I've decided that I love the new opening. :D It took me a bit to hear the underlying beat but as soon as I did it was like, oh yeah, this is recognizeable and cheesey and fun :D
And I definitely agree about Amy's (so far) spurious associations. She was right, not because she as a character knew about the doctor, but because she was channeling the writers. Boo. I can't see how they didn't think that idea through and move that episode to later in the series. Though it also serves to introduce new concepts (the time war, hints at the doctor's past) so it would have naturally had to change later on in the series. it just wasn't very bright of the writers, I think. heck, how does Amy even know the doctor is old? He looks 12.
