    Are new angels ever created?

    I don't think so.

    If the show continues to follow the Dogma... uh, dogma, then humans can't transubstantiate.  (See Houses of the Holy -- the priest explicitly states that man cannot become angels.)  

    Now, TPTB could change that canon at any time, if they wished.  But as things stand, I think Chuck would have to create new angels.

    I've long thought they should separate Sam and Dean more to allow Jared and Jensen more time off. It doesn't have to be for episodes at a time either. IMO, they've done it well on a small scale in the past. Episodes like Long Distance Call, Time is on My Side and Heaven Can't Wait are episodes where they were separated physically, but working something together so you didn't miss out on the bro-dynamic.

    Time After Time, as well.  Dean is in the past, Sam is in the present, worked great.

    Yes, I've come across things, but the memories tied to the objects isn't as strong as the feelings I get from my friends and family.  Id rather see the person who gave me the object rather than the object. It just made Sam look more attached to his memories than he was Dean as a person.

    The point is, it triggered the memories -- of Dean.  Every good memory of Dean he ever had, he felt in that moment.  And it allowed him to regain control.

    But we can just agree to disagree.

    Indeed.  Because I have no interest in trying to convince anyone else, only express how I interpreted the episode.

    Why wasn't the sight of Dean enough?

    Because he was looking at Dean the whole time.  Like I said before, haven't you come across something you hadn't seen in years that caused a flood of memories and emotions?  IMO, that flood of memories is what gave Sam the strength and weakened Lucifer's hold on him.

    Spoiler

    Just like Harry and Voldemort.  His friends were not in the atrium when Voldemort possessed Harry.  It was just the 2 of them and Dumbledore.  Dumbledore was trying to convince Harry to fight, but it wasn't until the others joined them that the rush of love flooded Harry and weakened Voldemort.

    Meanwhile, Sam was not trying to force Lucifer out.  He was trying to force him down, thereby regaining control of his own body.  A completely different situation from regaining control of your body from a demon.

    Mileage, as always, varies.

  17. How I feel about Swan Song.  

    On 1/26/2015 at 5:23 PM, Demented Daisy said:

    I have largely refrained from discussing Swan Song because, in the end, I was never sure how I felt about it.  But now, almost 5 years later, I think I finally have some clarity.

    Everything that follows is my opinion, as this is the Unpopular Opinions thread.

    Sam did not save the world on his own.  Dean absolutely had to be there, to give Sam the strength he needed to regain control of his body and jump into the pit.

    The green army man was only ever a green army man.  On its own, it has no power.  Have you ever sorted through your attic or an old closet and found something that you forgot you had?  And when you saw it, held it in your hands, it brought back powerful memories and emotions?  That's what the green army man did.  For a moment, it brought back every good feeling Sam had for Dean.  That love allowed him to regain control.

    And Dean....  Dean did what he had to do -- that's what he did his whole life.  Without Dean's love, his sacrifice, his absolute determination to take care of his little brother at all costs, Sam and Adam would have waged war that day.

    Everything that Dean ever did for Sam mattered in that one moment.  And Dean had to be there, to remind Sam of everything they had endured -- together.  In that one moment, it was absolute, unconditional love that saved the world.

    It wasn't Sam; it wasn't Dean.  It was love.

    The green army man gave Sam something that adult Dean could not -- it reminded Sam of all the good memories they shared as children.  

    Harry Potter references ahead, so I'll spoiler tag.

    Spoiler

    When Voldemort possessed Harry in Order of the Phoenix, it wasn't Dumbledore that saved Harry.  It wasn't even Harry himself.  When his friends entered the atrium and Harry was reminded of the love that he had for his family and friends, he was finally able to force Voldemort out.  He never stopped loving them, he just needed something -- or a group of people -- to remind him that he had everything that Voldemort would never have.

    That's what Sam got from that green army man -- a lifetime of memories with Dean.

    I have a feeling this might have been more of a business decision, trying to tie comics to the MCU lineup. It seems like Inhumans started gaining importance after the Phase 3 lineup was announced. I know there were rumors about Marvel trying to replace X-Men with Inhumans because FOX owns the X-Men movie rights. 

    Along those lines, rumors abound (at another forum I frequent) that the whole "Cyclops = Hitler" thing was devised before the Death of X/Inhumans vs X-Men stories were fully thought out (much less written) and that the story was changed after Marvel and Fox worked the Deadpool deal.

  19. My unpopular opinion is that I never want to see Dean as Michael's vessel.  Never have, never will.  

    I hated the Mark of Cain storyline (and Demon Dean) because it wasn't Dean.  I like Dean, I want to see Dean, not an angelic or demonic version of him.  I don't want to see him with superpowers.  I want Dean to remain human, with all the flaws that come with being human.  Because that's why he's interesting to me.  

    That's why the show itself was interesting to me in the first place!  Here are these two guys, these two hard-working, blue collar guys, trying to save people in a world of monsters and magic.  Then Sam developed his demon blood powers and became boring to me.  But Dean remained human, despite the magic and monsters and demons and witches and every horrible thing in Heaven and Hell and on Earth that could have changed him.

    Then Carver came along and destroyed it.  And I will never forgive him for that.  But Dean was cured and lost the Mark of Cain and went back to being Dean.  That's why S11 is so much better to me than S8-10.  

    Please, show, I beg of you, keep Dean human.
