Jared and the promos...
Sep. 25th, 2013 09:50 pmNo ground breaking observations here, but I am fascinated by their choices in this poster. Also...Jared and that tee! (potential spoilers)

Another photoshop effort from the graphics department. I rather like it (much more than last year's!). It's atmospheric and seems to have a narrative of some sort. In most promo posters Sam is strong and looking forward. Here he is the only one looking down and not engaging the viewer. I suspect it reflects his state going into S9 but I have to assume he's not going to remain this wrecked for long. It makes me curious why they chose to show Sam like this. Maybe it's purely based on the first episode. I love how strong and determined Dean looks - Crowley and Cas do too for that matter. Also, Sam has metal bands on his wrists. I assume one is his watch. What's the other one I wonder? A bracelet? Since when?
And that tee! *guh* He's seen in much of the promo stuff in this t-shirt. I figure it's about making him look stripped back - almost vulnerable. I dunno! Maybe they've dressed him in this simply because he looks damn hot in it - but all these things are taken into consideration when preparing for a promo shoot so dressing him in a clingy, grey t-shirt has to mean something. Doesn't it?! (ok...so it's just so we can see more of his arms...I'M NOT COMPLAINING!)



Aaaaanyway. All the promos have been pretty cool (and HOT!). It feels like there's quite a different feel going into S9. Less horror and more..I dunno..sexy intrigue? We shall see I suppose. TWO WEEKS PEOPLE!!

but then again, i would trust that the CW and Supernatural promo department would have to pass this by TPTB but considering that they didn't remember about the Grand Canyon, yeah, i don't know.

Date: 2013-09-25 03:30 pm (UTC)i mean i know it's only a TV show, but i found it very upsetting with the Amelia crap; Sam's not looking for Dean, his "love" for Amelia (i just didn't see that) having to even decide between a normal life and Dean, then the Grand Canyon comment.
i have thoroughly enjoyed every season, 6 and 7 for sure and had some high hopes for season 8, then i was like what? and the closest explanation for what was happening there was the thread about the set designs and the way the scenes between Amelia and her Dad and Sam were shot. i just felt like it was something else going on and that would explain Sam's bizarre behavior. but that didn't happen and the trials and the bunker came along but then that Grand Canyon comment, grrrr, through me right out of it again.
maybe the writers and producers need to buy and read some of the books about Supernatural.
lol, sorry, this is just such a sore point with me. and yeah it's a TV show, but yeah....
