September 3rd, 2014 Beyond the Marquee It was Labor Day weekend 2012 and on September 3rd, Lindalee’s 1st Doctor Who Review made it’s debut on Beyond the Marquee and soon after into the 2 hearts of Whovians around the world. Just 4 1/2 years old at the time, the young Doctor Who’s fan review of “Asylum of the Daleks” with Matt Smith was a fluke incident destined to happen.
Having traveled between New York, London and Los Angeles, the world’s youngest Doctor Who reviewer (complete with her own set and custom built TARDIS) has interviewed 7 of the 12 original actors who have played the famous time-lord, and also chatted it up with over a 1/2 dozen companions of the hit BBC television show as well.
Today being two years to the day of her first post, we’re proud to share Lindalee’s latest review of Season 8’s newest episode “INTO THE DALEK“. What happens when the Doctor and Clara find themselves miniaturized inside of a supposedly good Dalek? Is a good Dalek even possible? It’s an amazing episode unlike you’ve ever seen! (Fun fact: In Lindalee’s 1st Doctor Who review the character of Clara had been converted from a human into a Dalek, in this episode Clara gets miniaturized as a human into a Dalek. How coincidentally fitting for a 2 year anniversary review episode!)

UrbanDictionary.com defines Sequelitis as, “A medical condition propagated by a combination of commercial success and creative ineptitude.”
This epidemic has plagued Hollywood for nearly a century, starting with The Fall of a Nation (1916), the forgotten follow-up to D.W. Griffith’s popular The Birth of a Nation (1915). This inspired sequels in every genre, from historical dramas (Cate Blanchett’s Elizabeth twofer) to softcore porn (the Wild Things foursome). The second Nation film may have been the movie industry’s first sequel, but the first major sequel with an uncreative title was the second film in The Godfather trilogy. (Say that 5 times fast.)
It’s hard to believe, but The Godfather Part II (1974), the otherwise incredibly inventive Oscar-winner that many regard as the best sequel of all time, is credited with kick-starting the worst naming trend of all time — even worse than giving people names to pets. That’s right, I’m talking about lazy sequel titling.
This newer pandemic, known hereafter as Sequel-title-itis (*), is the focus of today’s ridiculously overthought show business article. What are its symptoms? How is it spread? Who can treat it?
Commence ridiculous overthinking… NOW.
