Can someone who watches Supernatural calibrate the beating for me? I mean, I watched it and it wasn't fun, but it didn't stand out.
You know, with the exception of one deadly and unpredictable midget, this girl is the smallest cargo I've ever had to transport. Yet by far the most troublesome. Does that seem right to you?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Like Dana, I couldn't really watch it, but then I am a wuss.

I am not a good judge of onscreen brutality.

Ah, yes--Criminal Minds is another show I'd measure pummelling grossness by.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I am not usually a wuss, but there was something about this one. But I would have to watch all of it to tell you what it was.

For me it was that it just. Kept. Going. I was expecting Bob to either give up Raylan, or to get knocked out and/or killed, but he just kept taking it. Plus the music that was playing, which struck as a blatant homage to Reservoir Dogs, and also reminded me of the scene of the sheriff and his family getting killed to the sounds of Johnny Mathis in the X-File's "Home".

It was very Reservoir Dogs ish, especially at the beginning.
Honestly, I was thinking "Yolo looks really vulnerable to a groin kick, I wonder if Bob will take it?" for at least some of it. And then wondering if I was not getting the Drew puns or not hearing them right.

I could probably watch it now, knowing he lives. I have to rewatch the episode anyway, once my husband and I are in the same city again.

I had been spoiled that Bob was going to get a hurtin' so, as soon as I saw it coming, I jumped ahead. Then, went back in little pieces until I could watch the whole thing. I'm glad I did because, apart from the gore, the interchanges between the two a really charming...in a totally disturbing way, of course.
It's just a really well written scene.

I actually found the scene with Ava in the bar harder to watch.
Another favorite moment, "I'd like a young Gerard Depardieu to play me in the movie." I wonder if that was in the script or if Ron Eldard was just being really self-aware.
