@@merchskele7507 It's a paradox how they call him a good man, yet they fear him. I mean good men are something you HAVE to fear right? The Doctor's line was delivered perfectly, no doubt, it's just that they call him a good man, as it being just a name, or what, it lost it's original meaning. Like River said later, the word Doctor means a wise man, but for the people of Gamma (or what planet), it meant a great warrior a complete opposite meaning, I dare to say.

I gotta say it, cause it drives me mad. I know we don't really count one of the Doctor's but it was still a regenaration nonetheless, so in true fact: SMITH IS NOT 11! HE IS NUMBER 12! AND IF YOU DON'T BELIEVE ME, THEN GO WATCH DAY OF THE DOCTOR! Time Lord Bigwig who's name I forget: I was right, they're all here, all 12 of them. PETER CAPALDI: NO SIR! ALL THIRTEEN!!!!!!

[@gpearce11]

@@Offical_RemyKWNicholls Technically yes, there have been 14 regenerations of Time Lord know as "The Doctor". However, considering that "Doctor" is a self appointed title, if he wants to disavow one of his regenerations who are we to argue with him? That's why I still consider the current Doctor to be the 13th. Think of it like a film franchise with a spin off film; its still Canon, but it's not considered one of the main movies. To use a recent example, Hobbs & Shaw was the 9th film in the Fast & Furious franchise, but because it was a spin off the latest F&F film is still called F9 despite technically being the 10th.

@@iammask1073 He thought he was the one to press the button on The Moment (an ultimate WMD) and destroyed Gallifrey and the Dalek fleets surrounding it. It turns out that's not quite true - but he may have been responsible for sequestering it away outside normal space and time. Most recently, The Master found Gallifrey-in-hiding first and slaughtered them all. So either he DIRECTLY killed them all, or created conditions that led to their total destruction. Either way, he's the one who stood in judgment of Time Lord society in the ending days of the Time War. He was ready to pull the trigger, and for good reason.

Actually it was the opposite for me, I heard them and thought "Oh wow he's going to be a childish doctor with cheesy lines, trying (and failing) to be HALF as intimidating as Tennant ever was, Tennant was a million times better than Matt

[@JessCaron]

***** Also I loved the extravagant way they welcomed Eleven! That scene was a whole big welcome from the universe/show writers, just like they did a big extravagant farewell to Ten!

[@shaunhumphreys6714]

