this girl said my sweater wasnt “christmassy enough” and i got really mad so i drew everyone in it
One time we had missionaries over at our house, and my Mom mentioned the fact that there is a Star Wars religion. One of them got so excited that he clapped his hands together and blurted out:
“I WANT TO JOIN!!!!!!!!!!"
The other missionary gave him a surprised look, and then, I kid you not, two seconds later it started pouring and hailing outside.
The other missionary just glared at him and went: “Look at what you’ve done.”
The Gang takin’ a cruise in the Millenium Falcon! Thought I’d put them all together. I have plans for another movie set too, but I’m not going to say what.
When I was little I had a Luke Skywalker action figure when I was four years old I distinctly remember holding my little Luke Skywalker action figure and telling myself that I would always remember this moment and I still remember it is one of those few that are seared into my memory. Then when they were doing the reboot, the prequel, the pre trilogy, uggh thats a gross word, I was up for the role as the young Aniken Skywalker. I can talk about it now but I couldn’t then because it was so top secret. They flew me up to San Franisco and there was a limo driver who came and picked me up from the airport to take me to Skywalker Ranch to meet George Lucas. I wasn’t even allowed to tell the limo driver that I was up for the part because it was that top secret. I had to say that I was going in for an ADR looping session. I got up there and they literally said that they had cast the young young young Aniken in the previous movie and he had told someone and he(George Lucas) fired him and cast someone else. So the kid that we saw wasn’t the first cast so they really scared you. So I wasn’t allowed to tell anyone but my agent about it. I got up to Skywalker Ranch and I got to play in George Lucas’ office with Luke Skywalker’s light saber. I mean the real thing it was like aahh this is awesome. And I was like alright so how do I make myself look cool and intresting. So I had 45 minutes right before I went in to meet with him so I went and wandered around the grounds of his property and purposely stepped in a stream. I was like ahh that will make a great story I will have stepped in a stream. So I came in with one wet leg and it didnt go over as well as I thought it would. I got out and i was so excited I wanted to tell somebody that I had just been to Skywalker Ranch. I had a little time before my flight back to LA so I went into the city of San Francisco and went into this pizza place and I wanted to call my best friend from jr. highschool and tell him about this. I couldnt do it because I knew word could get out. So I went into this pizza place and I got a slice of pizza and was like listen man to the pizza guy I got to to get this off my chest. “I..guess where I just was?” He said, “I don’t know.” ” I was just at the Skywalker Ranch audtioning for the role of the young Aniken Skywalker.” He was like, “No shit dude!That’s amazing my parents own the property right next to Skywalker Ranch and my cousin is Natalie Portman. What’s your name?” And I was like, “Misha Collins” It was one of the worst moments of my life. I walked out about a block away and then came back in. I actually waited in line again at the pizza place and I got up to the counter and I was like, “Hey don’t tell anybody.” Anyway I didn’t get the part-(x)
I can’t believe I haven’t seen this on my dash! I am DYING over Dean!
omfg cannot breathe over dean
#can you imagine lucifer sifting through nick’s memories with disdain #and he pauses over star wars #watches it thruogh nick’s eyes time and time again #it’s the story of an estranged father and son #and the father is this huge force or evil #and the son rebels against his cause #and in the end the father aides the son and with his dying breaths he looks upon him with new eyes #can you imagine lucifer reeling from that
SYDNEE
MOTHER OF FORCE
Now take that and combine it with the fact that he calls Sam “Skywalker,” and consider the theory that Lucifer lets Sam take over to throw them both into the Cage at the end. It all comes full circle.
(Oops, reblogging again) THIS IS MY FAVORITE THEORY, and if it didn’t happen, Swan Song loses so much of its emotional potency. Have I mentioned before that Sam couldn’t have pulled Michael into the Cage?? But Lucifer could have. At the end of Return of the Jedi, Darth Vader throws the Emperor to his death in a moment of clarity, to save Luke, and dies in the process but gains redemption. It’s debatable, I think, whether Lucifer allowed Sam to take control or if Lucifer was just completely thrown off by Sam and Dean’s refusal, even at that point, to cooperate with destiny, and stepped back because of that. Either way, Lucifer must have been affected very deeply by their bond and their loyalty (much like Vader was deeply affected by Luke’s refusal to surrender to Palpatine.) Also, either way, Sam could not have pulled an archangel anywhere, not even with the power of love. But another archangel could have.
holy motherfucking shit
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.
And Jared and Jensen both just so inhabited those parts, and then proceeded to blow us away with how dimensionalized they were. For Jensen, the level of emotion and totally flawed, screwed-to-hell psyche that he brings to Dean, we really are enamored with. This idea that on the surface here’s this Han Solo devil-may-care persona, but when you really scratch beneath the surface, you see that anyone who has that persona has it because they are just so messed up, and that you would have to be so screwed up and damaged to be the person who always jumps first off a cliff.
So, he really brought Dean to life in a really three-dimensional way, and Jared did the same thing with Sam. Yes, Sam was likeable, and the audience surrogate and all the things he was supposed to be, but also angry, and disaffected, and, at times, hilariously funny, loyal, and despondent. He brought in all of these different colors that have really brought these characters to life, which I think is probably very rare for a genre show to have—characters as dimensionalized as ours—and I’m really proud of it. - Eric Kripke [x]
