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: Destiny of the Doctor – Shadow of Death

So here is the second part of ‘Destiny of the Doctor’. The second doctor is featured in this story with Jamie McCrimmon and Zoe Heriot. Both really amazing companions.

It starts with a really interessting question, who old are they. The Doctor is making fun of Jamie and tells him that he is thousand years old and of course jamie didn’t believed him. But when he tries to think how much time he traveled with the Doctor he could answer that.
When they land he is telling them the whole time that they are save and of course their not save. They are never save.

So it seems like parts of the planet there on are jumping in another timeline? So parts are moving faster than others. Also there are this shadows, that makes people age really fast and die. Thay think that this shadows murdered the civilasation on that planet.

The Doctor becomes of course a messages of the Doctor. The Story is nice. Really good to hear. Freazer Hinz is making a really good job with his readings. He really good at speaking the Doctor. It is really amazing how he did it. I like the turn they are making with the shadows, that they only wanted to comunicated. The Story is good but nothing really amazing – just a nice story.

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: Destiny of the Doctor – Hunters of earth

Of course i couldn’t let out a 50th years anniversary special and of course i have the TARDIS version of this special in my room.

The first volume is about the first Doctor (William Hartnell) and his granddaughter Susan. I am not a fan of Susan. But the story is not bad.

The TARDIS is damaged and the Doctor is trying to repair it and in this time Susan is going to school of course on the famous school ‘Coal Hill School’. It is like what happen before they met Barbara and Ian. Susan is make a friend Cedric. Of course that is not the story. It beginns with that girl what goes kinda crazy and going to attack Susan and telling her that: she is different and that nobody wants her here, she should just vanished.

Also there is in the radio a song that is from the Doctor for Susan Foreman and Cedric with a very special message about Woodstuck and the Beatles. Also ‘it is all in the wind, Cedric’. What do we made out of it?

The Doctor tries to become a few parts for the TARDIS and there is a guy, who seems to know more about him. He thinks that the Doctor operation basis is in totterslane. Also a few teenagers are attacking the Doctor and tell him ‘that he should go to his own species’. So it seems that many people know about them. So it is not what it seems first. It is about the people who are afraid of the unkown and the desire to use the knowledge of this unkown persons. It is about the Doctor and his opinion about the humans, what has nothing to do with the opinion he had in the new serie. It is about fighting wars.

It is on of the better Stories from this series. Oh yeah, Carol Ann Ford is reading the Story.

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…

Torchwood: Rift War

So,

i could resist and had to buy the ‘Rift War’ it is a comic from Torchwood. So this comic strip is drawed by different artist. So i will talk about the chapters and than about the whole story.

The first chapter is not my art. I don’t like the way it is drawn, the same is it for chapter two. But the characters are really well written. It starts with creatures that came through the rift and attacking humans. Torchwood is on the way to fighting them. Also it seems like this creatures are in war with Torchwood, just Torchwood don’t know anything about it.

The second chapter is about the vanishing of the Torchwood mainquarters and Tosh with it. Tosh is in the space between and met there a strange guy named Vox, which seems to know a thing about this creatures and the rift.

The third and fourth chapter is looking really amazing. I like the way it looks. The third chapter is really sweet it is about gwen and rhys raising a alien baby. The fourth chapter is about dinosaurs in  our time and Vox says that he can help to heal the rift forever.

The fifth chapter is about gwen and jack in the past. Also it is Vox which brings them there and bring them back. It is a really special guy. But this chapter and the sixth is not my art. I don’t like the way it looks. The sixth chapter is about a time overlap. So we met the old Trochwood.

Chapter seventh and eigth find kinda ugly but also it is a more realistic style what i like more. So yeah… i don’t know it are a special chapters from the artworks. Also we find out a little more about the creatures and about Vox.

Chapter nine and ten  are also not my style. This is the big finale. Yeah i know i didn’t write much about the comic. So lets say, i was dissapointed. Not just about the drawings because i am not a big comic fan (i am more the manga guy). But the story is not so good. The episode are to short to be reall emotional or thrilling. The turning point is not really surprising. I think must people did see this caming. It is nice and so but not more. If i had read it before i bought it, would had bought it.

There is also a bonus story in there. She is really short and i like the drawings. But it is also not a deep story, just scratching the surface, if you could call that scratching…

I love Torchwood and i love things where everyone is still alive. But i can’t recommend the comic. For me it was to disapointing.

DW: Frostfire

Here we are,

i have listened to a new story of ‘the Companion Chronicles‘. It featured Vicki and is also read by her actor Maureen O’Brien. Her voice is a little different, i needed a moment to really identify it with her.

She don’t have a audio book voice. I know i heard the brig and i couldn’t stop listing. But by her it is different. It is not so easy like others. But she is making a good job.

She is visiting someone and is reading him what she had written about her adventures with the Doctor. So it is sad that this story take place after Ian and Barbara left. I am not a big fan of Steven. I liked the family Ian, Barbara, the Doctor and Vicki so much. The landed on the earth and met Jane Austin.

It goes about an egg, a phoenix egg. Vicki is afraid of this egg, because she thinks it will come for her, but the egg get stolen. Also everyone is mention that it is cold. Also the person Vicki read her story to, is also telling that she is getting cold and so. He is also laughing on really special parts of the Story.

We see that all what happend to her still makes her feel bad. Also we get that the person that he read to have something to do with the Story. I really like the structure of the Story and the idea. But the Story on it own, just don’t enthral me.

The very interessting think is what we get to know about her life. The life she choose, but if she know what it would be like, she wouldn’t have choosed it. It is just not my story.