​@@benosullivan3262 just to say that i am now an enormous fan of eleventh and tenth doctor, and also the twelfth doctor, his last episode was when i had to stop, as i can't stand chibnal's version, and all potential in having a female doctor was squandered. for a long time it was only the tenth doctor for me. but when i finally did watch all of the eleventh doctor after putting it off for years, i saw the eleventh was the best. the most genius., but also the most all round best performance. the tenth really had a miserable incarnation, with all the losses he had of people. but at same tithe tenth portrayed loneliness and loss the greatest, but the eleventh was the expression of the doctor becoming childish and pure adventurous to escape that bereavement loss of companions-especially rose.it was him moving on to. he gets a wife and a family in river,a my and rory. he is able to open his heart fully to amy, whereas the tenth doctor closed himself off after rose, and with martha all other companions he didnt open up to them. this is why he also became younger when changing to eleventh doctor. 'i've lived too long'-the tenth doctor said, when he goes to sacrifice himself to save wilfred-my top pick for best companion btw. i only wish we did not have to wait til tenth's last episode to have him in the tardis. Given the eleventh doctor's superior feats to the tenth, he has more badass moments, he plays each dangeous situation like a grand chess master, being half a dozen moves ahead of everyone else. and suddenly turning the tables on enemy very soon. there is a reason for each of incarnations choice of personality. to say tenth was best because he was darker doesn't hold. i thought that for ages, and saw glimpses of eleventh doctor and thought-this eleventh doctor guy is just like a child on acid talking three times as fast as david tennant while running around the tardis. i can't take him seriously. there isnt the gravity that the tenth doctor gave to his performance. but then you see him lose amy and rory, his lifelong relationship with amy, his ties with them, which are his literal family-his daughter and son in law, and river is his wife. this episode was unanimously voted the greatest opener ever of doctor who-that is the best post regeneration episode. thanks to eleventh doctor's acting and moffat being a superior writer to russel t davies. ive also seen matt smith in other stuff and he really can act-i mean he is able to take on completely different personas, even his very brief seen in terminator salvation-where he captures john connor and reprogrammes him into a terminator. he was so disturbing in that scene. david tennant cant do that. russel t davies does darkness better-as can be seen with his last two series of torchwood where it went really really dark to the extent i couldnt watch it anymore as they killed off all the main characters virtually. except the twelfth doctor's final two parter where bill gets turned into cyberman while trapped in time dilation orbiting a black hole. an episode very similar to when amy is stuck in an accelerated time frame at the now quarantined holiday spot, while doctor and co are in the slower lane. by the time rory gets to her, she is like in her forties, having been there for some twenty years or so, surviving. in this case bill has to wait years for the doctor to come to her, while for the doctor and co, only half an hour has passed max. being as doctor who had to remain a family show russel was restrained in how dark he could go, for sure he would have taken tenth doctor to darker places, as he was going at the end of his life. the tenth doctor become time lord victorious was my favourite period of tenth doctor. contrary to most people i've realised david tennant is not a good actor. watch his most recent stuff-all of it, it's terrible. he has a series where he plays a husband and father to an autistic child, and he just keeps the scottish actor and the same beard he has in normal life,and acts as himself. the only decent thing tennant did was doctor who, and yes he was MADE for the role. he does the doctor brilliantly, in part i think because they force him to ditch the scottish accent and beard, so he actually has to act out a different character other than himself. but if tennant had had moffat writing his part, the tenth doctor would have been more genius. tenth doctor was during martha's reign as companion constantly being beaten and relying on martha to save him. martha had a horrible time as companion, no wonder she left him. and the tenth doctor's attempts at humour dont age well-they come off as very chessy and cringeworthy-like dad humour. whereas the eleventh doctor is genuinely hilarious. the eleventh doctor plays each danger situation like a game of chess, you think hes beaten half way through but hes been making the enemy think that, then pulls out an ingenius ruse, or lure. the tenth doctor did not have this cunning to him. he usually was beaten until the final moments, then pulls off a last minute rescue. that is, the tenth doctor is normally not in control of the dangerous situations he lands into during the episode. whereas the eleventh doctor is more like losing, winning, then a loss, then a win, then a loss, then win win win. eleventh is just so cunning and unpredictable. and i dont find tenth doctor more authoritative/badass than the eleventh. the only one point we see that is the offscreen imprisonment of the villains of human nature, trapping them in black hole event horizon, and what not, so giving them immortality in the worst possible way. the eleventh doctor was able to defend himself against attacks-take when river regenerates into her final incarnation and attacks the doctor-the doctor is four moves ahead-like a chess grandmasters, having replaced the knife she planned to use with a piece of fruit, then using the sonic screwdriver to sonic another weapon, making it fly out of her hands. he does that three times. he escapes his fixed point already witnessed death from the impossible astronaut through genius cunning, and his exploits leading up to and during big bang, the series five finale-here the doctor rises so high, he does so much time travel stuff, during the big bang double episode season five ending, very complicated for the doctor to carry out and follow as it's so intricate,-like a tapestry of spider webs and complex rope knots-using the handheld vortex manipulator,then using tardis and pandorica to reboot the universe in big bang two-again tenth doctor didnt have the brain power to do such a feat. surpassing the intelligence, cunning and foresight of tenth doctor,but also surpassing his courage. the eleventh doctor was not afraid even of fixed points in time. he also uses sonic vertically to deflect weapon blasts back at enemies-such as when fighting the silurians during rescue of amy and others from under the earth. the tenth doctor never did this, so he didnt think to use the sonic like that. it would seem the self righteousness morality of the tenth doctor once let go of, freed him in his next incarnation to be virtuoso as master of space and time. oh and he could rouse an army instantly of people who owed him a debt, in a good man goes to war. again tenth doctor wouldnt take such an action. his inflexible principles made him often impotent.oh and tenth doctor was defeated by weeping angels and sent back to the past. whereas eleventh doctor defeated them in both his encounters.=

You took its head, and hit it into the wall until it your fulfilled your orders. Now it lays there, beneath an impact crack you and it made, on a floor unseen, lying discarded it leaks, and you never remember. One day the stain stops, as there is nothing left to leak.

The curse prevents them from fighting the crime lord directly. And they must obey the crime lord's every command but they are free to hunt other villains to their hearts content. They are also bound to live as long as the crime boss still breathes. The curse is called "Demon's Run". And this hero has been trying to indirectly assemble a force to vanquish the crime boss.

Matt has acknowledged the small amount of backlash (of course, every new Doctor has received some backlash of some sort) his casting got. I wonder what he feels about the fact that he has become just as adored and beloved as every other Doctor before him after what had to have been something of a rough transition, following the wildly popular David Tennant and coming on as a new Doctor with a brand new Companion as well (something that hasn't happened since the show came back).

