Eyes Wide Shut

I guess all those people the Angels killed were just lacking confidence. I mean, it's dumb enough to rewrite basic rules, but this is just going out of your way to rewrite the Angels, and also be ridiculous. So the Angels that you have to always be looking at or they will kill you, now you can be around them with your eyes completely closed, as long as you pretend that you can see. I don't even have anything funny to say about that. It is insulting. You are basically being called an idiot by this show. "HEY IDIOT," the show is saying, "THANKS FOR WATCHING THIS SHITTY EPISODE OF A SHOW."

How do we stop the Crack? Well, we can't. Not until the season finale when the Pandorica opens and Silence falls. Or I guess if this episode is anything to go by, you could just stick your fingers in your ears and go la-la-la whenever it is around, and it will be fooled. But first let's try a "big complicated spacetime event" which should shut it up for a while, like for example the Doctor. Or Weeping Angels. Just chuck 'em in there and it'll be fine. But make sure and have yet another huge fucking emotional showdown about how Doctor you can't sacrifice yourself because believe in the stars and adventure and never growing up and blah-blah-blah. But first, let's discuss this: "The Angels are scared and running. Right now they're not that interested in you. They'll assume you can see them, and their instincts will kick in. All you've got to do is walk like you can see. Just don't open your eyes. Walk like you can see."

I realize that is a tall order, because it's several stupid things at once. And I realize Amy's sense of self-preservation lies generally somewhere below the standard of her fellow strippers or even coke whores, but do you think you could just focus on this retarded idea long enough to get to the Primary Flight Deck? Which seems to be a few yards away on this tiny cheap little set? No? No, you cannot? You'd rather trip over a root and drop your walkie-talkie and start screaming out loud about how you're blind and so forth? Women. Can't live with 'em, can't expect them to be somehow blinded and yet also see where they are going, while walking with an air of confidence that screams "I am totally not blind right now! My closed eyes are wide open!"
