  • There are still milk delivery trucks in the world? With little milk bottles? Yes, it's a strange thing to start out an episode review with, but...MILK TRUCKS. This is a foreign concept to me and therefore I need to point at it. Milk truck! *points*

  • You know, Rose has got herself some extremely kick-ass equipment. The alt!world is obviously ahead of the real world considering she can teleport wherever she wants, while Martha was using the only test model that pretty much had no directions.


    "We're gonna need a bigger gun."



  • The gang is ALL here! (Martha's been promoted and is in New York, but everyone else is pretty much as we saw them last.) And they all have encountered the Daleks at one point or another. It's Very Bad.










  • And how many takes do you think it took for DT to do the entire Judoon line? :D


    Translation: The duck quacks at midnight.



  • So the Shadow Proclamation is the space police. HEH. Who office in...isn't that the hospital area from Torchwood in the episode where Owen fought Death?


    I could make a joke about the Doctor playing with balls, but that'd just be silly.



  • Ooh boy. More sledgehammers of foreshadowing about Donna. It's just not going to end happy for her, is it? The woman was sorry for Donna's "loss yet to come." Also, another mention of Donna being different. "You are something new." :-\


    WHY must every companion who travels with the Doctor have their lives wind up in ruins? WHY?



  • Oh, you knew what would happen the second the woman said the Doctor would lead everyone into battle.



    And the Doctor splits faster than when they'd tried to get him to resume the Gallifreyan Presidency...



  • Harriet Jones, in a bit of "what the hell have you been doing all this time, and where'd you get the money," connects "anyone who can help." The Doctor's companions all get linked on video except for Rose since Wilf was without a webcam. So no one knows she's there.


    Well, with "Martha who??" by Rose, at least we know that Rose doesn't know everything that's been going on in the real world.



    Join our Friends and Family NetworkTM today!
    You know, if I ruled the world, these phone chats would have already been happening without any world-ending crises. Just the bi-monthly Doctor bitch session...


    Doctor: Hello! Sorry to cut in! Whatcha all talking about?
    Jack: Nothing
    Sarah Jane: Nothing
    Martha: Nothing


  • Oh, by the way, Davros is in this. Did I mention that yet? No? Davros is the nutjob who invented the Daleks way back when. For more details on Davros, please see "Genesis of the Daleks" and say hello to the giant foam clams, which relate to the story in a way I've completely forgotten about.


    You see this cat Davros is a bad mother-- Shut your mouth! But I'm talkin' about Davros! Then we can dig it.



    UNEXPECTED GIANT FOAM CLAM.



  • Oh man. They would have to go and interrupt a reunion between the Doctor and Rose, wouldn't they? EVIL. But at least we got about 30 seconds of just...AWWWWWW!


    I love the look on Donna's face when she sees Rose first and knows exactly what this means to the Doctor.



    I think that's the fastest I've ever seen him run.




    AWWWWWWWWWWW!!
    ETA: And we have not seen that expression on the Doctor's face for 2 years. *SOBS*



    Even the Doctor's hair is OVERJOYED!



    And then RTD cackled over his keyboard while taking another sip of tea. Evil tea, most likely.

    You know, this reminds me a lot of "Bad Wolf" where Rose and the Doctor are running towards each other, but Rose was the one who got zapped that time.




    *SNUFFLES*


  • O_O The Doctor is regenerating?? For reals?? If he's really really really regenerating, that'd be the biggest fake-out/secret ever pulled off! EVER. He can't really regenerate, right? It's why they left it on a cliffhanger right there. Maybe...since his hand is there, he'll regenerate into the same person. Hooray for the hand! :D


    Doctor: Think ginger, think ginger, think ginger...



    Rose: DO NOT WANT ELEVEN. KTHXBYE.



    Rose and Jack!! Now if only they could get 2 minutes to talk without major catastrophes taking place.



    I've determined that RTD likes shiny things.



    Wow, that suit will probably cut off all blood and air flow to the next body.
    (I refuse to believe he's really regenerating. He just CAN'T. Nope. Nuh uh. *sticks fingers in ears*)


ETA: There were so many good random little things in this episode I loved, but didn't cap. Like...Donna liking the looks of Jack, thank you very much. MWAH. And Wilf's "they always come for the women!" made me crack up. And Sarah Jane recognizing Davros - nice touch. And Rose chasing looters off with her big-ass gun. And Jack getting the code back to operate his wrist thingie. Another MWAH.

