I liked the How To Train A Dragon D/C adaptation. Worked for me. It's the only D/C I've read so far. I haven't really been paying much attention to anything but the art. And there's been too much photomanipping for my tastes, but some great stuff. I'll do a summary of what I like when the challenge is over.

I saw Rumsey Hall -- I think I might have bookmarked it to read later. Looked decent.

I usually love obstinatrix, but J2/Misha? Eh.

Filming starts today, with Jensen directing, or so SuperWiki says. Whee!

General show promo that aired during one of the repeats.

huh.

Can't wait for a less sparkly title card (yeah, never warmed up to that one, no matter how thinky you get about it).

You know, sometimes I wish that Supernatural would take a page out of the Charlie/Dani dynamic from Life, and have Dean have an epiphany that self-sacrifice for his brother isn't the answer. That it's not simply a matter of trading his life/soul for the one he loves most. To realize that reversing roles isn't being heroic, or even loving. To realize that removing himself from Sam's life is even more hurtful to Sam than just letting him stay dead (and in Heaven). And that ties into Dean's self-image, and sense of self worth. I don't think Show has a way to ever showcase that without being repetitive, but my greatest wish is for Show to eventually break that Western mold of what a hero does for those he loves. I think the only other time I saw that (in my limited viewing experience) was Babylon 5, with Shepherd and Kosh and Z'ha'dum. Do you love someone enough to live for them? (in that sense, Dean being selfish/selfless with Lisa is consistent; he thinks he's doing the right thing for those he loves, but really he's only making it easier for himself. Instead of having to live with the grief of Sam's death, he makes Sam live with his death, plus the knowledge that he's suffering in Hell for eternity. Not cool, dude. See, Dean needs to hang out with Detective Crews some more, eat fruit, save the girl and then save himself for the girl.

I might love Life/Supernatural crossovers a little bit (dream!guest stars next season!!!)

but, then again, this is a show that has an angel putting the health and safety of a mortal body over an immortal soul, so, yeah, never gonna happen.

Banana chocolate milkshake: aw man, I wish I wasn't poor. Jared and Misha are going to be 20 minutes from me this weekend.

I don't want that all to happen for Dean, at least not before the last minute, because I like that brokenness about him. It's a compelling flaw, the lengths he'll go to in order to undervalue himself for just about anyone, but most especially primarily Sam. I adore that about him.

And it's hot.

Oh, definitely a not until the last minute, series finale, kinda thing.

Misha will never be president now that he's hanging out with hookers his mom. [link]

Yanno, I saw that yesterday and I'm still laughing. Misha would fit in quite nicely with our lunch group at work.

So, I'm fooling around at [link] to get my mobster nickname. I'm The Blossom, apparently.

I put in Dean and Sam's names: The Mangler and The Pipsqueak respectively.
