AFGM?
A Few Good Men, yes?
Yeah, shaving strips JA of probably at least a year. The slicked-back hair made him appear younger as well.
Yes, sorry. I think the shaving and the hair did make a difference. I was expecting some of that and still found him younger looking in person than on the series. I'm not complaining. I enjoyed every second of it and thanked the gods above for the opportunity to stare at his ass in a socially acceptable arena. But he looks better with the short hair and scruff because, even live
JA's just lost some of his "jailbait pretty boy" factor. (I'm thinking specifically of "Pollo Loco" from Dark Angel, where he... oh, I'm just going to say it, he kinda looks like a rentboy.) I'm not complaining, because I think age is being very kind to him. Lucky bastard.
This. Its all relative. He still is better looking than most people have a right to be.
Frankly, it was kind of icky in seasons 2 and 3 because DB could have passed for 20 in 1997 but looked his actual age in 1998.
Yes. I agree. I was being generous, but really was thinking by the time AtS even started this was already in play. It was believable that Joyce was concerned he was hanging out with her high school daughter.
Aww, Austin, did you get to see the play? I've heard it was good, though I'm staunchly boycotting videos of it on the internet because filming live theater is JUST NOT ON.
He still is better looking than most people have a right to be.
Word. (Though, again, not complaining.)
These are locked but I think you all are on my friends list. If not, let me know and I will add you.
My brief account
My reaction about JP being there the next night
My longer account of the trip
I don't have the videos Ailleann, but I did see them. There is one you can see that doesn't violate live theater because it is a television report and only a short clip of the rehearsal. That may be part of the interview that I linked in my third entry. I can't remember.
I cringed when they scrape the Impala on that jump. They should treat her better. ::wags finger at stupid Impala hurters::
Based on my viewings of years of episodes set there, it gets cold enough for visible breath, but I think there is some kind of rule about precipitation having to be really really wet, so much so that snow doesn't count. Sleet and slush and freezing rain, though, yeah.
Vancouver is very similar in terms of weather to Seattle, as we're only about 150 miles apart. And no, the PNW does not get a lot of snow. (The Lower Mainland in general, I think, gets slightly more than Seattle, but I think Vancouver and Seattle are about the same. Hell, go east of here 25 miles, and you're more likely to have snow, too.)
(This is based on the very scientific My Aunt's House in Langley Has Snow Sometimes When We Don't method of measuring this shit.)
JA needs the age, the harder lines, the scruff, because I'm more about that than the pretty boy. He's really just ... almost too pretty otherwise.
Amyliz is me.
Oh, dunno if everyone here is into the fic, but y'all really really need to read Mockingbird by Hiyacynth, which is AU/future-fic, spinning off from canon after BUABS. NC-17, het, and 100,000 words or so. It's really quite fantastic: the pacing, the characterizations, everything is just spot-on. And it's one of the few stories to actually convince me that Sam Winchester is hella dangerous.
Ooh, I've just realized that this year, my birthday falls on a thursday: New SPN for my Birthday -- how perfect!
Awesome meta on color choices in the show, here:

So, I'm reading "Mockingbird" and I so want Dean to find out he has a kid in season 3. Preferrably a daughter.
Maybe he and Sam stop by a town they'd been to before, runs into someone who recognizes him, and gets arrested for being a deadbeat dad. Or maybe they're investigating a foster home/orphanage where wacky supernatural stuff is going down, and they eventually learn one of the kids is his.
And maybe things can be arranged so that Dean is put into the position of having to take care of the kid or leaving her to foster care. There would be much angst over Dean wanting the kid, not believing the road and hunting is the best way to raise a kid, the implied accusation that puts on his father, and the fact that he will die within a year and leave the kid alone anyway.
And of course he wants Sam to take care of the kid when he's gone, and Sam's not keen on it (or maybe he is) and there's the whole war that needs to be fought, all those hundreds of demons.
Basically, I want angst monkeys. "Life is short and Dean wants a family of his own before he dies" angst monkeys.
But of course, any type of angst monkeys will do.
