    @Juniperfish

    I agree. X-men has not always been at it’s strongest, but both first class and days of future past have hit the spot right where I needed them to. They’re funny, exciting and more or less thought through. Of course there are a few things off. I yet don’t quite understand where future Charles comes from, since Jean killed him a while…[Read more]

    So.. there were loads of good things.

    – clara pretending to be the Doctor

    – UNIT showing up, especially Bowtie  she was great, I already loved her as the scarf

    – Danny getting the army

    – the way Clara hugged Cyberdanny even after she killed his emotions

    – Missy was brilliantly bananas, I do hope we’ll see some more of her, after all it…[Read more]

    @otherstuff I’m with @IAmNotAFishIAmAFreeMan on this one. Don’t trust Seb. For all we know he was never really alive. Maybe he is just a droid/Interface Missy created to take care of the paperwork.

     

    I think the Nethersphere inside that Gallifrey technoligy is a virtual place and that only the peoples consciousness is uploaded. That’s why it can…[Read more]

  • FlirtingDinosaur replied to the topic Dark Water

    @Otherstuff I don’t think Clara and the Doctor are in the Nethersphere. The look at it from the outside (as the big ball hovering in the room). They are in the Cathedral (?) with the Cyberman, which could still be normal earth.

     

  • FlirtingDinosaur replied to the topic Dark Water

    @Bluesqueakpip uuhh like a personaliced setting. maybe Missy hacked Clara when she was uploaded way back with the spoonheads and is sort of remot controlling her behaviour. But the real Clara is fighting back, that’s why she has so many emotions all at the same time. some of them hers, some of them what Missy programmed ;D

    (or it might just be…[Read more]

  • @WaterintheForest very nicely put. I loved the time with Donna for the same reasons and also because, since there was no love interest for her in the Doctor, she was brutally honest with him. which helped him find back onto his path.

    But I’m not sure I would describe the Doctor at any point as ‘his carefree self’. It’s more of a show he puts on…[Read more]

  • FlirtingDinosaur replied to the topic Dark Water

    @macphisto96 @Arbutus what if it is not Claras hand but one of a Clarnical. Maybe one that was on Gallifrey, saw the Doctor, didn’t know why, but knew who, so she followed out of the painting?

  • FlirtingDinosaur replied to the topic Dark Water

    So here I am, barely awake, just to find that people want Sara to go?! This is outrageous! I mean, come on, what did Sara ever do wrong!?!

    also @spacecadet obviously you haven’t been paying attention way before this season, Clara has been at it for a while now ;D

  • FlirtingDinosaur replied to the topic Dark Water

    I’ve so far seen the episode only once an will defenitly have a rewatch before saturday (get here already!!). also i haven’t had the time to read through all of your posts, working on it, but I got impatient ;D

     

    I really enyoed it. it had me on the edge of my sofa, simply because I can’t wait to fu**ing know everything ALREADY! which I probably…[Read more]

  • FlirtingDinosaur replied to the topic Flatline

    @DrBen I think the Doctor made the TARDIS go into siege mode. didn’t he say something along the line of “I was able to turn on the siege mode just before the train hit. but there’s not enough power to turn it of.” ?

    but I agree that the failing of the life support was due to the power loss, otherwise it’d be a pretty pointless mode

  • FlirtingDinosaur replied to the topic On The Sofa (5)

    I’m not sure if this is where this post belongs, but I just wanted to say I really enjoy this forum. I stumbled upon it at the beginning of this season (series?) and it is great fun. finally a place where I can obsess over the Doctor in peace and quiet without having people trying to tie me down and shove me into a straitjacket. although one day…[Read more]

  • FlirtingDinosaur replied to the topic Flatline

    @BadWulf I thought so too. Rigsy was well done; written and executed. I loved the way he said goodbye, so in awe of Clara and hardly even noticing the Doctor. For most, it’s the Doctor with his companions, for him it was Clara, and that bloke in the box.

  • FlirtingDinosaur replied to the topic Flatline

    I’ve slided through all the post and haven’t seen this mentioned anywhere, if I’ve missed it – my bad. But, lots of you have been discussing reflections/mirroring of Clara throughout this series. She always seemed in lots of doubt when looking at herself either in her tree-bedroom-mirror or the window etc. This time at least one reflection pretty…[Read more]

  • FlirtingDinosaur replied to the topic Flatline

    I loved Clara in this one. Specially at the moment she stopped asking herself what the Doctor would do and instead asked what she would do.

     

    Missy is really just there to tease us. I’m guessing we’ll have to wait for the big revelation in the last one.

     

    The tini tiny TARDIS was pure awesome, even if the physics (as on the turning the whole…[Read more]

  • FlirtingDinosaur replied to the topic The Caretaker

    @JimmyP some GOOD questions! If one of Claras students would die (or be lost/trapped what ever) it might just possibly break Clara. Eighter leave her broken and empty or turn her into a fury. maybe out to safe the world FROM the Doctor?

    Also what would happen to the Doctor, if a child would die on his watch? People die around him all the time,…[Read more]

  • FlirtingDinosaur replied to the topic The Caretaker

    @purofilion @janetteB I agree re Capaldi being the Doctor. And at some points he very much reminds me of Hartnell, i.e. his unforgiving honesty (harshly delivered). He seems more aware of being an alien than certainly 10 was, and he doesn’t mind. He’s miles faster & smarter than everyone else, and he doesn’t try to hide it with false modes…[Read more]
