“Amy’s parents were wished back into existence and she barely bats an eye. Amy’s daughter is stolen from her and she barely bats an eye. But she’s willing to end her marriage because her torture at the hands of an assassin group means that she’s barren and her husband really wants kids. Oh, and she’s a model because God forbid Moffat pass up an opportunity to have Karen Gillan contort her body in slow-motion with a wind machine. At the end of the day, Amy’s life was not about Amy, just as River’s life is not about River.
And now, quite sadly, Clara’s life is not about Clara.”

Am I the only one who felt like Moffat tried in vain to top season one’s Bad Wolf story arc with his story in The Name of The Doctor?
Sorry Moffat. Nice try, but nothing has yet to top season one’s finale and if you keep running the show it never will be.
To the point where I wonder if all the Rose parallels were just pointing to the fact that Clara was basically going to “Bad Wolf” herself all over time and space.
You’ve ruined your own seasons, Moffat. Don’t start messing up the past, too.

Is everyone on Tumblr just ignoring Matt’s Christopher Eccleston impression from Nightmare in Silver because it was so bad?
Ok so before I mentioned about how she was always in red, but then I noticed something else. What if the red was to trick us. Look at these
See what it is yet? Blue. Oswin Oswald lived in a blue tinged dalex, Clara Oswin Oswald wore blue as a governess and Clara Oswald is often…
Adding to this:
Clara said in the last episode that she was still alive because she always listened to the Doctor. The Doctor’s companions tend to leave him when they make their own decisions — Rose choosing to come back from the AU the first time, Martha literally choosing to leave, Donna causing the Meta-Crisis Doctor and Amy choosing to go with Rory.
Clara, for all of her feistiness, doesn’t make any decisions. She’s spunky like Amy, caring like Rose, smart like Martha, sassy like Donna… but she doesn’t “disobey.”
I could buy this — if the Tardis literally built the Doctor’s ideal companion.
Billie and Chris getting along in the confidential for episode one. [x]
Yeah, he looks like a real drag to be around.

I clearly wasn’t paying attention to anything important in this movie when I was 13.

hobbit meme: [3/4 quotes] → “You’ll have to manage without pocket-handkerchiefs and a good many other things, Bilbo Baggins, before we reach our journey’s end. You were born to the rolling hills and little rivers of the Shire, but home is now behind you, the world is ahead.”
This makes it look like The Borrowers of Bag End are going on a smaller, though no less important, adventure.
