    For any of you who have not seen the movie, TURN BACK NOW! As River Song would say, SPOILERS!

    I saw it last night, and I'm a bit disappointed. I'm a big fan of the tv show, and so I see lots of contingency errors...
    For one: When all three doctors went back to push the red button? Wasn't the entire war timelocked? How did they even get back? They even acknowledged that fact in the movie, but went back anyways.
    Also, at the part where they freeze Gallifrey, where the hell did the other doctors come from? I understand the need to make it more dramatic, but that was total bull, honestly.
    And then even further, when all the doctors return to their own timeline, how do David Tennant and John Hunt both forget what happened?
    And what of the Zygons? Did the doctors just leave earth to their mercy? Sooner or later they would have figured out who was who, and then it would all be over.
    And this isn't really a plot point, but why did they bring back Rose if she wasn't going to even be Rose? She was a sentient bomb! In addition to a bad casting, I think having a device with a conscience powerful enough to instantly move John Hunt across space and time would have better uses than being a bomb? Technology that advanced could just Teleport the entire Dalek fleet into the sun. Instead, its purpose is to blow itself up.

    But I'm just focusing on the negatives. There were some good parts. Like when Matt Smith got sucked through time to David Tennant and then so did John Hunt and he asked for the doctor. That part was entertaining. And when the Tower of London was left unlocked right as they realized they could disintegrate the door. That was pretty funny. My favorite part of the movie was probably when John Hunt says "Great men are forged in fire. It is the privilege of the lesser man to light the flames." My new favorite quote.

    Well that's just what I thought of the movie. Maybe you guys thought differently? I also got a lot of laughs out of what it would be like if Shaq was the next doctor.

    My favorite part was when Tom Baker showed up.

    There was some explanation for how they got into the time war, but I can't remember what it was. I think it had something to do with the Timelord painting.

    Yeah I had a simliar reaction
    I didn't find as much stuff as you did, but there were still a couple things. I agree with the bad casting of Billie Piper. Rose was my favorite companion so it was a bit of a disappointment for me...
