To contact us Click HERE
Unicorns, laser-eyed robots, killer sharks and cranky clowns all have an affect on this latest installment of Supernatural. Regrettably, Mike is around the business finish of the brutal beating through the things he fears most. Meanwhile, Dean finds something he loves: a huge Slinky. During the last seven seasons of Supernatural, we have many userful stuff here about Mike and Dean. We have learned their likes as well as their dislikes. We have learned their most favorite lingo and the things they prefer to eat and put on. But as this is a horror show, we have also learned what they are scared of. For example, we all know Dean hates to fly. Season 1's "Phantom Traveler" had him face that fear to amusing results. In Season 2's "Everyone Loves a Clown, we discovered something about Sammy: He's an excellent large anxiety about individuals circus freaks known as clowns. This latest episode had the youngest Winchester fighting that fear once again. By fighting, I am talking about getting his cute self beaten, battered and bruised. Poor Sammy. I do not mind saying I had been fearing "Plucky Pennywhistle's Magical Menagerie" (also known as "PPMM") for a few reasons. 1. Typing that lengthy ass title takes forever. Therefore it is only going to take place once. 2. Similar to Sammy, I personally don't like clowns. However, Used to do pull through "Everyone Loves a Clown" in older days, and so i had high hopes. Obviously the episode did not waste whenever dealing with individuals circus monstrosities. Sam's running from these questions scene that's similar to Dean's own running escapade that went lower in Season 4's "Yellow Fever." But Sammy has something real to become scared of while Dean only thought he did. His tormentor would be a cute little doggy. Not the 2nd introduction of Pennywise, the frightening clown from Stephen King's book and subsequent small-series known as "It." Things I loved about "PPMM": -I love the very fact the recap demonstrated Sam's coulrophobia (anxiety about clowns) from Season 2. It appears such a long time ago, right? -The Supernatural title page was customized to suit the theme during the day. Unpredicted and incredibly awesome. -That Plucky/Chuck E. Cheese-type place looked properly annoying for just about any adult to go in. -The Jack Bauer/24-ant countdown clock with associated seem effect would be a nice touch. -Dean getting a cryptic conversation with Frank with an actual pay phone: "I'm the Egg Guy." Loved Sam's response to hearing it too. -Dean pointed out being from the hot chicks game for some time. A great move thinking about what went down to him within the last episode together with his one-evening stand and also the "daughter" who attempted to kill him. That's enough to obtain anybody to place a halt on all hookups immediately. Even Dean Winchester. Question how lengthy his moratorium can last? -We discover the genesis for Sam's fear. It appears when Large Dad Winchester was most likely away, Dean accustomed to ditch Mike at Plucky's so he may go get women. I do not blame Mike for developing this fear. What else was designed to happen? -I really like Mike saying the mantra Dean told him: "Whether it will bleed, you are able to kill it." -Loved all of the different names for that bad dreams that found existence: "Vamptopus" "Octopus" "Dractopus" "Land Shark" "Seabiscuit the Impaler" -Could it be me or did the vibe between your siblings appear a little more enjoyable? Mike was smiling more at Dean's jokes. More than ever before before. Even the poor quality ones. I loved that. -The dying by unicorn scene was great. Guy thought he was obvious from the danger. Then your horn comes piercing with the man's chest. Awesome. Loved once the unicorn was running and rainbows were being released of their ass. too -I love that Mike could acquire some punches in. Individuals clowns deserved it. -Obviously Dean really wants to purchase a giant Slinky. Obviously he is doing. -Love Mike looking to get tough using the Plucky employees. Love Dean attempting to help that kid after which the inability to consume the Plucky pizza since it tastes like "butt." -I never expected a Breaking Bad reference about this show. How awesome is the fact that? -Once the kid pointed out the robot had "laser eyes," all I possibly could think about was Ronald from Season 2's "Nightshifter" cheap he initially thought the frightening shape-shifter would be a Mandroid. -Kooky Plucky worker Howard was the reason. He'd each one of these bad dreams arrived at existence and off parents while he was clearly messed up -- he blamed his parents for his brother's dying. However the trigger seemed to be the truth that he did not obtain the manager's job. Would you imagine him as manager? I believe not. This episode was a disagreement against art therapy for children. -High cliff was the Plucky worker within the lion suit. I question when they named the smoothness following the show's bodyguard Clif Kosterman. -Following the 24 clock expires, here's the way they tell us we are in our: having a lower third in large type that states: RIGHT FRIGGIN' NOW. Obviously the neighborhood CW funnel covered a variety of it track of bugs and things like that. Boo. -Mike got glitter'd in addition to bruised up. But he faced his fear. Great for Mike. -Loved loved loved that last scene between Mike and Dean. Dean was full-on laughing. I recall him doing by using Castiel within an episode. However I do not ever remember this type of full laugh as he was with Mike. Maybe "Hell House" from Season 1? It had been nice. It had been also nice that Mike got Dean the large Slinky he wanted a lot. Obviously, Dean takes things a tad too far and will get Mike a stuffed clown. Not awesome, Dean. -I really like anytime the boys can discuss a few of their encounters once they were becoming an adult -- bad or good. And that we got a bit of of this within this episode. Dean even pointed out how father accustomed to haul him around as he would be a kid. "PPMM" would be a fun episode. We wanted something similar to this. The Winchester siblings haven't had much when it comes to fun inside a very long time. It has been lots of depression and loss and grief this year. And That I have that Sammy most likely does not think being pummelled by clowns is his type of fun but when it resulted for the reason that final scene, I am okay by using it. And in the looks from the sneak look for the following Supernatural, all of the fun is finished. And drama and Sam's hellucinations have returned. Plus, Dean appears like he's in quite the frightening predicament. Take it on. However, I might have to watch "PPMM" a few more occasions. Random Ideas -Did Dean really say "no booze?" Could he stop like this? I am talking about, I recieve it. He'd been imbibing as he had the main one-evening stand. But nonetheless. Let's wait and watch how lengthy his "no consuming" act lasts. -Are generally Mike and Dean turning out to be Danny Glover also known as Roger Murtaugh in the Lethal Weapon franchise? In "The Slice Women" Dean states he's "too old with this.Inch Now it's Sam's submit this episode. -Oh and apparently Fred Savage in the Question Years is really a Leviathan now. Love that. Some Favorite Lines (thanks to authors Andrew Dabb/Daniel Loflin) -"I'm the Egg Guy. Seriously, Frank. Pay phones? I am talking about, seriously. I am obtaining the clap off this factor just touching it." -"What exactly shall we be searching for? An octovamp? A vamptopus?" "That's crazy for us, right?" "It will push the envelope." -"Cops possess a theory?" "Yeah, they believe the ball washer made it happen.Inch "The what?" "The...ball washer." "The what?" "The ball..." -"Close, but no Seabiscuit." -"This is a shark bite." "Yeah." "And knowing through the radius, I'd say a 20-footer a minimum of. (Mike provides a look) Shark Week, guy. How can you not watch that? Entire week of sharks." "You frightened of robots?" "They've laser eyes!" -"Yeah, we do not care that you simply uh, you realize, broke bad or whatever." -"What exactly do you consider?Inch "I believe the bitchy mother plus uh, sad kid, plus uh place pad with something nuts written onto it equals crazy corpse." show less

