Episode 12 isn't on your patreon yet bro,when will it be available? Cant wait to see it man
This is still one of my top 5 all time favourite episodes. I watch it every year with my mom on christmas.
Time of the Doctor (my favourite) is on New year´s eve.....
@@chanceneck8072 Same here. I love that, within the space of a minute, The Doctor - from 16:28 - first; quotes Muriel Rukeyser and then; does a quick Carl Sagan bit and moves swiftly and effortlessly to Lewis Carroll. What wonderful juxtaposition.
Where is episode 7 gone if season 5
A question for you is how do rockets burn in space without any air ?:-)
There's a theory saying Clara's mother died in the episode 'Rose' due to the date mentioned on her grave.
Luke Ayres I think that was intended by Moffat as a throwback to the Davies era.
@@the-youtube-enjoyer It would've taken 20 days to edit the ep
The events of Rose never happened at this point due to the reset of the universe
@@TeamTheme I'm not sure that makes sense as that is how Rose became the doctors companion and after big bang 2 in let's kill hitler the dr is in the tardis and the user interface (I think it's called) cycles through his (modern era) companions including rose, I don't think big bang 2 changed anything other than making Rory human and bringing back Amy's parents and the doctor and the only person capable of makes those changes was Amy due to being exposed to the cracks in the wall
@@TeamThemeIt isn’t that the events didn’t happen, its that the people of Earth no longer remember them.
This was his first big speech since the passing of Amy and Rory. All the sadness left bottled up, you could see that it hurt for him to talk about it. Absolutely beautiful.
All of the hurt and regret that the Doctor has had since the beginning of New Who is enough that there is probably an amount of relief to it being consumed.
One of the greatest displays of acting from Matt Smith's run of DW, that speech is truly a Shakespearean performance!
@Benjamin Davis I wouldn't describe that as Shakespearean tbh. It's an awesome speech, but Shakespeare has a certain feel and rythm to the words, and this speech has that down.
Matt Smith's speech in this episode might be my favorite of his run as the Doctor...maybe second only to his last speech. He gets me sobbing.
This definitely would be great music for a regeneration though...
Yeah but they wont use it. Never in thousands of years. 🤵🔥👨🔧
Just wait for it, lmao
Lewis Heald lmao, I knew it XD
@Benjamin Davis no shit
Jenna's not in Winter Soldier. She was Bucky's date to the expo in First Avenger.
First time I’ve seen a reaction of this episode where they thought he was regenerating😂. Great reaction though !
Tbf, I love his reactions because they're always based off something he's read into or foreshadowed, etc. They aren't baseless or random like many other reaction channels out there, which makes it pretty engaging to watch because it's like seeing the episode through an entirely different "what if" lens, even if the outcome of the episode remains the same.
I never noticed how much that did look like regeneration energy until now.
Matt Smith delivers some great speeches and monologues. The Angels Take Manhattan when trying to convince Amy to stay...this one....and a few more you'll run into in future episodes. He gets saddled with the "goofy" doctor label and Tennant gets a lot more love as the dramatic ace. But Smith really kills so many scenes in that mode.
Well, that one in Pandorica Opens, wen he said something like "... Do something intelligent, and let others try first..." is just perfect! And then he can go out with a "Who da man??!!"...
I love how you thought the speech was his regeneration, but for his actual regeneration it uses the exact same music. Screw “put me in the writers room”, it’s “put me in the composing studio” 😂😂😂
I was just thinking a few hours ago- "Man, failwhale better start pumping out some who reactions if we're gonna get to Christmas by Christmas..." These never disappoint!
LOVE YOU
23:50 I spy with my little eye, a FaileWhale Tear! That's how you know this episode was good!
When little Clara runs up, look at her sweater.
It's showing two hearts.
8:02 Forget being afraid of having to remember the whole song; the way they say "where are youuuu", is enough reason for wanting to hide! I love your genuine reactions, throughout the episode, as always. Thank you!
"is there a reason why they could not use the TARDIS?" good point well made, this will be back
Easily 11’s best speech
yup up there forsure.
Definitely
12's response: "You call this a speech? This silly little thing?" etc.
Yes
Agreed
My favorite expression of this doctor is when he gives that look of I mean business...grinds his jaw to the left and right and adjusts his bow tie. Oh shit. It's about to go down.
