SUPERNATURAL (2005 - 2020) S10E09, THE THINGS WE LEFT BEHIND

Love these two

The Supernatural Finale Red Herring Theory

Or reasons why it was the AU guys we saw in the finale, not our Sam and Dean.

Because:

1. It makes me feel better.

2. I can just see them doing this for the Ackles reboot because it’s an easy way to reopen everything.

Having felt better joking about this with @margarittet all morning I wanted to share it 😊

We see Sam and Dean walk away from Jack at the end of 19. From here is the split.

What we didn’t see:

Our Sam and Dean walk away from Jack... and head back to the bunker. En route Sam calls Eileen. She is alive! Duh, they all are, Jack brought them back. They liaise about where she is and Sam takes her car back to her, because he has her car and they are in love. A happy reunion and much motel shagging ensues, Dean jokingly put 3 packets of condoms in Sam’s bag before he went but they came in very handy, so Sam ain’t complaining.

Meanwhile Dean mopes and drives around, he’s happy for Sam but he’s devastated for himself. He calls Charlie to check she’s ok and yes her girlfriend poofed back and they flew to Vegas and got hitched within the day. “Gotta grab those opportunities for happiness Dean, I wasn’t letting her go again”. He can’t help but be jealous. He longs for Castiel. He might be happy for Sam and Charlie, but he can’t forget about Cas. He just can’t.

So of course as a recall to earlier canon, Jack feels his longing and resurrects Castiel for Dean as he did only a few years ago. But this time it’s more obviously because he romantically loves him back.

So while driving Baby aimlessly and thinking about Cas just a few days after the end of the world, Cas reappears on the side of the road, just as he did after purgatory. Dean, now he knows how Cas feels, wastes no time and they have a grand romantic reunion right there on the side of the road, then a less grand and more frantic reunion in the car, and when they’re arrested for indecent exposure, because Dean only now realises Cas chose to come back human (because of course Jack asked him what he wanted) and they can’t get poofed away, they have an awkward call with Sam posturing as an FBI agent to have them let go. Sam, of course, never wants to think about this ever again, while Eileen thinks it’s hilarious and brings it up mercilessly whenever she can. Sam and Cas have a wonderful brotherly reunion back at the bunker, then they all discuss how they want to retire now things are in the best position they can leave them in and they deserve it.

They pack up their personal things, call around various friends and family to let them know they’re retiring, but always at the end of the phone, and then they call their AU counterparts to let them know they can either stand down or take up the mantle. They decide on the latter as they are just ridiculously bored, and stupid, so they leave the bunker to them. There’s a lovely metaphorical scene where they hand the keys over at the bunker door.

What we did see:

Episode 20:

We follow AU Sam and Dean as they attempt their first cases as hunters pretending to be this world’s Sam and Dean so they can retire unlooked for and in peace. It’s kinda sweet, but they’re just a bit crap at it.

They continue to be charicatures of themselves. A fun indication that this is AU Sam and Dean is how their personal habits are flipped with Dean the messy one and Sam the tidy one. They make cheesy jokes and have a stupid faceplant pie scene. AU Dean is a dog lover. It’s all cheesy, because they’re the AU bros. They’re morons.

They remember a bit about what their counterparts told them about saving the world, they vaguely know of Castiel, who they ran into briefly years ago. When Sam brings up his sacrifice as told by the others, Dean thinks huh that’s a shame he’s dead he was kinda hot, but oh well he’d want us to keep living so meh, he continues to eat pie.

This is the only explanation, given our Dean has frequently lost the plot and even killed himself when Cas is dead. This guy doesn’t even know who he is. Ok then. Pie.

And well, unfortunately they’re just not that good at hunting and AU Dean gets rebared.

Tough gig. Didn’t last long fellas.

Dean’s kinda confused when he gets to heaven to find this guy Bobby but it’s ok his parents are round the corner and he likes them :)

Meanwhile AU Sam never even met Eileen so he just marries blurry wife #1 and carries on. He has photos of his mom and dad in his house because he had a pretty good relationship with his dad actually, in the AU, so that all makes sense too.

@asphodelesauvage adds: this also explains the wig because AU!Sam put so much product on his hair that his hair died and now looks like a dead rat.

