Doctor Who: EarthWorld

Hey Guys,
it gets complicated in EarthWorld, if you haven’t read the adventures before. So this book is issue 43 from the ‘Eight Doctor Adventures’ and was reprint for the 50th anniversary Collection. What for my thinking was a bad decision. The book is really good but to that later. But it plays with the memories of Fitz Fortune (also know as Fitzgerald Michael Kreiner) and a memory loss of the Doctor. We you don’t know what happend it is a little irritating. This time i will start with a little get too know the companions:

Fitz Fortune and Anji Kapoor

Fitz Story is really complicated when you just read a summery of it. When he first met the Doctor, the doctor travels with Samantha Jones. His travels with the Doctor are like a hop on and off bus. What i definitly know is that Fitz had take is memories and placed them in a Remembrance Tank what rebuilt him. In EarthWorld they say that is not just a copy, that he has the essance of Fitz in him. This re-remembering Fitz lifes a long time away from the Doctor. When the Doctor found him in the end he let the TARDIS re-remember the Fitz he was when they met. So they began to travel again. Than their cames the part i don’t understand, because they are taking about Gallifrey being destroyed by the Doctor – that is why the Doctor forget everything. Again Fitz and the Doctor lost each other but remet in 2001 without memories of who he is.
Anjis Story is quite simple, this book is just he second adventure with the Doctor. She is twenty-eight and had a boyfriend, actor and science fiction fan Dave Young. But he died during a Kulan invasion of Earth. She met Fitz when her boyfriend get into it and he said that the Doctor can help her. But the Doctor isn’t quite himself without memories. When her boyfriend died, she just wants back to work and grieve. But the Doctor can quite find the right time. It is a little like Tegan.

EarthWorld

So the Story plays in the year 2800 on a planet New Jupiter, with people from earth. Most people or the king is an earth fan. They try everything to be like the earth and so on. But their are also the people against it. This terror group is called ANJI.
I like the idea of the book. The new jupiter built a theme park ‘Earthworld’ and the didn’t get the history quite right. So we have a few nice thinks on that. Like the king of Rock, becomes the king of the earth. It is funny to read what they think about the earth.

Everyone against everyone

We have a lot of different interesst groups. There is the king, that just want to be the best king he could be – and so like the earth as they could be. Than there are his 3 daugthers that have totally different plans and are a little crazy. Than there is ANJI that wants to sapotage the theme park, and two other person with different interesst, that i don’t want reveal here. Because the plot is not really surprising but it would take a lot of fun out of the story if you know everything. And between all that we have our heros.

The grief

Anji has the mean part in this book and it is nice to see what she thinks. She as really nice thought like get a T-Shirt with ‘i am the main character, don’t kill me’. She doesn’t want to travel with the Doctor. She just wanted back in her life. That is what makes her really sympatic. Also i like how the book handle her grief. So we can read little messages she wants to send to her dead boyfriend.

The parts with Fitz

These parts are quite confussing. Like told you above, we get much memories of Fitz and that deficult story. They are talking about people i don’t know, Sam, Fillpa, the Compassion… it sound all really interessting, but with out any background knowledge it is just like: ‘cool, i don’t get it.

So yes i can only recommand the book, but i would advise everyone to read the 42 books before that. Because the Fitz part is really confussing.

SJA: The Enemy of the Bane

Hey Guys,
we are at the final of the second season of Sarah Jane Adventures.

Bane is back

Mrs Wormwood took Ranis mother. So Sarah Jane and Rani goes to find her. Of course she is waiting for them, but she wants the help of Sarah Jane. This took them by surprise and i would not her trust her easily. Luke doesn’t feel confortable around her. The Bane are searching for item and Mrs Wormwood wants to find it first. This item is at UNIT. So Sarah Jane and Rani goes to visited an old friend.
Luke is troubled with Mrs Wormwood. He is trying to deal with it. He still feels lonley. Mrs Wormwood is playing with him and telling him that is his Mum so he frees her.

UNIT

The Brig is not a friend of the ‘new’ UNIT. UNIT seems to tell him, how the world changes for the bad, but he don’t get that shit. He is the Brig. It is so much fun to see him again and also meeting Sarah Jane again. The Brig is helping her to break into UNIT. It is so nice to see that Sarah Jane does see the man and not UNIT. He knows about Luke but UNIT doesn’t.

