billions of years in the future and immediately start wrecking shit. People getting slaughtered, the military cannot fight it. Earth is doomed. Meanwhile, thousands of miles above the planet's surface... [img]https://31.media.tumblr.com/635b471a714d62a8217ed3e5c79116a6/tumblr_inline_ncktkwv5931rdchfz.gif[/img]

The Metro reviewer states that Kill the Moon is his favorite episode so far. Also, way back to the original preview: [QUOTE] "Proper drama. With monsters and all the Doctor Who stuff that you could want. It's probably quite a big statement of where we are now with the show. This might be where you can argue that the new approach is, for the first time, seen uncluttered by any of the old approach. It's very strong."[/QUOTE]

Anyways, thats a few billion years, besides, even if he did happen to re-emerge in that time period, he would be destroyed not long after.
Either way, it seemed a bit irresponsible for him to just dump the thing on people in the future. Like the dragons in Skyrim.
Episode 6 took us one step closer :v: [img]http://38.media.tumblr.com/b54b459832facca1f29f08f9c9abb773/tumblr_nb96nzUlLr1r2ddw0o1_r1_250.gif[/img] Hmm [QUOTE]For those keeping track, provisional schedules have "Mummy on the Orient Express" down for 8.35pm, which would make it the latest-scheduled ever episode of the show by five whole minutes.[/QUOTE]
Gallifrey Times reviewer also says it's the best of the series so far - review not published yet.

Looking good![/QUOTE] The only person not to sing massive praises is Outpost Skaro
Oooh... [B]Day of the Moon[/B] Live – 3.38m All timeshift – 3.92m Total – 7.30m Surprised the first >50% timeshift happened way back then!
But was that the week timeshift? Because [I]all[/I] implies it's until DVD release. I remember seeing figures for that before.
For the week.
That's an insane amount of time shifts. Why do Doctor Who fans even put so much stock in overnights these days? They're irrelevant now.
[QUOTE]A Christmas Carol had a live audience of 8.64m (12.11m consolidated). But since A Christmas Carol, only two episodes have managed over 7 million viewers live. They are The Doctor, the Widow and the Wardrobe (7.15m) and The Day of the Doctor (7.90m). The only other episodes to have had over 5 million live over that period are Let's Kill Hitler (5.02m), A Town Called Mercy (5.21m), The Snowmen (5.74m), The Time of the Doctor (6.19m) and Deep Breath (5.15m). Day of the Moon (3.38m) remains the lowest live audience for Doctor Who ever (excepting Battlefield Part One, which had 3.1m, of course). In the 2013 run of eight episodes, only The Bells of Saint John (4.43m) and The Name of the Doctor (4.07m) managed over 4m live viewers, with The Crimson Horror managing just 3.40m.[/QUOTE] From Tom Spilsbury of all people. Back when "New Who" was actually new, and live television was the way to watch live television, those 4m live viewers was around 7m.
