Just looking at the images of
Deathly Hallows filming is getting me excited again. It looks fantastic! Ron! THE BEADED BAG! I am holding my breath praying they don't fuck this one up, because there's honestly not much about Half-Blood Prince that has me as excited as those few images from Deathly Hallows.

Jared, Jensen and Misha interviewed on Channel Ten News. Or, as I like to call it, Channel Ten Sensationalism. It's a lovely interview and the boys are happy and funny and slightly snarky, which is the way we like 'em, but the stuff about the female characters and female fans had me bristling. They were exaggerating, I think, but the interviewer wasn't, and it's not like most of the female characters are hated for no reason. The fandom may be sexist, but how can they be different when the show is sexist? When female characters are written as cliches and tropes and plot devices, instead of real fleshed-out characters? The only female characters the fandom doesn't hate are the ones that aren't pushed on us, but are natural additions to the show - people like Ellen and Pamela, who are believably tough and worldly without it being forced down our throats.
In other words,
this, but with the added comment that Supernatural is the most fan-integrated fandom I've seen - so much of what happens on the show is affected by the audience's VERY FIRST REACTION to a brand new character.
The 10 Most Visually Stunning Movies of the Last 10 Years, painfully and shamefully lacking in Lord of the Rings (although I agree with many of the choices, particularly the stunning, breathtaking 'The Fall'.)
