Eric Kripke

Eric Kripke : "When we started casting, we had archetypes in mind, which were Han Solo and Luke Skywalker. We were really looking for Sam to be empathetic, kind, and likeable, and really the audience surrogate. The person who the audience would most see themselves as and really carry the story through their eyes. And that required a really unique likeability. For Dean, we were looking for Han Solo. We were looking for devil-may-care, charismatic, a little rough around the edges, a little edgy, says things that are not always the kindest thing, as long as they're funny. And that was really what we started out with."

Love Story! 815 "Man's Best Friend With Benefits."

As season 8 has been in good form and back to the old time favourite in modern day so far !
 Until 815"Man's Best Friend With Benefits."DEAN REALLY DOESN’T LIKE WITCHES — A police officer named James (guest star Christian Campbell), who turned to witchcraft after working a case with Sam and Dean, is plagued by nightmares in which he murders innocent people. However, when the murders actually happen, Sam and Dean are called in by James’s “familiar” (guest star Mishael Morgan) to help -- but the brothers aren’t sure they want to save a witch.

 John Showalter directed the episode written by Brad Buckner & Eugenie Ross-Leming.

She just wants belly rub !
Like we all expecting as we call fill up episode. Which we know will be monster of the week and a bit more of main story line to move on to next week episode. After I saw tweets and heard from quite a few fans. I think this episode not up what we expected. (I don't think such a thing called worse SPN episode EVER!EXIT!) Here my verdict !
It's a love story Yes Unusual one but it is ! We found out more about " familiar " is the witch who could choose to be seen either animals or human ! I would love to see different kind of animals could be fun ! But probably time and cost ! We all know not cheap ! Even though they know they 're not suppose to have more than companionship. Which led them to trouble ! Even though the episode is not up to recent great episode (story wise !) But I want to give credit for the team of location , art dept and vfx which lift standard so high week after week ! Also I want to mentioned to congrats casting dept which so incredible not just this episode but over many years ! You guys are Awesome !


                                                      Love the Witch Bar" AKA Danger Bar "


 According to the interview with Michael Morgan who played Portia They cast the dog before her and they are right ! She's done a great job to act between human version without not too obvious ! A lots of awkward humours in this one which we know Jensen knows how dean could react very well !

 

                                                      He's so like cat !! Don't you think?


Another awesome work from VFX team


 I don't know I just feel it could have done more funny moments ! What do you think? I always love the Bros's moment !

 
                                        Finally Dean realize teamwork is the KEY!
                                  But do you think should Sam tell Dean the truth ?

 But we've been here many times since Swan Song I know the point is person could change but not so much we are who we are ! We all know Sam and Dean so well ! But this time , after all this years of conflicts and hurtful and dramas they have been through. I hope they could get pass this and not hanging so long ! Keep secret from each other will added arguing and break the trust for both. I think for sometimes we've have been through this journey with them and for us and them sake ! I want to see them kick it in the ass with a bit of fun on the way ! From now on please writers . It's must be the longest review Ever for me ! Lol But I speak my mind ! Ha ha Over all will watch the episode again and I look forward to next episode which will move along story a bit more before we have to face agony of long time to wait for more .

No Place Like Home 814 " Trial and Error"

First I need to congrats to directing debut by Kevin Parks. He did a great job. To read more about Kevin here http://oursupernaturalstory.blogspot.co.nz/2013/02/the-directors-of-supernatural-kevin.html
It's opening this episode with days after days of poor Kevin ( played by Osric Chau ) His living condition is pretty bad.
         
         
I don't feel so good about that It might be from lack of sleep, food or normal human health condition. But could be the way of how the tablet works ?? I just hope Please keeps KEVIN!and DON"T DIE!!
After the boys move in to what they called Bat Cave. It looks like they settled really well. We haven't seen Sam's room yet. But this week we've definitely seen Dean's room !
As we could expect Dean's room which full of his fave & fun with emotional touched ( so sweet !) Yup him and his Mum picture which we didn't see before

                               
Note : This picture has been photoshop specially for this scene. In this pic is REAL little Jensen. Isn't he so CUTE !?
I think this scene is big deal for Dean. for his whole life No place which he could called home after Mary died. To do that It means he accepted this place to be his home.
Now we check it out Dean's room.He sure can make the bed !

