That’s why I love 12ths refusal to regenerate the most. _So many_ references. Also we all know that the Sontaran part basically became what we Whovians all started to shout whenever suddenly waking up.
@@WindyREDPanda I respectfully disagree. It was just the right amount of drama, especially since he was talking as himself and not just The Doctor. And the switch was well handled, one personality to another, and the differences made sense.
@@WindyREDPanda He was the most human Doctor, so it was very aptly dramatic. That was the point. Every part of 10's journey was about how human he was and how dangerous his human element became, because only a very human Doctor would become the Time Lord Victorious. Yes he overcame becoming the Time Lord Victorious, but that didn't stop him from being very human until the very end. The fact that the 11th Doctor started with something so wacky was also very intentional, because the 11th Doctor was one of the most alien ones.
That one sentence BROKE Doctor Who for me. I had always believed that it was a single soul running throughout the many regenerations, just in a new body each time. For David to say he didn't want to go went against all that - he WASN'T 'going' he was simply getting a new body! Bad writing ruining the whole thing.
@@ryanantranxia7044 I always saw it as the 10th Doctor being a bit more self-absorbed than other incarnations. Like Chtholly mentioned above, he was the most Human the Doctor's ever been and it makes sense for him to grow attached to his current mind and body given he's a lot more charismatic and "good-looking" compared to other incarnations. He got too attached to his current self over his run and was scared of losing it, just like 11th said in Night of the Doctor, he had "Vanity Issues". Sure it could be just overdramatic writing, but on some rewatches, and taking the 10th Doctor's darker side into consideration, it actually does kind of fit in character for his current form to be sad of losing a body and mind he grew attached to to the point he becomes scared of turning into something he might consider worse. From what we know, regeneration is painful and it's never something the Doctor looks forward to experiencing, so when 10 says it feels like dying, I kind of believe that, but maybe 10 just feels that way more than other incarnations because of the things I mentioned above. This is just how I view it, but I kind of like the thought of the Doctor having flaws like this during certain incarnations, and 10's more human nature (no pun intended) kind of fits that. Curious to see if they build upon that with him returning as the 14th Doctor.
I like how detailled the producers of the New Series (pre-Chris Chibnall) goes along deepening the lore, metaphysics and psychology behind Time Lord regeneration by including so many details such as the Doctor's mid-regeneration behavioral psychosis or how he tries hard to fight off some echoes from his past incarnations prompting him to transform and let go. It gives such a realistic, almost palpable insight on this otherwise completely otherwordly, uber-mystical process.
I think it's part of the Regenerative Dissonance the Doctor experiences at the start of every new life. It goes both ways for 12, though, cause he was the first of his second (pre-Chibnall) regeneration cycle.
Well Chibnall has added a whole lot of new lore. Now that the Doctor isn't a Timelord and has infinite regenerations. It will be interesting to see what people do with that going forward.
@@Milamberinx So to speak, nothing. Chibnall has simply killed the mythos by throwing sixty years worth of hard work off the garbage and disrespecting the creative imput of all of his predecessors with the most nonsensical plot armor in history, turning a flawed god into some invincible Mary Sue no one can ever judge nor question, even when he or she commits acts of cold murder of both innocent people and vengeful survivors/victims alike-- which is NOT what the Doctor stands for. The wisest solution might he to de-retcon the series entirely and bring back the Gallifrey mythos intact. Not the first time the Doctor get lied at or lie to people. If you can remove the half-Human origin story from the equation, then you can remove a lot of things.
