Doctor Who Rant Ahoy

[verdantgt]

First - Rory rocks!

Second - Srsly Moffatt? Spoilers to River Song spoiler space below



















Okay first, can I just say omg ewwwwww with the hello sweetie lover, my love etc from River/Doctor and the flirting when it turns out she is Amy and Rory's daughter? That's just Woody Allen creepy ass.

Second. River is part Time Lord because of being conceived on the TARDIS. Okay, I'll buy that. sort of. I guess. What I can't buy is that he has a connection to the Time Lords even this version of him that he didn't get that vibe from her EVER?! Really? What? She outgrows it? She couldn't have, otherwise why did she exist out of time when Amy rebooted the Universe? And if she does have the ability to regenerate which we sort of already saw how did she die in the Library for the final time? Is he going to say that was her final regeneration and she's done it multiple times to get to the 51st century?

I'm going to wait and see what happens in part 2 but right now, so not impressed with the revelation.

It did leave a lot of wibbly wobbly timey-whimey stuff left unanswered, didn't it? And generated even more questions.

I'm waiting for the future revelation that River/Doctor's luv child is/will grow up to be Rassilon. :P

That aside, I think I'm growing rather fond of Kick-Ass-Centurian-Rory. That opening gambit before the credits? Brill! :D

Heeeeeeeeee. Either Rassilon or Romana. Actually, I was kind of hoping for River to turn out to be some kind of descendant of Leela.

I really liked Rory's speech at the beginning.

I'm sort of unsurprised because I thought this might happen when they announced that Amy was pregnant. Which, I think is pretty impressive that I've had so much not care about it that I'm unsurprised.

The regeneration thing is actually a good way to show her regressing in age, 'cause that actress isn't getting any younger. And I'm not impressed by the way they've tried to depict her as being younger with too much make-up and her hair being down and her using more coy flirty words like a twenty year old when she's uh... obviously older than that.

I had a feeling she was going to be a descendant of Melody Pond because I got the River Song (not very clever) bit when I saw the name on the incubator. I don't know, I guess I keep hoping for a hell of a lot more clever than what he's producing.
