Moffat Massacres
This is my book of random ranblings about sherlock and doctor who and all fanfics based on them.
To start off, I am going to share my thoughts on a subject we Wholockers could complain all day about.
You all know who he is.
Yes. It's Satan himself.
He reuses plotlines, destroys characters we love and ruins amazing baddies with crappy storylines.
He has ruined so many of my favourite storylines that I'm gonna relive a few memorable 'Damn you Moffat!' moments which I had buried deep within my brain. Now I'm going to share my annoyance with my fellow fans. If you do have any other plotlines you think I should add in, feel free to comment or PM me with suggestions. XD
Alright. Let the complaining begin!
1. Repetitive Plotlines
Doctor Who - Amy and Rory jumps off a building
Sherlock - Sherlock jumps off a building
Doctor Who - The Doctor fakes his death
Sherlock - Sherlock fakes his death
Gaaaaaaaaahhhhhh! Where have all the original plotlines gone!!!
Not only did he scare the crap outta me by almost killing my favourite characters but he did it in one of the most demeaning ways possible! Let's throw them off a building!! No. Just. No.
Once was enough. But twice!
No.
Enough said.
2. Series Plotline/ Character Overkill
Everyone knows about the hidden secrets about the different characters introduced as cliffhangers in several plotlines.
They can either be so memorable that you still can get over the genius of it, or it can turn into what I like to call, overkill.
There is gonna be two sections.
The good. And the Bad.
First up,
The Good
1. Sherlock: Moriarty
Yes the arch enemy arises. As soon as he is revealed it is a shock to the system. He pretended to be gay for crying out loud!!!
This criminal mastermind is one of my favourites to watch. His casting is perfect, his acting is perfect, his portrayal is perfect.
Sorry Sherlock, but for series two and possibly three, Moriarty steals the show.
Yes. I know the good doesn't match up to the bad. But it's Moffat we're talking about here!
The Bad
1. Doctor Who: The Question/ The Name of the Doctor
At first, this plotline sounds interesting. But as soon as the question is described, it's so obvious that I'm amazed it lasted so long. It was so obvious that it was staring me in the face. Literally.
Not only did they overkill revealing the question itself, they rode on the plotline itself and created another one based on it, which was even worse than the first one!
They wanted to reveal his name!
And then after all that build up, did they reveal it?
No.
Personally, I'm glad they didn't, but what a waste of a plot line.
2. Companion Plotlines and Epilogue
There has been many companions each with their own plotline which is usually solved at the end of a series.
But ever since the end of Rose Tyler, the plotlines for the companions have gone slightly downhill.
Now, don't get me wrong, I adored Amy and Rory, but Clara.
Not so much.
The introduction to Clara, or as we knew her then, Oswin Oswald, I enjoyed a lot.
But from there, the Impossible girl plot went to blazes.
It was quite. Predictable.
Not as predictable as 'the Question' plotline but, predictable all the same.
The Madam Vastra and Kaag parts were OK, but I felt it was a little pointless. The only thing holding it up was the Kaag humour and the Doctor pretending to be sherlock holmes.
River Song:
I found River, a bit of a mixed bag to be honest.
I didn't mind her at the start, loved her as the assassin, but as Amy and Rory's daughter and a Time Lord and The Doctor's Wife.
Bit much.
But the cliffhanger was quite good.
Demon's Run. Was not.
Enough said.
But that aside, the deaths are the worst.
You know what I'm talking about.
My favourite couple.
Amy and Rory
*batman voice*
I have to give Moffat his dues, the story he wrote for Amy and Rory, I really liked it.
But killing him the way he did.
I will never forgive him for that.
3. Trenzalore and Alien Plotlines
Another overkill plotline.
They made Matt bald and into an old man!
And they ruined the crack in the wall plotline, the name of the Doctor plotline and the Silence!!
Not that much aliens in it either.
Wooden cyberman. No.
Speaking of aliens, Moffat sucked the scariness out of them too.
Vampires turned into fish people.
Terrifying metal cybermen turned into a chess game and tree people.
Darlek's lost their minds over eggs.
But the worst of all in my opinion.
The one I had been waiting for, ever since they had been created.
The Silence. Were priests. o_O
Moffat!!!! Yaaar! X-(
4. Gallifrey Plotline
For as long as I have seen Doctor Who, there has always been a mention of The Doctor and what he did in Gallifrey.
It's one of the longest plotlines ever and it's always mentioned when you least expect it.
It shows how the Doctor himself is human and sometimes making a massive mistake can also save lives.
But what does Moffat do!
He breaks that rule. That one rule!!
He changed it.
He decided to do the impossible.
He brought Galifrey back.
That. Is the biggest no.
Ever.
That storyline has been around since the very beginning and Moffat decides to undo it altogether!
I kind of like the idea of Gallifrey, but only if Moffat creates a miracle and somehow writes it good.
But we all know what he's like.
And that isn't gonna happen.
Damn you Moffat!!
