A few thoughts on the trailer...

[elisi]

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 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:

*cackles* That (minus the Master/Doctor 'cause I didn't even *think* of that angle) was pretty much my reaction. How many villians has he faced who've tried to detroy planets/solar systems/governments? Not so impressive when this one's just the last in a long line. (And what I want out of that scene is what happens *after* the clip ends.)

I have no idea about the rest, but did you notice the shot of an unlit Maldavorium?

Yes and yes. (And like I said on doctoreleven, what I really want is for the Doctor to add "Twice" after his line about killing all the Timelords. :)

YES I DID!!! Eeeeeee! *flails some more*
