Caitlyn Posted August 15, 2013 Report Share Posted August 15, 2013 I don't think they'll end with 13. The show is 50 years old and it has the potential to last another 50. Speaking of "The Fires of Pompeii," the episode is free on iTunes until the 27th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piratenovelist Posted August 15, 2013 Report Share Posted August 15, 2013 Thanks for the tip! I've gotten it . I've seen so many funny tumblr edits saying Peter went back and whipped his memory as a timelord it got a chuckle outta me I'm trying right now to write out my doctor who dream into a fan fiction haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chriss Posted August 16, 2013 Report Share Posted August 16, 2013 Welcome fellow Whovian! My take on the 13 regenerations rule is that it's not a biological thing, but more of a rule the Time Lords enforced. Now that they aren't around to stop the Doctor at 13, I think he'll be able to go on much longer. The Master either received more generations or cheated his way through several of them, didn't he? So it can be bypassed. I think this will be all of our first real-time regeneration. Come December 25th, this will become a grief counseling post.

Piratenovelist Posted August 16, 2013 Report Share Posted August 16, 2013 Yes it can definitely be bypassed and river gave the Doctor all her remaining regenerations as well that's a good 10 right there. This will most definitely be a much needed grief place once the special hits. I'm trying to watch Torchwood to pass the time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caitlyn Posted August 16, 2013 Report Share Posted August 16, 2013 I like both of those explanations. And Torchwood = more heartbreak. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piratenovelist Posted August 16, 2013 Report Share Posted August 16, 2013 Well if your remember the Doctor homeworld is in a time lock (((end of time part 2) ) So the council that is the control of regens is no longer technically there so he can regeneration all he wants I dunno if I said this or not this was basically so no time Lord could be immortal Goodness me I can actually geek out and I'm fine for once haha Also when I saw panic at the disco I put on my band/ Dr who shirt I made and got like 10 likes from it haha 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piratenovelist Posted August 16, 2013 Report Share Posted August 16, 2013 Also I want to point out that the time Lords needed the master to try and get out of the time lock from end of time too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caitlyn Posted August 25, 2013 Report Share Posted August 25, 2013 So a screencap leaked. I don't think it would majorly spoil anything, but I'll put it under a spoiler tab anyways: But someone very naughty snapped a picture of it during the Edinburgh TV Festival.

Chriss Posted August 25, 2013 Report Share Posted August 25, 2013 I saw that screencap the other day on Facebook, and then kind of forgot about it, lol. When do we get this trailer already? I swear after Comic Con International, they said it would be up later that day, and here we are a month later with nothing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caitlyn Posted November 16, 2013 Report Share Posted November 16, 2013 I think the theater on my campus is showing it for free, so I'm going to try to pick up tickets tomorrow. I don't have anyone to go with either. :\ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caitlyn Posted November 18, 2013 Report Share Posted November 18, 2013 So the theaters around my school are sold out of tickets. I'll have to find a live stream! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
