geez, someone's spammy today

There is a Teddy Bear Party over in rustydog's lj. There's tea and cookies to enjoy and a little booze if that's what you fancy.

* *

TV Guide: Would you like to parlay all of that into one of those big-budget sci-fi/comic-book movies?
Ackles: I'm not against it by any means. Comedy, drama, Westerns, sci-fi... it's all fine if the story's compelling and the character is interesting to me. I do like action a lot. The other night there was a big stunt and they brought in my stunt double. When I saw what the stunt was, I was like, "No, no, no. I'm doing this." They'll usually let me do it, unless it's big stuff like a wire-jump off a building — that could be a catastrophe. But [costar] Jared [Padalecki] and I would much rather have a day of action and stunts than a day of the two brothers sitting in a motel room pouring their hearts out. [Laughs]

TV Guide: You realize you have a lot of female viewers because of that emotional stuff, right?
Ackles: This is true. "It's a necessary evil," we like to say.


:blink: Really? Cos I'm watching for the blood, violence and UST. I mean I don't want the boys to hold secrets back because dragging out a storyline like that pisses me off sometimes but I don't want them to sit around and cry about it. Because really, I'm tired of Dean crying.

Too true. BUT...I'm definitely all about the brother-bonding motel room scenes, too. Because it sets my girly bits on fire. Maybe if Dean could just cry into Sam's crotch it would be better?

I like that. Or if they could punch each other a lot with blood flying and tears flying while they talk about their feelings. And then they make out.

I see this position popping up on lj a lot lately but holy crap not me. I would be content if the entire show consisted of drab lighting, a motel room, and tense dialogue. I'm getting excited just thinking about it.

Re: Dean crying.

This is where I differ greatly from fans. I, uh, don't want Dean happy. The only thing that makes Dean happy is Sam and I don't know if Sam could be completely content just on the road hunting with his brother. I do however think that he would choose to stay with Dean and do just that. But Dean would always sense the duty in Sam and thus would never really accept it. I either want the show to end really ambiguously--just the boys riding off to the next job--or I want them to die saving the world. But no giving up the job, no settling down and starting a family. And I want Dean to cry at least two more times this season.

I don't mind those scenes but I like the violence. I'd be happier if there was more fisticuff fighting rather than guns involved.

I'm not real fussy on horny happy Dean but just content Dean? I like that guy. And I do want him to cry some this season - heck I'm surprised he hasn't already, but overall I'm a bit 'Ooh, Dean's crying again? Must be Thursday.'

Can I be tired of something and still want it? Hmm.

[fiddleyoumust.livejournal.com]

Dean cries more than a 13 year old girl. For real. But I wouldn't mind some snuggling. :P

I don't really know how Sam became known as the emo one, because Jesus Christ on a crust Dean is always angsting about something.

[certainthings.livejournal.com]

RIGHT?!

I want fighting with fists that leads to I'm sorrys and patched booboos and snuggling.

[fiddleyoumust.livejournal.com]

Mostly I just want them both to bleed more often because in the last episode when Sam was all bloody? Nnnnngggghhhh that was hot. Really hot. And though I cant think of a specific instance at the moment, I know Dean is hot covered in blood too.

And then yes. There can be kissing and patching up and hand grabbiness (it's a word!) and all that stuff.

No no no, you're wrong. You're a woman, so naturally you're only interested in the fluffy emotional stuff. None of the disgusting violence or the scary ghost stories. That stuff is only there for the male viewers. You're only watching for Dean's tears, because as a woman you can't possibly be interested in anything other than emotions and the boys sharing their feelings and talking about their relationship. That's the only reason you're watching.

(acording to TV network people who seem to think that all viewers fall into the categories of "women = emotional/romantic fluff" and "men = violence and gore")

[certainthings.livejournal.com]

Hahahaha. ILU!

I hadn't realized that but yes, those are the exact reasons I watch. I cannot wait for tonight, I hope there's lots of feelings and emotions involved.

[mooyoo.livejournal.com]

They might as well just get rid of the whole supernatural thing altogether, since the only reason we females are watching is to see the brothers pouring theri hearts out to each other.

(which I do like, but if all I wanted in my TV show were angsty characters having long emotional discussions, I'd turn my attention to soap operas - though *cough* I have been getting into As The World Turns recently. I blame the adorable gay boy storyline).

[jaimsie.livejournal.com]

But don't throw him onto a table cause he won't do those stunts.

[certainthings.livejournal.com]

I think I missed something.

[jaimsie.livejournal.com]

Not Dean Winchester/Jensen Ackles

[ms-nerd.livejournal.com]

Last time Padalecki did a "stunt" he broke his hand. Do they really want him jumping off of buildings?

[certainthings.livejournal.com]

That still makes me laugh. It almost seems that anything that's not walking is considered a stunt these days.

I'd like to see Ackles jump off a building. Might be kind of neat.

[apey1013.livejournal.com]

I imagine there would be a lot of flailing. ;)

[earlofcardigans.livejournal.com]

Dude. Word.
Bring on the motherfucking gore. Seriously.
Blood and violence are two of my favorite things.
Followed closely by boykissing.
Which we also don't get enough of. *is an angel. rilly*

:high fives:

[earlofcardigans.livejournal.com]

Why should we always want to watch Lifetime Stupid Network for Women?
Especially when Bruce Willis is blowing shit up and Jason Statham is driving cars off roofs and shooting people in the face?
If given a choice, I'd watch something with Jet Li over something with Sandra Bullock any day.

Come on, obviously if you've got a vagina all you care about is tearful soul-baring emotion-sharing. DO NOT ARGUE WITH THE HOLLYWOOD-TYPES, THEY HAVE PROVEN THIS AND EVEN IF YOU THINK YOU DISAGREE OBVIOUSLY YOU JUST DON'T KNOW YOURSELF WELL-ENOUGH.

[certainthings.livejournal.com]

Hahhaaha. I'm repenting as we speak er, type.

[apey1013.livejournal.com]

Yeah...I loves me some manpain there, Ackles, but I'm pretty sure during the opening sequence of "The Kids Are Alright" I was squealing "GOOOOOORRRRREE!!!" at the top of my lungs and bouncing with joy. Also, if they're supposedly on the internets how come they managed to miss all of the fangirling and GLEE over the boys in action!mode? I likes me some Action!Sammy beating up SWAT guys, I do.

[certainthings.livejournal.com]

You know that is a very fucking good point. I'd really like to know where They (the Supernatural folks) are hanging out. I think they know a few places on LJ but I just have this feeling that they're more on message boards where the 14 year olds are shouting 'Dean's so cuuuuuuute.' or whatever they say. Because where I hang out? There's very little, 'Oh, I love it when they share their emotions.'

[shimmeryelf.livejournal.com]

That "emotional stuff" comment they made kind of pissed me off.

I'm the one yelling for more blood and guts and giggling with glee when horrible things happen to people. On the show that is. lol

[certainthings.livejournal.com]

That's how I watch the show too.
