Oh tiggy, you are my favorite tonight, yes you are. I hadn't seen it.
You know, digital and updated equipment is all very pretty, and helps make up for a lot. But it can't make up for the loss of, as Theresa says, Kim's eye. Honestly? I sincerely doubt we'd ever have gotten a second season without his eye. When I look at those first season panoramic shots, the tricky things like with the Impala and the police tape, the DITW money shot, stuff that leaps off the screen--there's not a digicam or a hi-def widget that can match that.
Oh, poor Sammy.
Do they ever mention onscreen that Dean always sleeps nearest to the door?
I think they just generally show it, ita.
The way this episode turned on a dime killed me. Still kills me. I'm still giggling over the piano and the bad tacos and the shower fall (with the shampoo mohawk!) and BOOM, it's obsessed, paramilitary Sammy.
Hey Amy, could you please send me a link to the fanfic you referenced here? My profile addy is good.
So it turns out Previously on Point Dume, the soap parody best known for featuring Enver Gjokaj, also features Lauren Cohan! Together, even.
I think they just generally show it, ita.
Cool, thanks. Just trying to work out what's explicit and what might be fanon. Every time I've noticed, he's been nearer the door, and I can see it's something they do on purpose in production. Just wondering if it's something fans were keeping track of (like the 3.5 or whatever times Castiel has smiled) or something that they've mentioned in interview or commentary.
I haven't yet gotten to the point in the episode where Sam goes hard core, just up to the falling desk death. Oh, the woobiness of Sam is epic. He really should have had more PTSD from this than they gave time to.
Why did I think it was a piano? Too much Road Runner in my past.
The bed thing has been made much of in fanon and fic (and in fic they salt the doors and windows as a matter of course, everywhere) but I'm pretty sure it's just something they do on the show without making it explicit. In every motel room scene I can think of, Dean is nearer the door. God, even in A Very Supernatural Christmas, come to think of it, which is melt-worthy.
Insent, Matt. Let me know what you think.
