Oh, Cushing was terrific, and I did enjoy "The Daleks" in color. But, certainly the first movie is basically a plot-point-for-plot-point recreation of "The Daleks" story arc from the First Doctor's run, with a few tweaks to the characters and the addition of a bigger budget and color film stock.
As a side note:
- I was surprised that they said they were bored during the 5th Doctor's run. I rather like the 5th Doctor episodes.
- I was likewise surprised that they had no venom (other than about the costume) for the Sixth Doctor, given how poorly most long-time fans view that run. (Although I think the stories themselves were pretty good, although the Doctor's personality never quite coalesced -- for which I blame the writers and the script editors....Saward, wasn't it, at this point?)
