Arrow: S02EP3&4

Hi Guys,

the second season of Arrow arrived and now i am watching it on DVD. The Box with both season are not really beautifull but better than what we can be here in Germany. So yeah i am back at watching Arrow in english. I can tell you that it is a big changeover again. But i love to hear Colton Haynes original voice again. I will watch it like it is to see in German. So every week two episodes.

But now let’s talk about the new episode.
Roy Harper totally my favorite character after that tragic death of my favorite character Tommy Merlyn. Roy is a stupid little boy that want to change the world. He wants to make a different. He wants to protect them all. He wants to stop losing people. He loves Thea and he wants to be with her but he never can just watch. He needs Thea, do be his rock. Do be the one that holds him back. Thea needs him as her rock and him to help her let her anger and fear out. They need each other. But they are really bad on the other side. Thea lost so much people in her life and had to live on her on. That she can’t lose someone again. She needs someone, which don’t bring himself in danger again and again. Also to protect the one she loves she is ready to do anything also let him go. But he needs someone, which don’t let him go.
To take him a little out of the line of fire, Oliver as the Arrow is making him his informant. So the team Arrow is getting bigger. I really excited to see him interacted with Felicity and the others.

Laurel has changed sides. She is hunting the Arrow and wants him caught. Because she gave him the fault of Tommys death. The ironic is that her father, which tried the whole season one to catch him is now taking his side. He wants someone to help him making the city better and saver again. He don’t care who is helping him. That is an interessting dynamic.

Sebastian Blood is the hero in shining amor. But he has something on him that makes him totally unsympatic.

So the second part of Arrow is the past on the island. We see more interaction with the three. We see a really good and deep relationship between Oliver and Shado. This is really nice to see. Slade seems to be jealous of them. Also of course there are coming new bad guys to that island.

DW: Survival

This is the last Doctor Who Story for me. That is really sad. I am at the end and i don’t want it to end. But after that i will rewatch the film, because he is the real end and i will write about it. But i  can tell you i am not a big fan of the movie but of the Doctor. Paul McGann is an amazing doctor.

Okay, i like Ace a little more in the Story. She is anouyed at one point of the Doctor. He is havening problems with Cats and is not a real surprise that the Master have a play in it. I love stories with the master. Ace wanted to know what her friends are doing. So they go back to eart in the preesnt. People vanished into. There are this creatures and also it seems like thereis something like a sickness. The Master get yellow eyes and not just the Master. Everyone. It is a really good Story. Doctor Who would be awesome when it when it would be going on.

DW: Silver Nemesis

Hey Guys,

so welcome to a story to featured the cybermen,  two people travels from the past through time to find the power and a group of soldiers whats the same. In all this the Doctor and Ace standing.

It is an really interessting idea to have three groups fighting over the power. Nobody should win, but that is life. For me it is too short and not deep enough. I want more and i want deeper stories. The Doctor must of the time just sit in the green and hears Jazz music.

And here is a question ask by Ace, who are you.

DW: Happiness Patrol

Hey Guys,

now we are looking a new episode. It is from the design again a very special episode. There is the hapiness control and the literal candyman. I don’t like Ace very much and the last story don’t changed anything about it. Actually it seems like she does nothing. That is a step back for Doctor Who because the companions were ever the best of him. We don’t need someone how workship him and all she do is getting violant. I am hoping for more.

In this Story Ace is doing something. I don’t like her and she don’t get any real ‘action’ but she has something to do. The Story is not mine but the idea is pretty good. Because that’s how the world works. They want to controll everything. But you can just be happy if you can be sad. You need both. But i think the people will never learn that. What is really happiness?

At the end you have almost sympatice for the ‘villian’ and you must change your picture of the Doctor. Because how he saved the day, is cruel. This is a cruel Doctor and i like him that way. I can see the developement the Doctor was going through and the whole big picture is really amazing.

So see you for the next Story.

DW: Remembrance of the Daleks

Hi Guys,

i am really excited to see this episode ‘Remembrance of the Daleks’ because like the title already says it has Daleks in it. Also they promised me UNIT – I miss understood that. They mend a organisation LIKE UNIT not UNIT itself – and there is nothing i love more than them. So i have a high expectance for it.

So in the first episode we see the military that does hear what the Doctor says. Ace didn’t get warm with me and of course some Daleks. And for the first time in the classic we see that Daleks could climb stairs. But the second episode don’t is very interesting. Ace is not getting any sympathy. I hope there is coming a lot more to her character. She is brutal and a little dump.

