Doctor Who

Let me get this straight:

Eccleston was pretty excitable. It's actually one of the things I liked about him.

Then Tennant comes along, and he's just as excitable, but less little kid-ish about him

And Smith is even more kid-ish than 9 or 10? I've managed to avoid any previews of 11, hardly the impression I got from the plot I've gleaned (its hard to be 4 years behind on a show).

I'm still in the middle of Tennant, but I've noticed a pattern among my friends. It seems that all of my British friends (here) don't care for Smith and the direction the show took after he came. However, all of my friends here in the States can't seem to wait until I get to Smith.

Is there something distinctly American to Smith that the Brits don't like but the Americans love?

The last transfer was to DVD and they included the whole film frame to give it a 16:9 aspect ratio if I recall correctly.  This version is blue-ray, and will have the original broadcast 4:3 aspect ratio.  I think a bunch of fans were upset about the changes. LOL go figure.
What kind of company listens to fans? What do they know?

Revenge vs. Return
Time

I love how I remember somehow that it was changed because "A Jedi doesn't take revenge." Then I remember hearing that it was too similar to "Star Trek II: The Revenge of Khan", so they both changed their titles.

The issue with "Revenge" being the original title is that Luke never revenges anything in the movie, in any version of the script. It was a bad title to begin with, I'm glad it changed.
