Well in 1998 when they made the tv movie starring the 8th doctor that was originally going to be the start of a new series afterwards. However, since the movie was shown at a ridiculous time in the states and the ratings were poor (shame cos they were very high in the UK) the partnership between both fox and bbc in making the doctor who series was frozen. There has not been any talk of a movie since. None that im aware of anyway. I bleeive that Doctor Who is more focused on series 2 aswell as the production of a new christmas special which is scheduled to be aired 25th december 2006. And don't forget Torchwood aswell.Oh Yes the Sam is Back and hes more Sci-fied up than ever !!!!!!!!!
Coming Soon a new Banner from Me

Originally posted by Deputy-Assistant-Second-PrimeAlso, let's consider that the movie was in a tug-of-war between three companies and it was "Americanized".
Not sure I want a movie anyway, they tend to be cheesy and want to appeal to everyone so they can make their money back. I can see it now a "who's, who" *no pun* of the UK acting scene but no real script development.
I also think they would need to sell the TV show to the US market before they even venture at a movie deal, again they would want to make their money back and SciFi isn't cheap *Serenity*. No, better to wait for a deal on US TV *why is that not happening it can't just be the BBC asking too much* and then plot a script then make a movie, I think 2010 sounds like a good year to have a Dr Who movie released.

The fact that the movie took place in America wasn't the issue. The issue was that two American companies, along with the BBC, had control of that project and, true to form, showed a complete lack of respect for the continuity, the property, and the fans. They didn't take it seriously, so they "re-envisioned" it, so they could wrap their tiny little minds around the concept and, in doing so, drained the project of its soul.
I have lived in American all my life. I love my country.
But I simply don't want some soulless American television executive multilating my favorite program. I hate most of what's on television here. As a kid, I mainly watched PBS and a large amount of those shows were produced by the BBC.
My favorite shows are Doctor Who, Farscape, and Stargate. None of them are produced in America.
I'm not bashing America. I'm bashing the knee-jerk, lock-step, bottom-line, corporate cowards who populate American television with uninspired, sensationalized, moronic programs...all calculated to be safe from provoking thought and challenging preconceptions.

It's charming in its own way, and despite everything I said about it, I was still entertained.
Annoyed at them for throwing continuity out the window and disappointed with the shallowness of the script, but still mildly entertained.