In my opinion this was by far one of the best and one of my favorite regeneration scenes from Doctor Who :,) I'll never forget when the doctor was Capaldi 💙
Alright so nerd rant here You know, from an evolutionary psychology viewpoint this makes sense, memories are strengthened through being recalled, this uses specific neural pathways relating to the memory, and those pathways being used again and again is what makes those pathways(thus those memories) stronger Time lords/Gallifreyans may have evolved this neat little trait of instinctively recalling the memories of each "regeneration" of their life when close to regenerating, to ensure the person remembers who they were, what they've done, their knowledge and so on, as forgetting several lifetimes could prove dangerous to an immortal who's likely made enemies, or might just lose motivation for their goals and lose what drives them, maybe even just go mad
It's shown in Four's run that Romana could edit and customize her regeneration. The Doctor never got that far into formally studying his own/Time Lord abilities. "Regeneration. It's a lottery." Not when you're educated.
I've been searching for a long time about the line "sontarans changing history" because with jodies doctor it finally happened on screen. Edit:grammatic
4th recalling 3rd (4x3 = 12), 6th Regeneration twice (6x2 = 12), I'm seeing a pattern here. 12th had 2 past doctors be in contact while he was around in some form (11th called and 1st he met, 11+1 = 12), Now to just stretch it, 2nd doctor rotates 10 times (2+10 = 12)
dont know if youve done this reference video yet but captain jack in bad wolf 18:05 and revolution of the daleks 17:54 both pull out a smuggled object and when asked where he hid it he responds with "do you really wanna know?"
@@toasterroast7678 You're literally watching a video of previous lines being referenced and you still manage to complain about him. Doctor Who has _always_ used old lines in references to old Doctors. There are many things wrong with Chibnall's time, but that is certainly not one of them, or at least it's such a petty thing to complain about.
Waring a bit thin the Doctor's final song the last woes of regeneration remembering the entire life's of who this time lord has been and possibly he or she will be? Actually this stage of regeneration maybe a reveal to the Doctor to wherever he or she'll become as a future shock a brief clips into a time in the future a possible future? A dream watcher? The watcher of of old there's something we forget about the origin of the Doctor's regeneration's is that line used " The ways be prepared for " this has a meaning to the future vision of the new Doctor's next regeneration he or she can possible see their future selfies briefly in a separate dream prior to regenerating this actually applies to a moment in the series of when the forth Doctor becomes the fith Doctor?
honestly i don't like the idea of them reusing line from other doctors during regeneration. its the actors final goodbye. it should be their style condensed into a single moment.
Keep in mind this wasn't actually his regeneration, it was the beginning of the episode where he refused to regenerate until the end. But it is kind of fitting for Capaldi's Doctor to use quotes for previous Doctors as a precursor to his regeneration. I remember watching an interview where Capaldi described that he took inspiration from all the Doctors that came before him, especially the ones he idolized as a teenager. You can even see it in many of his episodes, little bits of previous Doctors' mannerisms all mixed into his performance as a tribute to the show he loved growing up. So I just think it is perfect for Capaldi to reference those that came before him to start off his regeneration and ending with his "Always be kind" speech.
"Sontarans! Perverting the course of human history!" -Fourth Doctor (Tom Baker) "I don't wanna go..." -Tenth Doctor (David Tennant) "When the Doctor was me..." -Eleventh Doctor (Matt Smith) "Its started, I'm regenerating..." -Tenth Doctor (David Tennant) "NO NO NO NO NO" -Second Doctor (Patrick Troughton)

I like Capaldi's Doctor but I'm sorry I didn't liked this scene. He was overacting all a long and that was too much for me. Too much fan service... I don't like the fact that they do too much on regeneration. The more time passes, the longer the text is, tearful and overplayed.

For Smith, it was already "a thing", with the double-regen and a real "speech" like a goodbye of Matt... And then Capaldi with almost two episode for it...
I genuinely think that 11 had the best regeneration. If we disregard the first one where he gets a new cycle and look solely at the second one where he truely regenerates it was perfect. He made a heartfelt speech from the doctor, recalling his past companions (which is very sweet), whilst coupling it with Matt’s own experiences (I will not forget one line of this… etc). And then when he regenerates it’s quick and and non destructive, as he has fully accepted that he can’t stop it now (whereas say 10, he refuses to go and so his regeneration blows up the tardis with all that held back regeneration energy.
