speaking of stephen moffat
here is the best bit of an interview with stephen moffat from io9:
We've been debating on our site endlessly: Is Doctor Who a kids' program?
Yes. Debate over. It's good to fix those things quickly.
...
Have you seen Wall-E?
I haven't seen Wall-E. It looks fantastic.
I was really blown away by it. It's a kid's movie, but it deals with some incredibly weighty issues.
The misconception about children's fiction is that it's lightweight or fluffy. It's about really big and important things. It's adults who like light and fluffy. Everything is big and important to a child, [so] their stories are about big and important events.
hell yeah.
