Watto's Junk Yard / Re: Doctor Who
« on: November 7, 2008, 07:02 AM »
I think there's a vast difference to the approach. In Romonavaratnaluna's case, it was a conscious effort to choose a previously known form. I would guess that in the upcoming regeneration it's the 11th doctor guiding the 10th doctor.

Maybe something related to the woman from the Library episode?  Maybe something slightly similar to when Tom Baker finally left with the Guardian.

I would love to see a special or two on the Time War.  It would nice to seem them use Paul McGann (I think that is his name) and have him regenerate to Eccelston at the end to tie the old series to the new one.

Repaints were inevitable for this figure.

There is suppost to be a character name (lower case) the doctor in the last special. The (upper case) Doctor regenerates into the actor that is playing the (lower case) doctor. So basically the Doctor is present for his own regeneration. At least that is the rumor.  ;)

The only thing that I can think that is similar is Romana's regeneration during the Tom Baker years.  An entire season was devoted to the Doctor finding the segments of the Key to Time and the last segment had been disguised as a woman.  Later on, Romana regenerated, but it seemed she got to choose her new form.  After coming out of a room as several different people for the Doctor's opinion, she settled on the person who played the woman who was the last segment of the Key of Time.

It was more like he was fired by the BBC. There will be four specials in 2009 with the last one staring the Master. That last episode will have a character simpled named the doctor who seems to know alot about the Tartis. It seems Tennant's Doctor turns into that character as a twist at the end.

Rhys Ifans is the favorite actor so far to play the Doctor in the fifth 2010 season. He played Spike in the movie Notting Hill. He is suppost to be related to the actor that played the third Doctor I believe.

Of course, James Nesbitt (from Jekyll) is still in the running for the role.

So, are you saying that Tennant will not regenerate into the next Doctor, but turns out to be some alternate character with a TARDIS?

I already pre-ordered the top book a while ago.  I hadn't heard about Gus's book till now, but I'm sure I'll get that one as well.

Since you essentially read his hand correctly, the real decision was whether you should risk nearly all your chips versus his draw.  He had 17% of the cards in the deck that could help him and two chances to hit the flush.  Perhaps a larger raise after the flop could have pushed him out since he was on a nine high flush draw...he could have been scared by a higher flush or that you had already made the flush.  Trips are a pretty hard hand to lay down, but I think I may have played as Jayson suggested and folded thinking he already had the flush.  Numerically, you probably were still a favorite before the turn, but you never know what card will hit next.

Ok this show is back AT LAST! Mr.P is a real creep! Can't for him to get some WHOOP ASS! I wounder Mrs.P power is? 

Mrs. Petrelli has the power to see the future through dreams...pretty similar to Issac's power.  I wonder if Mr. Patrelli was born with his power or if he was engineered like Nathan.  His power seems to have a kinship with both Peter and Sylar's powers.

That is a neat find.  I hadn't heard of vintage preschool stuff before.

Sounds like both a bad valve and a clogged radiator.  I would guess that you may have copper piping for a house that old.  The radiator could be made of cast iron which would rust over time.  Even though I have plastic piping, I do have rust scale in my water.  Over time that could build up in the twists and turns in the radiator, thus slowing the water flow through the unit and decreasing its performance.  At the very least it would seem you might need to remove it in order to inspect the internals or try to flush it out.  If the shut off valve just keeps turning, then I suggest replacing that as well.  You may want to get a ball valve instead of the gate or globe valve that is already installed.  While a ball valve can wear out if material gets caught behind the ball, it is easier to open and close and gives a nice tight shut off seal.

Just as my wallet was recovering from the sea of CW stuff.  I wonder when the preorder will be.

I wonder about the singer from Garbage's little girl.  It would be kind of wild if she were a mini T-1000.

I have a feeling that future Peter may have done some jumping around in time.  I would think he may have went back in time to absorb Linderman's power...how else did his brother come back to life?

I'm guessing Adam's blood continues to heal Nathan.

I guess we would have to see if HRG gets hurt and if he heals again...also, it seemed to take a while to kick in.

To David -  I am wondering if it really is Nikki...she didn't seem to have a different power, which would need some sort of explanation.

The thing with Season 2 is that they didn't really plan for the strike.  It was meant to be a slow burn type thing, but then the halfway point in the season became the end of the season during the strike.  If you have the season 2 dvd set, you will see that the original plan was to have the virus released and go from there.

The scene when Mrs. Patrelli has the dream of the villians being released and all the Heroes dead was shot last year and was supposed to be part of that season.

Overall, I enjoyed the episode.  I have a feeling that future Peter may have done some jumping around in time.  I would think he may have went back in time to absorb Linderman's power...how else did his brother come back to life?  With the new "Nikki" it does not seem to be Nikki Sanders since she has a different power...it would be a little hard to explain that.  As for Micah, I think that will be shown in a later episode.

There doesn't seem to be an exclusive version this time.
