These ARE the Trailers You're Looking For.

It's that time of year again, where those of us mere mortals who for three days will constantly be reminded how poor we are that we aren't at this year's SDCC 2019, yet again 😩😶. Thankfully it IS 2019 and with the help of the magical internet, we are able to still get to enjoy the trailers, sneak peeks that those fortunate souls have seen with their own eyes. So, let's not fret, because this year, has been as promising and super exciting for many fandoms. From Stranger Things ' new season (is it season 4? sorry, not sure) to the trailer of IT  sequel, there have been many reasons why our Geeky hearts have been sent fluttering throughout the weekend. Not to mention the merchandise previews, etc.  There will definitely be many awesome choices to choose coming this Fall 2019 and beyond. What really got me excited was HBO/BBC's trailer for His Dark Materials  series. In the words of Obi-wan Kenobi:  These ARE the droids we're looking for. Yeah, I k...

Changes & Twists

Can we all just get along?!?! A couple of days ago it was officially revealed that the new Doctor would be played by Jodie Whittaker and ALL hell broke loose. The reaction to this news has been overwhelmingly mixed. And to be completely honest, I am getting kinda tired about all those piss boys who just can't seem to get the grip that this is 2017 not 1950. Seriously guys you're that insecure and feel threatened by a female Doctor?! Because it does come down to this: insecurity and fear of being proven wrong. And I'm here to say, GET OVER IT.   BBC Insecure? Yes, these piss boy are insecure of having their gender "stripped" from an important role and see this as an undermining of the Doctor Who series/canon. Well, guess what? Just because you guys have your own personal insecurities about your own masculinity, that doesn't mean that others can't and have the right to succeed even if they aren't MALE gendered. But most of these guys who are ...

'THE WITCH'S FAMILIAR': REACTION & REVIEW

Source: www.ign.com, Property: BBC/BBC America It took me an entire day to fully digest last night's Doctor Who episode!! Basically, they had my heart on a string and kept tugging at it that I thought i might not have made it until the end. But, here I am, still here, in one piece. So, kiddies here is my small & insignificant contribution to last night: Highlights: 1.) My constant panic at & concerning Missy betraying The Doctor and/or Clara (or in that case both). We all know that The Master has teamed up in the past with The Doctor when it is either convinient or they have a common enemy. But her/his unpredictability to switching sides is a constant reminder for us the viewers, that she should & must not be trusted. 2.) Direct reference when Clara was convinced, by MIssy no less, to get inside the Dalek. Evoking the first time Clara (Oswin Oswald) met The Doctor (in his 11th incarnation). It brought back a sad memory, but it also brough...

DOCTOR WHO Series 9 Highlights & Review.

So, yesterday was the world premier of Doctor Who series 9, and like many many of my fellow Whovians (and also because I was fortunate to have the day off) I tuned in. And it did not disappoint! So many references, so much drama, oh the feels!! The first episode was appropriately titled.  Source: theregister.co.uk  I think the move of returning the Doctor and Clara where everything (meaning the Great Time War started) with the key players (Davros, Daleks' homeworld, etc.) was excellent. The beginning of the episode, having the Doctor trying to save the unknown child, and all of a sudden getting the 'OH, GOSH' moment when it is revealed who the child really is, creates an instant dilemma for the our Time Lord. And as the episode progresses, we see the shame and urgency of The Doctor who wants to protect Clara and Missy from a battle he knows he needs to face himself. The deeper connect between Clara and The Doctor (when she and Missy are transported to the Doc...

Hello Sweetie.. The Return of River Song.

For those of us who we consider ourselves Whovians, just today we got a very special announcement from BBC and Doctor Who by giving us our Christmas gift early, sort of. And although we will have to wait for the traditional Christmas episode, it will be worth the wait because an very beloved recurring character will reappear.  River Song, the Doctor's wife will be included in the special. 😁😅😁 I'm over the moon with excitement in wanting to see Alex Kingston in her iconic role! Aside from the fact that I'm still a bit heartbroken due to Rory & Amy Pond not being able to travel through time and space with Peter Capaldi's incarnation of The Doctor, I am giddy to see River's interaction with her husband in the form of 12th Doctor.  Doctor Who is set to premier on September 19 on BBC One. The Christmas Special was announced to air on Friday December 25th. For more info. I leave you the link to BBC website: http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/doctorwho/entries...
