movies/tv [Spoilers] Thoughts on "Day of the doctor?"

I AM CONFUSED!

 

I always thought the Time War took place before the 1st Doctor, but then someone told me it took place after the 8th Doctor, which then regenerated into John Hurt, which then regenerated into Christopher Eccleston. So now I don't know when the Time War actually happened.

 

Besides, we never got to see Matt regenerating or the regeneration that would lead into Peter Capaldi. I hope that's answered in the Christmas special.

 

One last thing: Will there be any more episodes until Christmas?

Basically this. Seriously I'm so confused.

Wait... does this make Christopher the 10th doctor, David the eleventh, and Matt smith the 12th and Christopher the 13th?

Eeeyup, or that is how some people want to see this, even tho there is no actual confirmation about it. But it seems that...

 

They actually created and killed a Doctor just for one episode. Really Moffat?

 

Some people call him Doctor 8.5, so that we don't have to change the 9th and 10th and 11th numbers, some have started to call them with the "appropriate" numerals.

Basically this. Seriously I'm so confused.

I kinda always thought of it what happened before Eccleston, not before the whole thing. But that might be because I like to peek in Wikipedia (sometimes fer spoilers) and someone had written that the regeneration between 8th and 9th due to the Time War thingy.

Moffat has said multiple times that Hurt is not changing the numbering, as he did not see himself as The Doctor. Same Timelord yes, Doctor no.

I'd still call him the Doctor. It's up to the person itself how he/she wants to see it (After all, a person can decide to call a banana a strawberry even tho the society tells one to call it a banana tongue.png); but that's a good reason to call all of them with their original numberings and Hurt "Doctor 8.5".

 

I haven't followed what Moffat has said, so that is news to me. I have only stated what I have seen among tumblr and other whovians.

It was not that good.

The plot was rushed quite a bit because it was more complex.

The humor wasn't bad. I find this episode to have a lot of hilarious moments

Daleks.

Also, confusing. It made an alternate timeline, Galilfrey was not frozen in time and not destroyed by the 10th doctor. This episode shows the War Doctor destroying it. Not possible.

I give it an 8/10.

I watched this in the simulcast, and loved it. One of the best Doctor Who stories ever. Smith and Tennant have great chemistry, and Hurt was a great Doctor as well. My only complaint was that it was about 15 minutes too short. I'm nervucited for the Christmas special.
