Bernard 33 Horsehead Nebula In Orion Constellation

My two favorite words of the English language: flabbergasted, and gobsmacked.

Okay, whatever else I am COMPLETELY behind the Good Omens soundtrack.

I always thought this shot in Age of Ultron looked familiar. The picture on the bottom is the closing scene of John Wayne’s film “The Searchers”, which ends on a rather bittersweet note with his character Ethan Edwards standing outside while everyone else is inside. The similarity isn’t just in how the scenes in both movies were shot, however. 

“Ethan Edwards is a throwback to an older time, a more violent age when the frontier was still wild. He’s a loner, a desperado who’s broken his fair share of laws and isn’t above shooting a man in the back. He isn’t cut out for family life like Martin, and now that his mission is over he’s outlived his purpose.”

If Chibnall ever wants to throw in some major darkness to Thirteen's storyline, there is a loophole to her kind personality.

Nowhere in the English language does it say that kind means nice.

Jenny ran into the mysterious woman quite by accident in the streets of the planet Earth, which she had learned through her various journeys that her father often frequented. It was a busy, curious place, this third rock from the sun, and she thought maybe she could understand why he liked it so much.

“Oh! Excuse me, seems I lost track of where my feet were going. Entirely my fault.”

The woman was dressed rather oddly, with a long lilac-colored overcoat and a dark shirt with suspenders. But it was the large eyes staring back at her that caught her attention the most. They were old. Incredibly old. Old, and wise, and shining with an inner fire that Jenny instantly recognized. 

And the woman seemed to know she would run into Jenny, because she quite simply held out a hand and handed her a bouquet of flowers.

“Violets,” she explained. “They represent remembrance. And I never forgot about you for a day, Jenny.”

An electric shock seemed to shiver down Jenny’s spine. It would be too cliche to ask how this woman knew her name; besides, she began to suspect she knew already. She barely dared to hope. It should be impossible. 

Shouldn’t it?

“Who are you?” She asked anyway, because those eyes were too familiar even if they weren’t the deep brown she remembered. 

And the woman smiled, a wide unfettered smile. “I’m the Doctor.”

I see Crowley’s ‘you idiot’ and agree it’s utterly heartbreaking...

But I raise you Aziraphale’s pleading, ‘Come with me’, is just as much.

‘A Little Priest’ has got to be the most passive-aggressive song ever written for a musical ever.

Donna Noble is indirectly (directly?) responsible for the Twelfth Doctor’s face, and that makes me very happy.

So did Mary Poppins inspire Missy, or did Missy inspire Mary Poppins?
