New interview with Sera Gamble with spoilers we've mostly already heard, but a few new tidbits.

On February 4, you’re doing a “Back to the Future” episode when Sam and Dean time travel to 1978. What are they attempting to do?

Sam and Dean go back to try to save their mom and dad—from a threat that also travels back in time from 2020—Terminator style.

Everyone speccing this is Anna from 2020 and they're probably right, though we've got other spoilers that say Michael's first appearance will happen in this ep.

A nice little mindfrak for Dean (and everyone really) would be 2020!time-traveler is actually 2020!Dean-with-Michael-inside-him who jumps back in time to protect his vessel / send Anna into limbo or whatever else survivable in SPN (Julie McNiven claims she may come back after 5.13). This wouldn't be 2014!Dean from "The End" (yes, he died, but that timeline also no longer exists after Dean started changing things at the end of 5.04), but as a result of our current Dean's future actions based on the new timeline. Unless Dean post-5.13 changes more stuff and thus creates yet another new timeline and future gets unknown again. WEEE!! Wibbly wobbly timey wimey BS!

So yeah, this is all sounding very Terminator 2, but I am hoping it's more like that as opposed to, say, "Heaven & Hell" (also containing Anna, angel shenanigans and written by Sera Gamble). If it is anything like H&H, I'm sending Sera G my bill for the Pepto.



Sarah = Mary
John = Dean (Sam?)
Uncle Bob = Castiel (Michael?)
T1000 = Anna

I still think this is going to happen. The T2 pilfering only makes me think it more. That and how all the ne'er-do-wells get tossed into a Lake of Fire in the end. Anna trying to take out the entire Winchester fam sounds like surefire way to get a trip downstairs in Kripkeland.

IIRC Cas gets his ass kicked in this ep. Presuming that's Anna's doing (and not DeanMichael AS I'M ALREADY SHIPPING DEAN!MICHAEL/CAS *FACEPALM* *wibbles*), now I'm picturing DeanMichael leaning down over poor battered!Cas and kissing his forehead for instant intense, crazy-hot slashy healing. XD

T1000 FTMFW!!

Omg yes!!!

I was loling over that gif because I was thinking Sarah and John were Sam and Dean, Arnold was Castiel and the newer Model was Anna...then I started hoping there was a chase scene where Castiel mess up Anna like that. But I like your casting much better it's less crack.

LAWLZ, I actually thought that at first too. Though Dean=Sarah and Sam=John, but then I realized their momma is actually in this ep. Hopefully allowed to be fierce too.

Arnold was Castiel and the newer Model was Anna...

Pretty much yeah. The one that sucks at posing human the most is the one that's the most trustworthy. XD

Or Cas is Cameron cuz Dean-JohnConnor not-so-secretly wants to fuck him.

But I like your casting much better it's less crack.

Srsly tho, I don't know if sad or appropriate Dean is always de facto woman in my mind if we're comparing Dean-Sam (or Dean-Cas) to a male-female pair. If it's Mary-John, Dean's the Mary. Dido-Aeneas, Dean's Dido. etc etc LOL

Dean is just so sensitive...even if he won't show it much like my mother. Boy if that sentence isn't creepy :\

Ahhhh! Refresh my mind plz Cameron is who?

Cameron (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cameron_%28Terminator%29), aka, John's new robot bodyguard in the Terminator tv series. It was also none too subtle through pretty much the whole series John wanted to fuck her, but obviously couldn't/wouldn't since she's a terminator and he's supposed to be waging war against them in the future. LOL By the last few eps it's heavily implied he's in love with her.

Oh, man I never saw that series. For some reason I was picturing Sam Worthington's character from Terminator: Salvation and I got very excited.

Nope, not Sam Worthington, but there was robot (well, cyborg) lovin in that too, as I recall. XD So that would make Castiel the Marcus Wright and Dean the Blair Williams. LOL!

Though logic dictates Dean's the Batman Jesus John Connor of SPN, but I can't seem to cast Dean as the John where T:Sal comparison is concerned cuz I was shocked how much I didn't care about John in that movie. lol Marcus stole the whole damn show.

:shrug: I honestly thought Marcus was the main character there. John was like support or background. Not as important to me.

Even if Marcus wasn't supposed to be the protag (tho I think he was, the whole movie started off and ended with him), he was to me too. If he wasn't, IDGAF. McG can blow me. Maybe next time he should have reined in CBale's Batman-cloning and got srs about playing John Connor instead?

well, I suppose it couldn't be 2015, they sorta did that already. XD Now, if they do one where they go back to 1910 (what, and meet Sarah Winchester?) the trifecta will be complete!

I'll be reading up on what happens in the ep just so I can laugh at this trainwreck. And to see if they put in a bit where Dean's brain is kinda broken when he meets Mary again. Dean is all "Oh hai mom! Oh, she's preggers! with...um, it's 1978...SHIT THAT'S ME THERE OMG." :his brain shatters: LOL, I'm mean, aren't I? XD

Given how S5 is going, it would be just par for the course, them going back in time to find the Lucifer-killing Winchester rifle (substitute other mystical object as desired) hidden behind a magical door in that crazy Winchester House. XP

1978 seems so random to me. Dean's not going to be conceived for several months yet (wasn't he born in Jan 1980?). Or they didn't want a pregnant chick getting attacked on the tv box?