I'm sure I've forgotten a lot more.

But basically, so much awwwwwww at the running to each other. Which would be even more awwwww if it hadn't been interrupted.

For me what at least I think in my happy little mind would be that he comes back as he was nice and healed ,we get ten back people ,maybe his old hand comes back to him. Who knows I guess only time will tell .I cant wait until next Saturday. ^0^It's bitter sweet. I Saturday to come but it will be over and we will have to wait for a while until the other new episodes.V=V

[identity profile] mrv3000.livejournal.com 2008-06-29 06:21 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, maybe it's something else?

"Ooh, right. I forgot that Time Lords also have a little trick of completely healing in a way that looks like regeneration but isn't. Sorry about that!"

:D

The next episode can't come soon enough.

Re:11 -

DO NOT WANT DO NOT WANT DO NOT WANT!!!!!

Until I rewatch this episode enough times to not burst into tears at the epic run of epic, I will have nothing more coherent to say except for that.

(Except for the whole entire-universe-is-Jacksexual-ftw thing. 'Cause that really kind of made my day. UNTIL THE END THAT IS.)

It kinda breaks the brain, doesn't it?

(Except for the whole entire-universe-is-Jacksexual-ftw thing. 'Cause that really kind of made my day.

I loved that too! Now if only there'd be some Donna/Jack flirting soon. I kinda think they'd have finally met each other's match when it comes to that. :D

Oh, keeping quiet about the Dalek shot all week, when people thought it was going to be all hugs and bunnies was TORTURE.

But I'm still completely o_o over the "regeneration". My theory is that he'll come back the same, but with a Scottish accent XD

[identity profile] mrv3000.livejournal.com 2008-06-29 02:07 pm (UTC)(link)
BWAH!!!! That'd be extremely hysterical. :D

Question: Why didn't the Tardis translate the Judoon language for Donna like it did when it translated the Latin in Pompeii? Or doesn't it have selective translating ability depending on script/story requirements...

[identity profile] mrv3000.livejournal.com 2008-06-29 02:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I wondered that too. Although...maybe those weren't actually words? Just some sort of sound code? *reaches*

Hehe, this amuses me. There seriously aren't any where you are? I kind of get stuck behind one on the bus some mornings.

And the Doctor splits faster than when they'd tried to get him to resume the Gallifreyan Presidency...

Hee, that was totally my thought as well! XD

He is *so* not regenerating. I refuse to believe it.

Nope. No milk trucks around here.

Totally reminded me of Five's little cartoon puffs of smoke behind him. :D

He is *so* not regenerating. I refuse to believe it.

Without knowing any spoilers, I'm 99% sure he won't be regenerating for the simple reason they'd never do that story-wise. *eyes that 1%*

I love that the gang are all here! I really think it's brilliant. All of them together and meeting each other - but MORE ROSE SCREENTIME PLZ!

And how many takes do you think it took for DT to do the entire Judoon line? :D

LMAO. Cannot wait for the DVD outtakes XD

Translation: The duck quacks at midnight.

LMFAO.

Ooh boy. More sledgehammers of foreshadowing about Donna. It's just not going to end happy for her, is it? The woman was sorry for Donna's "loss yet to come."

I'm going with her family dieing... but then what about the spoilers? Maybe she loses all her memories of the Doctor :S

Also, another mention of Donna being different. "You are something new."

Mysterious woman: You are something new...
Doctor: Yeah, she's the only one of my companions who doesn't fancy me *sniffs*

I also like Rose doesn't know everything. They've left something as a surprise.

Join our Friends and Family NetworkTM today!

LMFAO.

Just the bi-monthly Doctor bitch session...

LOVE IT!

Doctor: Hello! Sorry to cut in! Whatcha all talking about?
Jack: Nothing
Sarah Jane: Nothing
Martha: Nothing


*dies*

Rose: Well, I definitely wasn't!

I love the look on Donna's face when she sees Rose first and knows exactly what this means to the Doctor.