So this is where we are going."And that is what went down with Tveit, who ultimately arrived charge in "Catch Me."Although it seems that McPhee's Karen is ensemble-bound, that does not imply that "Smash's" Marilyn will stay the same throughout the show's 15-episode run, thinking about Ivy's early bad behavior with Derek and also the high-profile role."I have done many of these training courses and reading through and there is no such factor as job stability," Broadway veteran Hilty ("Wicked") states. "You may be changed inside a heartbeat also it sets the stakes through the roof and makes people behave with techniques they would not normally behave."As the workshop role is Ivy's, it's anyone's guess whether it is a part she will hold onto, particularly with Karen likely landing within the ensemble.

WB snaps up comicbook 'Lucid'

To contact us Click HERE
Warner Bros. has picked up the rights to Archaia Entertainment's comicbook mini-series "Lucid" for writer-producer Akiva Goldsman to develop and produce as a potential new film franchise. Zachary Quinto's production banner Before the Door, which created the book, also is on board to adapt the property for the bigscreen. With "Harry Potter" having ended its run at the studio, WB is on the hunt for new projects to take its place. When it was first introduced at San Diego Comic-Con, in 2009, "Lucid" was described as a tale of what would happen to Harry Potter if he grew up and joined the CIA. Penned by "True Blood" thesp Michael McMillian and illustrated by Anna Wieszczyk, the four-book series takes place in a parallel universe where magic is real and world leaders have secret agents working to fight off supernatural threats. Main character is a young agent, recently appointed "Protector of the Realm," who must use his skills as a covert spy and combat mage to stop an occult technology dealer. No screenwriter has yet been hired to adapt the fantasy actioner. Archaia's editor-in-chief Stephen Christy would also serve as a producer on the pic. "Lucid" was the first comicbook to come out of Quinto's Before the Door banner with Archaia before following that up with "Mr. Murder is Dead," written by Victor Quinaz, with art by Brent Schoonover. The "Lucid" deal is the second for Archaia with Warner Bros. and Goldsman after recently setting up reclusive dinosaur-tale "Bolivar," based on the upcoming book from Sean Rubin, as an animated feature that Kerry Foster's Weed Road is also on board to produce and Kealan O'Rourke will write and direct.