The Doctor's speech is EPIC
Such a good episode, I actually love 11 and Clara relationship
9:38 "aww thats really sweet...... But shes dead."😂😂😂
I have The Long Song as my alarm tone on my phone. The Queen of Years sings at me to please wake up
Ah The rings of Akhaten, brilliant episode. The speech, the story, everything had me utterly shook! I genuinely thought he was going to regenerate i was in shock
When he's going "She's in the MCU" and I'm like ooo he's gonna get it by himself..."The Winter Soldier"...he was so close. She's Bucky's date to the "Modern Marvels of Tomorrow" since show where Howard Stark shows off the flying car that doesn't work in Captain America The First Avenger
I was looking for this comment. lol
I love all of Matt Smith speeches as the doctor, they all give me the chills.
I kinda wish that they had ended the episode with the Doctor's speech. I feel like the "actually the leaf saved us all" angle kinda took away from it.
I've sometimes thought so, too, but on reflection perhaps doing it this way round increased the tension. The leaf was "the straw that broke the camel's back", but would only work _after_ the Doctor had softened up the enemy. That softening up was crucial, because without it Clara's leaf wouldn't have worked on its own. It was the Doctor and Clara's teamwork that saved the day, if you like, not just the leaf.
Vitor Vidolin it does make sense tho because the doctors experiences are finite, whereas the leaf represents infinite possibilities and so therefore is more powerful as there were no limits on the stories and value and power it could absorb from it
@@obiwankenobi687 Tho that kinda feels like a cop-out. I would prefer the whole "straw that broke the camel's back" explanation more.
In the context of this episode alone.. yes, it does seem stupid. It SEEMS like Clara's shoehorned into it. The Doctor's very epic and brilliant speech would be a more poetic climax/resolution. But a few things to consider:
--The point of the episode is that the Doctor = the sun god. The Doctor is "grandfather" (Susan's grandfather, and because he is old and ancient). The Doctor is also a parasite. He feeds off of the experiences of his companions (like how he told Amy that he keeps companions around for their experiences, because he himself can't see the beauty in the universe as easily anymore). He also often gets his companions hurt, scarred, or killed. He feeds on their lives just as the old god does. Clara even has to give up her mother's ring and the leaf, while the Doctor pretends like he doesn't have Amy's glasses (I don't think that the Doctor is an evil parasite, but that is the allegory).
--The leaf is more powerful than the Doctor's memories. Why? Because the leaf caused Clara's birth, and Clara was split across the Doctor's timeline. Thus her existence is the Doctor's existence several times over. Again, this doesn't work in the context of the episode, but once you find out why Clara is "the impossible girl," you come to realize that it really is the most important leaf in human history (because without Clara, the Doctor dies, and without the Doctor, humanity dies).
Except it literally is the most important leaf in human history, as without it you wouldn't have Clara who would go on to do all the things later on in The Name of the Doctor and The Day of the Doctor.
Now got to spend the rest of the day with this music stuck in my head!! But what music to have stuck! So much love for this episode! Great reaction!
This is a really underrated episode and one of Matt's best speeches!
“Is it a dying sun, did he pull a Rose?”
Bruhhhh
The Doctor: “It’s a dying sun.”
*failwhale looks at camera* 😏
: Damn that episode... On of the best Doctor's moments. That speech, the song in the background and Smith's tears... That whole scene is ICONIC and again, never fail to make me tear up
so much shit talked on this episode... i honestly think it is amazing and shows clara and the doctor’s personality/nature brilliantly!
and the music is just aaahhh
Dude this is my fave 11 EP. It's glorious. It's art. colours r gorgeous, acting is ace, the speech id staggering. I adore this ep
The eiaode is amazing, but I like to pretend it was resolved after the doctor's speech... Like, I get what they where going for, but for such an epic scene with the doctor it was unnecessary and kinda forced to push Clara in to take over the scene.
Matthew Bibby totally agree with you; i love that Clara has a big presence, and i think it really helped give her character a personality, but it should never compromise the doctor. In most recent years, the companions have had so much influence on the outcome of a story, and whilst they have always been a key part to who the doctor is, i think he/she should be allowed to shine so much more - this includes the excessive use of the sonic with Jodie, it completely defeats the sense that the doctor is the main source of knowledge
@@samkeir9212 I know this is a super late response, but I just had a thought - I agree it seems quite anticlimatic how the Doctor gives all his memories then Clara is the one who takes care of things, but if you think about it, it's only hinting at who she is. "I was born to save the Doctor". She's filling her role, the role only she can play, as the impossible girl. I think it works in that frame of mind.
