  1. A classic western. Has one of the best endings in any movie ever, and great soundtrack. Has anyone eles seen it?
  2. Part of the problem is that Tennent cant say a catchphrase, while making it sound part of the natural conversation. Eccleston and Smith can make "fantastic" or "geronimo" work. But Tennent is like the "i'd buy that for a dollar" guy from Robocop.
  3. Does anyone know if the Star Wars radio dramas are worth seeking out?
  4. I found this on youtube while looking at old doctor who interviews. Its a clip of Mark Strickson (Turlough) old band from 1981
  5. You guys are going to do Phantom Menace. Are you not going to do the Ewok films?
  6. l love Moffat's comment about the doctor and Rose. Saying what a lot of people think
  7. They really do need to give the doctor who joke a rest.
  8. The new series has never been big on real science. Just read any interview with Bidmead
  9. I think in this video Moffat is indirectly admiting the new daleks where a mistake
  10. Saw this and could not help thinking of The Cartmel Masterplan
  11. 2 Actors fighting over who can be more over the top http://youtu.be/XFIZqSTWgwg
  12. I also lead to chris chibnall to go on TV and bitch about lazy, poor writing in the show on JNTs watch. The same guy would later work with RTD and give use Hungry earth, 42 and the Torchwood episode Cyberwoman.
  13. I just love watching the same RTD fans who used to sneer at Classic series fans back in 2005. Now complaining about Moffat and Matt Smith
  14. I don't necessarily agree with all of that, although some of it's true. I don't like Corden as an actor who wants to be a comedian (great actor, awful comedian). Kay is a great writer, a so-so comedian and an awful actor, and his success amplifies all of that. To those outside of the UK, Kay rose to prominence from a cult Sunday lunchtime TV show to having his own sketch show (which was received pretty well, although I don't remember it) and then his own sitcom, Phoenix Nights. It's not got international appeal as it's very Northern, but I really enjoyed it when it was on air. The problem is, after that, he went on a self-promotion binge, releasing 3 separate DVDs doing the same routine of nostalgic observational comedy and making money off of Comic Relief through single releases and proming a percentage of his merchandise sales to the charity - the message being: "Buy my merchandise". As for Love & Monsters, I think Fear Her is worse because it has less ambition, a crayon monster and a vomit inducing finale regarding the Olympic torch. And I think too much is made off of a throwaway joke in the last minute of the episode (the love life one) - the episode's synopsis kind of proves my point. That being said, aside from the actors trying to make a decent hash of it, the episode is pretty bad. The Scooby Doo opener really sets the tone of the episode. Love the two-parter though. Also love the shout-outs from old man Toland! Its not just the throw away love life joke at the end. There is also the moment where Jackie talks about how its good to "splash out" over something. Which is even worse.
  15. As long as Moffat does not pull an RTD, and bring them back every year. Each time telling us they can never come back.
  16. I hope that will be it. I dont think i can take anymore of her sumgness. Or any more of the "he is such a great, great, great man. He will fall so, so, so, so far" overacting.
  17. The latest thing people are saying is the fact that Oswin was baking a souffle was sexist. They are saying that baking is a stereotypical thing for a woman to do.
  18. Does anyone eles think its odd that the Doctor is discusted that the guy killed a dinosaur. but he is best friends with a big game hunter. Who is one of the good guys
  19. Everyone always talks about Moffat being sexist. But act like RTD is never objectionable. Martha was a strong woman, who meets the Doctor, and turns into a lovestruck teenage girl who pines after him. Rose needs a man (the clone doctor) to get by in life. But none of the Moffat haters will see anything wrong with the Great RTD.
  20. Some of the criticism about Moffat being sexist is a bit unfair. People say the fact that Amy makes a choice to be a model. But Rose takes over torchwood (in Petes world) and Martha joins UNIT. That makes Amy a weaker character. I dont think thats Moffat being sexist, its fans being snobs.
  21. It was great, apart from "explody-wody". They need to give that stuff a rest.
  22. I can remember they made a Carrie 2 back in the 90s.
