Ahh but I never said "kept" I said "did", as in they created the look themselves with plungers. So your retarded analogy fails.

Well, in my opinion, the idea is a very sci-fi one, and despite that Steven Moffat thinks of it more as a modern dark fairytale, it still has its basis in science fiction.

You're a bit simple, huh. Let me reiterate my point:

In the RTD era, they managed to "update" the Daleks to reflect modern production values expectations*, yet they went backwards with the Silurians and made them look stupider than the low-quality, rubber face masks of the originals. I would prefer a convincing prosthetic mask and a laser-shooting weird third eye to a shitty face-paint job and no wacky laser-shooting third eye.

The fact you don't seem to quite understand this makes me feel sorry for your parents.

* Then ruined them again with their candy coated new version.

Really enjoyed the episode, the only downside was how much of it seemed to be laying a backstory and building up to the second part.. but I'm not sure if you can avoid that. Next weeks episode looks amazing for sure.

Also to reply to the above conversation, I think this entire season so far the sonic has been much more of a tool and less of a magic wand, I love it.

It's also a lot less discreet
