where'd you go doctor?

before i get onto my internet hassle's trying to catch up on missed ep's of series 5, last night's episode, which i stayed up until 12am watching on account of iview reloading if you leave it to buffer for too long, was well scary.
they're going to dissect you amy pond... there will only be a dozen of them... or maybe a whole civilisation living under the earth... roll credits.
WHAT!!!!!
to be continued at a moment like that, with the surilian's planning a mass exodus of human life on earth. btw, what is with their blatant racism... we, the so called apes, did not force them under the ground, they went there on their own so don't be angry at us we could have lived in harmony, it only took us 2000 years of "civilisation" but we learned to accept people of all skin colour's, why not add green and scaly to the mix too... and stop calling us apes, lizards. damn i hate the surilian's. nice twist though. dalek's and now surilian's, i wasn't expecting so many classic monsters to come back so soon in the season. next thing you know the cybermen will show up and the real nostalgia party will begin. and i don't mean scary as in the surilian's are particularly nasty, i think the writer's outdid themselves scare wise with the weeping angel's, those things were fucked and i just got a shiver down my spine thinking about them. goddamn those were two scary episodes. luckily for me, on account of work, i watched them in reverse, catching up with the first one on iview after already seeing the second. so the whole to be continued scariness was lost on me, thankfully. but i mean this episode was frightening on account of the to be continued and the fact that the surilian's are angry primitive lizards who want to dissect amy. LEAVE AMY POND ALONE! aka STEP AWAY FROM THE BABEN' FLAMIN' BEAUTY!
the doctor will save her though. but he won't be able to save them all. i know, because the bbc doctor who website doesn't have the disclaimer "if you are in another country don't look because future secrets get revealed on this site". and they know what country i'm in anyway because i was in the wrong region to catch up on past episodes on their website, so why didn't they block sensitive information? i'm very upset that i know who is going to die now, and that, indeed, someone is going to die because unlike a soap opera or a sitcom doctor who does not need to advertise the upcoming episode with crap like "who will survive?" [insert montage of major and minor characters pulling ambiguous facial expressions]. still though, damn you bbc.
today as it was monday and movies are $6 before 4pm at nova on monday's, we went to see animal kingdom and it was superb. i was clenching everything i could clench even some things i didn't know clenched throughout, pretty much the whole film. it twisted and turned and it didn't lose me for a second. i was a little put off by the leading performance by James Frecheville at first, but after a while i realised that, given his position in the world, was fairly justified in being so blaze. i think i'd be the same, maybe, given the circumstances. i'd perhaps be a little more open to seeking help from outsiders, but i don't want to go into it too much because i will spoil the film for those who haven't seen it and would want to.
i'd say it'd be level with i love you too on my list of favourite films for the year, but only because they're both so different and i couldn't possibly separate them fairly. that brings my total of australian films seen at the movies this year to 3 and shall soon be 4 as i plan to see love lust and lies sometime next week. or perhaps i will save it because miraculously a single man is still on at nova and i may go see it next monday.
anyway, this was going to be longer but i started looking for jobs and places to live in melbourne and now i am tired.
more on my struggles to watch doctor who online later.
ps, thinking of having a doctor who themed birthday party, no big deal, just the most awesome theme idea ever. :)