In the end, it’s sad but these guys are just charicatures of our Sam and Dean, we saw them attempt hunting and fail miserably at the easiest hurdle, they have no memory of the people our Sam and Dean showed they loved deeply just a day before, and, basically, they’re just not very good at anything and they don’t act like our Sam and Dean, like at all, throughout the whole episode.

And that’s why it makes more sense that it’s these idjits, not our world’s Sam and Dean who we watched be massacred in the finale.

The End.

Jensen: Hey, Misha…what are you doing over here by yourself?

Cockles killing me…and bonus Misha head boop on Jensen♡

Such a pushy boyfriend

the cinematography of destiel

so to cope with spn ending, I’ve been re-watching it from the beginning and have just been massively hit by the cinematography of destiel. it’s not something I really picked up on the first time round – I was too busy falling in love with their relationship – but HOLY SHIT. everything about the cinematography of cas and dean’s relationship plays so heavily into romantic cinematography tropes. 

we all know that destiel was heavily (heavily) implied through the storyline, the dialogue, that goddamn electric chemistry between jensen and misha and the way they played dean and cas. but (until the finale season ofc), none of that was made explicit, and the showrunners often claimed destiel was just a “fan interpretation” and nothing deliberate on their part in creating the show. after re-watching spn recently (and I’m only up to s9), I’m sorry but I have to say that this is so blatantly bullshit. the directing choices and cinematography of destiel were clear, deliberate choices that were made about how to portray the relationship between dean and cas. and it’s precisely these choices that so clearly places them in a romantic setting right from the start. 

as much as the script and their chemistry, the cinematography of destiel is what marks their relationship as undeniably romantic. I mean, seriously. their scenes legit feature all the hallmarks of romantic cinematography. like, things that are literally only ever used to portray a romantic on-screen dynamic???

Soft, romantic lighting

look at this shit. the soft glow full of warm hues and gentle shadow is the trademark of romantic scenes. there are a RIDICULOUS number of destiel scenes lit this way. in fact, I’d go so far as to say the majority of ones where it’s just cas and dean are like this: driving at night in the impala; countless scenes outside in the dark with soft light behind them like this one; even their goddamn fight scene is lit like a romantic movie scene. 

as with stereotypical romantic scenes, this soft, intimate lighting is generally combined with emotional intimacy and vulnerability. this kind of lighting is purposely used for this type of scene because it makes people’s eyes twinkle and thus draws attention to emotional tension and intimacy of expression that are so typical of romantic scenes. I mean, you’d never have a scene with dean and bobby lit like the gif above, would you? 

other examples: 

Focus on communication through eye contact and body language

as with romantic movies, with destiel there’s a LOT of focus on non-verbal communication, particularly through eye contact. much more so than with any other relationship on the show, destiel depends on these, as is typical for the portrayal of a romantic on-screen dynamic; it ups the tension between the characters and gives the sense of a fundamentally deeper connection between them that explains their devotion and actions towards each other.  

other examples: 

Interaction in quiet, intimate scenes

the scenes where cas and dean are on their own are typically quiet, softly lit environments where they’re completely alone and the outside world fades out, narrowing their focus down to each other. the intimacy of these settings implies in turn the emotional intimacy of their relationship and feelings towards each other. these are all settings where emotional vulnerability is made much more possible, and give the characters the opportunity to give light to versions of themselves that otherwise stay hidden. 

again, this is something so typical of romantic cinematography, as it builds the emotional intimacy between the characters and gives deliberate focus to the unique dynamic that exists between them.

Camera close-ups, implying emotional and physical closeness

this has been the case literally since the moment cas and dean first interaction:

this close, intimate camerawork is one of the defining features of the scenes between dean and cas. it places the focus on all that is unsaid between them but is implied, the complexity and nuance of the way they interact and what they feel towards each other. how closely focused they are on each other. the choice to film their expressions at such close range gives space to this in a way that the show doesn’t do with any other characters, even when the emotional storyline between them is important. sam and dean come the closest to this, but even then it isn’t shot as closely as dean and cas’s scenes often are. 

this close camerawork provides a kind of intimacy that we don’t see anywhere else in the show apart from in romantic contexts (and even then rarely on the level it is with destiel). this intense focus that draws attention eye contact, expression, connection, and non-verbal communication is another hallmark of romantic cinematography, serving to further emphasise the emotional intimacy between them.

