The Doctor Who Thread

[Hawkmonger]

Just to let you guy's know, i'm heading into Manchester on Tuesday so will pick up issues 1 and 2 (3?) of the DW/ST:TNG crossover and will have a review of them up by the end of next week. I suffer so you dont have to!

I hate the Who/ Trek idea almost as much as the Trek/ X-Men idea from a few years ago.

I must admit, as excited as I was at first, the more I think about it the worse I feel it's going to turn out. Oh well, never judge until tried.

According to a rumour going around the BBC, we could be getting a special treat for the 50th anniversary - a docu-drama about the origins and creation of the show

50th Anniversary Doctor Who Docu-drama in the Works?

Update on the comic review guy's. When I dropped in yesterday they had soled out of issue 1, so it went against my moral of never starting a series without issue 1...............also............I saw some art in issue 3.
The bulk of the series is drawn by JK Woodward who's painted style is fairly similer to John Burns. So I like it. But the third issue features a flash back to when the fourth Doctor teamed up with the crew of the original enterprise (Kirk, Spock and he rest). Although this would obviesly be far more campy, it was going to be the highlight for me. Then I saw the art was by The Sharp Brother's............and it's bloody awful!
So sorry lad's, review will have to wait till a collected edition materialises, like it will.

No - after a sonic screwdriver session, my situations are ALWAYS sticky!

Seriously, I think that the introduction of the 'sonic screwdriver' in nu-ho was a bad decision. a Deus ex machina to get the character out of any sticky situation

Hey - 10:20am, and it's the vodka taking. Does anyone want to save me from alcoholic-induced ramblings?

Please!!!!!!!!!!!!!

well, i don't know if this will help but I always smile when listening to the comms on the dvds post return, as the same quibble comes up again & again that the sonic screwdriver is indeed a "get out of jail free card", robbing the stories of any depth. As i've been showing a mate The Key To Time arc, there's quite a marked difference to the story structure, yes Baker uses the SS, but the thing hardly features, as he relies on his wits and intelligence to outwit his foes....I could make some point about the overreliance on technology today helping create a generation incapable of making their own fire, shelter etc but then I'l pontificate at the drop of a hat