As well, I know Clara presents the leaf as infinite because of memories never lived, and so people argue, well, anyone could have given anything from someone who died. But I think it's more the point that she 'flew into this world on a leaf', so to speak... the leaf is her. And she's essentially infinite, before the events of 'the name of the doctor' conclude. She's thrown herself into the Doctor's timeline. If this leaf is Clara, then of course the sun can't take it. That's the way I justify the episode.
Honestly, if that speech was Matt Smith's last scene as the Doctor I wouldn't have minded, because it was damn good enough to be.
Fun fact, when they performed the Long Song live, that little girl was replaced by Shireen Baratheon
"I need to start paying attention to leaves more, cause apps ain't working". Honestly, so accurate. :p
Time to cry at the speech again. Every single time I see the speech I cry
When I read regenerating in the title I thought you skiped a few episodes and posted your reaction to "Time of The Doctor" so I checked the thumbnail and luckily we are not there quite yet. Im not ready to say bye to 11 but excited to see 12 again. My 2 favourite doctors.
This speech makes me shiver all over again!
This is one of my favorite 11th Doctor speeches!
Absolutely no-one can monologue like Matt Smith.
The speech gets me every freaking time. It's beautiful.
One of the best episodes ever of all time and space.
Been binge watching the entire series love your vids
Btw been subbed since about 15k subs and I thought your channel had more subs because you are deserving of it.
THANK YOU SO MUCH I LOVE YOU
The most lowkey chilled out episode of who imo always loved it
The kid in this ep is one of the leads the upcoming Locke And Key show!
The song and performance at the end of this ep was so damn good.
Juliette Reacts yeh she’s one of my oldest friends and such an incredible actress!
I love this episode, and while I always felt the "Clara kills it with the leaf" ending seemed a bit weak, I understand that without that leaf, the doctor wouldn't be here, so it does make sense in the end.
The Rings Of Ahkaten was my first episode and I thank god I saw this episode in tv
One of my favourite Speeches in New Who
The music in this episode is epic! And the theme plays as 11 regenerates.
I can’t even imagine not knowing when the Doctor is going to regenerate. With all the news and reports about when characters are leaving or joining the show, I’d have to avoid the internet at least a year before regeneration to miss it.
Would it even be possible to keep a secret like that? Throw a surprise regeneration, not just a Tennant fake out, a proper regeneration without anyone knowing?
This episode was so sweet and well done, I would have been completely fulfilled if this was the regeneration episode of 11
Oh, he’s not dying, he’s certainly not dying, he’s gonna have much greater ending
The song in this always got to me idk why
Who else thought he was regenerating when moved his arms in that position
What a beautiful episode and soundtrack. The Long Song has been on my fav playlist since the episode first aired.
One of my fav episodes. Two great speeches, great introduction for Clara’s first trip.. the music.. it’s a perfect one
the doctor could have payed for the motorcycle with Amy s Glasses.
Awesome reaction bro
This was the episode that truly made 11 a awesome brilliant doctor.
This episode and this theme alone make me tear up whenever I hear it. I'm glad it got recycled at the end of this season. Such a beautiful score.
"I've walked in universes where the laws of physics were devised by the mind of a madman!"
I guess you could link this to the 4th Doctor & E-space but I like to think it's also applies to 8 & the anti-matter universe.
Also I love how this ending music is 11's regeneration theme.
Gotta say these reactions have been great to get through this year. Been absolutely racing through them.
Relentlessly crying every time I hear the ring of akhaten speech, and the 4 and a half billion years scenes
Clara:
Merry:
God of Ahkaten:
11th Doctor: ThIs DoOr iS InSaNeLy HeAvY
Definitely one of my favorites. The speech at the end blows me away every time.
This speech and 12’s speech in the zygon episode are my two favorites (:
It's funny because, I watch a lot of DW reactioners, and every time, the closer we get to the Time of the Doctor, the more anxious I become, although I've seen what happens a thousand times already
I really love this song in the episode. Gives me goosebumps all the time!
