Sure, the Movie TARDIS control room was majorly different from the classic room, but I thought it looked cool. The Davies room? Ugh. I've never liked it. It never grew on me.<br /><br />I'd like to see something like this guy's:<br />http://www.interocitor-media.com/tardis/tardis2002/<br /><br />As for the Time Lords, I wouldn't mind seeing them brought back, maybe a little wiser after the war. But give them a good reason to be in hiding, leaving the Doctor convinced there were no others. Make a season arc about it, with maybe hints the season before. Don't just start off with the Time Lords suddenly back.ShadowWing Tronixhttp://bwmedia.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37940560.post-51411505256449289912009-10-23T18:15:54.733-03:002009-10-23T18:15:54.733-03:00"A new orchestral arrangement, sure, but plea..."A new orchestral arrangement, sure, but please let's not go back to synthesizers."<br /><br />I feel compelled to respectfully disagree with that. Less orchestra, more electronics; said electronics just need to be throbby, buzzy & dirty, as opposed to wimpy & weebly, like the late-Colin-Baker-to-McCoy versions. A real "old-school Radiophonics lab just recorded with modern equipment" sound would be ideal for me. Every run-of-the-mill SF show goes for the orchestral-pomp default, I'd like to see that stranglehold broken.Jack Norrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05347116217773724467noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37940560.post-31157148475969733342009-10-23T14:32:29.140-03:002009-10-23T14:32:29.140-03:00I'd rather see the Time Lords stay gone, hones...I'd rather see the Time Lords stay gone, honestly. (Ideally, my version of The End of Time would take us back to Utopia and, with the Paradox from S3 unravelled, the last humans become the new Lords of Time rather than the Toclifane. I'm not entirely unopposed to the New and Old being the same thing in an Oruborous-like manner, as in comment 3, but I think it would cheapen the entire current run if the actual Time Lords who were lost come back.)<br /><br />And If we don't see Ice Warriors on Mars, I don't think we'll see them soon...Jeff R.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37940560.post-62030114592906343102009-10-23T11:49:51.329-03:002009-10-23T11:49:51.329-03:00My guess is, Moffat is going to bring back the Tim...My guess is, Moffat is going to bring back the Time Lords -- but in their infancy. As in, the Doctor will somehow spark the creation of the Time Lords; Gallifrey will thrive but will not be "his" Gallifrey (which was zillions of years later, near its end). Of course the Doctor will need to leave Gallifrey alone lest he do a wibbly-wobbly thing; this keeps the Doctor as a loner, but instead of grieving for the past, he can take hope in the future.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37940560.post-17694257578958828052009-10-23T10:18:27.784-03:002009-10-23T10:18:27.784-03:00Not sure why, but I think this season is going to ...Not sure why, but I think this season is going to have the feel of the Peter Davison era.
