Howling:What's in the pandorica?

I looked at the Big Bang page on the wiki and everyone seems to think an old master villain is coming back. So what is in the pandorica? I think the Pandorica is the TARDIS. Or a TARDIS. Discuss. the twelfth doctor 19:27, June 12, 2010 (UTC)
 * It's not the Beast, the whole 666 thing is bull, and while he may be a goblin, I doubt the Doctor would call him a "Trickster."
 * It's not the Master. Bringing him back would serve no logical purpose.
 * It's not Omega, same reason as above.


 * It's Bill Cosby. The evil dude. 19:29, June 12, 2010 (UTC)


 * It's a prison of some sort. It will release all of these enemies. 19:36, June 12, 2010 (UTC)
 * I agree that it wont be The master or the Beast for the reasons you said but as for omega he was eating stuff up like the cracks in the three doctors but your probably right no logical reason to bring him back in peter davisons era why now. As for it being a Tardis well the genesis ark was kind of a prison and a tardis . But I don't thinks its the doctors tardis Winehousefan, 20:40, June 12, 2010 [UTC]


 * It may be Time Lord technology again thoug. I doubt it as they have played that Time Lord technology prison before with the Genesis Ark. 19:42, June 12, 2010 (UTC)
 * Yeah LOL this would have Daleks cybermen and time lord tech and [rumoured] Billie Piper bit simiilar to Doomsday. But are the enemies neccessarily coming out of the prison though I read on this wiki that they were trying to throw the doc in. Though I suppose they could get out and then chuck him in. I think whether it is a tardis or not the rumors of it being connected to the the time lords are true as the lodger was all about a Tardis someone building a Tardis obviously something else from gallifrey is returning. It might be some super Tardis unlike any we have seen different from even the genesis Ark, though I suppose that is still a bit doomsday. Winehousefan: 21:55, June 12, 2010, [UTC]
 * In the trailer for the next episode it looked more like it _attracted_ all the other aliens. Rubbernecking? :) 82.95.255.5 20:02, June 12, 2010 (UTC)
 * River song was kind of like "look doctor its the daleks", plus you saw there were all spaceships flying towards the earth, whether they had just sort of been released or they were flying there toward the earth because thats where the pandorica was, is very hard to tell at the moment. I guess it could either be them being released and river could of been saying thats whats coming out when she went on about the monsters Daleks cybermen and such. Or that could have been them arriving and she was either telling them whats just arrived or what will be attracted here. I read that there is the most feared thing in the cosmos in the pandorica so again it could be the monsters escaping from it or coming there to stop it opening either is possible.

 * Yes, and the Doctor even asks why all the aliens are converging on the Pandorica. So, clearly they're not coming out of it.


 * All we know about what's in the prison is the Doctor's "goblin, trickster, warrior" quote (from the Radio Times weeks ago, but now we know it's the Doctor saying it), and it's the most feared being in the cosmos. Sounds like a very special prison to hold just one very dangerous enemy, not a prison full of all kinds of stuff.


 * And if it's an ancient prison that's passed into myth even among the Time Lords, whatever's in there presumably hasn't been running around in the new series. So no Beast, no Master, no future Doctor. Who exactly could have put them there post-LGTW?


 * OK, I suppose the Master could pull a Brer Rabbit--he begs, "Please Brer Rassilon, do whatever you want to me, zap me with your glove, torture me to death, but don't send me back to the beginning of time to be locked in the Pandorica for all eternity", because he somehow knows that it's the only way out of the time lock. But it seems too soon to bring him back.


 * I still think it's going to be an all-new enemy that Steven Moffat invented that's going to scare the pants of everyone. That's what the Moff is best at, after all. --Falcotron 05:19, June 13, 2010 (UTC)

Listing what we know about what's in the Pandorica:
 * It's a singular being.
 * It's something that the Daleks, Cybermen, Sontarans, et al can all agree is too dangerous to let out.
 * It's soaked in the blood of a billion worlds.
 * It's a trickster, or a warrior.
 * It's the most feared thing in all the cosmos.

I can only think of one thing in the universe that meets all of those: the oncoming storm, the destroyer of worlds. Monkey with a Gun 06:00, June 13, 2010 (UTC)


 * See Combom's blog for the best version I've seen of the "it's the Doctor" argument. But, even though I'm the one who indirectly gave the idea to Combom, I still don't think it's the Doctor. --Falcotron 06:02, June 13, 2010 (UTC)
 * What really seals it for me is the latest trailer, when the Doctor's narration of what "it" is is voiced over... shots of the Doctor. Monkey with a Gun 06:05, June 13, 2010 (UTC)


 * Actually, I think the latest trailer is the one on the BBC website, which Americans like me can't see (even though I've seen it--I think I took a quick trip to the UK or something), and it doesn't have that line at all.
 * I assume you mean the "new week" bit at the end of the Lodger (which starts with Rosanna's quote about the cracks instead of Prisoner Zero's)? If so, it isn't voiced over shots of the Doctor; it's over Amy, River, and the Doctor, alternating from one to the next to the next and then finally all 3 of them at once. "[closeup of Amy's face] There was a goblin, or [long-shot of River from behind] a trickster [cut to the Doctor] or a warrior, soaked in the blood [cut to River] of a billion galaxies [to a 3-shot of them all side-by-side]. The most feared [2-shot of just the Doctor and Amy, with River barely visible off the edge of the screen] being in all the cosmos."
 * Or is there another new trailer I don't know about? --Falcotron 07:23, June 13, 2010 (UTC)
 * I don't think the Daleks, Cybermen etc are in the Pandorica, I think they've been summoned by the Pandorica to stop the Doctor from stopping it. Then again, since it's based on Pandora's box (in which all the evils of the world are contained), it's quite possible there's something inside the Pandroica that takes their form. The Doctor opens it, thus releasing the Daleks etc. I still think the Pandorica is the TARDIS though. the twelfth doctor 07:44, June 13, 2010 (UTC)

 * I'm pretty sure the Pandorica is the big puzzle box that the Doctor, Amy, and River are standing in front of and examining in all three trailers. The one with the gears that begin turning by themselves, to which the Doctor says, "It's opening," in the "Next Time" trailer. Which certainly doesn't look like the TARDIS. --Falcotron 07:50, June 13, 2010 (UTC)
