Doctor Who - The Eleventh Hour

[raven]

Here are my opinions about the new episode of Doctor Who:

1. I like Matt Smith - I like his dynamism and his silliness, and I can definitely get behind him as the Doctor;

2. I love the colours, the primary reds and greens and blues and yellows of it all, and I don't know if it's a one-episode, fairy-tale-themed thing or more general, but I love it;

3. I am still fond of Moffatt's writing, and mostly of how he never forgets this is a show with a time machine and he always uses that to its fullest potential, getting twisty time travel plots in there wherever possible;

4. Most importantly. Amy is so beautiful and so awesome and she is not scared of anything and she works as a kissogram and oh my god I LOVE HER SO MUCH and ALSO SHE IS BEAUTIFUL.

(Okay, seriously. Being queer affects so little in my day-to-day life that sometimes I forget I even am. And then her oh my god Amy. I mean. Like. Like I am so far gone I want to cut pictures of her out of magazines and stick them to my notebook. Like. Oh.)


That is all. I am too sleepy to sit up straight.

While you are doing that I suppose you could get shimgray to fry you something...

YES. YOU ARE A GENIUS.

:) I must spend the hours around midnight marking essays more often...

There's a few beautiful ones of Amy here (http://mars-mellow.livejournal.com/62581.html). And everywhere else, obviously, but that one in the first row is just delightful. :)

Oooh! Thanks for those! I am dying to see the episode that your icon and mine are from...

My reaction to Amy is much the same as yours. I usually find redheads a little odd-looking, but...why hello there, Amy, you are lovely~! <3333

<33333! I love her.

Karen Gillan is younger than me. I feel old.

She is very pretty.

Me, too. And Matt Smith is younger than Shim. It's awful, isn't it?

[subservient-son.livejournal.com]

Yes, though 27 is ridiculous for the Doctor, whereas 21 means the character is actually older than Rose was in 2005.

I may have noticed quite early that her skirt was *very* short, due to extensive leg-admiring.

What I liked best about the use of the time travel in this episode was that it had time travel, but was still linear as well, so you could follow what was going on without having to think about paradoxes and getting a headache.

I think Matt Smith is going to be a great Doctor.

YES to point 3. Stories about time, yay!

I think that maybe I'd like Eleven to take it down, say, a quarter of a notch? I like him a lot, but my favorite bits were the quiet ones, like when he'd finally settled on fish custard and told Amelia she was brave--more of those, please.

And Amy is gorgeous. Curiously, given how much I love her hair, I almost like her better with her hair up, because then you can see how nice her features are.
