chicafrom3So that was kind of awesome.
I love River. And Amy. And River/Amy fangirling over each other. "You're really good."
Prior to this episode I had been seeing Eleven/Amy's relationship as very grandfather/granddaughter-y and now they have been firmly slotted into big brother/little sister in my head. "Are you Mr. Grumpyface today?" <3
Disclaimer: I was one of those people who was not overly enthused about the Angels coming back, because I thought they were excellent one-episode villains and bringing them back would cheapen that. I was Very Very Wrong, omg. They were used fabulously.
Amy and her stone hand was very nightmare-fuel-y. Worse than that for me, though, was when she rubbed her eye and there was all the stone dust and OMGNO. I have major eye squick. I suspect I am either entirely the wrong audience for Moffat or exactly the right one. (The man likes playing on eye squick, that's all I'm saying.)
I would break my neck trying to wear River's shoes but I nevertheless want them. Thus is the curse of awesome costume departments.
Amy's enthusiasm over "you promised me a planet!" and "is that a planet out there?" was so adorable I have lost words for it. SOCUTE.
I hope the Doctor goes back to leaving the brakes on. It is a brilliant noise. (Matt impersonating the TARDIS landing noises = also brilliant.)
Confession time: Once it was established that the ~alien species whose name I can't remember well enough to try to spell~ had two heads I got grumpy that the prop department hadn't given the statuary two heads and was very much all "bad prop department" AND THEN IT TURNED OUT TO BE A MAJOR PLOT POINT. I apologize for doubting you, prop department.
I HATE CLIFFHANGERS but I love two-parters so idk, I guess that balances out. Is it time for next week's episode yet?

And wasn't it just HILARIOUS how the Doctor apologized to Amy, not because he was going to leave her, but because he was about to bite her!
I love this quirky little doctor and his spazziness.
And you can so kinda tell that this was the first episode they filmed...the Doctor's hair's all off. At least it was to me. Lol.

I love that. <3 "It's okay, I know you have to leave me, it's the right thing." "No, no, I'm not going to leave you." *bites* OH DOCTOR.

And mostly... OMG OMG OMG. THERE ARE NOT WORDS FOR HOW MUCH I LOVE THIS EPISODE. ...I kind of can't stop watching it. And I have squeefits whenever River and Amy are in the same room. ...and, okay, a lot of the time River's on screen in general.
And if I didn't love Amy already, that trapped inna box scene would have done it. COULD SHE BE MORE AWESOME? I DON'T THINK SO.
...I'm too lazy to make episode posts of my own, so I get all my squee out in the comments of yours. XD I hope you don't mind.

I am SO IN LOVE WITH AMY, I can't even. She's just so fabulous. ♥ And RIVER and RIVER AND AMY and OMG YAY. ...this episode fills me with a lot of glee.

Pssh, that's what's the comments of episode posts are for! :D
...I need a River icon. Or an Amy&River icon!

I just love this episode so damn much. I wasn't so sure about the return of the angels at first - I mean, I love them, but a couple days ago, I was going "How could they be that scary? As long as the Doctor doesn't use them in the past to sort out the problem, he can just go back and pick them up from wherever."
Buuut then things got worse, and I found myself wondering how in the world I could now look at Blink and go "Meh, that wasn't so bad..." Oh, Moffat. Please never stop being this awesome. Also, please keep throwing River at the TARDIS. ♥
...I need a River icon ASAP. Possibly a River/Amy icon, because DAMN, THEY ARE SO CUTE.
Also, heeere. There are still some things that bother me about it, but eventually I had to force myself to stop rerecording it before I went crazy. And I have a bit of a lisp and there's no way I could fix that. *Hides*

Also, heeere.
*flails* OMG SQUEE
I love it! You're a very expressive reader. And your Matt Smith impression is adorable. ♥
no subject
And thank you! I'm very glad it made you squee. ^^ And the actual dialogue was the part I was most nervous about... and also the only part I didn't have to rerecord even once. GO FIGURE.

...I keep listening to it on repeat. It makes me really happy, omg. <3

I have yet to see the original Angels or River eps, but i thought BOTH were fabulous! Also fabulous was Amy/River and Amy not being jealous of River's super-intimate future with the Doctor - as I imagine Rose would have been (granted, I've only seen up to 2x5, but I stick to what I said).
And omg when Amy's hand turned to stone and the whole back and forth with the Doctor about him leaving/not leaving her... Just, GAH. Karen & Matt are just making me love this duo SO HARD.
I think I'm gonna have to squee! about this ep in a post in my own journal, rather than writing novellas in other ppls comments sections lol
no subject
YOU SHOULD. ...especially the original Angels episode.
as I imagine Rose would have been (granted, I've only seen up to 2x5, but I stick to what I said).
I have seen all of Rose's episodes and I agree with you.
I love that Amy just teases him about their relationship and then bonds with River over how awesome they both are. <3
Karen and Matt are just TOO FAB for words, omg, I love them. <3 <3 <3
