And I could not help but think of Pandorica opens when I got to the trap speech in the time of angels.
Watched Time of Angels today and one bit really stood out to me, when River is reading from the book about the weeping Angels, and she says something about "when ideas can think for themselves and dreams no longer need us the time of Angels will be upon us"...
The eighth Doctor audio drama Brave New Town as a similar premise, with a group of Autons who think they're people when they never get activated by the Nestenes.
That quote from the cliffhanger to "Time of Angels" reminded me why I'm now a huge Matt Smith fan. That was great delivery and yes is tempting me to re-watch the series, so many threads and lines in play that could end up possibly playing a part in Saturday's finale. I've said it before and I'll keep saying it until it happens or not but I really hope that Steven releases his scripts.
I've never had a problem with the costume design, rather my problems with them were the writing and presentation of the characters: the stomping, yelling "Delete! Delete! Delete!" and their origins being exactly the same as Genesis of the Daleks.
Did anyone think of the Borg when the Cybermen said "You Will Be Assimilated?" lol
Yeah I did. It was very amusing.
From what I understand, "You will be assimilated" was the Cybermen's catchphrase decades before the Borg were created.
^ No, it's not a line they've ever used before. It's "resistance is useless" that the Borg ripped off.
^ but did they enjoy shouting it as much as the Vogons?
Yeah, it was the most unsubtle reference I've ever seen.
Now you've got me wondering if the Cybermen ever tried writing poetry.
Oh yes they did.
Pffft. Hardly the worst in all the galaxy, is it?
Of course not. Paula Nancy Millstone Jennings of Sussex wrote the worst poetry in the universe, as we all know.
Hmm. I prefer Vogon poetry to Cybermen poetry. The Vogons are just better at using interesting rhythmic devices to counterpoint the surrealism of the underlying metaphor.
