[The Corparation]

Excuse me for a sec while I slip out to England and steal one of those things. They look awesome.

I'm not 100% sure I like them yet. I probably won't know for sure until the actual episode.

As of now they look pretty good. Better then the last version at any rate.

I still see too much of the last version in them to be happy.

The faces should be more human-shaped and they should be silver instead of gray.

Gaiman is writing new episodes?

The fanboy in me is incredibly pleased.

With Cybermen.

Mondas Cybermen.

Everyone should be happy about this. Even Johz.

I'd nerdgasm.

That would certainly help.

Too bad he'd probably be too busy.

I think they're pretty cool, but, to be honest, I liked the Cybusmen a lot.

They should be more silvery-ish, though.

The Cybusmen were the worst part of the revival. Barring Love and Monsters.

Watch when you next have the chance (it's two hours long, but broken up into four parts) and tell me "Rise of the Cybermen/The Age of Steel" should ever be mentioned in the same breath as it.

[Ende]

Love and Monsters.

Don't even mention that.

Please.

[Nationstatelandsville]

Love and Monsters.

Don't even mention that.

Please.

I will make a point to mention it every day until you watch Tomb.

Bookmarked.

Also, I can honestly say that I remember next to nothing about the-episode-that-shall-not--named. Hooray for repression!

It's one of the best in the show's history.

Troughton even wears a fur coat that makes him look like an elderly pimp, which is simultaneously hilarious and bad-ass.

I remember bits and pieces of it from when the ABC aired it in 2004/5, but I think I probably missed a couple of episodes.

It isn't even a very complex episode - but it's still a perfect example of why the serial format is superior.

Johz is never happy. However, I'll be mildly less grumpy. The chest-plates look a bit weird at the bottom, like the old Lego Knights, and there are more similarities to the new cybermen as opposed to the old cybermen, but...

It's Gaiman. How bad can it be?

You and Wikipedia lie.

You and Wikipedia lie.

How so?

[Nationstatelandsville]

I refuse to believe Gaiman churned out that.

No human is capable of it.

Point taken.

I finally got around to watching Attack of the Cybermen (as well as The Five Doctors and Resurrection of the Daleks, planning on watching Rememberance of the Daleks and The Curse of Fenric later) and it's actually pretty good. Colin is less annoying than I expected, though he does beat up an assassin, which was unsettling.

The Cryons are creepy as hell, and they're the good guys.

*adds to list*

As unsettling as watching Tom kill one?

Tom kill one what?

It was surprisingly graphic, actually, for the 80's - there's a scene towards the end that would make the CIA scream cruel and unusual punishment. The techno music will make you want to stab the composer in the face, though.
