My thoughts on the doctor who tv movie

I wanted to do this before I started up the revived series review and I was even debating putting this in with it but it's not really the revived series even if you could argue it is.Now I won't get into the story but I do like it this is more about the characters really and three in particular.

Grace holloway

Ah grace she's gotta be the hardest nut to crack in doctor who history.She took forever to accept the doctor as an alien and in the movie was a bit too long but at the same time fair enough though she knew he had two hearts so maybe she should have been a bit more accepting of it a bit sooner but I do like her.The end of the movie has issues with her death.namely she comes back because of a pretty odd deus ex machina and while I like the story it gave her character it was kind of cheesy.Also funny story she has the same name as the woman who took care of eleanor lamb in bioshock 2 while lamb was in jail.

The master

When I first saw eric roberts in the movie I recognized him and thought oh must be a cool little sidekick kinda like rory and about 20 minutes in I'm crapping my pants cause I'm really not sure what to think of this.To his credit he does do a good job seeming sinister but being the only american born and raised actor playing a major role in doctor who and with that outfit all I can really think of is.....

Jeremy Irons WHYYYY!!!!

To be fair his acting is nowhere near as bad but still It just seems odd to me so point to eric roberts point against the casting agents.

Slight edit Perhaps I didn't make this clear at first but Eric roberts...I don't mind his acting.I know alot of people think his acting in this is pretty bad and while I can't disagree It doesn't bother me as much as it does other people.Plus I've sat through some bad acting before and this doesn't quite scrap the bottom (See jeremy irons picture above)

The Eight Doctor

Hello paul mcgann.I like this guy even though in the movie there was next to no real relax time to have him just ramble on like the rest.But he seems like the most gentle doctor I've ever seen.between his more human side and the fact I don't think he was quite done cooking ala matt smith so I don't quite know how his brain was state wise but he seemed better once he got his memory back.I really like this guy he's so polite you kinda can't dislike him.but compared to 10 or 11 he's just not quite as epic and grandios.which in a movie could have worked but I won't be too bad.I'd say on par with 9.

Top 10 Villains #7 Sofia lamb

Okay first off before I get to #7 I just want to point out something.Originally 7 was meant to be beatrice from umineko no naku koro ni but upon thinking about it while certainly evil she just didn't seem to fit with my idea.She is a great villain but I started thinking of someone who could actually fit there a bit better and more appropriate for what I think makes a great villain.

And now we get to the second point.Bioshock.I F**king love bioshock(Yeah I self censor myself when it comes to cussing unless I'm pissed long story) Seriously I always hear of how the system shock series blows this out of the water and I wonder how.The characters,the setting of course and I don't care what anyone says the twists in bioshock and bioshock 2:Minerva's den were spectacular,And can someone explain why in god's name bioshock 2 is generally disliked.Anyways that's another rant but I'm here to talk about the main villain of 2 Sofia lamb

Or As I like to call her miss tight britches.Seriously this chick needs to get laid

Hey You know what show was awesome....Digimon



Okay say your arguments for the first two seasons or the newer ones but my god Do I love the 3rd season.Amazing VA,great writing and A much darker tone turned this kids show into something more then just a better version of Pokemon....well the show anyway the games are cook but come on.Plus it's one of the few shows That don't have any main characters that piss me off for being either annoying or just really unlikable.
( IE Alot of final fantasies have these)

F**king twins never so glad to see someone turned to stone

Perhaps I should start from the beginning.Digimon was a series based around kids with these creatures for partners known as digimon who can transform into larger forms or digivolve to become stronger.It sounds fairly simple and mindless but the writing and animation for the show is superb and can really be counted for the first four seasons I never seen season 5 or xross wars so I can't speak for them.the first two seasons were connected by a group of kids known as digidestined ( I know it sound cheesy but expect Alot of digistuff) who were destined to save the digital world (read sort of the interenet maybe I think) from evil digimon who want to conquer it or destroy it.
the first two had alot of depth to them And I applaud them both.Same with the unconnected to the first three seasons fourth which I feel is a bit underratted by fans due to the fact there were no partners but the kids turned into digimon but that's not why I started this.The third season was just amazing and one of the most interesting and surprisingly deepest and darkest shows I've seen.I know I often say higurashi no naku koro ni is my favorite anime but after rewatching it recently I have to say It's just too good.

Why well the writing is superb and the comedic parts as par for the series as a whole is incredible.I recall the main characters takato's partner guilmon clawed a school door and the teacher saw the mark goes back into the class and describes what to do if you see something that isn't there.But also the darkness is beautiful is the series.namely two characters though Rika nonaka and jeri katou. these two have brilliant stories to them..While I won't spoil too much and won't dwell too long on this since I have other things to work on. (I swear to god I'll get working on the doctor who review it's just I'm really strapped at the moment) I will say this jeri turned from this

To this.....

Trust me the build up makes this really freaky and that's not even the tip of the iceberg.Fully reccomend giving digimon tamers or digimon season 3 a shot.trust me It's awesome.

The top 10 villains #8 Oyashiro-sama

First and formost as you may have noticed I've made a mass amount of face value changes to the blog so If you like this design or if something looks off to you just gimme a comment and I'll see what I can do.Now that that's out of the way.....

The main reason it took me this long to get this one up was because I didn't know how to get the read more thing to pop up because this one is mass spoilers since the main villain of higurashi no naku koro ni is kind of a big twist and a huge plot point but now that I know how(Man was it simple...sometimes I worry about myself) Uh....clik to find out about this one.But I warn you.....

Oh snap you just got Riv' rolled



So something I noticed......

Am I the only person that sees this or am I just crazy?

And for the doctor who fans already in the house...

So far most of what I've posted involving doctor who has been to newer fans or to gather fans for the show.But I gotta say This one is for the already heavy fans.The rundown as it were.

• Favorite doctor: Ah I gotta say matt smith.And yeah I like david tennant's run too.My thoughts on the rivalry...Stop it.Seriously people they're both fine doctors.Seriously you'll see I'm mostly split but just the daffy duck like personality of matt smith while still being a really likable character. Plus I love just how stupid he gets again like daffy duck almost.
• Favorite episode: Ah It's close between the time of angels two parter and the doomsday two parter but I have to say doomsday.Just the concept A war between the daleks and the cybermen and my god is it awesome.that alone basically gets it for me but granted the I just made him say comfy chairs line from matt smith....well I couldn't breathe for about a minute from laughter
• Favorite companion: Oh god don't make me pick.rose's story is amazing,martha is just amazingly acted,donna is just so freaking funny and don't get me started on amy.I guess donna but a hair though cause she was just incredible
• Favorite season: Probably season 5.The first of the 11th doctor.Some people say the transition from 10 to 11 made this season a bit rough but really It was a huge restart point and all things considered I do like the season because of it's pace and story was just great too
• Favorite recurring villain: I can't say right now I will say this though the cybermen,the daleks and the master are all amazing and one of them will be at the top of my villains list.

Also As a side note I wanna say my feelings on the new dalek paradigm.I like these guys.Yeah I know they look like the dalek power rangers but I genuinely find them alot more threatening then just the normal models.I guess cause alot of hype is placed on them having certain names.last time daleks were given names was the cult of skaro and my god are they awesome.seriously dalek sec turning into a human crossbreed or dalek caan forseeing the doctor's demise they were awesome and I expect similar out of the paradigm