Another fact we know from this episode, Dean can COOK! and good one. Some who didn't watch it from start Might not know Dean is the one who looked after both Dad & Sam.While they used to live in the hotels from early year and now! nothing change much! I like the scene which Dean?Jensen on BBQ Looking good ! U think

Finally, great news from Kevin  He found out how to close the Gate of Hell ?? Really ?
But God have to test them Who would be the chosen one ?
First Trial they need to kill Hell Hound and bedding its blood ! Not a easy task. Dean acted as easy to do! My thought about his reaction about Hell Hound. It look like he's not scare them at all ! I think underneath he is. I think he plan all along if any chance and risk their lives. He believe it's his duty to do it and keep Sam safe. Which it so sad. but It's really Dean we know and love. After Sam accidentally got the first task done by killed and bedded in Hell Hounds blood. He try to convince Dean He's the one had been chosen. It's the one of best scene of this season. Jared 's so good and Jensen without say any word. Well done!

 I think it's smart to have Sam be the chosen one we'll see more dramas for Dean as he'll try to protect Sam as we've seen in the early season. But interesting  how the writers will took us and not look like copy them self ! Sure will not end up so well at the end of season ! So stock up tissues!

Dean's Funny Moment

 I love this episode ! We got monster of the week. More importantly its brings out emotions as their best of the two brothers. They open how they feel which is a good thing we've been hope for for a while! FINALLY!

Carry On My Wayward Sons 813 'Everybody Hates Hitler'

I wouldn't say this is review or recap !
I know I've been so late with worked on other stories on this blog. That's my excuse !
'Everybody Hates Hitler' the name of this episode told we will expect involve Nazis
Here what I like about this episode ;
1. This episode written by Ben Edlund which i expect awesomeness and it is ! I love him too !!
( sorry I have lots of love for the team he he )



2. I like he opening scenes. again Well done Jerry and team. What could I say I love him !! ha ha This guy is genius. Always impressed with him and his team working real hard episodes after episodes !


3. I like The Key. Because it one of important object in this season for sure. And the key box is so Cool!

4. Now we get to explore new set which will be new house for the brothers for a long while I guess! ( according to Bob Singer "they need a place not just for us to be able to have a set to shoot on, but I think the boys actually need a place where they can decompress, have their bromance moments. The other sets we’ve had, they’re not the biggest. When you see this set, you realize they have lots of room to move around and there’s lots of really cool things in there. So Adam [Glass] came up with this idea and we really latched onto it immediately. It’s a very expensive set, so we’re going to be using it. "
I'll explore into this story. and will post on this blog hopefully soon! In the meantime I love it thanks again Jerry and Adam.


 5.The Golem  (played by John DeSantis) Don't you love this new monster who has been created by the rabies to fight Nazis in the old day And now the Golem belongs to grandson Aaron (played by Adam Rose). I like scenes when Golem not so happy with Aron. He want Aaron to take charged and responsibilities. in the end Aaron realize it's his part to continue fighting.


     With  this size who's not freaking out !
6. Funny Moment ! This scene below is definitely made me smile !

                   
 7. Since started season 8 SPN VFX Team has done a great job Which included this episode ! Well Done! Team




8. Now we get to conclusion which is important message. Aaron take charge of The Golem and realize like it or not it's his job to continue what his grandfather started. Which made Sam and Dean feel the same.

                                                   Source  http://samandrield.tumblr.com/

9. But more than anything I like how the brothers treat and care for each other ! It might because of home feel?  I know bat cave will play important part of these two. I like them to get back to be and behave like brothers again.




That's happy ending for me. ( for now ! )

John DeSantis who played Golem is also used to work with Jensen in dark Angel and also played soldier ghost in Ghostfacers.
