I'm The Doctor.

Advantages: Exciting for all ages!
Disadvantages: None!

Doctor Who – Series One Who? If you haven’t heard of doctor who then I have no idea where you’ve been! However this could be due to be obsession with the doctor. Doctor who is a British production which is broadcast on the BBC and has been since 1963 inconsistently. Sadly I wasn’t around when doctor who first came out and I started watching it when series 1 first came out. So after 16 whole years (apart from the one off movie) the ...
... The Doctor Doctor Who had been around for so long that this doctor would be the ninth one. Christopher Eccleston was the lucky actor who took up this role and for the entire series he played it wonderfully. His acting of the doctor was really good and this was the first time I met the legendary doctor and he definitely made an impression. The doctor is a fun and exciting individual who travels around in time and space. He is the last time ...

Review of Doctor Who - Series 1 - Complete (Box Set) (DVD)

Fantastically lags story wise

Advantages: Some good special effects and CGI
Disadvantages: Too slow, not enough of a story, lost interest before the end

...was one that featured a Fantastic 4 cartoon, so I was somewhat familiar with the characters and I do like a good fantasy type movie every now and then, so I thought I'd give this a watch. I'm glad I didn't purchase the DVD, it wouldn't have been worth it. - Main Credits (non-actors, which are mentioned further on in the review) - Source:- IMDB (see:-http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0120667/fullcredits) Director - Tim Story Written by - Mark Frost and ...

Review of Fantastic Four (DVD)

Doctor Who hits back with a bang!

Advantages: Great rebirth of the doctor
Disadvantages: None really

...consistently watched the revival of Doctor Who, first with Christopher Eccleston as the Doctor, then with David Tennant taking over the role. She tried to persuade me to watch them, but it is something that I had never really been fussed with. Growing up at my parents' house, I would occasionally watched a rerun of one of the older Doctor Whos, such as Patrick Troughton and Jon Pertwee, and I found them interesting, but I didn't really follow them ...
...bigger than a house! The Doctor is a Time Lord, and has taken many forms, and each time he disappears he reappears having regenerated in a different human form. This explains the numerous different actor who have played him. The show ran successfully until 1989, when viewing figures plummeted. There was a TV movie starring Paul McGann in 1996, which I vaguely remember, and then a 9 year gap before Russell T Davies revamped the doctor as Christopher ...

Review of Doctor Who - Series 1 Vol.1 (DVD)

Bad science and even worse plot

Advantages: Great effects
Disadvantages: No plot at all really, HUGE science goofs.

There is no real plot in this movie as such, a group of 5 people go into space, aquire powers and 4 of them use them for good while the 5th uses them for evil until the other 4 decide to stop him. I know its a really short summation but thats the ENTIRE film in just that sentance! None of the main characters are really given any kind of introduction. At least in Spiderman and X-Men there is some kind of character outlining. Their powers are acquired ...
...They get into space too easily, the mission isn't explained. Why Victor Doom is aboard, no reason given. This is an excuse to put Jessica Alba into a low cut top to show us her cleavage. The scenes in the mountains where the powers are first shown like Human Torch's flame on. Totally pointless and there for thrill value only. Why each member gets the particular power they do, they were all hit by the same rays but all get different powers? The "cloud" ...
