Hey did you have any issues with the website you got your coat from. I got mine from there as well, and I’m just being told the tracking I was given may be a faked and I see you got your jacket so I want to trust them so I’m just wondering was there any sketchiness about them?! I have San Diego Comic-Con in 2 weeks and worried I might be getting scammed by CosDaddy lol
For some reason i am reminded of Tharries once saying that Karl Urban should be the 14th doctor... because MARTIN FREEMAN was TOO FAMOUS🤣😂🤣. (Karl was only in Lord of the rings, star trek, Thor Ranarok and the boys. so basically an unkonwn). Doctor who is not" good again". Its 2005 RTD tropes thrown into a kitchen sink and then flung at the wall. There were zero good episodes/ Devils chord in particular was terrible. and the worst finale since journeys end. The show wont get better if you keep being RTD's simp, tharries
Yeah the wooden design, based on the nightmare in silver, it's just too complicated. It makes me think of the suitcase iron man armor, or mark 5. It's too detailed and not unique, especially for the wooden armor you'd think the design would be simpler, but no. Also from the point onwards that they had arm guns. Why not both arms? It's essentially a robot, you could pack the entire thing full of weaponry, why wouldn't you? Same problem with the Daleks. Helmet gun? That's cool. Why not have that too? The Cybus is perfection:)
I honestly think the real trick with Empire of Death, the thing that would’ve sold it for me, is him looking out at the devastation of the universe and not getting emotional AT ALL. He just goes numb. He cries every other story, so to show that when things really hit him, he can’t release, he can’t let it flow through him, it shows that his tears are a matter of growth. When the worst possible thing happens, he just shuts down. I think that would’ve hit like a wallop. It would’ve also been disconcerting for Ruby. Cos that scene is basically her and Mel comforting him. But she’s in this situation too. This should be mortifying for her. It just could’ve felt more real than it did.
I genuinely can’t stand the Warrior look. The heads are OUTSTANDING, and then the entirety of everything below the neck is abysmal. They somehow managed to make the Nightmare in Silver costumes look far better by comparison. What’s up with the weird pointy pattern on the stomach? It looks so plain and incredibly cheap. It’s like they just decided to slap as much pointless detail onto the costume as possible. And don’t even get me started on the shoulder spikes.
You did miss one variant of the Cyberiad Cybermen [Nightmare is silver], A leader version does exist, and made a brief cameo in Death In Heaven, as the nod to Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart shows that The Brigadier had black handles, indicating he was converted into a Leader.
I still disagree on Lindy… she wasn’t likeable enough for me to want to follow along. Had it not been Doctor Who, I probably would’ve shut it off fairly quickly. She was unbearably annoying.
Don't make another series. Not until they return to entertaining stories and stop pushing agendas. It hasn't been done properly since the end of Capaldi and even then it was heading downhill. They have taken all that was good about the show and thrown it under the bus called "THE MESSAGE". There's no substance to the show. The Doctor want's to be a clown judging by his acting, Disney have taken over with the help of RTD whose agenda matches that of Disney. Major franchises have been destroyed in the name diversity. Diversity isn't a bad thing done properly but it shouldn't be at the expense of characterisation and story. Until they realise this it won't return to anything like it's glory days.
I loved this series overall. Ncuti is amazing as The Doctor, and the chemistry between him and Millie has been great. The scripts were mostly very good to excellent, with the possible exception of Space Babies (which I nonetheless enjoyed somewhat). My problems have been mainly with The Doctor crying TOO much, the truly absurd romance with Rogue, and the almost unforgivable letdown with the reveal of Ruby's mother. Oh yeah, and the dreadful owl designs for the aliens in Rogue. But other than those things I was quite pleased with this series. Looking forward to the Christmas special and series 2 next year.