Unless Anna is there to prevent something else specific that happened in 1978. Maybe Michael did pose as angel of the Annunciation and the other angels/Anna are trying to cut him off at the pass? *confused*

As for Dean with a broken brain, someone speculated that Sam or Castiel would have to help Mary deliver Dean. LOL

Date: 2010-01-20 03:27 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] julorean.livejournal.com
Nope, Dean was born in 1979. I saw some photos from the ep (lnked from TwoP, I think), Mary looked pretty far along.

Sam delivering baby!Dean? Oh, I'd pay to see that! I can just imagine him freaking out! XD

Since Sammy is John 2.0 and John looks to be the Joseph of the story, then it makes sense, in the absence of John, Sammy may end up on delivering duty if it happens. Cas may be too busy holding off Herod cray cray Anna.

I really want NOBODY to get to play Michael except Jensen Ackles, WHATEVER WAY THAT MIGHT MEAN.

All I think when I look at Robert Patrick these days is 'heeeey that's Gillian Anderson's ex-boyfriend'

From: [identity profile] eido.livejournal.com
Srsly! No one else would do him justice! All the archangels have brought the awesome acting and Michael is The Archangel, they have to bring it. Jensen playing him is just more convenient. That would also mean the first time travel ep, Dean was confronted with Samifer, the second one he's confronted with Deanael. And you know I favor the Dean=Michael theories. ;) So Mary gives birth to Dean who is actually Michael (but also possibly Jesus).

I've seen T2 so many times (it's an illness, really), more times than latter XF eps I've seen. So he'll likely forever been T1000 in my brainmeat.

Holy crap, if this was gonna happen I would probably even manage to like Anna in the episode! WOW. Too bad this is never going to happen...come on, Sera Gamble? No way she writes something like that.

OMG I JUST WANT FUTURE!DEAN TO TAKE OVER THE SHOW OR SOMETHING. My love for his damaged bad ass self is bright and soul-consuming.

Yeah, you're probably right. At this point I'm just hoping it's not another "Heaven & Hell". Dude, there's just not enough booze in the world to sit through another ep that's all about Sera's angel sue again. She sounds like she might actually being doing things in this ep, so hopefully no H&H repeat. *cringes*

U CAN HAS FUTURE!DEAN! I'll be over here with my cracktastic Dean who realizes he's been Michael all along. Deanael with terrifying cosmic powers! HUZZAH!

BRRRR. Heaven and Hell was the WORST episode of the whole show IMO. That's why I can't stand Anna now, how could you have a character redeem itself after THAT? Poor Anna, what they did to her was unfair on every aspect.
And come on, they did that mess ONLY to show some Ackles skin, and we only got a glimpse of his back, next time at least show us MOAR. I mean, if we have to watch the whole Episode of Fail, at least make it worth our time, jeez.

U CAN HAS FUTURE!DEAN!
OH GOD. I'm getting hot and bothered just at the mere thought I could see him again!!! I LURVE HIM SO MUCH.

I don't even know what possessed me to rewatch it for the commentary. I guess I was unconsciously waiting for Gamble to explain/justify herself about it, but no such luck. She did go on how pretty Anna's hair was though. o.O Fail. And it's such a BIG mytharc ep too! You'd think it would have at least been mediocre, but... oh god. It's like secondhand embarrassment bad. There are maybe two or three not awful scenes in it, Dean saves Cas, Uriel's dreamwalking and Dean cries.

Srsly, I love me some Jackles skin as much as anyone of the fem-het persuasion with eyes, but I can make do with screencaps. Jaysus. I don't think I'll ever forgive them for associating unintentionally corny/lulzy with nekkid Jensen back.

they did that mess ONLY to show some Ackles skin

JPad got nekkid in the last ep so we got to get Jackles nekkid too!! Gotta keep the fangirls happy!! DohHOH!

There's a commentary of that episode? *shiver*

Yeah, there was Cas, that's always a good thing in any book, but I won't ever rewatch that episode :/
Oh right, pretty red hair are important for the plot, I'm so stupid. LOL

Oh yeah, I'll take them forever clothed anytime, if we can just skip these shallow love interests. I've never been that kind of fangirl anyway.
I'm cringing right this moment thinking of both those love scenes! They won't ever leave my brain alone, will they?

Date: 2010-01-20 03:18 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] eido.livejournal.com
At least Kripke (in the S4 DVD extras) compared Anna's fall to Lucifer's, so that might give some hint she has some reason being there apart from her pretty hair. Since she's sounding all T1000 in the spoilers, I'll be cautiously optimistic.

