Myrelle August 17, 2019 Share August 17, 2019 (edited) It's his incredible range that blows me away. And I've read of a couple of different definitions of range in the acting field, but tbh, it doesn't matter to me how one defines it-Mr. Ackles conquers them all. For me, it's entire episodes such as IMTOD and WIAWSNB and NRFTW and yes, DaLDoM and The End as Dean. They all showcase his range of emotion. But I've also cared incredibly about other characters that he's played who were not Dean Winchester. Edited August 17, 2019 by Myrelle Revision 4 Link to comment

Maybe an unpopular opinion, but I don't get all the fuss when an actor is playing a different character. I mean, that's kind of the job description, being able to play different roles believably. But what Jensen did in The End, and to lesser extent in Dream A Little Dream, is play two versions of the same character with such nuance and subtlety, yet we knew just who was who without question. If that's the entire yardstick, playing different characters, he showed that to me way back in Dark Angel. Ben was nothing like Alec. So I kinda moved on to gauging the perforning different material in terms of scene content after that. Robert Downey Junior for example is great in my mind. My fave roles of his are Tony Stark, Sherlock Holmes and Larry from Ally McBeal. All roughly the same character types of sarcastic ass and therefore he kinda plays them the same. So what? He does it with insane charisma. Edited August 17, 2019 by Aeryn13 3 Link to comment

That is some damn fine company he's in there. It's funny she mentions the very end of 9x23 and not his actual dying, which is a masterclass from the moment Metatron stabs him until he collapses against Sam's chest. Her name is familiar to me.

He's mentioned with the greats(and deservedly so). He's so good at it that actually I hadn't really considered how difficult that "dead scene" with Crowley must have been. It was utterly convincing as she describes but it just didn't occur to me to think about how he had to ACT it. It just was. 8 Link to comment

FlickChick October 11, 2019 Share October 11, 2019 (edited) We don't have an actor thread, so I'll put this here. I feel really bad for Jensen now that I've seen the premiere of S15. It really feels like he'll be nothing more than filler in the plots/episodes/mytharc/anything really. No wonder he wasn't enthusiastic about the finale. Looks like it's going to be the Jack(in two personas)/Sam show. I really hope that Jensen finds something that he loves acting in going forward. 😞 Edited October 11, 2019 by FlickChick 1 Link to comment

gonzosgirrl October 18, 2019 Share October 18, 2019 I have no idea where this would fit, but since it's Jensen, and Dean does sing... You can pre-order Jensen & Steve's album today on iTunes, and you get the first single, Sounds of Someday, as a free download when you do. It's beautiful. That last note. Whoa. Search 'Radio Company' to find it. 2 Link to comment

gonzosgirrl October 20, 2019 Share October 20, 2019 Jensen may be the 'rock' of the trio (Jensen, Jared, Misha) but I think there is (or was) no bigger fan of the show and of Dean Winchester than Jensen Ackles. You can feel the emotion coming off this Insta. I can only imagine what he feels about it all ending, and what the show has become. 7 Link to comment

ILoveReading December 14, 2019 Share December 14, 2019 I noticed that the last few eps Dean's eyes are red rimmed, like he hasn't been sleeping. He looks so tired, warn out, done and just wanting it to be over. Dean's always carried the weight of the world on his shoulders. But the way Jensen is portraying Dean it looks like its doubled since they found out God was back. Even Dean getting his fighting spirt back, he still looks like he knows its a long shot. Major Kudos to Jensen. 8 Link to comment

Major Kudos to Jensen. Hmm, is that all Dean or a little of Jensen coming through? LOL! I agree, Jensen does so much with so very very very little. And it makes all the difference in the world. And I don't know if anyone saw it on twitter, but some fans were talking with Speight and asked about Dean's line, "Are any of us winning?", and he said that was all Jensen - total adlib. Seriously, Mr. Ackles should have been writing for this damn show! That was the best moment in that entire sequence - a little levity as everyone is getting their asses handed to them, as if they'd never been in a fight with demons before in 15 years. Maybe that's what Jensen was thinking too - like, this is ridiculous, so may as well make it funny. The one thing I liked about this latest episode is how whenever Dean was on screen, it felt like he was very much in charge, the way he used to be. 8 Link to comment

Great minds and all that: I was thinking exactly the same thing. He just seems to be the one making the decisions (except, of course, Sam’s and Eileen’s bad decision at the end; that was all on them!) and it was really good to see that again. (It’s also one of the reasons why I think he is the one who made the apology at the end: A good leader takes the responsibility and the burdens of mistakes onto himself.)

gonzosgirrl December 15, 2019 Share December 15, 2019 This is more Jensen than Dean but not sure where else to post. I got caught up in Facebook videos today and at around 12:55 in this one, Jensen answers a question about he and Jared being 'brothers in real life'. They mention S12 at some point so obviously this was before Luke Perry's passing. I knew they were friends but this must be such a poignant memory for him now. Hope this link works. https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=636046493573906&id=121223701580639&sfnsn=mo&d=n&vh=e 2 Link to comment