(I could go on forever with these ones, it’s literally the entire show)

Reaction shots like this

romantic movies like to use show not tell to reveal how the characters really feel about each other - typically by using reaction shots of their disappointment/jealousy/pain, e.g. when they see the person they love with someone else. here are SO MANY instances of this with destiel. the reaction shots of dean and cas responding to the other in romantic situations are used ridiculously often, and literally don’t make any sense if they’re not intended to imply a romantic dynamic between them. these reactions are completely irrelevant to the storyline - they only serve to give us information about the cas and dean’s true feelings about each other. THERE IS LITERALLY NO OTHER REASON FOR A DIRECTOR TO MAKE THE DECISION TO INCLUDE THESE. 

(don’t even get me started on how quietly heartbroken dean looks in this scene)

other examples: cas’s reaction all the way back in s4 to dean kissing anna, and dean’s reaction to cas kissing meg.

so yeah. those are some of the main things I’ve noticed. it’s also very worth noting that the majority of destiel scenes (i.e. just cas and dean) employ ALL OF THESE KEY FEATURES OF ROMANTIC CINEMATOGRAPHY AT ONCE. 

I really don’t think it’s possible, from this, that the showrunners weren’t deliberately hinting at the romantic nature of destiel from the very beginning. the cinematography speaks for itself. 

A better s15 outline starting with the end of s14 when Chuck brings all the ghosts/monsters back:

Cas + Grace

tombstone ➤ he’s an angry sleeper

#this is some married shit right here#cas learning what kind of coffee dean likes#fresh roasted or instant#from a coffee machine or french pressed#even bought him a keruig#and dean said he didn’t want it but secretly loved it#of course they use the eco kcups#and then how much sugar he likes#or milk#cream and/or creamer#years of trial and error because cas wants dean to wake up amazing every day#that’s what he thinks he deserves to be pampered right off the bat  (tags via @thiscastielhasflown)

This is one of my favorite ‘carry on’ reviews on IMDb, it’s been deleted for no valid reason.

I don’t know why (well I have an idea 💰 ) but IMDb are massively deleting "spn" and "carry on" negative reviews, especially ones that have most likes (wonder why 🙄)

I already pointed out that they are falsifying "carry on" and "inherit the earth" ratings , (actual C.O rating is 5.3 ⭐️ and I.T.E is 6.5 ⭐️ but they pretend using a thing called weighted rating and no one knows how it works, yeah very convenient )

Now they are deleting your reviews, I’ll share some beautifully written reviews here, most of them were deleted.

If you wrote one of these reviews, know that you can post it again, it’s still there in the review page, just log in with your account, go to C.O reviews page, on top you will see that your review is still there, edit it slightly and post it again, it will appear within minutes and won’t lose its likes.

Don’t let the c*w get away with it.

Oh just one last thing I noticed: the reviews that get deleted are most likely the ones that contain the words "queerbaiting" , "incest" "homophobia" "queer" "lgbt" "mental health" "bury your gays" "suicide" "trauma"

Yes the c*w are doing everything to not be exposed. So you know what you have to go and do if you want to piss them off, write more negative reviews and expose them.

Let me get something blatantly clear:

I do not support Jared Padalecki because of Jared Padalecki. Destiel however has nothing to do with that. Stop saying we don’t support Jared anymore because of Destiel, that’s pure bullshit and simply not true.

It’s for openly harassing several people on social media, including face photos, names and locations of the victims.

It’s for beating up 2 employees until they bleed while being highly intoxicated.

It’s for trying to bribe the police while being arrested for assault.

It’s for openly making fun of the death of a beloved actor, calling it “not sad, but stupid”.

It’s for pulling “pranks” where several people were put in high physical danger, including newborns.

It’s for pulling “pranks” that ended in mental breakdowns.

It’s for making rape jokes on stage.

It’s for purposely misgendering people in public.

It’s for hitting the emergency break on a full train because of a forgotten bag.

It’s for praising the ending of Supernatural in every possible moment while knowing your best friend struggled so hard.

It’s for using the ending of Supernatural as a backdoor pilot for the next project.

It’s for openly saying Dean’s death is a success story.

It’s for openly comparing a deaf character to a Demon.

It’s for openly hurting and replacing your fandom by saying the new project is the “passion project” that “hopefully lasts longer than Supernatural.”

I don’t support Jared because of Jared and nothing else!

That doesn’t mean I attack him or fans. It simply means I unfollowed and I don’t want to have anything to do with him or future projects anymore.

Thanks for reading.
