gaggle64 Posted May 19, 2007 Share Posted May 19, 2007 Douglas Adams must be spinning in his grave. Unless he helped conceive 24, I very much doubt it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dante Posted May 19, 2007 Share Posted May 19, 2007 Anyone else think it was like a cross between The Impossible Planet/Satan Pit, Frankenstein, 24 and Star Wars? How about Planet of Evil and Ego the Living Planet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Bananagrabber Posted May 20, 2007 Share Posted May 20, 2007 Next weeks looks a bit War of the Worlds doesn't it? Victorian setting, the green falling star. Homage or rip off? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tellyn Posted May 20, 2007 Share Posted May 20, 2007 Series 3 of Doctor Who seems to be the king of ripping off other programs/books/films. For christ's sake, last night's episode name was the opposite of 24! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cube Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 Series 3 of Doctor Who seems to be the king of ripping off other programs/books/films. For christ's sake, last night's episode name was the opposite of 24! It managed to recreate the whole "timer is just shoehorned in" effect from 24, too. The episode started a bit slow, but the last part was great. I'm glas that this series is focusing more on The Doctor and The Doctor's feelings.

Ellmeister Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 The episode reminded of the black hole with the guy being possessed. As much as I find the program amusing, this series seems to have gone off the boil a little. But all this talk of 'the master' etc is getting my hopes up for some awesome epsiodes.

triforcemario Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 Next weeks looks a bit War of the Worlds doesn't it? Victorian setting, the green falling star. Homage or rip off? Neither. It's based on the Doctor Who novel "Human Nature", considered by many as one of the greatest Doctor Who novels ever. Besides, the adaptation for the TV series is based in 1913 (not the victorian era.

theguyfromspark Posted May 22, 2007 Share Posted May 22, 2007 I think it's great that people are already calling an episode they haven't seen a rip off of War of the Worlds!

Mr. Bananagrabber Posted May 22, 2007 Share Posted May 22, 2007 Ugh, way to miss the point entirely everyone. In fact, your commens suggest you've completely understood, but decided to be entirely ignorant anyway. Why? I mean, I made a single comment about how some scenes int he trailer were similar, and the Dr. Who faithful have to jump all over me. Jesus Christ, get over it. You'll feel a lot better.
