Yeah, the pizza comment came just as they arrived at the warehouse. Not scenes and scenes before. Just moments. Like he had it planned that he had a pre-established reason to suddenly "discover" death at the pizzeria, because he was satisfying a craving after the warehouse turned out to be a bust.

Heh. Hadn't thought about the fact that they've cheated death several times (which is ridic of me, because it's kind of... what they do.) Would've been funny if Dean had cocked an eybrow when Death said that, but JA was playing it so without false bravado that I guess that would've been out of place. Still would have made me laugh. Like if he had started to challenge the assertion and then thought better of it. I watched that scene over and over for Death's lines and perfrormance. Just fantastic.

P.S. I hate posting from my phone.

You can never truly trust a Mark Shepard character.

No, you can't. It's fantastic!

I still can't stop seeing Supernatural fanvids in my head. Oddly, this time I decided to see if there were any already made to these songs, and there were! Unfortunately, the ones I found are dreadful. Not just different from the vids in my head (I'm in an apocalypse frame of mind), but so so bad.

The Killer's "All These Things That I Have Done" gave me three immediate hits. After enduring a minute of pain for each, I skipped to the bridge to see how they interpreted it. One was more nothingness, one was sex, the other was more nothingness. "I've got soul but I'm not a soldier" x 10 I wanted to see awesome clips of all the hunters that have come and gone, starting with Sam, Dean, Bobby, and on the climax Ellen and Jo, and in between every other hunter we've met and lost.

Now I just feel cheap for wanting to put this on my personal Supernatural fanmix.

Whew. Just surfaced from reading the comments on the architeuthis author's note for that smoking fic. He's absolutely fascinating, and the comments on the notes and the fic itself are really interesting, some of the most I've read on fic I've enjoyed. I think he really clicked on the D/C relationship, and what we've seen this season has been the gen casefic version of the intensity that he wrote.

Julie, I run most of the songs on my playlist through a vid test for my favourite shows, and SPN usually wins. Which makes me laugh, because of how much Dean would hate most of my music. But not all...I think some of my Alice Cooper is begging for someone with a good touch.

Ah, well.

Canonically, have they ever told us what horrible emo stuff Sam likes to listen to? All his music with feeeeeelings?

Which makes me laugh, because of how much Dean would hate most of my music

Yeah, I don't see Dean liking Gomez, Will Derryberry, Citzen Cope, or Matchbox 20. But maybe Sam would like it. Didn't they have Sam's iPod playing some country pop when Dean came back from hell?

But there's amazingly so many songs talking about endtimes and brothers and being tired... no other show has done this to me. Never wanted to vid Farscape or Buffy or Due South or Doctor Who, but Supernatural, that at times I have been apathetic to, keeps popping up in my playlists. There must be something primal about it that speaks to me like Life and Firefly did.

So, this archituethis guy, from what little there is to be gleaned, absolutely intrigues and fascinaes me. He's the guy I was talking about earlier that had disappeared from LJ back in 2009. I want to poke him and rave, but am also afraid that it's one of those instances of someone withdrawing themselves from the scene on purpose, or, more horribly, involuntarily.

Oh, and going back a bit before the SHOW! overwhelmed further discussion, I think the reason a couple of us recc'd his fic is because you recc'd Thursday's Child, and strangeandcharm recc'd it in her notes somewhere in her LJ.

And while I'm here, Morgana's post about Dean being Jim Morrison made me larf and larf. I love the dude, but so much Yes. I had a Tinkerbell Doctor moment, but with less motts. Especially with Castiel all but transferring his belief in his heavenly father to Dean. Because I'm still hopeful that this pans out in some strange way that isn't lame.

Well, male slash writer! I want to stare and stare and stare. And that's before you get to his actual authorial personality, which seems fascinating.

Castiel all but transferring his belief in his heavenly father to Dean

All but? He totally did. I think he switched them out before he found out God wasn't playing anymore. When he went against his garrison, I think he was firmly fixating on Dean as substitute leader, even though he still had freaky angel mojo. He's not an archangel. He needs a general. And that's the thing Dean has, why Sam who might be book smarter and bigger and stronger will keep looking at him first--because he knows how to give people orders.

Of course, his motivation can be compromised, but still. He's Daddy Winchester's good boy.

This is destina's post about "Two Minutes to Midnight." I'm not sure that I buy her analysis of how all Four Horsemen so neatly and conveniently played their parts in moving Dean and Sam towards their destinies; I think her view is a little too antiseptic. But it's worth looking at for the screencaps and pictures of the horsemen's rings and alchemy symbolism. It's an intriguing side issue to think about. She also talks about the use of color (I've read other meta posts about the continuing use of color throughout the show - the use of red, yellow, and blue, and so on).

Futoncritic sez:

"Supernatural" is heading to Friday nights as repeats of the series will follow "Smallville" at 9:00/8:00c starting May 28.

Said news comes on the heels of today's announcement that encores of the short-lived CBS drama "Moonlight" will assume "Supernatural's" regular Thursday, 9:00/8:00c time period on June 3.

The move will undoubtedly fuel speculation that "Supernatural" will permanently take residence there for its sixth season.
