bedlamsbardYou know what I wish canon had given us? Obi-Wan going, at least a little bit, Dark Side for Anakin. You know. (I mean, I think the RotS novelization implied that Obi-Wan would go against all his Jedi principles for Anakin, but saying it is one thing and doing it is another. Plus, movie canon.)
It is probably not a coincidence that one of the earliest scenes in mind for "The Most Dangerous Man in the Galaxy" (should I ever get around to writing it *rolls eyes*) is the one where Obi-Wan pulls a lightsaber on Yoda when he sees Yoda. Or that the Clone Wars spy story has Obi-Wan going psycho on a couple Jedi when they threaten Anakin.
And, of course, it's, uh, practically canon that Anakin starts murdering people whenever someone he loves is hurt/threatened/killed. In movie canon, see: Sand People, Jedi Temple. If I'm not mistaken, there are a number of cases in the EU as well.
In other news: Supernatural. Shiny. In regards to "Bloodlust", I was wondering why Dean went so batshit crazy on Gordon. First thought is obviously, "Well, he's still screwed up over John's death," which is probably part of it, but you know what it is? It's where Gordon says he killed his sister when she was turned, and that Dean would do the same thing in the same situation. And the big reveal at the end of "Croatoan" hasn't come out yet, but that's it. That's Dean saying, no, he wouldn't, and it's ripping him apart.
Other thoughts: I love the scene at the beginning of "In My Time of Dying" where Sam has the Colt and turns it on the possessed truck driver. That's possibly my favorite scene in the whole ep, seconded by the one where Sam's watching Dean almost die -- you know, the one where he's got his face pressed against the doorframe and he looks like he's about to cry? That scene.
I like Ellen and Jo. (And yeah, I've seen the whole season except for "Roadkill" and "Heart", so I do, in fact, know what happens.) They're fun.
