Big Pounce

And so weird that Misha was thrown around and got fluids all over him, Jared however was so clever that he superglued himself to the floor so He did not get thrown where he was outside the bathroom. This is true, you can still see that plane has a pair of very large shoes stuck outside the bathroom door /s

Hang on, what did misha say about Jared again?? That moron...

Misha previously told two stories:

He forgot to lock the door on the plane bathroom and Jared opened it and took a picture, so he flushed Jared's phone (told on IOU with Rosenbaum).

He was on a different plane in the bathroom when there was some turbulence and it got ... messy (told at an earlier convention).

This past weekend, he conflated those two incidents and further changed the details so that while he was in the bathroom, Jared somehow convinced the pilot to do a zero gravity dive to take a picture of him covered in fluids. That is ... insane. Both because he already told those stories and the internet is forever so it's obvious he's full of shit, and because no pilot would ever fucking do that even IF Jared would ask because it is insanely dangerous.

Here's a link to a reblog of the previous post with links to videos of both the previous stories and the bullshit he said this weekend: [X].

i've got the STRONGEST FEELINGS about this man's eyes 😫😫😫

I'm curious. Reblog this if you know how to cook

I don’t even care if it’s macaroni, ramen or those little bowls you stick in the microwave. Please, I need reassurance that most of the population on tumblr WOULDN’T STARVE TO DEATH if their parents couldn’t fix them food or they couldn’t go out to eat.

Such fluffy hair!

Have a fantastic Sunday guys 🌻🐝

While I've revisited eps to make gifs, I haven't done an attentive rewatch in many years. So, I rewatched the pilot. The boys look so young 👶😄. There's a ghost story, or maybe there are two ghost stories. One is the obvious, the woman in white. The other is Sam being haunted by his past, with Dean like a link to an older era. He pulls back the curtain to an American Gothic horror tale, with his vintage car, and vintage cassette tapes, and vintage persona. Sam is the modern young man, about to head to the future, but just when he thought he was out...

I wouldn't say Dean pulled him back in. That gentle tug wasn't enough to do it, in fact. Dean has bravado, but is surprisingly soft-spoken and tentative in the way he watches for Sam's reactions like a hawk. Even when he pushes Sam on the bridge, his eyes are wide and hurt, and his hushed, "Don't talk about her like that" is not so much angry as it is a plea.

Sam seems completely self assured. He's worldly, smart, decisive. I feel as viewers we're following him from the respectable suburban world to the bad place. With John leaving a vacuum behind him, literally the empty motel room, both boys seem to fill that space -- Sam immediately connecting with John's research, while Dean dons the mantle of John's protective coat. Pleasing metaphors of inheritance.

Speaking of inheritance, Jessica's death in the same manner that killed his mother is what pulls Sam back in. He's now on the same path as John. He's the one who commands the "we" in "We got work to do." Another pleasing story parallel.

Dean is the older brother, but I'm always struck that at this stage he's almost delicate. The eyelashes, the bracelets, the too big jacket. He's positioned in this trope as the bad boy, yet Jensen always has an inherent good guy quality. He's so funny, but it's like a vaudeville act. He's insanely charming and devil-may-care, but you get the sense he's also down on his luck. He's odd and fun and intriguing.

The desaturation and shadows of the cinematography never get old. J2 are beautiful and immediately as watchable as Mulder and Scully. There are some stunning women and recognizable character actors. Of course some of it seems dated, now even more retro than intended lol, yet the Americana parts are mythic and hold up as a motif. Bonus points for including a public library for research. They're searching for a shade of a father; they can't go home, there be ghosts; home is an empty husk of trauma. Still love this pilot.
