Writing From the Inside

You can read my review of the Supernatural episode “Metamorphosis” at pinkraygun.com. Thank you!

An excerpt:

The brothers go to talk to Jack, who is in his garden, doing garden stuff. Typically, Sam introduces them both, and then they start to explain what’s going on. In this scene, unlike the earlier one in the Impala, the technique of skipping through the already-known facts about the rougarou make sense and saves time. The talk, naturally, does no good, except to give me more lovely close-ups of the boys, again in natural light. There’s lots of Sam’s lovely skin, and his noble brow furred in concentration, as well as tons of Dean, with his five o’clock shadow and his bright, green eyes. Which, as I’m sure you’ll understand, rather distracted me away from the dialog, which, of course, was the point of the scene and stuff.

An excerpt:

I particularly loved the scene where Dean talks to Mary in the living room, where she’s going through her stack of LPs, and didn’t that bring back memories? (You kids, LPs were what we had before CDs, okay? The fragility of which imbued the music on the black vinyl with more meaning and value than a cold, technical CD ever could. And they sounded better. Ask anyone.) Dean wants to know what John is like, and I applaud Show for asking this question because while my fangirl brain could make stuff up, it was nice to get it from the source. And yeah, Nice is the word to use here, apparently John was sweet and kind and romantic and dreamy, and believed in the happily ever after. Mary’s face glows when she tells Dean this, and Dean’s look of shock and surprise is very good and amusing, because yeah, this is a 180 from The Dad that I know and love and bring up as often as I can.

An excerpt:

“Hendrickson provides me with the Tossing of the Sam and there is, really, nothing I like better than to see the boy get a bit of abuse because he takes is so beautifully. I think the reason I enjoy it so much is that I feel that each and every time it happens to him, Sam is completely shocked, SHOCKED that he’s being beaten up yet again. It’s almost as if he still believes somehow that the world is a good and gentle place, and is completely unaware that the Universe is out to get him and slam him against a sink (or a wall) at every available opportunity. I consider this sense of surprise and indignation and disbelief to be one of the last bastions of Sam’s innocence, so I’m always up for a demonstration. “

An excerpt:

“The moment where he stands at his own graveside amidst a circle of fallen trees that seems eerily similar to Tunguska, shoulders rolled forward, eyes narrowed against the brightness, is an excellently done bit of filming. There is no wind, no sound at all, adding to the creepy, other-worldly feel to this scene. Plus, Show didn’t rush it, because DEAN wouldn’t rush it, he’s going to take in his surroundings before he makes a single move. It gave off the odd feeling that maybe he was the last man on earth, which of course brought up the next important question: Where is Sam?”

You can read my review of the Supernatural episode “Heart” at pinkraygun.com. Thank you!

An excerpt:
“The boys separate to do watchful things; Sam watches over Madison all night, making me wonder when he sleeps. Dean is still watching Kurt, which we see in a very atmospheric scene with a full moon, sweeping clouds, gothic overtones, and Dean, with one leg propped up, standing in an alley. For all it’s so short, it really is a beautiful little clip, and always makes me think that Dean’s unafraid because he knows he’s almost the most dangerous thing in the city. Plus there’s that whole waiting element; as boys, they probably learned patience early on, and I wonder what Dean’s thinking of here as he watches, on sentry duty through the darkness.”

You can read my review of the Supernatural episode “Roadkill” at pinkraygun.com. Thank you!

An excerpt:

“There’s lots of looks and tips of the head, silent exchanges between the brothers as they try to convince Number Six to let them take her out of there. (There’s lots of flashing of flashlights, as well, in this ep, always sexy, and it starts in the first scene where the boys are looking for Number Six’s car. Which they can’t find.) Personally, I wouldn’t get into a stranger’s car on a BET, let alone with these two characters, because if I didn’t know them, I would be totally freaked to meet them on the road like this, and run very far, very fast in the opposite direction. It just adds to the creepiness of this ep that Number Six does not, no, instead she gets into the back seat of the black (totally AWESOME) and scary car with two guys well over the six foot limit, and allows herself to be driven off.”

An excerpt:

“Sam decks Dean with several verbal punches about the fact that Dean might have to actually waste him one day and how DARE he keep this from Sam. Once again he’s been placed in a need-to-know status, making him feel the littlest, most useless member of Team Winchester. I imagine that most of his anger is for The Dad, at this point, and who could blame him. He’s just been told several awful, awful things one of which is that he, poor boy, is bound to die. We might as well string him up and call him Tom Dooley as to let him wander around wondering when his deathdate will be and when big brother will deliver the killing blow. Plus, he must be remembering when he flat out asked The Dad whether The Dad knew anything about what the YED had to say about sidekick kids. In return, The Dad flat out LIED to Sam, and although Sam should be used to this type of prevarication, it’s obvious that it still hurts. Hurts bad enough to want to hurt back; in his eyes, you can see it.”

An excerpt:

“Oh, and then, even better is what follows. Really. This is the best caricature of Sam ever done ever, bar none. Padalecki always rocks at the comedy, and here he goes full out, using his body and his face, and it’s wonderful. And the stuff he says, even though it’s Dean telling the story to make Sam look bad, it doesn’t make it any less true. He’s got tons of emo stuff to say to the other frat boy like, “I acknowledge your pain!” (as if no one else in the world has or possibly could), and THEN, as he hugs the guy, he says, all screwed up, worried, and angsty, “You’re too precious for this world!” I fall off my chair EVERY time.”