Mrs Wormwood

Mrs Wormwood of course don’t want to save the universe. She has her own plan and get to work with the Sontaran Sarah Jane defeated with the others. Also she wants Luke to go with them. Luke is going with them to save his family. Mrs Wormwood is trying to talk him to really go with them and work with them. She wants him on her side as her son. But Luke is not going for it. He does what he always does save the earth or tries. He don’t want to be a god. He really sees Sarah Jane has his mother and never Mrs Wormwood.

Arrow: S02EP23

Hey Guys,
welcome to the last episode of the second season of Arrow.

Which Way

Sara brings help the legaue of Assassins and we all know how the wants to deal with the problem. Lance is also seeing it that way. But Felicity again is the only one thinking about Oliver. She tells him that he doesn’t have to do it that way. Felicity is Olivers light, his ancor. So when he brings her to safty after Laurel get kipnapped, it feels right. Than he is telling her that she is important to him, that he love her. We all want that to be true. I really believe it is. But first at all it is a way to go to Slade. Felicity is the way to defeat Slade. Oliver could not came close enough to injected Slade with the serum. When Slade takes Felicity he is telling about how weak she is, but she is his downfall. The question is did we really see the last of him? I don’t trust A.R.G.U.S.

The End of the Dream-Team

Roy is awake and doesn’t remember what happend, when he lost control. The first thing he is doing is calling Thea, to make sure she is save. Also he wants to meet her. When he sees her, he wants to go with her. He really want to give the Arrow thing up for her. But when Oliver called, he goes. This time he needs to help. Roy will always choose to help, that is who he is. But he really wanted to start new with Thea so it broke my heart to see Thea break his. I understand her. She finds out he lied to her to and she can’t live with it. So she left him forever.
She decided to go with Malcolm and that is a mistake. I am a little afraid what he will do with her, what he will make out of her.

DW: 50th anniversary special

Hey Guys,
i rewatched the 50th anniversary special. When i watched it for the first time i kinda liked it. It was one of the better episodes but i never say it as an anniversary special…there was nothing really special… it could have been any episode… but know many thing i dislike now…

Three Doctors

I love to see David Tennant again as the Doctor. He is my favorite Doctor and always was. John Hurt is an amazing Doctor and i would have loved to see more of him. But this is just a celebration of the last years… not of all 50th years…This special shows me why i love David and why i dislike Matts Doctor so much… the Doctor forgets… i just forgets how many people he had killed. He don’t have to live with that fault like the tenth Doctor did. But how could he forget…moving on is a good thing, but forgetting not.

Bad Wolf

I am really happy that they didn’t bring Rose back, but Billie Piper. She is amazing and i love her as the Bad Wolf trying to stop the Doctor. I love how she interact and is looking at him. It is like in a way she is Rose but not the real Rose. Bring the real Rose back would have distroyed everything.

Two storys

It is for one the story of the Doctor making the decision to sacrifice Gallifrey and the story of the invasion of the Zygons. The Zygon story is not the best, but it have their moments and totally works for what it should do. But the Gallifrey story is now really bussering me. I don’t have a problem with bringing Gallifrey back. I love to see other timelords again. Of seeing Romana again. Time Lords are the best enemies ever. My problem is not even that they take that decision the ninth and the tenth Doctor have to live with from them. But watching this season before the special, makes me hate it. Because the whole season with Clara is a big friendly buttom. Nothing the Doctor does have consequenzes. He can save them, save all of them. no consequenzes. Never…

Clara and the other things…

I hate what Clara tells the eleventh Doctor. The warrior, the hero and the Doctor. That is stupid everyone of them is the Doctor. The tenth Doctor wasn’t a hero. He never was and if anyone thing about him like that, i think that they miss understood him. He was a god… a lonely god. Which makes decisions about life and death, he was someone, who thought of himself as a god, which can is own rules. He wasn’t a hero.
Also not everyone can be a hero… this is stupid a hero.. isn’t an easy think.
Also i hate the picture they are drawing of the Doctor. He always finds another way, he always saves everyone… that is not true. The first Doctor doesn’t even care about what happend to Ian and Barbara… He just thought about himself. How often did the Doctor destroyed the Daleks or did murder a race? He did it. This sacrificing Gallifrey is something the Doctor would do, can do, and did do. It is only logic for him. Everyone that thinks the Doctor could never do say a decision should watch Doctor Who again. Pompeji is only one example and when you now tell me this is something just RT Davis did, than i can only tell you watch the classic. He always did this thing.

