just saw it

By "it," of course I mean "End of Time, part two." It's late here so I won't post a full review, but I just had to share one tiny reaction.

At the beginning, when Lord President Time Lord vaporized the dissenting Time Lord, I thought, "What the hell was that -- the Death Glove of Rassilon?"

And now I realize: OMG, that really was the Death Glove of Rassilon!!

So, it turns out that at least EoT pt. II gave me a laugh, albeit an unintended one.

I might do more of a reaction post later, but in case I never feel like revisiting this again here's the 3-bullet summation: 1) a few good scenes, 2) a lot of mess, 3) happy that the next season finale will be under Moffat and not RTD.

I called it a Magic Glove of Death(TM) because I had no idea, at the time I scribbled that particular note, that he was Rassilon...

My reaction can be summed up thusly: McGuffins, Bobbins and Plotholes!

We were trying to figure out here if that really WAS Rassilon himself or if that was an insult (like calling someone Hitler)... it was, to say the least, not a little vague. :-P

Oh, yeah, we giggled for a while when The Glove of Rassilon/The Staff of Rassilon/ The Diamond of Rassilon turned out to really be ...of Rassilon :D
