Here it comes, the sound of drums....

I only know it so well because it ripped off that riff from pump it up. Fuck me, made me laugh and good use though :D
Hmm. RTD, thy main skill is OVERBLOWN STUFFAGE OF PLOTZORZ
indeed. *nods*
Rushed, badly synched, and relying on an awesome ending to try and make us forget the rest of the shash. And unless it has some other use than fucking well making RTD come in his pants, lose the aging moment. We don't need it, you could easily have had the Master focussed on the Doctor and dismissing Martha as inconsequential, hence leading to her escape. And that "escape" at the start of the ep? Dude. If you'd thought ahead and not tried to stuff two episodes of plot into one, you could have fucking put it in properly.
Asshat.
The flashback to Gallifrey. Um, is he working off half-assed memory and pure pulling out of rectal cavity? God help me, I even prefer The Dark Path explanation of Koschei's insanity over this bullshit ceremonial "staaaaaaaaaaaaring into the voooooooooorteeeeeeeeexxxxxx" crap. But PRYDONIAN ROBES 4TW.
I was actually pleasantly surprised by Simm's portrayal of the Master. No longer just a dark, intense danger to him, the Master has finally completely and utterly flipped his fucking wig and gone merrily headlong into insanity. Which fits, considering they call the movie canon, and he was destroyed utterly, then ressurrected for a future purpose. And Jack of course has five thousand kinds of win.
Not bad, not brilliant, kinda rushed and disjointed and poop in parts, but wasn't bad.
Torchwood link: The wee little flying testicles seem to be quite upset about the oncoming darkness. It's coming....and if you've seen They keep killing Suzie...then you know exactly who it's coming for.

Date: 2007-06-24 10:14 am (UTC)I rather like NUTJOB!MASTER, i didn't think i would, and i think i may have a bit of a bad boy crush *sigh* I totally wasn't buying the little!master going nuts from an early age though.
If they are coming after him, then Jacks going to get his arse kicked, hehehe poor git.
Now will Ten peg is and we get a new doctor you think?

*hums that song*

Date: 2007-06-24 09:37 pm (UTC)i have the feeling RTD is going ot cut and run
We're going to get a massive fuckoff cliffhanger, and he's pissing off leaving someone else with no structured plans for s4, just so the show can crash and burn and he can go "Well look at that! I guess it was MEEEEEEEEEEE who made it so successful after all!"
no subject
Date: 2007-06-24 09:44 pm (UTC)Hence the idea that the beeb would probably have offered Dt a HUGE and frankly disgusting sum of cash to stay for at least half of S4 so that they can construct their own continuity, because lets face it; DT and R Twatface D leaving at the same time would be really REALLy bad for the DW franchise.
Anyway i think RTD may end up guest writing for the show at some point, i doubt he'd be able to keep his greasy little mits off it, and he could have a good wank over the thought that he was keeping the show alive.

the aging moment
The Master/Doctor shippers are going to have fun with that one "I love you Doctor...but only when you're wrinklier than an elephant's testicle..."
I liked insane!Simm!Master, though at first I thought the insanity was just going to be post-regenerative loopiness. It's a pity about the panto-villain look going, but the everyman!Master is more menacing I suppose. The little blond woman was a weird but interesting idea. Unless of course, she turns out to be a face-emasculated human dalek, or somesuch. I would put it past Rusty.
