That moment was a really tear jerking moment. You could hear in Ten's voice that he wasn't just speaking for the Doctor (who went through a whole lot and personally I felt gained loads of character development) since he's aware his current self will be forever gone, but I could also feel he was speaking for himself as well. Even now Ten's regeneration was a far better regeneration than Nine's due to Ten's regret and grief. Also from what we know, Ten also lived a very short regeneration. This regeneration only lasted 6 years was it? Here we have Eleven who has lived for about 300 years or so and carried with him great guilt for Amy and Rory's deaths, and he's just now realized how important Clara is to him. I wouldn't be surprised if he even begins crying tears as he finally regenerates instead of just being upset.

And let's not forget why Ten was so sad about regenerating:
"Even then, even if I change, it feels like dying. Everything I am dies. Some new man goes sauntering away. And I'm dead."

I completely forgot this was tomorrow.

Also, Google is celebrating 50 years of Doctor Who with a game, choose which Doctor you want to play as!

I thought Day of the Doctor was brilliant.

I'm a bit worried though, it looks like Doctor Who is in its endgame now:

Spoiler

Overall though, I think it was a very fitting and very well made tribute to 50 years of the shows history.

I thought Capaldi was 12?

Technically, he's the 13th, since John Hurt is actually between what we know as the Eighth and Ninth Doctors.

Well, Stephen Moffat is being an awkward bastard and calling John Hurt's doctor the War Doctor, rather than the 9th.

I don't see why though, this just makes things needlessly complicated.

I had tears of joy in the last ~20 minutes of the special.

Spoiler

especially since they explicitly called Hurt's Doctor the Doctor towards the end. What was the point of all that if he is still the "reject" doctor? AND he was counted as one of the 13 doctors when they were saving Gallifrey. AND he showed up alongside all the others at the end.

Perhaps

The Five(ish) Doctors Reboot has a nice surprise at the end...

Hilariously late, waited for finals to be over to watch the 50th.

I thought it was great. Was expecting Billie Piper to reprise her role as Rose, but I think she did the part of "Bad Wolf" quite nicely. Absolutely loved John Hurt's performance as the War Doctor, as well as Tennant reprising his role as 10. Jenna Coleman/Matt Smith are always nice to see, I love their dynamic.

The little nod towards 10's last words by 11 was kind of nice, I think it made me hate it a little less (kind of justifies the over-the-top exclamation, if only a little bit).

Did they use a stand-in for 9? Something about it just looked off.

Can't wait for the Christmas special.

Yeah, Christopher Eccleston completely washed his hands of anything Doctor Who.

I decided to start watching this show because of all the hype around it, just finished blink and holy pomegranate.

Oh, that's too bad. 9 was probably my favourite of new Who. Sad

Extremely excited for Silent Night and to see Capaldi, I've been a huge fan of his for years.
Sad to see Matt go though.

Since OT is the 50th though, I went to see it in theaters with some friends and good times happened (unshamelessly picstiches). The place was packed and I met a lot of really fun people.