SJA: The Temptation of Sarah Jane Smith

Hey Guys,
Sarah Jane is confronted with the posibilty of going to see her parents before they die.

Backstory

We knew a little about Sarah Jane. Her parents died early and she was living with her aunt. Here we got the whole story about the dead of their parents. She wants to know what happend. Why the parents left her alone. She knows that to go there is a mistake and trap. She tried to not go, but she can’t do it. So she goes back and she is right it is trap.
She sees her parents and can resist to talk to them. Luke begins to will suspicious. He don’t like that she go to them and see this boy. He has the feeling that something is wrong. But when she founds out that this is the day they die. She wants to save them. Luke is trying to talk her out of it. But Sarah Jane is losing it.

The world with her parents alive

London is destroyed. She changed on little thing and time broke open. The trickster is having won and he is right that she already lost. She don’t want to kill her parents. She can’t do it. She tries to find a other way but it never ever is another way. It is like the ‘Fathers Day’ Story with Rose.
She is despeartly search for a way. She needs help and wants the Doctor here. But he is not.

Parents ready to do what is necessary

Her mother is seeing the trickster and got that she and her husband have to drive away in her death. That this is the only way to get the world back. She is seeing is realizing, who Sarah Jane really is. They do what they have to do and drive away into her death and let Sarah Jane behind. They saved her and did not abandoned her. Her parents saved the world like we did see Pete did it.

Flash: S01x11 – The Sound and the Fury

Hey Guys,
here is my opinion about the latest ‘the Flash’ episode. The Pied Piper is the enemie this time. Here again i don’t know the comics and don’t know who the piper was and i has no intenion of ever reading them. I just enjoy the show.

More background to Wells?

This episode is about Wells and his secrets, his character and his past. Hartley Rathaway was a scientist and Wells favorite. He will always be his boy. Hartley is an ass and all the scene with Cisco shows this to us. But maybe he was just like that to them because he was afraid of losing his special status to Wells. For me it looked like they were friends, father and son and that Wells was like a hero to him.
Hartley conformied the fact the Wells knew what could happen. This are no news to me because it was always his plan that this accelorator failed.
The question that is important is how much did the piper know about Wells.

Trust

Wells lost that trust when he tells them that he knew what would happen. Cisco and Caitlin are really hurt be that. Also Barry. Wells always was his hero and in the episodes before Barry could see that he isn’t has perfect at he wished for, but risc all that lives that is something that take away the believe in his hero.
I hope that Caitlin and Cisco will make it Wells alot harder to earn their trust back.
Wells gives a pressconference and tells everyone that he knew that could happen. His is a big step because he is a character that doesn’t like to say that he made a mistake. But we all know it wasn’t a mistake. This pressconference just is cheap try to win the trust back. Alot cheaper is the Iris thing. That he only answered her question. But it was enough to earn Barrys trust back and maybe a little bit that he saved him…

The true intentions

We don’t know more about his plans, but we know that his power isn’t like Barry. He can’t always use them and he needs to charge them. He has his masterplans for Barry, but i think that actually working together with Barry beginns to change him. Maybe really beginn to feel bad about what he done or will do… we will see.

Joe and Eddie

Both of them thinks that something is wrong with Wells. The Story Wells told doesn’t seems right. So they are investigating him. This will end in a fight… between Joe and Barry and when i remember all the things other reviewer wrote about Eddie than maybe it will end bad for Eddie…

Broadchurch: S02x04

Sorry that this is coming so late, but i had the late shift and when i got home my familie wanted to watch Orphan Black Season 2. So i didn’t have time to watch. But now i am all in.

Mark Latimers mistakes

He is so sweet with this little baby and i think this is what he needed to get back to world. But i have a really bad feeling that the will make him the murder of his son in trial. They jump on his mistakes so much. Also he is now meeting Tom Miller the son of Joe. If someone get to know this, this will look really bad in court. Also it does something really bad. Because know with the baby he don’t want to meet Tom like that anymore. For the boy it is like, he is left alone again. This father left him, his mother left him – what of course so is not true, but thats what he feels, and now Mike left him as well… This boy is on the edge and i think i will do something bad…

Inside of Hardy

On the drive to a policeman that can maybe reopen the case sandbruck, Hardy opens up to Ellie and talks about the case and more important about how he found the girl. This is why Hardy is so focused on that case, the reason he can’t let it go. He is dreaming about it. This girl in the water.
Also we see a lot more of his family. We met his exwife and his daughter.

