Um… because he wasn't actually dying, just regenerating? Even Steven Moffat loathes that scene.

Except here, it's justified.

If you Google it, he's actually complained about it in public fora. It seems he was free for the part, but was never approached.

Um… how exactly does one torrent? :-/

I think it was Spain, actually.

@avclub-c1bac1d55ebcc415d61552acbfbb219d:disqus — Indeed, sir. And that pisses me off to no end.

"The Web of Fear" seems to've already gone down in TARDIS Eruditorum's estimation: http://www.philipsandifer.c…

Not to mention that soundtrack. HOOOOLY jesus…

The original GoldenEye script by Michael France with Timothy Dalton as Bond. Holy goddamn FUCK, do I wish that was the version we got onscreen.

Blame Clint Eastwood for that DGA clause.

Comes A Horseman

And the guy who'd done it before Lucky was Peter goddamn Cullen. What a crime to not rehire that guy.

Or Eakin. Marah, you're adorable, but please let the master do his work.

Al Leong! :-D

No, he just liked long words. Used a lot of them in his prose.

I was saying the same thing. Also, what's with the shitty fake beard?

I'm just disappointed they didn't give Henry the Moe Howard-cut he sported in real life.

Thanks for pointing that out. ;-)
