I also think they should bring back the Krotons, since they're one of the few classic aliens who would look better realized almost entirely in CGI. (Plus, since they're crystalline and grown from vats, who can say that different Krotons can't have different shapes for different functions?)

Unfortunately, we can already tell from the location filming that these creatures are going to be mostly CGI, which automatically equals naff and boring. (unless of course, they kidnap the Doctor as part of a last ditch attempt to save their planet from the dreaded rolled up newspaper robots of Tau Ceti 8, which would be awesome)

Man, the universe is a strange and fucked up place, but I bet the Doctor has never come face to face with a Sesame Street monster before.

What about the Ice Warriors? Or the Autons?
And I can only assume they mean "creatures" more than "villains" cause other wise The Master is a ridiculous omission.

They try to hard to make something "The New Daleks" but they forget that the daleks' popularity was unexpected - they were only supposed to appear in one story, their popularity emerged from the bottom upwards, not because of execs consciously trying to push them as a big thing.