It is the most beautiful thing. Donna totally ships Doctor/Rose.

OK, those pictures of the expressions of them running? I ACTUALLY DIED. I slapped my hands against my face in squee so hard, i now have handprints.

SO WORTH THE 2 YEARS.

And then RTD cackled over his keyboard while taking another sip of tea. Evil tea, most likely.

LMFAO.

Doctor: Think ginger, think ginger, think ginger...

LMFAO.

Oh your Donna/Jack/Rose picture is BEAUTIFUL! I love that. *must have*

I loved this post XD

Word to your entire post.

We need more giant foam clams! And Harry Sullivan to trip over them!

[identity profile] mrv3000.livejournal.com 2008-06-29 04:02 pm (UTC)(link)
There should be more foam clams! Harry was the best at falling into them. Although Sarah Jane was able to keep pace pretty well. :D

Firstly, milk trucks do still exist, at least in my little corner of the world - I get milk delivered by my milkman to home and work every other day!

Secondly, OMGWTFSQUEEWT? was pretty much my reaction to the episode. I *knew* they were going to do something mean and evil re: the reunion scene but up to that moment, there was so much joy and adorable squeeness there.... The looks, the smiles, the running... I shouted and swore lots when the hug did not immediately follow.

Am hoping the close-up of the Doctor's hand means he's not really gonna regenerate into someone new. I *need* to see a Ten/Rose hug. There has to be one. A real, bouncy, joyful hug of squee. Am also wondering if somehow the key Martha has would somehow help reset things including the Doctor's regeneration... or if that one second out of time is important enough so that someone can go back and kick that Dalek's arse before it gets to zap the Doctor so the glomp!fest can really take place.

Am babbling, so will shut up. But OMG. Is it next week yet?

Man, the looks on their faces! Rose lit up and the Doctor looked like he was about to burst. (Which sounds quite violent, but I still want to mush them together.)

I've no idea what Martha's key is for, but in any case I get the feeling that something will go sideways. We'll still wind up with Ten.

Oh, and btw, one other thing:

Was I the only one seriously freaked out by Dalek Khan?

That has to be the first time the Daleks have ever actually scared me. That giggling, squeaky voiced mass of tentacles made me really creeped out. XDDDDD

*Feels dorky for admitting this*

[identity profile] mrv3000.livejournal.com 2008-06-29 10:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Actually, he made me giggle every time he was on screen. It was the crazy laughing. :D

Unexpected foam clams aren't nearly as sexy as unexpected naked Jack. Just FYI.

Your "Think ginger, think ginger, think ginger" made me giggle like I mostly didn't in this episode. (Although, I confess to a little giggling through the squee during the running scene. But then it occurred to me how far it was and how something bad was going to happen and just about that time, it did. AH!)

Thankfully, wonderful people like yourself are posting shiny things to distract me.

He's not, he can't, he just... NO. I have a feeling the hand will save him. And true love.

Rose: DO NOT WANT ELEVEN. KTHXBYE.

I'm so with Rose on this one, I can't even talk about it.

Translation: The duck quacks at midnight.


HAAHA. Well, I was wondering why the TARDIS didn't translate "No bo ho sho corro toh so bocatosatopafopajo, maho" (is it sad I typed that from memory?) into English... but maybe that's because it's not really a language? Maybe it's like the secret password or something? Well in any case, I hope there are bloopers for it on the season 4 DVDs!!!

AWWWWWWWWWWW!!
ETA: And we have not seen that expression on the Doctor's face for 2 years. *SOBS*


I love seeing him so happy! He looked like a puppy running after its favorite frisbee! OH, and the look on Rose's face was so touching. *melts into a pool of shippy goo*

And then RTD cackled over his keyboard while taking another sip of tea. Evil tea, most likely.

OMG, did you see him on Confidential? He was literally laughing evilly at the end. AHHH, the pain!

Wow, that suit will probably cut off all blood and air flow to the next body.

HAHAHA! I was reading a fic earlier today which mentioned how tight his suit is, and I thought that same thing! I bet when he finally does regenerate into Eleven someday, he will be conveniently wearing something else... something loose.

They are quite possibly the most adorable pairing of all time. Not even a pair of bunnies are as cute.
