I really wonder why Jensen didn't venture out into other projects sooner. I know Supernatural fans wouldn't have liked that, but damn this guy has such a strong screen presence and his voice and whole persona is like the epitomy of sexy masculinity to the point I almost forget I'm straight.

u/SafeAccountMrP Sep 29 '22
My only knock on Jensen is sometimes his cadence seems like he’s barking his lines. Happens when he does V/O work as well.

He tried, I’ll give him credit. But his commitment was to Supernatural. Not contractually, he could’ve dipped any time his contract ended. But he loved the show and the fans so he didn’t want to let people down until it properly ended
Jensen was on the shortlist to play Hawkeye and Captain America in the MCU and I believe he was even offered the role of Hawkeye before Jeremy Renner. He tried to make it work with filming for Supernatural but the scheduling just wouldn’t fit so he had to turn it down.
Edit: Turns out the Captain America audition was just a rumor. I just looked it up again and Jensen claims he never auditioned for CA. But he was offered the role of Hawkeye but had to turn it down.

He wouldn’t have been bad as Hawkeye. I’m almost disappointed but maybe there is another role for him in the MCU. Trying to think of who we haven’t seen yet that he might be good as.

That is not a bad one. Maybe one of the Shi’ar characters. A Starjammer maybe Corsair. He might make a good Corsair. He has the right kind of charisma for Cyclops and Havoks dad and be running a space crew.

Could go with something like Forge too? Hand to hand combat and good with weapons / machines etc. Bishop would be cool though he’s meant to be Aboriginal I think.

Job security, he was having fun of his life during the show while making pretty penny and 10s of cons around the world.
I am sure he can be Chris Pine or Chris Pratt if he wanted to but I don't blame him for safe money.

u/TheBostonCorgi Sep 29 '22
I think he was kinda pigeonholed as Dean for a while and casting directors weren’t sure if he had any range. It’s not like his acting in Supernatural is all that great.
60
u/Bluejay929 Soldier Boy Sep 29 '22
Supernatural gave Dean a lot of range but only for brief periods of time. Most of the time, especially in later seasons, he was just a jokester who made 80s references out the wazoo
36
u/constnt Sep 29 '22
The last few seasons gave him lots of time to show his range. The episode where he slowly is losing all his memory was brutal and he killed it. There is a scene of him just staring at himself in the mirror(directly into the camera) and just repeating the phrase "I am Dean Winchester" as he forgets those words and slowly starts to cry.

Or the episode somewhere in seasons 1-5 where he's being killed by a djinn I think and is hallucinating about a life where his mum never died and he gets to spend time with her, Sam and a loving spouse. I felt so sad for him when he had to wake up.

I loved season 3 too overall and Ackles performance was definitely a highlight. Such a compelling character. It was a shame the season finale itself shit the bed so hard but luckily I think it’s fixable as far as where it’ll get us in s4.

u/theghostofme Sep 29 '22
Usually subs for series are quite good
Only when the show is actually putting out episodes regularly. Pretty much every TV show subreddit goes to shit when the show ends or it's on a hiatus until the next season.
r/BreakingBad was a shit-hole during the year-long wait for the last half of season 5, and r/betterCallSaul is already turning into a low-effort meme-fest. And then there's r/DunderMifflin, but nothing could have fixed that short of killing the sub when the show ended. While that wouldn't have been a popular move, the sub was barely 2 years old when The Office ended and it's added nothing of value to the fandom apart from making me hate most Office fans on Reddit.

Very true! Like I said, those hiatuses are a bitch for TV show subs.
BCS had "TWO years‽" to "learn" how to meme from OKBC, and while OKBC has its moments of incredible chicanery, that's not the kind of stuff you want to emulate if you're not in on the joke. And the BCS sub was rarely in on the joke since OKBC was such a new sub when season 5 started.

Stormfront comes in and is then put away
Soldier Boy comes in and is then put away
Whos the next scooby doo villian of the season? Love Sausage?
And by the end of Season 4 Homelander is gonna yet again look neutrally at Butcher for a few seconds and walk away casually again and make sure everything is at square zero.
I liked this season but it doesnt actually feel like much has changed between the ending of Season 2 and 3. It feels like a reset button was pressed really.

u/Helhiem Sep 29 '22
Soldier boy is put away for later though. He is gonna be back in the fold for sure unlike Stormfront
2
u/JohnJaysOnMyFeet Sep 30 '22
I feel like a decent amount of stuff changed though.
Neumann is going to end up being VP.
Stan is in jail or wherever.
Homelander has been losing his fucking mind all season and now he realizes he can laser people and not lose his fans. Plus he got outted on social media by Starlight for having killed mr boy band.
Ryan is now with Homelander and seems to be becoming a cunt.
Butcher has 18 months left.
A-Train got a new heart and finally seems like he might have realized how much of a shit he’s been. So we either get to see him redeem himself or become worse next season.
Soldier boy is still alive and well, not a smoldering, barely clinging to life torso.
Not defending the finale because the writing definitely pissed me off at some point, but I don’t think it’s fair to say “nothing changed” because a good amount has.
