But that is very clearly the monster from Blink, so that's a positive.
I've spent some time here talking about how they seem to be pushing The Doctor into something ... different. The way they put it in Waters of Mars, the penultimate episode of the fifth not-a-season, was "Time Lord Victorious" as opposed to "Time Lord Survivor." It is darker and more powerful... which, of course, always makes me happy.
Basically: the rules exist because bad shit happens when you break them (intentionally or not). But you can control the damage by breaking other rules. If you really can see the whole of creation, and especially if you are the solitary actor on your level of power and awareness, you can use the power of time like a god. Remember Rose at the end of season one? "I am the Bad Wolf. I create myself." The Doctor seems to be heading in that direction.
I really like it. And I have no way of telling from that trailer or anything else I've seen or heard, but I hope he continues to move in that direction.
Late, unrelated update:
Wtf?
Every time I look at the new Doctor I see one of those retarded kids that has facial deformities that make them look like they are wearing a mask. I can't fucking handle this guy, I'm out of the Doctor Who movement, but I will always enjoy the other stuff. And fuck you David Tennant for leaving, same goes for you Eccleston!
ReplyDeleteMe too, re: the retard stuff.

I will give Sarah Palin a quarter when she sucks a black cock.
