Older Amy not wanting to die was well done, quite poignant.

In a way, it echoed Ten's distress before regenerating into Eleven, but it was done in a more subtle way than Ten's emotional crisis.

The similarities were there, before our eyes to see: Amy, like The Doctor, would remain and go on, but not quite the same Amy, not The Amy who had experienced the 36 years and had been forged through them; and not quite the same Doctor since Eleven is not Ten. BTW I think there was an obvious hint at the parallel when Rory suggested to give a number to the Amys...of course they both wanted to be One!

Once upon a time Amy made a choice; Rory had to choose this time too. Who's going to make the next choice? River?

I still think that it will be The Doctor himself, choosing to erase one life (and given his ability to regenerate it had to happen the way it did in Lake Silencio) so OUR Doctor will get to follow his "normal path" with his friends.

And I guess that he will do it out of love, he will choose to do it for River, just like Older Amy did it for Rory, so River and her Eleven would have the opportunity to spend time together as a couple.

I think that Rory said something important when he told Eleven "you make me like you" (or something like that).

Vanishing will be The Doctor's choice (and it will show that Eleven is much tougher than Ten).

Since Rory acted as proxy in the episode, wearing the spectacles so The Doctor would see...I have a new idea about who is in the spacesuit in The Impossible Astronaut. I think it could be Rory actually.

In this episode, The Doctor made a choice by shutting the door but he let Rory make the choice of NOT opening the door, so it could foreshadow older Doctor choosing to erase himself for the benefit of a younger self, and using Rory to pull the trigger!
