I wonder what the Doctor saw in his room, and what he believes in so much ?

@id151039633:
He doesn't believe in anything like that, because they were there only because of Amy, and the contents of his room were revealed in the Doctor's Time series, but I won't spoiler, although I was spoilered about it myself :)

@-Alexey-: People who don't believe in anything were shown the exit as Rory, and the rooms were only for those who believe in something, because why would a being who feeds on people's faith need a person who doesn't believe in anything. #master explain

Oh, then I don't even know if the Doctor's turn didn't have time to reach him, or if his theory allowed him not to look for his faith, or if he basically copes in a different way... However, I myself have not yet seen the Doctor's Time, so I will postpone the reasoning until then :)

I do not believe. I can't believe it. I don't want to believe it. Well, it can't be that way. First of all, the girl-who-was-waiting couldn't just give up her faith in five seconds. Well, it's impossible T_T

about the angel... maybe he didn't meet the angel himself in his life, but only heard about them (which is most likely the case)? maybe there is something different in his presentation that we might not have noticed? maybe that's why the angel didn't become real)

I can't explain it, but I'm impressed that the Doctor broke up with the Ponds. At the same time, he parted without erasing his memory and throwing it into a parallel world. At least Rory deserved it. Each subsequent adventure tore the soul out of Rory, and in some places Amy got it. There is no point in continuing to torment them. Funny adventures with an admiring "Run, faster!" have long been gone, have you noticed?

@Lisapeta: I only watched the new school and it feels like with each new Doctor there is an escalation of drama, and then, when there is already a lot of drama, as if the Doctor is being updated and we perceive him emotionally differently. Although, in principle, it's too early to say that there is a pattern, the 9th was changed very quickly, but for now I see such a trend only from the 10th and 11th. Everything was very sad for the 10th, I already had some kind of overload emotionally, the 11th brought lightness, but I feel that I will cry over future series

Damn, I looked at Rita and kept wondering where I'd seen her. It turned out - in the TV series "One Night". And she was a terrific charmer there, too.

Ponds stand out ahead in my rating of satellites, Rory even beat Martha and the captain (well, he wasn't so much) a little ahead.
And such a proper, and most importantly timely farewell, and I do not know, such a touching one, and in general, whether it's Smith with his magic, or it's Karen, but these relations for me are the warmest, almost fraternal, well, there was no such thing with Rose, Donna, or Martha. These hugs, these kisses on the forehead, these intonations, and the Doctor is so protective of the couple. Although in general this season has both boring episodes and a line with River for my taste, but I will say that 11 looks wiser than its predecessors. And when he is angry, and when he is affectionate, I get goosebumps from what is scary and what is good, respectively.

@Mirari: it seems to me that for such stupid trolling, the possibility of commenting should be selected for each episode. It's not that you don't need to write about something that most will disagree with and there is a chance to run into a large number of disadvantages. But I need to write in a reasoned way, I don't like Rory "because of that" or I don't like Rory with his actions *so-and-so, so I was disappointed in him*. And you certainly don't need to write the same thing for every episode.

I kept waiting for Amy and Rory to have at least some emotions about the fact that their daughter was taken away from them. They stole their daughter's childhood, the opportunity to raise her, take care and cherish her. And they kind of don't care. In recent episodes, not a word about it at all. As well as some discussions about the fact that their daughter grew up with them as a friend

I have an assumption that she did not really grow up, but regenerated almost immediately into a more or less adult girl (who was in an astronaut costume), and then into a friend. Perhaps this explanation was left somewhere behind the scenes, but they apparently understood everything, because it was not for nothing that Amy asked to tell River to visit them more often. I.e. they have no way to return her as a baby, as I understood. But yes, of course, it is very strange that there is practically no mention of this in the last few episodes, there is a feeling that they are not very sorry that this happened.

Мне еще кажется, что Понды легко переживают отсутствие дочери потому что они родителями были полчаса. Эми всю беременность была сознанием с Рори и Доктором, потом родила и дочь унесли. Вернули ненадолго и снова отобрали. Она о ней знает как о факте, но всей материнской магии взяться просто неоткуда

@Chipolka: согласна, что не было толком времени на связь. Но Эми её же рожала и помнит все ощущения. Насколько помню, у женщин после родов идёт мощный выброс эндорфинов (я не эксперт, но вроде что-то такое слышала), и включается материнский инстинкт. Хотя, по сути, у неё дочь украли и она знает, что возможности вырастить её уже нет. Она знает свою дочь только как подругу детства (которую нам даже не показывали, ага), и как взрослую Ривер. Но все равно странно, что эмоций особо нет и не вспоминают особо. Такое ощущение, что зрители больше переживают, чем Эми с Рори 🙈

Все-таки Моффат по части ужастиков остальным сценаристам дает форы в 10 ходов. Умудрится серию, посвященную кошмарам, сделать совсем нестрашной... Печаль.

@vk625011: всеми силами стараюсь не читать Ваш комментарий сейчас, не знаю что там за спойлер, но зачем такие комментарии оставлять вообще? Было бы реально классно, если можно было бы хотя бы сворачивать спойлеры под кат. Но здесь такое опции нет, и многие могут прочитать быстро текст, успев увидеть ваш спойлер.

Наверное, меня заминусят, но рискнём
У меня не вызывает вообще никаких чувств Эми. Причём, мне нравилась маленькая Эми, но повзрослевшая... при этом, я хорошо отношусь к актрисе и мне нравится персонаж Рори, но сама Эми.. при том, сколько времени ей уделено кажется местами непродуманным персонажем

И, пожалуйста, не надо воспринимать мои слова как претензию или оскорбление - вообще ничего такого)

"это не настоящие плачущие ангелы" - парадокс, ведь они сами говорили что любое изображение плачущего ангела и есть плачущий ангел, и поэтому их даже не рисовали в книжке с описанием...
Теперь я пошла смотреть серию дальше

Я так понял, что в этом сезоне решили побить рекорд на всякие жутковатые и выносящие мозг эпизоды. Тишина, гангеры, те куклы в шкафу, а теперь ещё и этот эпизод. Сценаристы во все тяжкие пошли, не иначе :D

@Hunter_Number23: забавно, что Доктор нашёл в "свою комнату" в помещении под номером 11. Символично однако...

Полагаю, что там он увидел, что-то связанное с ТАРДИС, слишком уж отчётливо в этом моменте зазвучал Набат Обители, который выполняет роль тревоги у ТАРДИС при ЧС.

Название эпизода, кстати, не просто двойственное, а тройственное. Тут и Комплекс Бога самого Доктора, как говорит Рита; и Комплекс Бога самого существа ("Славьте Его"); и Комплекс Бога как тюрьма существа, которая проецирует и меняет внутри себя коридоры-лабиринт "гостиницы".
