    I throughly enjoyed my viewing experience. 

    Was it fantastic cinema? No. Was it filmed in a technically satisfying way? No. Was the dialogue so bad it was good? Yes. Was it HELLA campy? ABSOLUTELY.  

    Good for her.

    Didn’t cry as much this time, but still such an impactful story (and don’t worry there was still many tears).

    I loved (and was very emotional about) noticing that Roz touches the spot near her neck that Brightbill nuzzled (so much that it was one of the only shiny parts of her metal), when she is thinking about him.

    My favorite scene is the one word test in the greenhouse. SUBERB . And the whole episode being an allegory for the doctor as a person and the emotional fallout from what happened with Rory and Amy: BRILLIANT.

    There is something about most direct to dvd Disney sequels from the very early 2000s where they are mostly bad and have the same animation style (I’m looking at you Aladdin: Jafar’s Return). Exceptions being the third Aladdin and Cinderella movies. 

    This one definitely has nostalgia in its favor but definitely after rewatching the absolute BANGER that is the first one, this one falls a bit short. 

    WHY ARE THE COLORS LIKE THAT?!?

    Also you’re telling me their kid has…