So in the third episode you see a few things i don’t know what i should think about it. The little girl who is everywhere is working for the Daleks. It is – i don’t know – there is nothing in the episode I specially like. For me it is like they wanted to do something like UNIT, but for me they don’t succeed. There is not really a chemistry between the people and the Doctor. The character for me are to stereotype, to flat… there is totally no UNIT feeling coming up, just stupid army people. Even the ‘betrayal’ of someone don’t get me because, who cares. I don’t get any of the characters.

I hope for really good characters, I hoped for Mike, Benton, or the Brig. Characters like that make a story good. But this is for me (and of course some of the reasons are my ‘freudscher’ reading mistake) a totally disappointment.

You could make so much more out of the fight Daleks against Daleks… i am really disappointed. The only good think is that we see the dark side of the Doctor. The fourth Doctor had the order to eliminated the threat of the Daleks on the roots. But he couldn’t do it. He couldn’t do a genocide on the Daleks, even after everything they will do. But the seventh Doctor just destroyed Skaros. He destroyed a whole planet without much thought. That is a totally different Doctor that is a Doctor which is far away from the way he walked long ago. He wanted to see the galaxy, he wanted to explored the universe, than he wanted to make a differents, he wanted to save everyone and now he is becoming a warrior, he is becoming something dark. You can totally see that some day he will become the Valeyard.

DW: Dragonfire

Hey Guys,

in this story we meet the new companion Ace. I am not a big fan of her. She is loud and noise, she is handling problems with brutality. But we will see what is beneath all that. Mel and her have a lot of time to get jused of each other. They seems to get along fine. But Ace don’t get me on her side.

The ice gardens are really nice to look at. Also we have an old friend. Glitz is back there and is part of the adventure again. The Story just shows our true nature. We think first of all on us and do what we get the order to. Just kill a creature how is if you don’t want to harm it is totally harmless.

There are so many little stories of person how really have anything to do with the story. The Characters are not really intersting and the stories are not so much interessting. It is to much for me. This little kid in the really horrible blue dress that has nothing to do with the story… and there is so much more. Also i am really sad that Mel is going. Because. I love more people on the TARDIS. Maybe it would be more fun than with Ace and her, but so we have just Ace on board of the TARDIS.

I hope she will develope into something i like.

Torchwood: Miracle Day

Hey Guys,

i will be honest with you right away. This season has a really bad starting point. Because everything that is Torchwood for me isn’t there. I miss the base, i miss their pets, i miss Cardiff and most of all i miss the team. For me was Ianto the most important part of Torchwood. He was the soul, the heart, he was Torchwood. Without it him it doesn’t feel right.

But the season is not so bad as i thought. You can totally look it. This is a really big think and we will see if they find a good ending. I like the Characters. Vera is an amazing character. My favorite character is totally Esther. She is really amazing. She is strong, she is intellegent, sees what is going on, and even when her world collapse around her she gets her shit done. I like her very much and i want to hurt Rex every time he is mean to her even when he is right.

Rex isn’t a character i really like…not a little bit. But it is a good character. So Rhys has much to little screen time. I love him and want to see him in action.

What i really don’t like is how they show Jacks Sexuality in this season. Jack is not gay, he is not bi, he is into everything. But this season he is just flirting with the guys. I don’t like it. Jack is flirting with everyone. He was actually flirting with everyone when he was together with Ianto. He flirts with everyone and that should not be changed. That is Jack. That is totally a negative point.

Also they are to much explosions and so… i don’t need this big effects…

But i like how broken Jack seems to be and this is really good. Because he is broken not just because of Ianto, but because of Steven… that is really important.

This are my first impressions of the serie. I will talk about a few things that totally are spoilers. So if you don’t want spoilers stop reading here 😉

First of all the story is really a big thing. It is good but also you can’t become bigger after that. Because really they are building concentration camps in the whole world and nobody is doing same thing. Everyone, who knows me a little knows that i don’t like Gwen. Most of the time i want to stangle her. But in the Children of earth she has this monologe about what happend and the doctor. That was really amazing. Here is a scene that totally remembered me of that. She is talking to one doctor at that camp and what she said is so true. It is. The sad thing is that i totally see that happen. If something like that would happen in the real world. Everyone would exactally do the same. This can happen again so fast and who will stand up?

