Merry Christmas!! I'm back and have tons of LJ to catch up on, which will hopefully start happening tomorrow. Thanks for the LJ pressie, [livejournal.com profile] ivydoor!

I managed to watch the new DW episode. Big surprise, eh? And I didn't spoil myself first! \o/



Voyage of the Damned

  • That little TARDIS repair at the beginning? Very cool!!

  • OMGWTFNEWTHEMESONG! New new? Or just for Christmas? It sounds very Christmas-y in that it sounds quite Mannheim Steamroller. I kinda like it and wouldn't mind if it sticks around.

  • Okay, FUN beginning!! Loads of little things like Astrid being all bouncy to be on Earth or the Doctor having fun spraying the snooty rich guys with champagne, but probably the biggest thing is happy!Doctor! Or at least not ready!to!kill!himself!Doctor! \o/ Loved seeing him having fun at the party.

  • "I'm the Doctor. I'm a Time Lord. I'm from the planet Gallifrey in the constellation of Kasterborus. I am 903 years old. I am the man who is going to save your lives and all 6 billion people on the planet below. You got a problem with that?" Okay, I'm a sap. I loved that whole line! Guess the whole glowing and floating stuff in LotTL did help him rediscover his mojo after all! Glowing and floating tends to do that.

  • "A few years ago I was homeless, and there was the Earth." Awwww.

  • :( Didn't expect that one guy to suddenly die. And then the Doctor has to deal with the fact that he promised to get them out alive. And then the other woman dies... Huh.

  • Awww. Astrid wants to go with the Doctor and take care of him and he likes that idea. Okay, so bets on if Astrid dies at the end? Anyone? It's like she ran over to a corner to quick put on a red shirt.

  • However, good Lord. Can we just have the inevitable Doctor and Donna kiss in the first episode to get it out of the way? Is it like some sort of contract thing where Ten snogs/is snogged by everyone? And if so, why the hell didn't Jack get a go?

  • Noooooooooo! We had semi-healthy Doctor back! And then Astrid sacrifices herself to save the world and we're back to square one, aren't we?!

  • The Doctor ascends by angels. *giggles*

  • Alonzo! HEE!!

  • Bwahahahahaha! The Titanic almost crashed into Buckingham Palace. I was laughing during that whole sequence. Good kind of laughing – what cheesy fun!

  • Okay, am I the only one in finding what happened to Astrid really creepy? She's like...echo-y atoms spread through space? This is better than death? Just to be scattered and alone forever?

  • Oh, come on, Doctor! Just because Mr. Copper isn't a looker he can't come? Pthththt! (Okay, yeah yeah. I know the real reason is that the Doctor just tried to start over with Astrid and fate bit him on the ass. *pats the traumatized Doctor*)

  • All in all, MUCH better than The Runaway Bride – thumbs up from me. Very rewatchable. (Although The Christmas Invasion is still the best Christmas ep in my opinion.)

  • *watches S4 previews* BWAH! Right. Did I call the Doctor and Donna kiss or WHAT? You know, I think the Doctor should just start kissing random objects! Yes! I demand that Ten snog a toaster! That's right, a toaster! It'd be awesome. You know it'd be awesome.
