Generally incoherent, pls excuse....

SPN killed me. Oh, boys! I feel an urge to make an aspirin run to SD---poor Bobby! And "ass-reamed in Heaven"?! Sounds deliciously filthy. At the moment, Cas, I'd say you deserve it. *coughAnnacough* Unfortunately, I don't have a frame-advance function on my DVR, so I'm not sure who was who in a scene I'm not going to describe because some people are funny about trailers. But I don't *think* it was Bobby....

Star Trek---Holy wow, I want to have Spock's babies! (Sorry, Leonard, but I never had *that* reaction before.) ZQ has always been awesome, but this?! I think some of those big honkin' Dolby explosions were my ovaries. Shazam! The new Kirk was also more to my taste than Shatner. Ditto Uhura---although wtf is with the trend for false eyelashes lately? I noticed it first with poor Malin Akerman in The Watchmen---flutter them and the butterfly effect goes wild---they can practically cause their own weather system.

Plot? Yes, there was one. No, it didn't go into any great moral or ethical debates, didn't debate the human (or Vulcan) condition---it was a sweet thrill ride that produced the usual suspects with panache. For anyone who went in there ignorant of the usual suspects, they were all given solid introductions. Okay, so Chekov looks nothing like Walter Koenig. And there was a Heroes ep that featured someone cast as Hiro's dad who made a much more believable young George Takei. Bones and Scotty, though, were both terrific fun.

Without giving too much away, they really did reinvent the franchise. At least two non-crew canon charecters buy the farm. That and a certain time paradox mean that this is NOT your daddy's Trek---not in a bad way, just different. The f/x were gonzo. I want MORE. It's showing at the IMAX at KSC---I have GOT to see it there!

Headed over to StormValkyrie's house-warming party---otherwise, I probably would've snuck into Wolverine---had a nice time, came home, caught some TV. God, I miss having normal hours! I work a regular shift tomorrow, but have Harper's Island to look forward to.

Technically, tomorrow is supposed to be the full moon. And yet, it felt like Thursday was. What next?!

Definitely got to see Star Trek soon...though Wolverine is first on the list.

Oh yes, SPN was just...ARGH! The boys at each other's throats - literally! *wibbles*

I think Cas is going to rebel at some point. If he'd been completely brainwashed, I'd be more worried, but he's obviously just as conflicted as ever. And I think it'll boil over sooner rather than later.

I need to scrounge up enough cash to see Wolverine and the new Fast and Furious. (Vin Diesel? High-test and high testosterone? OMG, yes!) And Terminator: Salvation looks rather amazing.

SPN---I can't believe how addled Sam's thinking is. He KNOWS he was hallucinating, but he's still going along with it.

I agree that Cas is far from happy with the line he's toeing---and Dean swearing alliegance to Heaven? Umm, I think that's gonna be interesting, because I don't think he's going to take anything as "the Word of God" without some pretty intense PROOF that that's the source of said orders.

I used to be on a Vin kick, but somehow I am 'meh' on him right now. I think TCOR did me in - the silliness overloaded my brainz.

He KNOWS he was hallucinating, but he's still going along with it.

Well, considering both Bobby and the angels apparently want him to, maybe it's not ALL bad.

Dean swearing alliegance to Heaven? Umm, I think that's gonna be interesting, because I don't think he's going to take anything as "the Word of God" without some pretty intense PROOF that that's the source of said orders.

My Hubby joked afterwards that Dean had his fingers crossed behind his back the whole time. ;)

Dean with fingers crossed deserves to be a flash icon.

TCOR didn't do much for me, either, but I've written enough Vin-centric fan-fic that I have a proprietary interest. (Same with Johnny Depp. Much looking forward to his Dillinger!)

One of the things I love about Cas is that Dean can say the most outrageous things to him and Cas does not react. That mouth of his even pisses off demons, but Cas only lifts an eyebrow when Dean starts doing something seriously bad, like dissing God. :D

Man, that scene with Sam and Bobby in the yard just completely broke my heart. Bobby was so clearly torn between loving Sam as Sam and loving him enough to do the right thing for everybody. And I think for a half a second Sam, who was so sick and beaten down, actually hoped he'd kill him and spare him everything that's to come, and then that passed and he took advantage of Bobby, but didn't kill him when he easily could have. They both played that absolutely convincingly.

And JB has beautiful hands. I never noticed that before this episode, but did when he was opening the door to his safe room and when he was lying on the ground after Sam hit him.

The scene in the yard---that sums it up. And what gets me is, when I read that Bobby and Dean were going to be at odds about the interventions, I had the idea that Bobby would be more hard-core and Dean would be more conflicted. Although after his soujourn in Hell, Dean's had a lot of practice ignoring agonized screams.

I'll have to go back and take notice of said hands---they had me by the plaid!kink and I was kind of riveted by that shirt of his.
