I actually thought that the way the Doctor delt with the villain this episode harkened back to the Eccelston/Tennant days. He gave the character a choice, and then followed through on that choice. No bluffing. I still am having trouble getting attached to this new path. Maybe it's because I got so attached to David Tennant's Doctor, and the style that Russell Davies brought to the series, but as good a job as Matt Smith is doing, it's still just not as good as it once was. This episode was a bright spot for the new Doctor though, so I hope it keeps up.
The original Star Trek film was horrible. Truly a bad movie, and yet, The Wrath of Khan made people all but forget about Veger, and the slooooooooow pace of the original film. I think the same can be done with GL. It didn't live up to its potential, but it wasn't horrible, and with a solid sequel, it could be as awesome on screen as it is on the page.
As far as JL goes, I truly hope WB takes its time, plans things out well, and gives the movie world the heroes and stories that this pantheon of characters deserves, and not some rushed product that is quickly swept under the rug.
I want to hold out hope for this. I remember thinking the G.I. Joe: Renegades animation wasn't that great (too much like the old MIB cartoon) but it grew on me. With good scripts and good acting, I can see this being a "grow on you" kind of show too.
I really missed out on what this movie was about. According to the reviewer, John Carter TRANSFORMS into Mars.
You put Robot Chicken: Star Wars III under Classics? Awesome.
I still believe Kristen Bell would be awesome. She's obviously attractive enough, she's got a sharp wit, and she's proven that she can play the dectective/investigative reporter bit to a tee. And to sweeten the deal, she's a hell of an actress too.
Wasn't this the basic concept of Kevin Smith's initial Green Arrow storyline? He has no soul, so demons are trying to inhabit his body to escape hell.
It reminds me a lot of the "Library" episode from season 4 of Doctor Who.
Although it's not a theatrical movie, in the pilot for the new BSG, when Laura Rosilyn was seeing the doctor about her cancer, you can see a Firfly ship flying overhead. A nice little nod to a gone too soon show.

Freema Agyeman was in one of the last episodes of Season 2, when the Cybermen were taking on the Daleks. She was a tech (or some kind of office personnel) in the Torchwood Tower. When she came back as Martha in season 3, nobody said anything about it. Honestly, if they never touched on it for her run, it wouldn't be that big of a deal.
