A few thoughts on the trailer...

Random observations. Plus why I think RTD is totally shipping Doctor/River. ;)

ETA: Just remembered that I was going to use this icon. If you can't read the text, it says 'The Doctor in the TARDIS doesn't know' - I chuckle every time I see it.

CANON! CANON! CANON! CANON! CANON! CANON! CANON! CANON!

(This will never get old!)

For anyone still confused, 'Ee by gum' is a Yorkshire colloquialism (very common around here), and the best description I've come across is this one, by [livejournal.com profile] petrichor_fizz:

'Ee by gum' does have a meaning but it's not very specific. It's basically an expression of mild surprise or bewilderment, but also a sort of catch-all, like 'gosh'. So you could say 'ee by gum!' when your whippet gets bitten by a ferret wearing a flat cap, or 'ee by gum I'm right weary' if you've had a bit of a long day.

I am 99% sure that these two images are linked.

"Fear me. I've killed hundreds of Time Lords."
"Fear me. I've killed all of them."

This is v. v. awesome. Partly because he has a wonderful way of being quietly threatening, but also because there is a certain eye-roll factor to the way he delivers the line. I can pretty much hear him thinking: "Oh you're evil, I get it. My ex-boyfriend was like that all the time! It's neither big nor clever, so just stop it already."

~~~



Can anyone see what it is Amy has on a string around her neck? My mind immediately went to S3 and TARDIS keys... Apparently it's a pen on a lanyard!

~~~

ANYWAY. Lots more I could talk about, but instead I shall take the opportunity to link together RTD and Doctor/River. Like so:

That's kinda gross. Funny, but gross.
. . . says the person who just connected a genocide to a penis joke *eyebrow*

Although the bouncing My Little Pony is VERY distracting. :)
I love it so much! I've been making up excuses to use it. I wasn't even going to reply to this comment, then I realized I could use bouncing Pinky Pie again =D

WATCH IT WATCH IT WATCH IT WATCH IT!!! It's delightful and actually very smart (well, the pilot is a bit heavy-handed, but it gets better) and makes me feel happy about humanity pony-kind! For a tv show, the investment risk is minimal (the whole thing's on YouTube, little twenty-minute episodes you can down like candy, less than ten hours total, little chance of accidentally having to write 10,000-word meta), and if you watch it you can have all kinds of colorful, bouncy icons, and are also authorized to call other fans "sugarcube" and to use this (entirely apt) macro:
