You liked Peter Cullen so much you wanted to tell us 3 times about it, eh Rockabilly?;):p:lol:

You gotta love the glitches that forums sometimes create.:D

Peter Cullen used to do a lot of voice work for movie trailers too, I believe. Great voice. Optimus was a great character because of that.:cool:

I can't wait either. If it can capture the same magic that Pan's Labyrinth had, I will be hooked.:cool:

My only concern is the plan to make it into a trilogy. The Hobbit is a small book , i can maybe see them spacing it into 2 movies but that's stretching it.

Three movies? They made each of the main books into a single movie, yet the prequel book will be made into three movies? That sounds like a recipe for disaster for sure!:eek:

And rockin' with the new Avatar, Rocka!:cool:

Thanks , I think they may add more exposition or character development to stretch the story. It will be difficult to make 3 movies if they stick to the book faithfully. But more Gollum is a good thing "my precioussss". The studio wants another trilogy , the fans just want a good movie.

Back to Doctor Who .... the new logo is really nice.

The Specials are being released on Feb 2nd, 2010. There is even going to be a complete collection of the Specials called Doctor Who: The Complete Specials Collection. It contains Waters of Mars, The New Doctor, Planet of The Dead, and The End Of Time.

I think I'll pick up that complete collection for myself as a late Christmas present.;):cool:

I'll pick up the collection as well.

It sounds like there is going to be some sweet extras as well. Commentary tracks are just one of them.

Some more information about it can be found at www.tvshowsondvd.com . It's a great site to find out information about release dates of DVDs for tv series. They sometimes have reviews about various shows too. It's a pretty good site for information.:)

Tonight Dec.12 on BBC America they are playing the first 2 Doctor Who specials.

The Next Doctor followed by Planet of the Dead.

And the season 4 finale before that.

Dr who should be renamed Dr shit

Just watched Waters of Mars and it was alright but kinda of a let down hope the next special is a lot better
:yes: Jerseygirl Jen

I watched it as well , can't wait untill next saturday and see how the Master returns .... what's up w/ the collar?

I want to see it and then i don't want to see it as i believe this will be Teanet's last show and i hate to see him go
:( Jerseygirl Jen

Yup , He regenerates at the conclusion of it.

Donna Noble's granddad acts as his companion , and Lucy Saxon also comes back.

Then Matt Smith takes over as the Doctor.

According to the DR WHO magazine David Tenent is now consudered the best DR ever, But i wonder if they are just browning noising the newer fan base the ones who don't like anything before the 9th DR, I still feel the 4th DR was the greatest after all he was the DR that brought the show here to the USA
:yes: Jerseygirl Jen

Tom Baker has always been the fan favorite for many years , even David Tennant said that Tom was the Docpor he grew up watching.

But i think Tennant really made the Doctor more accesible to a wider audience , but that also has alot to do w/ the writing and the show as a whole.

Tennant really pushed his Doctor to the limits on Waters of Mars. Having lost so much already he broke the laws of time to save the survivors of Bowie base and must deal w/ the consequences of those actions.

Waters of Mars was the DR's biggest failure in end he saved no one or saved anything so this time he failed and the cost of this failure will lead up to Matt Smith palying the DR and we will all suffer and pay the cost of his failure, Some place Colin Baker is now the happiest man on the face of the earth as he is no longer the worst DR Matt Smith is
:eek: Jerseygirl Jen

Actually the 2 survivors who told of what happened on Bowie Base will have far reaching consequences that the Doctor didn't predict. Adelaide killed herself to try and put time and history back on course and for the most part succeeded w/ her part , but the other 2 did not and now they have descendents who should never have existed and it's causing a cascading ripple effect in time.

I'll give the new Doctor a chance to prove himself , after all his first battle will be against the Master.

I will say this , the new interior of the TARDIS is beautiful and so is his new companion. :D

But the new Doctor's attire is terrible and i hope they change it quickly.

DANGER WILL ROBINSON DANGER the Matt Smith run as the DR is about to began
:eek: Timelady Jen

To any fellow Canuckle-heads(Canadians;)), Space: The Imagination Station is having a Marathon showing ALL of the Doctor Who Specials in a row. This is either happening Christmas Day, Boxing Day, or New Year's Day. Sorry if I couldn't tell you the exact day.

The 8th DR
 

Yes the one who only appeared once in a tv movie produced not by the BBC and in away screwed up a lot of the DR WHO continum, So should this DR count or be disregarded like the two movies from the 60s, It looks like the tv series will continue to count him guess because of all the novels writen about this DR i always felt this DR should be disreduarded and it would unsrew a lot of the continum plus give the show an extra regenration but then no one ever asked me after all i'm only a long fan and don't matter
:yes: Timelady Jen

You matter to me, Jen.:):cool::respect:

If they wanted to, they could create a feasible means with which to "remove" that particular Doctor from continuity. Heck, they did it with the new Star Trek movie(and that was a changing of the entire Star Trek mythos!) so it shouldn't be too hard for just a single Doctor, can it?;)

And remember the "Shakla" Doctor , a supposed 9th alternate Doctor that traveled w/ an android version of the Master.

