this? This is my NOT HAPPY FACE

By way of bree_black:

From an interview with Jensen, source here: http://ditta-spn.livejournal.com/18365.html



I’m excited about next season because we’re pushing the “restart” button.

How come? By the way, how is possible to continue after getting the Apocalypse done?

For the creative aspect, we need to understand we just got over a gigantic climax and we’re getting into an unknown territory. The Apocalypse was avoided. That’s why we getting forward a few years and see where the Winchesters are and how it’s their lives. I can’t help, but think of the final scene of “The Hurt Locker” (2009 Oscar winner), when the main character sees himself in front of a shelf with several cereal boxes and doesn’t know what to do. The guy disarms bombs in Iraq, but gets lost on the supermarket! That is not his reality, just like not being a hunter looks like a different world to Dean. All his life was dedicated to one single task, almost like a voluntary slavery, now it’s time to face the monster of real world. That’s totally new to me, through the acting perspective, and I’ll explore a lot more of Dean’s life, that’s why I’m so excited. A kind of introspective tension, like inside monsters.

YEARS???? AS IN MORE THAN ONE? WHAT THE FUCKING FUCK????

I heard that it was 2 years.

I'm trying to keep an open mind. I hated Castiel. Hated the angels with a flaming passion. As far as I'm concerned, anything is better than the last two seasons I sat through. (and yes, I know I'm in the HUGE minority in this)

THIS IS MY D: FACE TOO.

I... am torn. I'm not sure whether I like that or not, but I have the feeling that if Kripke presses fast forward, Dean and Sam will end up getting thrust into hunting again somehow anyway.

[munibunny.livejournal.com]

Wow. That's really interesting that he knows this already. I wonder when he gave this interview... it must have been months ago.

Based on what he says here, I think it'll put to rest what people were most concerned about when he went to Lisa at the end of the ep. Dean's unsettled and not exactly happy. Even after a couple of years, he'll still be lost without his Sammy. Sets up for a pretty big reunion, don't you think?

I'm kind of excited.

Yep, SPN is getting a time jump. They'd been saying a CW show would get one for a while, and it looks like with the reboot SPN is it. I've heard it ranges from 2 years to 5 years. Who knows what the real number will be though. :/

I hope this isn't true:(

[mickeym.livejournal.com]

Meh. Anything longer than a couple of weeks AT BEST is going to make me unhappy :(

[mickeym.livejournal.com]

I didn't mind Castiel (usually), though I'd have happily done without all the rest of the angels. Though Uriel was kind of a cool badass. But anyway.

I'm trying to keep an open mind, too, but all I can think of was Sammy! Under a streetlamp HE PUT OUT, looking in at Dean. *sniffles*

[mickeym.livejournal.com]

*sadfaces with you*

[mickeym.livejournal.com]

But they could end up thrust back into hunting without the passage of YEARS. *sigh*

Okay. Trying to keep an open mind. It's not quite successful at this point. Maybe after the shock's worn off a bit.

[destina.livejournal.com]

I'm not happy either. My exact words to the person I vented to were, WHAT THE FUCK. Sigh.

[mickeym.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I think no matter how much he might try to have the 'apple pie life', at that point in his life (he'd be what, 31 or 32 at the time Sam dove into the pit?) it's kind of too late to settle into normal, without having Sam somewhere close by (in bed with him *koff*) to help him do it.

I just. *Years*. *flails*

[raynedanser.livejournal.com]

Some people think the street lamp was a red herring. Remember, he was SAM when he went into the hole (I keep wanting to call it a Hellmouth, but wrong fandom!), he fell in & took wassisname (the half brother) on purpose. At that point, there was nothing demonic.

Open mind. Openmind. *chants* If I say it enough, it will be true, yeah?

[raynedanser.livejournal.com]

I thought Kripke was backing off for series 6?

[alasse.livejournal.com]

*buts in* from the time-jump blind items by Ausiello I've read about, I think SPN will get the 2 year jump, because it's been confirmed that Brothers & Sisters is getting a time jump, too, and that one's going to be way more substantial - possibly five years. So maybe we'll only get 2 years? SIGH.

[alasse.livejournal.com]

OH, BOY.

I mean. Y'know. Awesome Hurt Locker analogy, Jensen, but I don't want Dean to stare at cereal boxes.... I WANT HIM TO GO GET HIS SAMMY, PLZ&THANK YOU.

[jamesinboots.livejournal.com]

Am I the only one who thought there was already a huuuuuuuge time jump between when Dean goes to see Lisa and when Sam pops back under the light post? I need to watch again, because I think I made a wrong assumption, LOL.

[nyoka.livejournal.com]

Baby, I hope it's only a 2-year jump. I seriously can't handle the thought of FIVE years or more. Seriously.

*clings to you*

[alasse.livejournal.com]

ME TOO. Oh, god. Can we have September NOW, please? (and now we can't even say damn you, Kripke! What should we say? DAMN YOU, GAMBLE&CO.?)

*clings back*

[mickeym.livejournal.com]

Maybe because it's coming hot on the heels of last week's ep is why it's such a shock to me. Plus we've SEEN how well the boys don't cope on their own -- we knew they were unhealthily co-dependent even before Zachariah tossed in the 'erotically'. How the hell are either of them going to deal with life by themselves for any number of years? :(

[rejeneration.livejournal.com]

Ew?

[mickeym.livejournal.com]

I hope not either, but maboheme's comment about a CW show getting a time warp seems to at least back it up. :(

[mickeym.livejournal.com]

We seem to be repeating each other's words a lot lately, don't we? *sigh* I can't remember the last time I used all caps and cussed so much in relation to something about the show. Sheesh.

[kitanabychoice.livejournal.com]

Oh, really? I hadn't heard that bit of news. =/
