time war all the way but mcganns television performance was 16 years ago and he probly doesent look the same but eccleson was in gi joe and he looks almost exactly the same so 9th doctor all the way not that i didnt have a man crush for david tennent but we saw most of his time and it wouldnt make sence to bring him back but at the same time a 9th doctor time war movie would only be insanely good for us die hard fans and probly wouldent bring in many new fans witch im sure is part of the plans so as much as i hate to say it i think a major motion picture is a bad idea the dalek movies of the 60s were just bad remakes of the fist two dalek stories and the 90s tv movie as much as i like the 8th doctors books and radio storys the movie wasnt very good and the whole half human thing was so absured that fans have to try to think of a way to play it off now im just rambling so to make every one happy just make a bbc mini series kind of like torchwood did give eccleson and russel t. davies an offer they cant refuse and lock steven moffet up in a towere somewere and get this thing going

I would LOVE to see a movie about the Time War and how the Doctor became the last of his kind. But mostly I would love to see David Tennant playing the role. I was quite taken with his character right away, from the moment he first spoke at the end of the 2005 season finale. I couldn’t get into Christopher Eccleson very well and I have to admit that although he may be a good actor, it wasn’t the role for him. And Matt Smith is doing a great job, but I’m just not feeling the same energy level or emotional range that Tennant had. He just seems perfect for the role and it’s hard (for me) to imagine someone else stepping in.

I love all the actors that portrayed the Doctors.Favorite is Tom Baker.But When it comes to a Major Motion Picture one actor comes to mind,Johnny Depp and one director that could pull it off big time would be Tim Burton.

Hey,
A time War movie
That sounds good to me I’ve wanted to watch something like that for years now if not longer.
Although I’m not sure how they’ll do that since they would need the 8th and 9th doctors back. If they used anyone different Doctor who fans would be really dissapointed and able to see the diffrence. I’ve only seen The last five seasons as I wasn’t born before the others were made.

I’d like to see David Tennant back as his my favourite doctor. Personally I’m not a big fan of Christopher Eccleson either, but I reckon it would make more sense to see him play a role in a Time war movie. I also have to agree with what Manic said about Matt Smith and Johnny Depp. (Jee Jhonny’s annoying)

Just a quick comment going back to the original post above.

The first doctor didn’t use the sonic screwdriver as it wasn’t invented yet. The second doctor was the one who first used it in season five’s ‘Fury From the Deep’ serial in 1968. Unfortunately, all six episodes of this serial are missing.

[...] These are great traits of any character that is looked up to as a good role model. Here is the link to the article where Ben goes into depth about each characteristic. link Picture from screenrant.com [...]

I think the whole thing would depend on the script to be honest. Tennant has pretty much done all he can with the role, since he is right in the middle, I didn't like Eccelston myself, but I understand people loved him, an Matt Smith is to fresh as the doctor, I don't think he has a strong enough character to support the big screen.

We will just have to wait and see I suppose. It could litterally be anyone, it is The Doctor after all.

(As long as it's not Johnny Depp, that guy pisses me off, and would make a horrible doctor)

[...] police box comes from a TV show, but I’ll remind you that there is also rumor of a feature length Doctor Who movie in the works, so let’s just say it counts. The Doctor is an alien being called a Time Lord [...]

Actually changed my mind, totally agree with your response an original doctor would be pretty good

They should cast an actor to portray The Doctor in a way that only his people saw. Then he should regenerate into a different form, starting a point in which the first episode of the VERY first season could pick up from. That would be great.

Hey IzzyD,

Thank you! Regarding the Children in Need special, I can understand your skepticism. For some reason (or rather a collective of little reasons), I believe it this time.

(1) Russell T. Davies likes big endings, and a special featuring all 11 Doctors would certainly play into that.

(2) The likelihood of having McGann included, in my opinion, would have been a factor in favor of disbelieving the rumored special, BUT… he has done and is remarkably still doing a boatload of radio programs as the 8th Doctor, and add to that that he recently attended his first ever convention, met with a very overcrowded room of 15,000 people! So McGann is in a better position than ever to make some sort of appearance – his popularity is on the upswing.

(3) The series has been seeded with VISUAL references to past doctors. Davies wanted a break with the old in certain key respects, but he’s very, very loyal to the old shows. So while these can be seen as mere tidbits to please the fans, I think they may be preparing us for something. The show is signaling that it does not want to forget the past. An 11-Doctor special would be a wonderful part of the climax to this.

Some of this doesn’t only speak in favor of the special this time around – it also speaks to a movie which might tie together the old and the new with someone like McGann present.

@ Anthony B, thank you for so clearly expressing my own thoughts and hopes for this rumored movie.:)
I completely agree with you!

As for the Children In Need special,I’m afraid that’s just another recycled rumor. As much as we all want to see it happen, I’ll believe it when I watch it.

I agree with those who want to see a telling of the whole Time War saga.

Personally, I had strong feelings about the Doctor Who movie (“Enemy Within”), both really liking many aspects and really disliking others. I thought McGann was awesome and showed real promise, and felt it tragic we were deprived of seeing more of him on film. The only regeneration sequence viewers have never seen is the one between the 8th and 9th doctors. SO…

Why not make the film a bridge between the old, the ‘attempted’ new, and the new by telling a story that many feel needs to be told anyway AND would fill in a missing piece of Doctor Who tradition!? We could even throw in some Eccleston/Tenant action since, let’s face it, I bet a lot of us are curious to see those two on screen together as Doctors. I say bring in McGann, Eccleston, AND Tenant! Let’s watch the tragedy of the destruction of Gallifrey unfold, give a chance for McGann to shine again, watch him transform into the 9th Doctor, and somewhere along the way watch the 8th, 9th, and 10th Doctors bump into each other!

BTW – I’m pumped that it looks like there’s going to be a Children In Need 15-minute special with all 11 Doctors featured!!!

@Timebender13, I totally agree with you! THAT’s exactly the movie I imagined/wished for all this time. Bring on 8,9 & 10!

By: Timebender13

Timebender13 — Fri, 19 Jun 2009 03:42:57 +0000

I so want to see the Last Great Time War! Lets have 10th telling someone about it as a frame story, 8th as the main character, and a regeneration into 9th near the end. That would be simply fantastic.
