Doctor Who Ep 11 The God Complex

[Ursus Buckler]

A definite improvement over the first two abysmal episodes.

If we see a Cyberman smash James Corden to pieces that will make my day, week, month, year...hell it would make my lifetime!

OK, I just had a couple of revelations about this episode:

1. That was a really cool scene where the Doctor talks to the Minotaur and we only see them both in mirrors. Why? Because it's symbolic. The minotaur is a reflection of the Doctor, as we discover at the end of the episode. Pretty fucking cool.

2. RORY KNEW. When the Doctor asks him if he's found his room yet and he says no, the Doctor says "Maybe you aren't afraid of anything", to which Rory replies "Well, after all the time I spent with you on the TARDIS, what else is there to be afraid of?" or something like that. The Doctor points out that he said this in the past tense, which Rory denies. Anyway, the point is that RORY FUCKING KNEW.


.....HOW DID HE KNOW??!!! Was he just planning on leaving the Doctor soon when he said that? WHAT WAS THAT??!!

though i'm not a massive Dr Who fan it was pretty good. not the best episode ever but was good. surprised about the ending and the Weeping Angels were a welcome come back even if they were only in it for 1 short scene

So, one, Rory knows and accepts that soon he would leave the TARDIS. Two, gotta love a 'minotaur in the maze' symbology. Three, do we have to start calling her Amy Williams? and Four, I don't think the Doctor could have seen himself, since Rory's biggest strength is himself, and he didn't have a room.

As for what was in The Doctor's room, that is easy to say: It was the TARDIS, because other than himself, it is what he would have the most faith in.

That would be true, if their greatest faith was in their room. As it was supposed to be his greatest fear, though, my money is on whatever it was he saw when he looked into the untempered schism as a kid, as we occasionally hear about how he 'never stopped running'. That, or some kind of anthropomorphic personification of death, which we see him running from all the damn time.

I thought that the way they left with amy and rory was really unexpected but also it was too uneventfull he just left them there
