This weeks Doctor Who episode Dark Water. Wow. I knew I was good with my theories but wow. I didn't realize I was that close! I so called it! But even then. What a plot twist! Good work Moffat, I really wasn't expecting that but now that I see how close I was and the whole name thing I don't see how I couldn't have seen that one coming.
For those of you who haven't been following my blog, back in September after the first two episodes had aired I had written a post on theories about who Missy was. Read the post here.
When it got to this:
Dread filled my stomach and I just prayed: "Please don't let it be Susan. It can't be Susan. It can't be like this."
As much as I would love for Susan to return I don't think I could handle it if she had turned evil.
So here we are at the last of the season. I can't wait to see what they're going to do for the finale and I'll be waiting very impatiently for season nine. My little brother was a little bit worried and started to worry me too when he asked: "they're not going to kill off the Doctor again are they?" I said no, but then I started thinking about it and thought: you know I have no idea. It would be just like them to pull off a surprise death and they only had planned on having Capaldi be in just the one season and they've already got somebody new picked out. While I hope that's not the case it is a possibility. Christopher Eccleston only had one season. Paul McGann only had the movie even though they had planned on that just being the introduction to a reboot of the series and he was going to take over as the Doctor for a while on TV. Sadly this never happened but I'm glad it turned out just how it did. Still I would have liked to see my first Doctor (8) in more than just the movie and short show.

Doctor Who and the Guardians of the Galaxy Review
In case you didn't know already I am a huge Marvel fan. Iron Man has been my all time favorite superhero when I was growing up, I only watched the first movie five billion times in the first month it came out. And another favorite comic series of mine as a kid was Guardians of the Galaxy (Rocket is the best)! I was super geeked when I first saw the commercial for it. I went and saw it the day after it came out in theatres and then again with my sister last saturday. I really enjoyed it for the fact that it was a little more comedic than most Marvel movies. Unfortunately, because of this, my sister (not a Marvel fan, or a geek at all in any way) commented while we sat through the credits that she thought it was rather "cheesy." She just took it for granted that being a Marvel movie it was going to be more serious, with your average team of superheroes going around saving lives. I forgot that she had no clue who the Guardians were. And when we watched the extra clip after the credits (which I won't tell you what it was, you'll have to watch the movie for yourself) she was completely lost. I don't blame her for that last one though.
I thought it was pretty good. I wasn't too disappointed with it since they hadn't been building up to this movie making obvious references to it in other movies (like the Avengers). Sorry but I was expecting a lot more out of the Avengers than that. With as long as we were kept waiting for it and all the movies leading up to it. Ugh! Sorry. Still not over that one.
Doctor Who season eight, review of episode one:
I love the new Doctor! What did I say guys? I don't know why everyone was so worked up about Peter Capaldi playing Twelve. If Steven Moffat was even partially responsible for helping choose the next Doctor I wasn't even remotely worried. Lots of people were concerned he was too old. Peter commented that if you think about it, he's too young to play the part if you want to get all technical. Then some were worried when Moffat said the new Doctor was going to be a little bit rude. So what? Look at the other Doctors.
Now we have proof: Peter Capaldi plays an absolutely brilliant Doctor. All you fan girls that were only in the fandom for the young hot guys playing the Doctor can either realize the true nature of the Doctor or leave. Don't let the door hit you on the way out. Who am I kidding? I hope you trip down the stairs and fall on your dainty little butts / face.
I was especially happy with the first episode. It was extra long, with references to the tenth Doctor and there were several moments when he really reminded me of Four.
Plus a giant Dinosaur in the middle of London?
How can you beat that?
I'm really looking forward to the rest of this season and lots more before we get a new Doctor.
Quick theories on who or what Missy is:
For those of you who haven't seen episode one or two yet, this will make no sense, so go watch the show. For those of you that have... I haven't read too much about anyone else theories and the ones that I have don't seem to make much sense; Some people think she might be Madame Kovarian somehow in a different form, or an evil version of Clara. Like I said: not a lot of sense. Based on the few seconds we see her in the end of both episodes my first guess was maybe she's a Time Lady possible someone like Rani. Short version for those of you who don't know Classic Who she was a rival Time Lady, evil genius, basically the female equivalent of the Master. She could have used her TARDIS to materialize around Gretchen just before the Dalek antibodies got her and she could have easily fixed the clockwork robot. The garden that they both woke up in could very well be part of her TARDIS. Maybe she's recruiting people who might have a grudge against the Doctor.
My other theory is based on this picture I accidentally found.
Until next time.
