Wow! That was something!
Plot things I loved:
+ ROBOT FOREST OMG THAT IS SO AWESOME.
+ The whole concept of Amy turning into an angel and having to shut her eyes and walk through a forest and the GENERAL TERRIFYINGNESS.
+ The fact that this actually was the Crash of the Byzantium as per Silence in the Library. (Yes, I'm slow.)
+ The cracks in time theme being noticed and developed this early on.
And some other stuff, probably, but moving on!
RIVER SONG OMG
+ She is so completely awesome and hot and mysterious and eeeee I love her.
+ Given that it's been really obviously hinted that at some point she kills the Doctor, and given that I'm sure most people are assuming it's for a Good Reason of some kind, I am very much hoping that it is more complicated than that. Or that, if it isn't, that's not really the point. But OOOH. How exciting.
+ In the Confidential, Moffat talked about how we're going to see how the whole story plays out. a;lskdjas \o/ I am hoping that means not just this season! Recurring characters ftw, especially River-shaped ones.
AMY POND OMG
+ Amyyyyy! I am glad River was around to provide cuddles and arm-stroking.
+ She is so smart and intuitive and great, and keeps asking questions and not letting the Doctor bullshit her. <3
+ She's a time traveller now! Time travellers are special! Squee!
THAT END SCENE OMG
+ Rationally, I am worried about how this will pan out, for Amy's character arc. Worried, but not yet despondent. Do it right, Moffat!
+ I'm glad it's not being played as total unrequited tragic love omg. I also completely and totally buy that Amy would have the hots for the Doctor, especially given the second two-year gap in The Eleventh Hour. We know she's impulsive, we know she has her doubts about getting married, we know she's just been through something really horrendous, etc.
+ All of which I say because I can see the wank forming right now, to which my cultivated and intellectual response will be 'lol shut up, Amy Pond > you'.
+ All the above aside, my lizard brain demands HOT ELEVEN/AMY/RIVER OT3 FIC RIGHT NOW. So someone should get on that for me.