That Aunt…

Really, what Aunt is letting an 12 year old boy out so long after everything that happend? I would never let my kids stay with someone like that. This boy is not only just 12 years old, he is also mentally hurt. Could just someone be there for him?

Arrow: S02EP21&22

Hey Guys,
the final is near. So were do we start?

Mourn in his own ways

Oliver is running away again and don’t answer anyone. Thea is sitting again alone at funeral. We see an old face again Walter. The only person that was always on her side and be with her. She is thinking about living the city. Also she thinks that the lies, that Oliver is at fault for what happend. But when she talk with Oliver it seems like she change her opinion about the fault a little. Oliver is so right with what he says. Thea is such a strong person and always was the best of all of them. She is the light of the family.
But nobody could show her that. She things that she is weak.

Blood

Laurel is now again thinking that Blood has something to do with everything and she get her father and Oliver to trust her with that. Oliver is showing Blood that he is the Arrow and declairs war and the war is coming. Does Blood see that is like Merlyn? The army is coming and it starts everywhere. At the station where Thea wants to leave town, the police station.

Back to the start

Lance is becoming Detektiv again and is now working with the Arrow. The police is helping where they could. The old Arrow Team is trying to end it. Everything get out of control. Sara is coming back and all is standing head. StarLabs sends the antidote for the Mirakuru. But the Arrow-Team is not fast enough. Slade gets the serum. So it is good that Blood is feeling that everything got out of control and steals it back and give it to Oliver. Now the question is will it work or not?

Problems over problems

Thea has to deal with Malcolm Merlyn and Oliver with A.R.G.U.S., which wants to sacrifice the city for everyone else. That is the moment Oliver decide to test the serum at Roy and it actually works. But is it enough to win that fight?

DW: Season 7

Hey,
i just rewatch the seventh season of Doctor Who. The season that made want to give up on this serie. The season i fought me through almost every episode just because it is Doctor Who. For everyone that find the season good i am sorry, but for me it was bad so, so, so bad. It was the worth Doctor Who season ever. The rewatch don’t make it better… it make it worse to telling the truth.

First Part

The first part of this season is all about Amy and Rory. I was so excited for the first episode, because Daleks and than that… Amy and Rory want to get divorced can it come worse… yeah the episode is just so bad… that is real life and at the end everything is back to the perfect little life they had. Not just the first episode in every episode i have the feeling that there is no love for the characters anymore. There is character developement, and the don’t get time to shine. They just there so the Doctor can look good. This fight between Amy and Rory this could have been something great, something that they can fight for. We could have seen them proving themself to each other and not just erasing it like it never happend.

The only not bad episodes are ‘Dinosaurs on a spaceship’ and ‘the power of three’ but you just can look to close. The power of three is not logical at all, but everything else is good. Why i like the dinosaurs on the spaceship is a thing that i totally miss on Doctor Who. A group of people so different that have to interact with each other. I am still thing what a great season we could have with them as companions.

Amelias Last Goodbye

This episode could have been so good. The Weaping Angels and a big dramatic final for this amazing pair. I am truthfull i also cried by the rewatch but it could have been so much better. If the angels where just like ever and when the statue of liberty would have moved… what the fuck?!
Why had they showed this as a tragic end, why must the doctor so childish and imature to see that as losing? Amy and Rory are living a good life, a happy life, that is an happy end. They would have stopped traveling with the Doctor, they almost did the last time and we all know the Doctor stays never when they stop traveling with him. Never. He left Jo, when she got married, he never visited Ian or Barbara or even Susan.

Clara Oswin Oswad

I liked Clara a lot in Asylum of the Daleks and she was fun in the really boring Christmas Special. She is an nice character and i was really happy that she would become the Doctors Companion. I thought she become a little after Zoe. But than the first really episode came with her and Moffats takes all that away. All that knowledge she has was just a gift from her time uploaded…not herself. Also after that we don’t she her use any of it. She is just like every other companion in the new Who…doing what the Doctor expacts.
I just wanted a companion like Zoe. Which is more intelligent than the Doctor, one that things faster than him, just someone that totally can win a fight with him.

