Asylum - The Stage Talks

May 12, 2008 14:31

Onto the Stage Talks.

I'm just so glad I was feeling upto Saturday and was able to enjoy the panels...At least what I saw of them. With my photo ops and autograph slots all on the Saturday, I spent a lot of time dashing in and out of the panels. Completely missed Travis Wester's panel (Harry Spengler in Hell Hounds and Ghostfacers).

Memory is a might fuzzy on the panels but will do my best to recall what I can. At least there are loads of other reports out there, I'm sure with a lot more detail than I can remember.


Jim and Sterling







- They were asked about pranks being played on them. Jim once again re-told the one about Jared in the hospital scene in 'Dream A Little Dream of Me'.
- Jim (pic above) revealed a t-shirt he was wearing. He'd worn something similiar at another con (which he said he didn't know the meaning of) and he decided to wear this one that says 'I Read Bobby/You'. Sure that made the fan fic writers happy :D
- Sterling said that the boys love to do things to each other. Jim laughed and said 'Not those kind of things. lol
- Jim calls the boys JJs
- Sterling was very funny, at times making comments about his head rolling.

Samantha





- Sam had literally just arrived before her panel. Not had time to freshen up or change clothes, but was still very lively and entertaining.
- Got the impression she did not like the new female characters. And hadn't watched any of season 3 because of it. She said it was like watching your ex boyfriend with his new girlfriend. Too painful. But she would get over it and probably watch one day.
- She liked the idea of Bobby and Ellen getting together but would have preferred Dean and Ellen...Even pitched it to Kripke who said no. She then suggested prehaps even just a dream sequence. Kripke no lol.
- She gets on best with Jensen when on set, as they have the same sense of humour, taste in music etc. I don't know if it was just me, but I think Sam has a little crush on Jensen :D Who can blame her!
- Said working BSG was very different to working on SPN, because on BSG it's such a huge cast compared to SPN.
- Really hopes Ellen will be back. But she doesn't like the idea of Ellen becoming a Demon. She'd really hate that. Doesn't want Ellen going bad.
- One of her favourite scenes to film was with Jared, when they have a moment together. And also the fight scene with Jo, when she tells Jo what really happened to her father.
- Told how Jared loved to get hold of this air gun thing, I think...It gets super cool if released continuously. Jared would stand behind someone, like her and slowly release the air in it, on her bum. She said at first you wouldn't notice anything, then suddenly searing pain, like a bee had suddenly stung you. You'd turn around to find Jared standing behind you laughing.
- Talked about Ash dying in the Roadhouse and even she said that anything is possible. All we saw was a body wearing Ash's watch. Who said it had to be Ash. He could have given the watch to someone before it happened. Anything is possible in Supernatural.

Chad





- Was wearing some super cool maroon nail polish. He claimed because he thought we'd be a wild bunch or something like that.
- Talked about the naked scene, when he opens the door to Sam and Dean. He wasn't fully naked, but was wearing this pouch kind of thing. Although he did want to go fully naked, just to see the reactions of Jared and Jensen.
- He did the 'All Business Upfront and a party in the back' line in Ash style.
- Someone asked him who Ash would do, Dean or Sam? Bless him, he was taken aback by that, but played with it and said Ash would totally do both, because they were so different. Dean all strong and Sam all kind and caring. LOL!
- He has four tattoos, one on his forearm, of a breast cancer ribbon, one on his shoulder, one somewhere I can't remember and one on his hip.
- If Ash had lived he would have loved to see him go on the road on hunt. He could totally see Dean and Sam being trapped in a fight with a demon and Ash comes bursting through the door with a shot gun, blows the demon away and then just turn and walk away (pic above is him demonstrating). Have to say that would have been so cool to see!
- He was asked if he was friends with Jared and Jensen off set. Loved his honesty here, he said not really friends. He said it was all fun and that working on set, but pretty much didn't see them outside of that. That it was just work. So, basically no.
- He was also asked for his thoughts on the pending Actors Strike. He said he was sick of it. All he wants is to be able to work.
- Talked about Myspace and this friendly rivalry he has going with his best friend Berkley where they try to constantly one up each other on myspace. He said for everyone to go on Myspace and then leave rude messages on Berkleys Myspace page.

Katie and Lauren







- They hang out as friends in real life
- They auditioned for each others roles
- Both totally love playing the bad asses bitches.
- They were asked who'd they do out of the cast. They laughed and said each other.
- Lauren went on to say, she's not gay but she'd totally be gay for Catherine Zeta Jones, who she says is all 100% woman.
- Asked who they loved to torment most as their characters Dean or Sam, both said Dean, because he fights back and is all stony faced and feisty. They said Sam was too sweet and nice, I gathered didn't want to pick on him lol.
- When asked about the 'wet dream' scenes that Sam had of him and Bela, she was asked if she purposefully ever messed up any of the takes, just so she could kiss Jared more. Laughed and said she might have done. Serious then she said Jared was probably the more nervous of the two of them and was being all sweet and protective asking if she was comfortable with this. Bless him! He's just a big softy!
- They were asked if they could play any other character in the show, who would they want to be. Lauren said Bobby and Katie said Gordon. lol
- Lauren admitted she was very nervous about how fans would take to Bela. (With good reason as it turns out).

And that is all I can remember. Memory like a fuzzy brush!

And that is all. I left on Sunday morning. Still not well and tired, I wanted to get on the road before I was too exhausted to drive. So I'll be having to check out others reports and pics for Sunday.

All in all a fun time. Was great hanging out with friends, although sometimes less with others. Cons are crazy, so busy doing things at different times but was still great to see you all. *hugs*
