The Curse of the Black Spot
That was a fairly okay episode. Nothing spectacular, but an all right story.
Next week certainly looks much more interesting though!
SPOILERS
Rory almost kicked the bucket... again! -

On the other hand, that does raise the question of why she'd even bother trying to kill the Astronaut with the six-shooter, instead of the high-tech blaster gun she uses later to mow down the Silents...
Of course, the more interesting point is, why was the suit immune to bullets, when one clearly smashed through the helmet in the second episode.
In addition, it's almost all human technology, it may have all sorts of life support and things that make it move, but it's still just a space suit, capable of being damaged like anything else... yet it wasn't when River fired at it.
Something else is going on here. -

I do want to say there have been some hints that Timelords are stronger than humans over the years
However, this seems to be killing him pretty quickly. It even seems unfixable by regeneration "all this body can do is die."
So, maybe this Time Girl is having the same problems, she was dying, but said she could fix it... but for her to know that shows she must have done that before. She could be constantly regenerating, but it's only giving her a limited reprieve before her unleashed energy starts killing her again and she needs to regenerate again. -
The thing is, if you're going to say you're the best country in the world, standing up for freedom and democracy, then you have to do that in private as well as public.
How can you expect any other country to take you seriously when you are doing all the thing you're telling them not to do?
There are some horrible, horrible countries and governments out there, a million times worse than the US, but that doesn't change the fact that these thing took place and one of the things that make our countries better is that when evil things are done, they should be exposed and punished, not covered up and allowed to continue.
Also, well done for slipping a "you're just jealous of us" message in there.
I don't hate America or Americans, far from it. But it often feels like you deceive yourselves into thinking America is pristine and shouldn't be criticised by outside sources. -

There is no mistreatment of said soldier. He is currently on his way to Levenworth (or is already there), and is being treated as per regulation.
What he did was a heinous crime against his country.
To even remotely think that this wikilinks ordeal is good for anything is absurd. There are people dead now because of it. Not possibly dead, really dead. People that risked their lives for whatever reason, to bring truth to light.
These kinds of secrets must be kept because there are evil people in this world, and one of the ways to guard against it is with clandestine activity.
The only people served by wikilinks are the enemies of the western world. People that want to bring destruction, death and harm. Assange is not a hero, he is an accomplice of evil men around the world that live only for the atrocities they commit.
Also, I highly doubt anyone was killed because of these, all identifying information was removed. I think the newspaper's probably wouldn't have published them themselves otherwise.
Yeah, that's right, the newspapers published these things as well, or do you support censoring the press too "for the greater good"?
You should be angry at your own government for doing these things, not wikileaks for uncovering them.
Then again, I suppose ignorance is bliss. -

Quote:The Doctor just allowed the Silence to bring about their own demise.Originally Posted by RemusShepherd
Does it bother anyone else that the Doctor just began the genocide of the Silence?
It's not like he wiped out two races during the Time War, or killed another entire race by drowning it's babies.Quote:The Doctor I know didn't kill things
On a smaller scale, since the revival, he's directly or indirectly killed or attempted to kill Casandra, several Slitheen, the Krillitane, the Wire, Satan and a bunch of Angels.
That's just in the new series. -
I am actually shocked and surprised.
That was just, the most surreal episode ever.
Also, the Silence are awesome, they may not have done anything, but it's clear they're up to something. -
Quote:Just as well WikiLeaks didn't do that then.
not if they're going to leave the names of confidential informants un-redacted. -

I started to smirk when I saw Kevin Nash's name, I totally lost it when I saw Thor with a running along firing a sub-machine gun.

Quote:Most Doctor Who episodes are around 42 minutes long (plus credits). This makes it roughly the same length as other hour long shows, they shouldn't be removing bits. Of course, a few episodes have been longer, such as a few series endings.Originally Posted by QuiJon
Does anyone know if the american episodes will be of full lenght or truncated like they have in the past. just wondering if i should dvr it for convience of rewatching it but still find the UK edition to actually watch?

Brilliant! Loved it, this series is starting off with a bang!
-
Indeed, Planet of the Dead isn't necessary, all you need to know is that an old psychic woman says to the Doctor that "He will knock four times."

I don't often feel much when I hear a celebrity dies, even ones I like.
But... I don't know... something about knowing that she is gone hit me harder than I expected.
She'll certainly be missed. -
Naaaaaaail... ... ... NAAAAAAAAIL!
I love his character.
Or my favourite...
"I think I need an adult."
"I am an aduuuUUUUUUULT!!!!" -
I'm so excited! They look awesome!

What would you expect a funeral parlour on a high street to look like?
I'd like to point out, that that look could also be for a bank or any number of professional type buildings. -
Much better, but that mask/costume still looks dodgy sometimes. Still, it actually looks like a film I'd ignore that for now.

Jeremy Clarkson. Because we need a Doctor who'll wrap the TARDIS around a tree while yelling "POOOOWWWWEEEEEEER!!!!"

Okay, stop trolling. Rory's a great character. You don't like him? Fine, stop ruining this thread due to your own misplace hate.

If only it came with less Rory.
Also, anyone else notice the 9th/10th Doctor's TARDIS around 0:37? -

Yeah, the British would be the ones confused when you use that term when indicating there's an exfoliating sponge in the shower if they need it. To the British, Poof is slang for a homosexual man.

I never watched passed the first episode. Everything I've seen since shows it to be pretty bad imo.

Quote:Why? A season can by any number of episodes. Doctor Who has 13 episode seasons, some shows have just 6.Originally Posted by Dark One
Though I must say, I detest Comedy Central's method of calling 13 episodes a "season".
