Serebii Posted March 1, 2010 Posted March 1, 2010 That's the temp boxart for Volume 1 which features the first 3 episodes. It's also coming on Blu Ray
darksnowman Posted March 1, 2010 Posted March 1, 2010 Is it just me or does it look like it says SEX ? Yeah I thought thats what it was. Glad Dante clarified!
Serebii Posted March 1, 2010 Posted March 1, 2010 (edited) Oh yeah, the details that the retaillers have about the episodes on the Series 5 Volume 1 DVD/BluRay indicate that the first episode of the new season is an hour long while the rest are the usual 45 minutes Edited March 1, 2010 by Serebii
Sec Posted March 1, 2010 Posted March 1, 2010 Yeah I thought thats what it was. Glad Dante clarified! Still cant see it anyother way now
Ashley Posted March 2, 2010 Posted March 2, 2010 SFX often looks like it says 'SEX': I presume its intentional.
Serebii Posted March 3, 2010 Posted March 3, 2010 (edited) Sounds like good marketing lol Edited March 3, 2010 by Serebii
Dante Posted March 4, 2010 Posted March 4, 2010 New Info: - Production team acquired new cameras for the series in order to specifically give it a new look - a look compared to the likes of Harry Potter, Twilight, Tim Burton etc. - first episode is 65 mins long. - Current series films until the end of March - Next series starts filming in June, I would expect they do the Christmas special then. - episodes 12 and 13 are very FX heavy.
Ashley Posted March 4, 2010 Posted March 4, 2010 I've never understood how the fuck it takes Doctor Who most of the year to do a series (pre, production and post).
welsh_gamer Posted March 4, 2010 Posted March 4, 2010 I've never understood how the fuck it takes Doctor Who most of the year to do a series (pre, production and post). BBC Wales makes Dr Who, so naturally we're a bit behind with all the latest technology.
Retro_Link Posted March 5, 2010 Posted March 5, 2010 I saw that 3D cinema advert on TV yesterday, advertising it for Easter. That advert really should have stayed in the cinemas, it's aweful!

Definitely has that fantasy look you see in films, gives it a good distinction from the other series

However I do think they need to try and do something to distinguish it from the Eccleston and Tennant era. Perhaps this is it..
Happenstance Posted March 6, 2010 Posted March 6, 2010 It did make me cringe when I read that, i'll watch it but if it starts pissing me off then im just gonna have to leave it.
Cube Posted March 7, 2010 Posted March 7, 2010 So the style is both "completely unoriginal and bog-standard" and "completely original, even if it is the only thing that guy can do"?

From what I read, they said it was like a little pinch of those franchises, not like a lot of it
K-project Posted March 9, 2010 Posted March 9, 2010 God, they're filming until the end of March? Crikey, it's on telly at the beginning of April!
flameboy Posted March 9, 2010 Posted March 9, 2010 God, they're filming until the end of March? Crikey, it's on telly at the beginning of April! yeah but they will likely still be editing the back end of the series when it starts on TV.
Serebii Posted March 9, 2010 Posted March 9, 2010 They do that all the time. If I remember correctly, The Satan Pit was only finished the day before it aired lol
Ashley Posted March 9, 2010 Posted March 9, 2010 And I go back to my earlier point; how the fuck does it take so long? :p C'mon, if America can do a 22-26 part series (incl. sci-fi) between June/July-March (and air Sep-May) then sur -- oh wait...it's BBC...and it's Welsh. Never mind.

Ashley Posted March 10, 2010 Posted March 10, 2010 I won't take that bait :p Although take something like Dexter, comparable in length and consistently great and they only work 9 months of the year, and the first few are planning. (and okay I suppose a Californian working day is longer than a Welsh one due to sunshine but whatever...)

Never mind. But American shows often do one annoying thing which is continue to film/post episodes well into airing the season, causing large gaps in the series. The latest House Season is a prime example.

The latest House Season is a prime example. That's the network's fault, not the creators. Look at 24 and I think Lost. Networks decided to not break them up so its aired Jan-May/June.
