Mister Shine Posted May 24, 2013 Report Share Posted May 24, 2013 I think its a great break in to the doctor because its someone else figuring out who he is. Odd sentence but it works, trust me. Plus best writing in series Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Webmonkey Posted May 24, 2013 Report Share Posted May 24, 2013 Rose is good for a beginners intro to the doctor,.. and the weeping angels ( a bit later on) are damned scary monsters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister Shine Posted May 24, 2013 Report Share Posted May 24, 2013 I hate Rose. But thats just my opinion. Backed with facts lol. But Blink is seriously great and you need to know absolutely nothing about Dr Who to get it. But it will make you go "I want more of this" so then you go back and watch everything Well, everything from the new series. You cant watch everything ever.

Webmonkey Posted May 24, 2013 Report Share Posted May 24, 2013 But then,.. I'm not a big matt smith fan either. I thought david tenant was much better. ---------- Post added at 07:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:58 PM ---------- While I can get behind the concept of river's character,.. I think it may be the actress that makes her seem a bit flat to me. Maybe if they had her regenerate into someone else, it would pull off better for me. ---------- Post added at 07:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:00 PM ---------- But then again,.. Tom Baker is the only "true doctor" for me. Since he's the one I grew up on. *grin* ---------- Post added at 07:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:02 PM ---------- geez,.. does that show my age??? lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bowchikawowers Posted May 24, 2013 Report Share Posted May 24, 2013 just a bit lol. tom baker made a great doctor though. Tennant was superb, and i miss him. However, I have to admit, Matt's growing on me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister Shine Posted May 24, 2013 Report Share Posted May 24, 2013 Tennant was great but I think Smith portrays a much better older doctor. A little bit more madman with a box, little less patient with all the things lol ---------- Post added at 10:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:13 PM ---------- Also disliked Tennant taking time off during production to do Stage work.

Webmonkey Posted May 24, 2013 Report Share Posted May 24, 2013 madman with a box,.. perhaps,.. but he lacks the sheer lunacy of tom baker though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
