  1. The Pandorica Opens/The Big Bang - You can't fault Moffat for his ambition. But I agree he didn't make the whole story work. This is one of Smith's finest performances. Gillan and Darvill have some great moments between them. The production is fantastic, it almost has a cinematic feel to it. I love the cliffhanger. But it's the second episode where it starts to go wrong. I am not convinced that the lighter tone works when compared to the first episode. The solution is far too convenient. It's as though Moffat didn't really know where to take his conclusion. Overall 7/10. Moffat's first series as showrunner does give a good indication of his whole tenure. Sometimes complex but often imaginative. And arguably very fan centered. Smith does a good job as The Doctor. But for me his first series was his best.

  2. The Pandorica Opens/The Big Bang- This is the first time that Moffat crafted a storyline that was too big for its own good in my opinion. The Pandorica Opens is a good episode, but The Big Bang is very messy. The leads are excellent, and Alex Kingston is still very good as River. The Pandorica Opens is a lot of fun, and is excellently paced. The cliffhanger is brilliant. If I was just ranking that episode I'd give it around an 8/10, because supporting characters aren't that interesting, and I'm not a fan of the storyline regarding Rory being an Auton. My big issues with this story come from The Big Bang. To be fair to Steven Moffat, there was probably no way of neatly tying up a story arc with a scope as large as this one, but The Big Bang does suffer due to this. The story is far too complex, and the ending is essentially just pressing a reset button, causing everything to return to normal. The script is messy and all over the place, as is the plot. I also found it to be poorly paced due to the extended run time. Overall- 6/10. Overall rating for Series 5- 7/10. Moffat started strong. Matt Smith is great throughout this series, as are Gillan and Darvill. The whole series looks and sounds more impressive than the Davies era did in my opinion. The Davies era was charmingly small scale for the most part, but this series was much grander in terms of scale. This is an interesting series, because the first third and the last third of this series consists of strong stories, but it really sags around the middle thanks to stories like The Vampires Of Venice and the Silurian two-parter. This is the first time that Moffat bit off more than he could chew, and although the time crack arc was well used during the series, the finale was far too rushed and messy and made the whole arc unsatisfying as a result, because Moffat's ideas are sometimes too grand there's just no way he could have resolved it satisfyingly.

  4. I'm always going for a 60x91.5 cm poster, it's the same size as a regular film poster. I love the design that you're thinking of but I don't know if gold is gonna be the best choice for the lighter parts.

  5. I love the Del Toro Hellboy movies, so I was excited to see what else could be done with the character and story, but this one doesn't hold a candle to the previous films. David Harbour was an excellent choice for Hellboy, and he is easily the best part of the film. The cast is excellent, but the material they were given isn't worthy of their talents. I agree that the writing was poor, and the over reliance on violence just didn't work. There were many references to the Hellboy comics which I enjoyed. I have no problem with violence in film so long as it is there for a purpose, but it feels like this film just threw stuff at the screen and hoped that it would improver the overall film, but it actually ended up dragging it down further in my opinion. The effects in general were pretty bad, which is unfortunate. If a sequel s made, I would see it to see more of David Harbour as Hellboy, but other than for him I wouldn't be at all excited for it. Overall- 3/10.

  6. So going off the Doctor Who topic briefly. What did you think of Hellboy? Admit I didn't think it was a patch on the original. A stellar cast did their best but the writing was weak and there was an over-reliance on fake blood and gore. If they decide to make a sequel (which is possible given the end) I hope it's an improvement otherwise I probably won't bother to see it. 5/10

  7. I don't mind what colour the sigs are so long as they are visible, so I'll be fine with using multiple colours on it.

  8. It's got a lot of space for signing if you have them sign over the tardis as well, but you might have to use both colours, you need a dark one for the left and bottom but a lighter colour for the top right I think.

  11. I'll put some up for you https://society6.com/product/tardis-abstract-time-space-travel-doctor-who_print?sku=s6-9863486p4a1v2 https://society6.com/product/doctor-who-tardis-lfj_print?sku=s6-8000017p4a1v2 Now, first of all Society6 is expensive, but the print quality and the card stock it comes on is absolutely superb, the best I've ever seen for posters and I can't recommend them enough if you find something you like, so whilst it's not cheap in comparison to a £5 poster, if you take care of it you won't find prettier in my opinion. Secondly, for demonstration purposes, the attached links are good examples. You have a strong background colour that will allow for most pen colours to be nice and striking and there's plenty of room for loads of auto's.

  12. It worked. I'm thinking if the signatures are in black or gold they should be fine on that?

  13. If you have any in mind, you can post them and we can give opinions. You also have to factor in the colours in the poster and how it will affect what pen colours you can use - last thing you want is a poster the auto's won't stand out on.

  14. It really depends on the design, any size you choose, some will have loads of room for signing, others won't because to the picture/writing. But ideally, you want bigger than A3 if you want to get a lot of auto's on a poster.

  18. Hey guys. Thought I'd be bold and do two cosplays this year. On the Friday, I'll be Darth Vader And on the Saturday, I'll be Ace Ventura Though possibly with a better wig!

  19. Haven't decided yet, but I do try to make it an annual thing. If I'm brave enough and with enough encouragement, I might go as Dr. Frank 'N' Furter from The Rocky Horror Picture Show

  20. Not 100% sure if I'm actually going to do it yet, but I'm currently pricing up and sourcing an Ace Ventura cosplay
