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
@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
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
@Belabras ate my dingo!: ill be the guy about 2 rows down. I'll have to see it, cant avoid it, already given in.
The first was killer on the big screen. as long as the FX and the GR's attitude follow the first I'll be happy (remember the GR riding down the bridge frame to the water and flipping off the cops? True, comic book GR right there.) #theavengers
@Ghost_in_the_Machine: Yeah she really needs more screen time, i know she is a sidekick but i' d love to see her being smart arsed and quirky out in the field. #theavengers
@Little Time Bomb: I'll definitely give them kudos for filming on location properly and supporting the local economy but I just shudder to see how they update the Red Threat.
@Burke: I can just hear Swayze whispering in my ear "Avenge me! Avenge me!" #theavengers
@golddiggersof2033: Why didn't the blow up Calumet? I'd like to see that too :) (I lived there, I get to say it) Although it wouldn't be as epic as Detroit. They'd at least have to take Laurium with it.. Maybe even Dollar Bay for good measure. #theavengers
@Brian Fowler: Damn! Was that the subliminal message that flashed across my screen during V the other night?
National HealthCare= Bad, Scaley Reptilian flesh = Good? #theavengers
@Little Time Bomb: Is it wrong that when I read "blowing up all of downtown Detroit", I thought "And we'll be able to tell the difference how?" #theavengers
@Evil Tortie's Mom: R.O.A.C.H.: Oh boy I kind of snapped at someone in a thread below. I'm from the Detroit area and fairly sensitive about it. There are so many people trying so hard to save their city, homes and lively hoods. I feel like I need a banner "Detroit, it's different than you think." #theavengers

@shoroko: I was thinking that is Meg as well. We need some Mark. I wonder if Dean will feel the effects of the blood addiction while he is in Sam's body. And while he is there, he needs to do some bad bad things. Sam is far too pure for his own good. #theavengers
@pete.barfoot: I thought that looked like a different actress, especially since she left that body during the fight with possessed!Bobby, but you might be right.
@shoroko: Lillith repossessed the dental hygenist last season so it isn't completely out of nowhere. I'm glad to see Rachel Miner back, I was afraid they'd wasted her on that one scene. #theavengers

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

The first picture of George Clooney put me in mind of Billy Ray Cyrus...
Why, they could be bruthers!!
I guess I've too many episodes of his daughter's show with my daughter.

Why is it that RTD waits until *now* to start writing Doctor Who episodes I actually like? #theavengers

I flinched when I first saw his name on Torchwood: COtE, and came away mostly impressed (until about the last 90 minutes, specifically) #theavengers
