The Dee-annotated Supernatural: Wendigo
I totally did not just rewatch it, and therefore am totally not noting down my thoughts on it.
Last week's slick recapThe Male: Yeah, that's a good idea; load and cock the shotgun, then throw it violently down at groin height ( Read more... )

Yes, the color is desaturated. Everything is crisp and blue/green/grey.
Their climaxes do get better. Everything gets better, really; I think they just needed time to settle in.
You're making me want to go back and rewatch the first eps!

Well, obviously I'm interested in him too, but for being the window character, he's really bloody opaque. I'm going to find it hard to get over not fully exploring inside his head regarding the whole business of his girlfriend getting offed in precisely the same manner as his mother, HIS guilt about that, etc. I mean, they might still do that, in fact, I should bloody well hope they do, but I feel like it should have been done in the immediate aftermath. Not to mention the taking up of his old life, how that feels, etc etc etc.
Er, in other words, the things I'd probably write fic about, were I going to do something stupid like write fic. *G*
Basically, I just feel like I can see all of Dean - not explicitly, but the silhouette he makes and the shadow he casts. Sam's not there at all for me. Yet. Of course. *G* You may yet be right.
AHAHA, just remembered one comment that I forgot, which went something along the lines of:
Haley: *kisses Dean* Thanks Sam. * ( ... )

But how? He's trying to be a man about it, and Dean is content to let him have that for now. Don't worry, it doesn't last long. Also, the idea of Sam as the window character is somewhat deceptive, b/c what's new to us is not new to either of them. It's almost like...they share a POV, and they share secrets, and the audience is left waiting for one or the other or both to reveal these things. Sam is opaque in a way Dean is not and omg, I am ready to watch some eps right now.

That said, let me re-examine my feelings at this point in time... I mean, I do have a problem with the way Sam is at the moment. He's just not meshing for me. I think it's that we don't really see that week in Stanford when he's working on the problem itself. It seems like he goes straight from "Shit, my girlfriend's defying gravity and on fire!" to "Daddy will know what to do!" Whereas, actually, he would probably have any knowledge that his father had on the phenomenon (because he seems to have a pretty encyclopedic knowledge of everything else), and having been the key central figure in both manifestations of this, surely even he can see that he's more likely to be able to get to the bottom of it than Papa ( ... )

He's a bit in denial about being a key central figure at the moment. Also, he's never taken the family work as seriously as John has, so he doesn't feel nearly as competent. In the pilot, Sam's surprised that John lets Dean go on hunting trips alone, implying that four years back (when Sam was around) they were never allowed to do so.
And, in a way, running off to college is trying to shuck the adult world of hunting and regain a bit of childhood, so it does sort of fit with the character that he wants to pass responsibility for this on.Yeah, I think he was really running before, and that becomes more clear later on. I don't know if he's trying to ( ... )
