From your write-up, I get the sense you've been to several of the cons. I'm going to my first one in Chicago in October... any hints/tips/things you wish someone had told you to share with a newbie?? *flashes desperate face at you*
Bwah! The thought of Miley Cyrus playing Jared is absolutely hysterical. I expect to see people writing fic playing off that line soon. XD
Jared seriously needs some barettes or something. That hair is way fluffy! Also rather ugly in that growing out stage, where it's too short to tie back, but too long to not bother you.
lol, oh Jared, the fangirls knew Ruby was manipulative from the start, back in S3. We actually remember what the in-world rules of the show are.
The teeth totally fit - Miley = Jared. I couldn't believe the sheer volume of Jared's hair. It was huge!
I feel a little bad that he must feel required to support the whole horriblehorriblehorrible Ruby 2.0 arc because he married the actress, when it was just plain...awful, in every single way. Bad actress, bad writing, bad everything. The story arc had potential, I'll admit that; it could have been fantastic, but the end result was sooooo disappointing. How any of the showrunners felt it was good storytelling just amazes me. My own opinion, of course!
lol, I just remembered this one crack fic where Sam's hair and Christian's hair fell in love and twined together. Chris's hair is much better tho.
I...well, not liked, I doubt we were supposed to like her...liked the concept of her best in S3 - she was just ambigous enough to be interesting. But bu S4, you really have to wonder why Dean didn't stab her already when it has obvious she was hokey. When he finally did, WOW that was satisfying. I bet Jared would be disturbed by how many fangirls love watching his wife die onscreen. XD
Thanks for sharing your con experience! :-) I wonder if there's one this May/ June cuz my sister is hoping to attend one while she is in the country - any tips on where I can check for that kind of info? :-)
The next American one is at the end of August, as far as I know. You could always check the Creation Entertainment site. They are the only ones to handle the SPN Cons (in America) now.
Oops, I suppose I should clarify and say the next one is in North America. It's actually taking place in Vancouver, where they film. But it's a good one to go to because you can take location tours, if you get tickets early enough for that.
Great recap, but may I offer a few corrections? I know I'm a huge dork, but I knew the Geena Davis/Susan Sarandon reference as soon as Jensen said it (sooner than Jared, I'd bet). I believe it was gilligan who didn't get it until later, but it's possibly due to lack of coffee.
You forgot to mention that, during breakfast and J2's Q&A, Jensen maintained eye contact with me for all three of my questions (really!). Thought I'd mention it, since I'm a total attention whore. (Also, my first question was about Dean's necklace. *sob*)
Also, I kind of loved Jensen walking offstage when Jared "knew" what brand of hairdryer he used and then mentioned using the diffuser. Comedy gold, those two.
Though Jensen refused to personalize my poster, I was so glad Mark Pellegrino was game to write the pick up line instead. Totally fitting for one who looks like a serial killer. ;-)
It doesn't matter if it was gilligan. For this particular recap, you'll always be the one that was wrong. You play the role of the "villain" in this piece. Heh.
Someone in the room brought the ring up, right? Or did I imagine that entire explanation of why it's gone? Memory does get fuzzy after a week.
About a day after I posted this, I remembered the hair question was what made Jensen get the lei. I was struggling to remember why in the heck he came out bedecked in virginal flowers.

Anyway, thanks for the report! :)
