More Dr. Who impressions

[wiseheart]

... in case anybody is interested. I've just watched "The End of Time" - I'd put it out for months because of what I heard about it suggested that it would be really, really bad.

Well, it was not. It was worse than bad. A lot worse. It was such a heap of horsedung it made CoE almost look like intelligent writing (aside from the in-canon canon rape and the deconstruction and killing of beloved characters). The entire thing was so horribly idiotic and DT's acting so abysmally bad it gave me indigestions.

The only positive things were the Doctor/Master snippets from the old show - I never saw any of them, so it was a rare bonus - and the cactus people, who were cute.

Extra hate points: the incredible stupid cameo of Martha and Mickey, plus the fact that they're apparently married now, and the Doctor pimping chimp-faced Alonzo to an oh-so-grieving Jack Harkness. Bleh.

About the so-called plotline I won't waste any words. I thought things can't get any crappier than CoE. Apparently, I've underestimated the destructive powers of the Rustoid.

Heh. My little sis showed me a youtube clip of something like 3 minutes that she said was all that really mattered.

I think your little sis was being generous. Two full hours or more of Tennant either running around like a madman or looking out of his head, all emo and with no facial expression at all was boring to the death.

And the writing was even more crap than usually, when the Rustoid gets to tell a story. I liked the Ood, though. They're interesting.
