Jan. 7th, 2010 09:29 pmAnd now, the Ru-action to the Doctor Who season 5 trailer, coordinated with the scenes as they appear:
--I'm still not sure what I think of Eleven's look. It seems like at least appearance-wise, it's an attempt at Ten v. 2.0, which bothers me. Ten is definitely a very hard act to follow, but I don't think imitating him is the best way to go. I kinda sorta wish they had gone with the all-black look I saw in some of the early promos, which is kinda reminiscent of Nine, but wholly different. It also speaks to the darker stories Moffat seems to be known for.
--Oooooon the other hand, Ten was never really known for punching people or shooting guns, so that may be where they deviate. I can't help but think a little brash-teenager-ish. Which actually could be kind of interesting. On average, the older the Doctor gets, the younger he becomes.
--HOLY SHIT WEEPING ANGELS SHIT SHIT SHIT AAAAAUGH. D: D: D:
--Ohhhh, please don't tell me they're going to hop on the vampire bandwagon. Please?
--(DOCTOR + PLUNGER) + DALEK = WIN
--I'm interested to see how the new companion works out. She's very cute, and at least from the preview, seems to be a policewoman? I think? Maybe that'll give her a bit of a tougher edge. Appearance-wise, she makes me think of a young Donna.
--I'm still not sure what I think of the new logo. It's very cleverly done, but it feels...I dunno. It feels like it's aimed at the younger crowd, instead of appealing to all. Maybe I'm reading too much into it. At least the old logo made it very plain as to what it was. We'll see.
