Supernatural : The Devil You Know

Yeah. Ehh, whatever. Sometimes Jared and Jensen's "acting skills" are really less than stellar. Way too much scenery chewing tonight. Do not want. Do not like.

Uhm, I liked Crowley saying,  'Sick 'im, boy!' [or however he worded it]

I know that he's dead but I really think the Sam and Dean could use Skip's help getting Lucifer back in his cage. If I remember correctly, Skip helped Billy get out, right? So, I'm thinking he could help getting someone (something) back in a cage. Plus, Skip was awesome even if he was secretly evil.

Right. That casting spoiler.

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE. I love Death already. I want Death to win. This because I'm very biased about things and 'Death' (aka Julian Richings) was on Once a Thief and my God, I fucking LOVED that show like woah.

Yeah, I agree with this - that whole "cage match" meets "Fight Club"-esque scene was...weird. Beyond weird. Weird squared, like totally OOC for both Winchesters.

*shrugs*

I'm sitting here going "Who's Skip? Did she nickname someone Skip and I missed it?" but then I went OH, AND YES! YES, PLEASE.

IDK what Once a Thief was, but he was in Stephen King's miniseries a few years ago, and he was so fucking awesome. And I am 99% SURE...wait, let me google. YES. He was the janitor from Urban Legend. CREEPY JANITOR IN THE TRUCK, REMEMBER? I like.

I like Pestilence more, though, and really want a hell of a lot more with him and am getting frustrated that I'm not getting to hear Trashy talk. So rude.

Is this season over yet?

[identity profile] certainthings.livejournal.com 2010-04-30 02:35 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, something about that scene felt off and then Jared's acting in that scene was not impressing me at all and it was just ... No.

Right? Skip would kick this show up a notch or two ... ten.

Once a Thief was fucking brilliant and had Ivan Sergei and Nicholas Lea and Sandrine Holt (okay, she's not well known but she's fucking pretty) and there was a lot of ass-kicking in the show and it was a John Woo thing and yeah. God, I miss it.

I think I'd enjoy Pestilence if he weren't so disgusting.

Soon, bb. Soon.

I always forget Skip was secretly evil. Because he was evil but then he wasn't and Cordelia went away and all and then I just try and block season 4 out of my mind. So really Skip's just that cool dude who Angel ~duels~ and stuff.

Skip was awesome. When he told Cordelia how awesome she was for choosing the possible demon tail over her awesomely fabulous life, I admit it; I cried.

I...don't know ANY of those people. BUT I DO KNOW JOHN WOO.

Pestilence's grossness is vomit-inducing. I just enjoy the actor SO much. :D

What is that from?

[identity profile] certainthings.livejournal.com 2010-04-30 02:56 am (UTC)(link)
Most of the time I also forget that he was secretly evil.

Bedazzled. Which is, ironically, a movie about a guy who trades his soul to the Devil for seven wishes. It's funnier than shit.

[identity profile] certainthings.livejournal.com 2010-04-30 03:40 am (UTC)(link)
And John Woo is awesome and brilliant so yeah. Good shit.

I mean the show was kind of cheesy (really cheesy) but so enjoyable. There was a movie that the show was based on - with the same characters. You should rent it one day. :nods:

I really like Crowley. Possibly just because I like his growly voice and general eyerolling at the other characters.

Man, it drove me nuts trying to remember what I knew Julian Richings from until I IMDB's him and realized he was in a lot of stuff. What I was thinking of was The Red Violin, though. I do enjoy him.

I enjoy Crowley as well. I hope he sticks around for awhile longer.

I honestly didn't even know his name until I looked it up on imdb. Had to be sure before I went and got all excited. Don't know The Red Violin. Tell me about it - because I'm too lazy to do it myself. :p

Long story short:

Violin is on auction. Samuel L. Jackson is the appraiser. Julian is one of the people trying to buy it. Present tense is interwoven with flashbacks to the history of the violin. Sex & death. Twist ending. Lots of violin music. The red of the violin is both literal and metaphorical.

Did Bobby kiss Crowley. coz... they made a deal, right? XD

Oh, yeah. Lots of making out. :p

Crowley was the highlight this week - I thoroughly enjoy it.

I had to google the guy who'll play Death cos I don't recognise his name, but I recognise his face - but I can't place from where (and imdb isn't helping, dammit!). But I think he's been cast well :D

*agrees* He really was the highlight.

Yeah, I had to look him up cos I had no idea what his name was just to be sure he was who I thought he was. I'm sorry imdb isn't being helpful. *glares at it*
