Anyhow, Moffat ruined his own monster...it had simple focused rules that worked extremely well...it was almost like a game of tag and now he made it into SimCity 3000....I literally laughed when they said "You have to look at it, but you can't look at its eyes." It's simply the most stupid line ever. Think of the possible stupid taglines: "An Army of Lonely Assassins..."...and Angel Bob....you may as well have the Angels talk in Barney's voice and sing children songs...and oh..."they can feed on radiations"...they probably didn't need to hunt people if they knew that Earth has many inanimate systems/objects that they can feed on...[[Special:Contributions/222.166.181.146|222.166.181.146]] 08:16, June 25, 2010 (UTC)

You could rationalise it with the idea that the Angels seen in ToS have in some way 'evolved' beyound those in Blink and have new/differing abilities.  Things don't stay the same.  I'd say it was just changing the alien to fit the plot needs.  Not entirely happy with it; I liked the 'purer' idea of the Angles from Blink too.  The fact that they were 'observed' and 'quantum locked'  (not by choice) becasue of this was nice.  The optional defence mechanism explantion just isn't the same calibre of idea; its a significant weakening of the 'alienness' of them.  Still;  I quite like the way BOB communicated; nice an flat.  Jack.
