Spoilery thoughts on Doctor Who 5.04

I just watched the fourth episode of the fifth series and I have some thoughts.




Likes:

- The chemistry between Amy and the Doctor.
- The fact that the Doctor calls Amy "Pond".
- The army/church guys and the way they blend together - very today.
- "Angel Bob"
- A huge temple of Weeping Angels - that is creepy.
- The angel coming 'through' the screen and locking Amy in the room.
- Amy being connected to the angels.
- The fact that the Doctor seems to find River slightly annoying.
- The hints that River isn't so lovely and nice, but that she does something to piss the Doctor off later.


Dislikes:


- River Song is truly a doll Mary-Sue.
- No, Amy fan-girling her does not help.
- Amy, the Doctor, and River bringing up the "River is the Doctor's future wife" thing. I think they brought it up every ten minutes or so. I believe it was mentioned three or four times.
- River knows the Doctor's language and how to fly the TARDIS?! (Mary-Sue, Mary-Sue, Mary-Sue!)
- Alex Kingston was a bit wooden.



The story was awesomely creepy and I love it. My one compliant really is the River Song character. She's just the hugest Mary-Sue ever! I find her totally annoying.
