    In reply to Ewan McGregor Finally Made A Decent Star Wars Movie
    I'm really, truly hoping that when one character mentions "dying of a broken heart" it's a shout-out to Padme's wuss out in the third prequel.

    I thought it was hilarious. Plus I’ll see pretty much see anything with Ewan McGregor. Did anyone else notice he seemed to have a hard time keeping his accent under wraps? #menwhostareatgoats

    @RandomFrequentFlierDent: I did notice that, actually.

    My favorite probably-shout-out was when someone said something to the effect of "Welcome to the Hero's Journey." Oh, Joe Campbell. #menwhostareatgoats

    @Chuck: "Midnight" and "Turn Left" are also among my top 5 favorite Tennant episodes, and the last two specials have been surprisingly lacking in the usual RTD cringe-inducing writing.

    He does tend to whiz it down his trouser leg when it comes to pulling off big endings, but even if the final two specials are crap, it looks like WoM is a new classic in the making. #theavengers

    @bluehinter: re: classic in the making.

    Let's hope so; it'd be nice to see him (and Tennant) go out on a solid note -- as much as I'm looking forward to Moffat's run, I'm leery as to what the new Doctor is going to bring.

    When it comes to big productions, RTD can't seem to stay away from fanwank and overly happy endings. Maybe he'll bring along some of the leftover grim from Torchwood. #theavengers