Because if you stand up you can end like Vera. Vera… i loved Vera she was a great character. She was strong and so human. She wanted to help people and she was one of the persons that was not afraid to tell everyone her opinion. Everything she did was amazing. That whats make her death so tragic. She was nice and sympatic not just for the viewer, Torchwood liked her. She was intellegent and just did what she things is rigth. She stands up for what she believed in. But because she was such a good person, she is dead. She said what she thought and that is why she is dead. This is really sad but also a really good move. You like Vera and her death has a great impact on the viewer and on the team. Everyone can die…

The background story with Jack and that guy was interessting and sweet but not really so nessessary for the story and for me it just give us more questions than anything else – that not get to answer. This whole three family thing cames a little short and there is so much in the dark. What did them do all the times, why did they do it and what was it what they are wanted? Just power? Wasn’t there a easier way to do it than that?

Everything about the last episode a really good. It is very emotional and sad. We see the world colapesing. We see how fast people adjust to the new world order. We see Rhys, who is trying to find a new job and what did he get? Drive the undead to the ovens. This is really amazing. What i don’t like is how agressiv Rhys became toward Danes. Thats not the Rhys i know…

I hate when people say that the death of that character was unnessassary, but really Esthers death was so unnessassary. Esthers is having from all the characters the most character developement and she was amazing. I love her. She is so sweet and than she dies and i am totally not okay with that. Why she and why not Rex. Yeah i knw because of Jacks blood… but Rex lives and Esther dies. No! Why are they always killing the persons i love?

I think that the didn’t need the church scene. It is one of the last scenes. They are at Esthers  funeral and the treator is also there and until that point that scene is okay. But than Rex finds out that she is the traitor and calls her and she is shooting at him and he dies and she get shot. Yeah and than we see Rex coming back to life. So unnessassary. I don’t like Rex also beeing immortal but it was clear so they didn’t need to show it again.

DW: Delta and the Bannermen

Hi,

so this episode is quite different. If good or not i can’t say yet. The first scenes remember me of Star Wars, she looked a little like Lela. The Doctor and Mel are going with a travel group and everyone is a little different. They get stranded in Wales.

It has actually a special dynamic. I have the whole story i had the feeling i missed a thing. I don’t know what, but something doesn’t feel right. It is a really strange love story and it has a really interessting dynamic. The Music is really good. It has something different. I don’t know how to discribe it, it is really fun. Also this girl, i forget her name would have made a really good Companion.

I know it is not much. I write about it. But i don’t know what i should say about it… you just must watch it…

DW: Paradise Towers

Hi Guys,

lets talk about the second story with our new Doctor.

So we have different ‘tribes’ and the red one are meeting the Doctor. They live in the Paradise Tower how has at some point a place for visitors. Some things seems to happen – of course. So the met the red ones and Mel is wearing blue. So she isn’t very welcome to the red ones and it didn’t need a lot of time to get the Doctor and Mel seperated.

So there are pretty much strange people in that story. The caretaker remind me to much of the hitler time and i know that is the intant but i don’t like things like that. But there are also these nice old ladies. The first thought i had was that they want to eat Mel – do i really have to say, what happend. Also there is this guy Pex and he don’t be part of a group. He is a pussycat. Everyone is bullying him about it.

It is not a real surpires that to defeat the big bad, they all have to work together. Also the destiny of Pex is not really a surprise. So yeah the story was not mine and don’t know what i think about the Doctor. Maybe after the next Story i can tell more.

DW: Time and the Rani

Hey Guys,

i am really excited to look this story. It is for me the start of the beginning. I will met the seventh Doctor and it is the last on that i don’t know. That means that there are only three season of classic doctor who left an the are not long seasons… I don’t know what i will do without a classic who episode everyday. First i think i will watch Sarah Jane Adventures… and maybe i will start again with the first Doctor. We will see, totally i will hear more audio dramas so Doctor Who will never really ends.

Let’s start with the story. The Regeneration is really sad… because you don’t know what happend an it is just over. But the start is a very good, because they brought back the Rani (from ‘The Mark of the Rani‘). The Rani, was a really interessting character. This time she gave the Doctor something that curse anmesia and is trying to play Mel.

Mel is make new friends on her own way. I think i really like her. Also the Rani is making a really good at her act of Mel. I love the faces she makes.  The Story i don’t i can’t say much about it yet. They actors doing an amazing play and it is fun to watch them.

The seventh Doctor seems to be sweet and really playfull. Mel is screaming a lot this Story. It is a little annoying. The Story is not so interessting but the person make it good. I hope will get the Ranis reason. Because she is not a bad time lord. She is just a cruel scientist.

I am a little disapointed i the Rani motives. She was so much better when she wanted to do her work and not playing god. But i really like her anyway. She is a great character.

I hope we will see such great characters also in the next story. See you than.