A lot of people complain about the leaf defeating the God in this episode, but I think it makes sense when you consider that the Universe literally went out of its way to have that leaf hit Clara's father, just so that he could meet her mother and that Clara herself could be born. It's not just the symbolic idea of the leaf representing infinity, it's the Universe bending itself to create Clara.
Thank you for your reaction to the speech. I've seen lots of reactions to this episode and I never really feel anyone connects on the emotional level I did. I go back and watch that scene all the time because it is so powerful.
love the reactions man
thank you fam! Appreciate you
The amount of times you call things and get them right is getting disturbing 😂😂😂😂 I love it
Why does it rain indoors every time I watch this episode?
This cemented for me how the rapport between 11 and Clara would work and it is powerful. Love this duo so much..
finally early enough to comment! love these reactions man, highlights of my day
death, thank you so much fam I seriosuly appreciate you and the support
22:52 hot take but im pretty sure hes referring to the celestial toymakers universe in the first doctors run
Glad I’m not the only one who thinks The Doctor and Clara’s relationship starts on kind of a creepy note.
The Ponderer not just kinda creepy but it’s also cute but in a creepy way
9:38 "that's really sweet 😌... but she's dead 🙂" big yikes💀😭🤣
That speech was so fking epic!
Did you realise this was where the *angrily adjusts bow tie* meme came from
Jenna Coleman was actually in Cpt America First Avenger :)
There's a special poster for this episode btw, kinda looks like an adventure movie from the 80's www.dailymars.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/DW-708-affiche.jpg
Remember that the writing from S7 onwards gets worse under Moffat due to him writing Sherlock, the day of the Doctor and Tin Tin. Some episodes weren’t finished on time by fill-in authors but Moffat-The-Prophet put his name on the unfinished yet released episodes.
People always talk about “the long song” when talking about the ost for this episode but for me the biggest banger in this episode is “the speeder”
Jeeeez, I see the goals on the whiteboard. Keep up the work bro
Cant wait for you to see the 12th doctor especially season 10 finally
Mohammed Alghimdi I was going to make a similar comment. Not many pick up on this
I couldn't help but laugh when u said "that's really sweet.... But she's dead" 😂
I know that speech that the doctor does off by heart.... Why do I know that but not stuff for exams 😅 this is the most beautiful 11 episode. I adore it. It's my favourite. That speech is ART
I’m not assuming the amount of confidence you have in yourself and your videos but honestly you should the amount of anticipation I have for your videos is unlike any others your an amazing up and coming creator and it’s nice to see not only a new reaction but your own take aways and predictions keep doing what your doing and I wish you all the best, not that you’ll need it. I plan to stick around for as long as you upload and can’t wait to see you watch the doctor to follow, by the way who’s your favourite doctor so far and for what reason?
Dude, i can't explain how i love so much watching you react to dw, it hit really deep and make me all emotional again, i can't say anything but thank you you're amazing!
Matt's performance in this episode 👌 unreal. It wouldve been an epic ending
I love this episode. Great reaction, great video.
Great review sir! Clara and the Doctor have great chemistry and Murray Gold's music is just great. Just my opinions. I look forward to more of yours!
How do you get the video footage from what your reacting to?
One of my favourite episodes from the Smith era (if not my favorite). The soundtrack is epic as well. Great reaction man 👍
I think the song went wrong because the guy in the temple hit a bum note there at the end 😂
Fantastic Episode! Epic speech!!!
People say that Smith is the king of speeches, but I think every doctor incarnations give the ultimate speeches
My only complaint about this episode is that the speech delivered by 11 was what the kids back in my day use to call a mic drop.....to have it be anything other than the end, seems a bit off and hurts the speech giving by Clara which was just as important.
The kids back in your day called a mic drop? Are you a time traveller from 2050, I thought mic drop was a modern thing. I'm joking, but I think the speech by the Doctor was amazing both well written and performed.
I don't like that he does that speech, he's so hurt and vulnerable and soft and then it's all over a god damn leaf... I'm like wow rlly
The leaf was just the final push.
It's weird to try and put this into words, but I really appreciate you crying to this episodes, and any others. It just really shows the pure emotion you're getting from watching.
Omfg didn’t expect this omg!!!!
finally we are in my favourite episode in the 11th doctor era, lets goooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The pain of the Doctor
Fires of Pompeii...yea keep that episode in your brain. Also, failwhale34 never ceases to fail in a great reaction!