[@julieeverett7442]

Peter Davison had the same problem back in the day, he was the youngest doctor ever cast at the time 29, following in the footsteps of the legend that was tom Baker, it took a while to get used to him. Matt had to follow after David Tennent that many consider the best doctor of the modern era, but Matt proved his chops. And while hes not a favourite, I enjoy his performance.

It reminds me of a fanfic I read where this crime boss is talking about the different kinds of power that exist. From the power of money, being able to buy and sell what you want, to the power of favors owed from those themselves in power, then he talked about the power of reputation. When you are presumed to be powerful just because its you. Your name is enough for people to fear you. You dont have to pull out a gun, or threaten to take everything from them. You odnt have to display your army of goons. All you have to do is show up, and they fear you. Your name has been around long enough, proven itself often enough, that you no longer have to prove anything. To borrow from this video, when you see this person or group, "Basically, run" Honestly its something you see every day. A teacher doesnt have to be strong enough to cow their class, they are the teacher, so you obey. The title of teacher is enough to command respect and obedience. Your boss may be a simpering toad, but because they are "The Boss" you obey. You might quibble with that a bit but its basically the sort of thing I meant.

The expression "The quiet ones are the most dangerous/scary" exists for a reason. An angry man, a wrathful man will tear at the walls, will scream and vent his rage at every turn. he may be erratic but their minions will know to be afraid all the time. They have embraced their rage and live with it. The quiet ones on the other hand are the ones that restrain it, bottle it, do everything in their power to make sure it never sees the light of day. The ones that bottle up that rage, that hatred, their desire to lash out and hurt and scream and show the world their rage are the most terrifying because once they do, they have never learned to control it, they have never lashed out the way a more volatile man has. A violent man may be scary but he has more control over himself once the first outburst is over. Those who never lash out, who never vent their rage explode in one massive outburst. These are the ones that finally say "Enough is enough" and commit violent sprees, They are the Columbine shooters of the world, they are the Oklahoma City Bombers of the world. The ones who bottled it up and let loose screaming in the most furious fits are the most terrifying because they'd held back decades of rage and pin-point focused it on one target.

when the doctor tells you to run, it's not a threat... it's a kindness

[@scribblerstudios9895]

"He wasn't hiding from us. He was being kind" every doctor I've watched has had a moment where that is the case. Even he isn't fully aware of what he may do when his kindness, near limitless it may seem, is expended. And that is terrifying

[@tubeman123100]

Matt Smith has more charisma than Peter Capaldi. I also think Smith's anger felt more real because his Doctor was a friendly sort of guy. When Smith's Doctor got angry he was really 'don't mess with me' angry! I think Matt Smith was the all-time best Doctor but it's all just personal opinion - all the actors were great in the role.

11:38 This is why Matt Smith, imho, was one of, if not THE best Doctor. He was fun loving, quirky, all the things a Doctor should be, but when he taps into the Doctor's pain, anger, sadness, and pure, utter, endless rage at unfairness the universe, he's the only Doctor I've actually felt let that fully show. He talks to the Colonel as the Doctor, but he speaks to her as the War Doctor. And that slow head turn, the lighting showing the absolute FURY in his eyes.... perfect cinematography on top of a masterclass of character acting...

[@ImSimmin]

"Demons run when a good man goes to war." "Demon's Run, when a Good Man goes to war." That line gives me chills whenever I hear it, because of the two meanings.

[@Croftice1]

It has only one meaning: "Demons run", which the hideout "Demon's Run" took from that poem, exactly as Dorium explained to them. There's no other meaning. "Demon's Run (as in the hideout's name) when a good man goes to war" is basically meaningless. It's missing an essential part, a werb (I think). A better meaning would be (and some translations do include that) "Demon's Run FALLS when a good man goes to war". Without the word FALLS, it looses the proper meaning, so it's in fact the first and only proper meaning "Demons run when a good man goes to war". That's the only meaning without changing the poem by adding other words to it. Like I mentioned, some translation do fix that issue, in Czech dubbed version it's "Demon's Run falls when a good man goes to war" ("Skrýš Démonů PADNE, když dobrý muž jde do války").

[@ImSimmin]

@@Croftice1 this is a 10 year old comment but the 2 meanings are "demons run (the location) is when a good man goes to war" which is the literal version. and the second being demons (meaning bad people) run (like the verb to run away) when a good man goes to war. Which means that bad people know they are screwed when things get so bad that a good man is forced to go to war.

[@polaris20]

The amazing thing about the series (the new one, anyway) is that just when you find yourself really missing the previous Doctor, the new one knocks it out of the park in the first episode.
