Is That It? Doctor Who Christmas Special (2023)

from Review It Yourself

"As a piece of entertainment it's just not good enough".Sean discusses the Doctor Who Christmas Special (2023). After deciding to give the special a chance, he was left feeling very underwhelmed. Discussion Points:-The waste of the goblins. -The poor pace of the show. -Sean compares this episode to Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (2005), Final Destination (2000) and Hugh Grant in the 1990's. -The small scale of the episode. -The cardinal sin of film/television is making something boring.-The squandering of interesting ideas. Raised Questions:-Why is RTD trying to emulate Moffat's writing?-What was the point in all the pointless time-jumps?-Remember engaging Doctor Who stories?-Why is this era tripping over itself to validate the Chibnall era?-Do they expect people to actually flock to this?Thanks for Listening!Trailer:FilmFloggers www.filmfloggers.comReview It Yourself now has a Patreon!Find us here:Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/review_it_yourself21Twitter: @YourselfReviewInstagram: reviewityourselfpodcast2021 Hosted on Acast.
