Supernatural 2: Why is it our job to save everybody?  

[NAFDA]. This is where we talk about the CW series Supernatural! Anything that's aired in the US on TV (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though — if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it.

Because books.

The difference, for me, is that I'm sure *Misha* embraced the cheese and enjoyed the hell out of getting paid for it. Jensen, probably not so much. And no, MBV didn't get its own B-movie badness in the same way, sadly.

I think Jared's remake of Friday the 13th had a great sense of humor, but it also ended up being genuinely scarier than MBV, at least for gore and startle scares.

And then there was Jared on a motorcycle. Happy sigh.

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

I feel MBV did have some payoffs, though. I will always appreciate:

I mean, this is a net positive for the world, and Supernatural didn't seem to be picking up the precise slack. Although Skin was a brave attempt on many fronts.

Oh, don't get me wrong, I still watch MBV all the time. Because, you know, JENSEN.

But his portrayal of Tom was sort of angsty psychotic Dean in Sam's hoodie.

Warm cherry pie:

Wow, Jensen's adam's apple really works in the closeup .gif of him with the big eyes. Is Jared's that noticeable? I can't remember.

I thought MBV was absolutely a narrative cheat, FWIW. First off, promo art like the first I linked kinda spells it out, and mysteries that go back and show you that you literally did not see what they'd originally shown you--I think that's cheap and clumsy.

That's what I hate about it -- the ending is pure suck. I think Devour's ending might make more sense.

I remember forgetting the ending to Devour, and I'm pretty good with that. I knew the ending before I watched it, and then watching it erased it from my brain.

I don't remember it, either, but I know it pissed me off a lot less than MBV's ending.

Boys need to make some non-horror movies (much as I love horror). And no more movies about cheesy painters, either.

Yeah--at least I managed to get through the horror movies. Stonehenge Apocalypse is the only one I enjoyed, and the Christmas Cottage I couldn't finish.

Action where they're the hero, or something where they get a sex scene--or both. But I'm not quite ready to give up the security of Show for it yet. I'm selfish and smallminded in that regard.

Oh, I'm not either. I realized the other day (as if this should be a revelation -- you think you're an emo fangirl) that one day the show will end, and then not only will I have no more Sam and Dean, I won't get any more updates on Jared and Jensen's shenanigans, or future children, or whatever.

I couldn't finish The Christmas Cottage or Stonehenge Apocalypse. But I'm willing to try the second one again either drunk or with some weed, for sure.
