Best movie of 2023!

“Either way, you can be sure these are going to be hot properties once they reach theaters in the USA (and maybe Canada?) later this summer.”

No-one ever remembers it, but RTD - a long long time ago - had a kids tv show called Century Falls. It was like “My First Wicker Man” in vibe (some kids move with their family to some rural wee town where there’s a sinister cult trying to waken an evil spirit) and this really felt like a callback to that sort of…

I think she got name-dropped in one of the eps when the Doc was explaining being “The Doctor” so I think that, in line with the “it’s never Lupus” thing, does make it very unlikely.

There’s always potential variables though - what if the person was carrying some sort of explosive device tuned to go off on a deadman’s switch, for instance? It’s a war, after all, against an enemy they know zero about (by their own admission) and a complete stranger is standing in the middle of said warzone. Could…

The one thing I truly disliked about this episode was the utter abject stupidity of the soldiers in this, even with the whole “soldiers just follow orders” stuff.

Young child you’re very fond of is standing right next someone who is on a landmine and telling you if they drop the thing they’re holding, it will blow up.

Do…

I am now absolutely convinced “There’s Always a Twist at the End” was a meta-reference song, and “Susan Twist” is going to basically “Agatha All Along” things.

Remember “The Doctor lies” - and that goes for those behind the Doctor as well.

I feel the same about Furiosa from the trailers; it feels a bit too CGish, which would surprise me given Miller’s history, so I’ll go in with a totally open mind and hoping it’s great.

They will answer your question, but in the form of a 10-page slideshow. ;)

I don’t see why it’s difficult - just don’t put it in the trailer/tv spots.

I will forever die on the hill of “They should NEVER have shown Maul’s second blade in the trailers.”

I’d rather it was DV’s than Brian Herbert and Kevin J Anderson’s, tbh!

That’s a phone moment - it should have been “is” not “isn’t” - fat thumbs. I quite like the idea of a fourth wall breaking thing given the way the Toymaker et al are sort of “outside” the standard universe. So my bad there - not enough proof reading when I’m mashing the buttons ;)

I didn’t hate Maestro in the quieter moments, but the louder moments were like nails down a blackboard for me. I said in my own comment; it was Will Ferrell’s Mugatu, only turned up to 11.

“The temperaments of the Doctor and Ruby are too similar, too frenetic, and not endearing enough to make me like them very much. I am fast losing interest.”

I said in my own comment that Maestro felt very like “Mugatu” from Zoolander in delivery; OTT shouty/screechy stuff.

That was my first thought as well, tbh. Wonder who the father will end up being in that case...

I hope “There’s always a Twist at the end” isn’t some meta thing going for an “It was Agatha all along...” type deal!

Mixed feelings on these.