The second part

Is much worse…Clara is nice to see and they are many good ideas in it. The second episode is with the singing emotional, but the story isn’t really good. I am not a big fan of the eleventh Doctor but in that part will dislike him even more. All that impossible girl talk, all that why are you special. She is special. She is special because she is just a totally normal person. An ordinary girl with choose to travel with a stranger, which wants to see adventures, a girl that don’t run, a girl that stops and fight, a girl we see struggle with the death she is seeing. That is what makes her special and the Doctor never understand that is what makes her special not that he met her three times.

Old enimies…

The ice warrior is back. What lovely monsters they are. Than the bring them back and make everything they are wrong? Why bring him back, if you change everything? A icewarrior that left his shell and is super fast? A icewarrior you reason with. He is a warhero. An icewarrior of a team they wanted war, they loved war. When the Doctor tries to reason with him, if he wants to be know as the destroyer of earth the answer would be yes. That is what the icewarriors were. That is why the Doctor don’t like them, that is why the Doctor never believed the started peace.
So we have Daleks, Ice Warrior and that is not enough… lets make a bad story about cybermen… Cybermen that are fast and upgraded so fast… it was stupid and not scary… I dislike everything in that episode. The cybermen. The Doctor and the way he fights with the cybermen…it is nice to see all the faces but that is the only thing. Also i dislike Clara here a lot. The Doctor is at fault that the children are in danger and she just accept it? He has a time maschine. He could have brought them home and than came back. But no lets bring the kids in danger and Clara is jsut standing there and says okay. She just let him search for them and became a warrior… that is not Clara… not the Clara i like…she don’t struggle anymore.

The final

It is not so bad, but they are a few points that are stupid… and i don’t talk about the Great Intellegent stuff(which still don’t remember) that was totally stupid. I like the idea with Clara, because that is something Clara would do. But i hate that the whole season is a big friendly button. Nothing in that season has consequenzes. Jenny dead, but that Strax bring her back. Than Strax and Jenny dead again and they come back to life. Clara springs in that time stream to die but of course the Doctor brings her back. The Doctor should never visited Tranzalore but it just have no consequenzes…
Also i dislike that final wasn’t a final. It just was a prologe to the 50th anniversary special.

Kaito Kid: Season 1 – Part 1

Hey Guys,
after a long time i found time to watch Kaito Kid. I love Kaito Kid. He is a great character and the episodes with him are one of the best in Detektiv Conan. I always role for him and not for Conan. There are a few things that totally could find more screen time in Detektiv Conan.
Many people which just watching Detektiv Conan, have a wrong picture about Kaito and Sugaru. Kaito Kid returns all the things he stole, because he just trying to find the murder of his father. The second thing is that Sugaru knows that Kaito Kuruba is Kaito Kid and that they have with all that knowledge interessting friendship. So what do i expect from that serie is accectly that.

Kaitos Reason

One of the strong points of the Anime are that they point the things out. Kaito Kid is stealing as long as he search for the murder of his father. The give this time it deserves and shows us that he did return all the things he stole. That is really important because this is the biggest part of Kaitos character. He wants to entertain people, he wants to make them laugh, to believe in miracles. He is a good person. A person who wants to protect people that are close to him but also everyone else.

Family

Here we have to points to talk about. First of all, i like how they portayed the relationship of the Nakamuras and the Kurubas. That the Nakamuras are Kaitos family is becoming here much clearer than in the manga. But also the are giving his mother and father a backstory, that isn’t in the manga and really is for my a little stupid and like everyone is saying in the anime ‘to chessy’. Also the every day a advice thing is not logic for me and is desturbing the flow of the story.

The little Storys

A good point is that they take time for the little Storys. For the story with Aoko and the adventure in the school at night. They make sure that this mostly like the Manga and that is for me a really good point. But they to a really bad thing that is totally trouble me, that is Sugaru. He is an really improtant character in the manga. He is important for Kaito and his developement, he is important for the story. He is a reason we love the serie so much. Because he and Kaito are friends in a way. But at night he is chasing Kaito and he knows. He knows that Kaito Kid is Kaito Kuruba. This is a really important thing and i don’t understand why the take that out of the serie. He was just one time there. That is not enough that is the worst.

Gueststars

Of course they did the Story with Shinichi again and also they make a story with Conan, Ran and Sonoko what is accatual really fun to watch. But the Story with mother is just not mine. So no… also Kaito kid is inspired by the fiend with twenthy face and to make a another version of this it just seems to much.
The Fiend with twenthy face is a really good character and i love to read the books over him and if you interessted in crime storys and like the japanese style of writting just go and buy the rampo edogawa storys.