What is seen cannot be unseen! I actually don't think Sam's shallow love interests are that bad usually (aside from Ruby, but I actually ignore that IKWYDLS scene. I thought it was gratuitous, but I didn't necessarily think it was embarrassing. Ok, maybe a little lulzy). I'm also pretty much accustomed to Jensen not having much chem with the actresses cast as Dean's love interests, but it's like they took that H&H sex scene to a whole new level of awkward. It couldn't be enough JA had no chem with JM and her character is so painfully milquetoast, they cranked up the Harlequin to 11 in some attempt to make it appealing? The song? The "Titanic" shout-out? I just... don't know what they were thinking. At all. I still don't know if they were somehow trying to make it purposefully bad/a parody of other cheestastic love scenes (the Model-T sexin in "Titanic" to name one), because that's exactly how it came off to me.

Tho I'll give it one thing, after H&H, I don't think I'll ever say anything bad about "Route 666" or "Red Sky at Morning" ever again.

That's how it came off to me too. I bet I know what they were thinking. They were thinking (or more likely it was just TPTB) that they needed to go after CW's target teenage girl demo, which they didn't even try to make work.

What I don't get is I've heard that "the angels" send Anna back to 1978 to kill everybody. Why would the angels want Dean dead too? He's Michael's vessel. Is Gabriel the one who orders Anna to go back and do this, because I could see him wanting everybody dead - no vessels, maybe all the angels will get along again? Otherwise, I'm confused.

IDK IDK, when the spoilers first came out for this one I thought Anna was acting alone, but now it sounds like she's under angelic mandate. Is it another rebel faction of angels? Because srsly, are the angels for Armageddon or not?

Date: 2010-01-20 02:22 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] thandie.livejournal.com
Maybe the angels just want to kill Sam? So there's no way Lucifer can raise?

Date: 2010-01-20 02:25 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] eido.livejournal.com
But going back all the way to 1978 to do it? That would kill Michael's precious angel condom too.

And is that a Starsky & Hutch icon? WIN! XD

Date: 2010-01-20 02:33 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] thandie.livejournal.com
Yeah, but Michael wouldn't even need a condom if Sam died, right?

Sure it is! YAY! Haven't you seen my embarrassing pimping post from hell last week? :D

Date: 2010-01-20 02:52 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] eido.livejournal.com
That is true! I'd say Lucifer could use another condom (Nick), but then they apparently needed Dean-Sam to open the seals in the first place (Dean to go to Hell for Sam, then open the first seal and Sam to open the last). So without Sam, Lucifer would presumably still be in Hell.

However, my current crackspec is I do think God is behind the Armageddon business, tho I don't think necessarily to purge Earth, but purge Heaven. Everyone apart from Cas either seem like assholes and/or untrustworthy, they all need to get fired. Or at least need a long sabbatical with lots of therapy to cure them of massive emo (Raphael. Tho Gabriel has been gone forever and he's still emo about the angel fam).

I've been full of illness lately so lax on my LJ stalking. *sadface and goes to sift thru your posts*

I have no idea about God, I hope they come out with something good! My opinion is that he's an asshole that got bored of all those boring angels and is now on vacation on Earth.

Oh noes, illness! I hope everything is good now. Just told you to get in there because you were all 'AH, S&H!' :P

I wouldn't be shocked you might be right, if for any reason it might make Cas cry. I suspect he would get his crying quota in this show (Jimmy doesn't count), being the new guy and the other two having overabundance of crying scenes. Even tho I crackspec Cas will cry first when Dean finds out about him letting Sammy out of the panic room/betraying Anna and Dean breaks up with him (again).

70s cop shows were the best. heee

'If it is anything like H&H, I'm sending Sera G my bill for the Pepto.'
Hear! Hear! I'm not a big fan of her writing in general, but she really phoned that episode in (I seem to remember the only thing she said about Anna was that she had nice hair). If I didn't know Anna was a canon character I'd think she was someone's badly written fanfic OC (I tried to like Anna, I really did).

'A nice little mindfrak for Dean (and everyone really) would be 2020!time-traveler is actually 2020!Dean-with-Michael-inside-him who jumps back in time to protect his vessel / send Anna into limbo or whatever else survivable in SPN (Julie McNiven claims she may come back after 5.13).'

IIRC, Anna was supposed to be the character that replaced Castiel after his original 6 ep run was over, but obvs that didn't turn out that way. If that is the case and they seemed unwilling to let go of Anna (she was in a pretty mytharc heavy ep, despite it being a whole lot of fail), I could believe she suffered from last-minute botched revision attempt that's still haunting the character.

I like the idea of Michael!Dean going back to save human!Dean.

Ditto. Even if it's just to protect an asset. I just love the idea of Michael being there, pretty much around the whole Winchester fam.

That could very well be the case. It's always made me wonder what Anna would have been like if she actually had taken over Castiel's role.

'I just love the idea of Michael being there, pretty much around the whole Winchester fam.'
Me too! I'm hoping that is where Mary's 'there are angels watching over us' line came from. I like it when Supernatural ties things together like that.
