seamus_aran Posted May 21, 2006 Posted May 21, 2006 But I thought the Cybermen were in our universe. They were never killed off in the old series were they... they just appeared in an alternate universe. They're still in the old universe as well aren't they?

They're still in the old universe as well aren't they? Yeah, but it doesn't mean they have to be in it.

Cube Posted May 28, 2006 Posted May 28, 2006 Last night's episode was great (apart from the inconsistencies to RL - like the weather, date of first home video, buildings, etc). But still, great plot. Next on sounds ace, too.

Ashley Posted May 28, 2006 Posted May 28, 2006 According to my dad the language was all wrong as well. The Tardis may have translated 50s Cockney to modern day english
Supergrunch Posted May 28, 2006 Posted May 28, 2006 The Tardis may have translated 50s Cockney to modern day english Damn it, there's always a sci-fi explanation...
Tellyn Posted May 29, 2006 Posted May 29, 2006 Outpost Gallifrey has a picture of Peter Kay's character Victor Kennedy which will appear in Episode 10: Love and Monsters. He transforms into a large alien that absorbs people through its skin.
rokhed00 Posted May 29, 2006 Posted May 29, 2006 The Tardis may have translated 50s Cockney to modern day english There's always an excuse for sloppy writing.
Jack Posted May 30, 2006 Posted May 30, 2006 There's always an excuse for sloppy writing. Unless it's pre-Ninth Doctor, in which case it's always forgivable.
Tellyn Posted June 3, 2006 Posted June 3, 2006 I take it you're talking about Satan Pit. SHIT! I've been having barbeque, forgot about the Doc!
Hamish Posted June 3, 2006 Posted June 3, 2006 Wow. The Impossible Planet was my favourite episode of New Who. Yikers. Loved the Ood, loved the characters, loved the plot and can not wait till the showdown between the Doctor ... and Lucifer.
gaggle64 Posted June 3, 2006 Posted June 3, 2006 That was a great episode. It's like they saw the Doom movie, saw it was shit, then made their own version. Brilliant! Seriously, it all is very Doom dont you think? Lone facility, cursed planet, whispers from dark corners, Big blue doors, inept and overly curious scientists, Satan ect....
KKOB Posted June 4, 2006 Author Posted June 4, 2006 i was gettin Alien vs Event Horizon. loved it though! enjoyed it alot more than the cybermen first parter. The Ood make it great though with their glowing detah balls and excelent face design. the way they blink is kinda mournful dont you think?
rokhed00 Posted June 4, 2006 Posted June 4, 2006 The Doctor vs Sutekh, Round Two, I think. :P Sutekh is dead, seemed more like Azal to me, but he's dead too.
Ashley Posted June 4, 2006 Posted June 4, 2006 And I was getting Buffy (the writing - too old to be recognised is like Glory - too old to have any written record of) and Firefly (girl spaceship mechanic). The writing on the person reminds me of something as well, but forget what. Scrap that, this is what it reminded me of: http://www.d-boreanaz.com/gallery/albums/albums/photoshoots/09/09-002.jpg
Jack Posted June 4, 2006 Posted June 4, 2006 Sutekh is dead, seemed more like Azal to me, but he's dead too. Death's never stopped anyone in Who before. Davros died twice before dying again in "Remembrance of the Daleks".
rokhed00 Posted June 4, 2006 Posted June 4, 2006 Death's never stopped anyone in Who before. Davros died twice before dying again in "Remembrance of the Daleks". That's Davros though, neither Sutekh or Azal were anywhere near as important or popular, no chance of either of them making a comeback.
gaggle64 Posted June 4, 2006 Posted June 4, 2006 I think this is something else. I know da Who's been through at least one or two versions of Satan, but all the 666ing and talk about "Abadon" and "The Beast" ect. would indicate he's finally found Devil ver3.5. Now with 18% more forbidden evil!
Supergrunch Posted June 4, 2006 Posted June 4, 2006 The ood look like what Dr. Zoidberg would look like if he wasn't a cartoon.
Jack Posted June 4, 2006 Posted June 4, 2006 That's Davros though, neither Sutekh or Azal were anywhere near as important or popular, no chance of either of them making a comeback. It'd be awesome if they did bring Sutekh back though. I'm sure they didn't get Gabriel Woolf in just as a nice nod to fans of "Pyramids of Mars".
Hamish Posted June 5, 2006 Posted June 5, 2006 The ood look like what Dr. Zoidberg would look like if he wasn't a cartoon. Well, here is an early concept sketch of Dr. Zoidberg from the Futurama Season 1 DVD: Eerie ain't it. I don't know if this blatant copy stuff is coincidence. As well as the obvious influences in certain episodes, some the enemies recently have seemed like copies of movie monsters. The Krillitains looked just liked the Pugbats from King Kong (both also have very similar shots in them) and the Clockwork droids look very similar to V for Vendetta. Cat Women aren’t exactly original, the Werewolf looked like it came out of Harry Potter and I don't think faceless people are exactly original.