It was an animated Doctor Who special titled "Scream of the Shakla" the Doctor was voiced and looked like Richard Grant.

Sorry Shadows and Jen .... but the 8th Doctor is deadlocked and timelocked .... he is canon due to the novels and audioplays.

He might have only been in that awful movie but he is still counted. Besides it was the 8th Doctor who fought in the last Time War and ended it w/ dire consequences.

The shock of seeing what he did or as a side effect caused his regeneration into the 9th Doctor. And also split the 9th Doctor into 3 potential people , Christopher Eccleston , Rowan Atkinson , Richard Grant.

Since when did the novels and auido plays count? And they should have had the 7th DR be in the Time Wars not the 8th DR and the 9th DR should have been the 8th DR
:yes: Timelady Jen

I think they always counted , i think it's a case of bad quality control.

If the 8th Doctors movie had been better than it would have been continued w/ a new series back then , but it was just not that good especially when held up beside the previous Doctors.

Gee thanks

:blush: Timelady Jen

It all depends on who you talk to fans of STAR TREK all series STAR WARS and DR WHO have this problem with novels some claim they are part of the whole story others say they don't matter and there fore are not cannon i can care less about STAR WARS i've read a lot of the STAR TREK TOS novels and a lot of them were very good and some if counted is fine by me i've also read a few DR WHO novels and i find most to be well bad and poorly writen and should not count and sadly if the TIME WAR is ever done it will be in novel form i hope they find a good writer for it perhaps one of the STAR TREK novel writers or Peter David would be a good choice

:yes:Timelady Jen

No problem, Timelady Jen!:)

Darn those novels and audiotapes! Too bad we couldn't go back in time and destroy them all...wait a second! Since you are Timelady Jen we could go back in time to do that! Let's hop in your Tardis and change some history!;):cool:

Wanna go for the ride, Rocka?:respect:

If i could go back in time and change things i would go back to my conception and make sure i was born a Ggirl
:yes: Timelady Jen

I have my own TARDIS but thanks. :D

Good writing is the key to being accepted by the fans. The Time War is one of the key pieces to the whole revival of the series.

My TARDIS while similiar to the Doctors is slightly different as my avatar shows... i left it parked in a bad neighborhood , Jens TARDIS looks like a Vette. :D

Looks like you left it in either Trenton NJ or Camden NJ it's a mircale it wasn't stolen
:lol: Timelady Jen

I had the alarm set ... and "the club" attached to the door.

The perception filter is a little bit wonky. But it could've been worse.

I did have to hose her down after a hobo peed on her. >_<

While you were doing that i went back in time to my conception and made sure i was born a Ggirl so i now look differnt see my new avatar
:cool: Timelady Nyssa

Sweet .... how does it "feel" now? ;)

Not to good just my luck i'm having my period
:eek: Timelady Nyssa

:O

Oh my ... go Red Wings. lol

Goodnight Jen and Merry Christmas.

It's raining like mad and the wind is howling like a Banshee.

MERRY CHRISTMAS RB according to my clock it's now a few minutes past midnight, no rain here just some leftover snow from the storm that hit here earlier this week and it's a nice warm 20something outside



:yes: Timelady Jen

Dang! And on Christmas Eve to boot!:eek:

That is a nice Avatar, Nyssa. You are smokin'!;):innocent::respect:

My sister tells me i'm luck that i don't get periods, Oh the avatar is of Buffy the vampire slayer and i wish i could look that good
:eek: Timelady Jen

Hmmph , Willow was much hotter.

:P

:no: noway Buffy was way hotter
:cool: Timelady Jen

I prefer Willow. ;)

To each there own but i find him a little short

:lol: Timelady Jen

Ha Ha Ha Jen ^_^

Well you did say Willow and that's Willow, Do you know hard it is to find a photo of him is? Trying goggling Willow and you find mostly trees
:eek: Timelady Jen

I guess i should be more clear ... Willow Rosenberg as portrayed by the delicious Alysson Hannigan is a total hottie.

I knew who you ment i was yanking your chain ,Anyway i liked Buffy the Vampire Slayer it was a great show but i was proably the only guy to watch that show and wanted to be Buffy and not you know what with her
Anyway i just had to post a photo of the other Willow as it was too funny not too
:yes: Timelady Jen

Mmm Hmm Alysson is one of the illustrious redheads in my "spank bank".

Oh and i liked the movie Willow. I remember seeing it in theaters and have it on dvd.
