Jared and Misha, Chicago con Breakfast
читать дальшеJared and Misha were running late due to traffic downtown from the marathon. There was a lot of table juggling for some reason as they had apparently not been set up properly. Several people were noting that instead of switching table numbers they were physically moving tables around the room involving not just people but plates and table contents.
In general I found the breakfast an inconvenient setup. I was sorry I had missed breakfast at the hotel, which had a wealth of stuff compared to the bagel-cereal-fruit offerings which were all that was available. As there were no trays, trying to juggle a glass of liquid with a cereal bowl and fruit plate while also carrying other things was only the start. Then trying to find a table (numbers were on silver reflective table stands) was such a mess, I was relieved to find an empty, numberless table in a corner where I was able to sit down and eat without dropping anything. Later they moved that table and I found the right one, and we were all able to sit closer to the front instead of the far left corner where we started. So I guess it all ended well.
When the organizers set up the mic stands they set one high and one very low and everyone laughed. They wanted to then change it but everyone called for them to leave it. So they said they'd blame it on us.
The whole thing flew by and it was very tough to capture much of it, plus questions were often inaudible. There were also things being called out to them from the audience through a lot of it which often derailed what they were saying. So, make of this what you will.
They came in and Jared immediately crouched down to take the lower mic while Misha tried to reset the tall one.
J: Was this a bad joke?
M: The first of many. (Drops mic stand)
J: Good morning, I woke up and everyone's running a marathon.
M: I was in it.
J: It started and we finished and took a shower. How do you like this season?
M: We've been waiting.
J: Have we seen Misha yet? Last night. That's right you were torturing the little kid.
(Someone thanks him for the topless Sam shots),
J: I didn't bring it up but since you did, I was talking with Misha, I was in the gym every day –-
M: Yeah he used to be in shape.
J: And it wasn't in the sсript, just "Sam takes his shirt off," no, it was "Sam does rapid fire pull ups"! I can't actually do this guys, maybe a year or two ago. Sam runs a sub 3 minute mile.
M: Yeah if the sсript says Sam eats donuts then –-
J: Right, that I could do.
M; And that would still be sexy.
J: Who bought the car? (Someone near the front raises her hand)
M: Park it next to the building, I'll go onto the top of the floors and jump on it.
Jared: We did this scene and what were you laying on? We shot this amazing stunt in Vancouver, so Misha jumps out the building but they did this (consults with Clif) a 50 ft fall, arm in arm jumped out, it made the front page of the Vancouver paper.
M: It's not hard to make the front page of the Vancouver paper.
Jared: (Either doesn't see water bottle or gets handed it by a security guy). Yeah then Misha was laying on the car and so Jensen and I are six floors up looking out the window –-
M: They threw broken glass at me.
J: We wanted to see if it could fly.
M: Totally legitimate.
J: We've came to the conclusion that glass does not fly properly. You can't toss it, you have to fling it. This is a big crowd, thanks guys. Ladies and gentlemen, Misha Collins!
M: And Jarrreeeeed Padalecki!
J: Who is you alls favorite Greek philosopher? Plato is my favorite. What do you think about Sam? Let's talk about me. (Inaudible overlapping comments) I was choosing to, I was – Sam's very financially concerned.
M: It's the stimulus program.
J: We have a very liberal president, part of the stimulus is to keep Sam employed, Sam has to pay for sex.
M: That does seem to be the conclusion. We know something's up with Sam because he's paying for sex.
J: Well he's talked about it before – (People call out about the comment in Lazarus Rising).
M: (To fans) I can't believe you know that!
J: I did say that in Lazarus Rising. (Referring to Genevieve) I am getting it, just not paying for it. (Tries to pretend he didn't say that).
M: Let's not let that get out of this room.
J: We find in episode 5 that Misha pays as well.
M: (To audience) Not Castiel, you misunderstood.
J: Sort of a non-sequitur.
(Audience: Congratulations on your baby!)
M: I can't wait to meet my biological son. (Calls about his and Jared's baby)
M: I don't know if you realize how this works. It has to be either one or the other. As soon as we get the tests back, we'll let you know.
(Calls about the gag reel, probably the shot where Jared tries to kiss Misha)
M: The gag reel, yes, we'll reenact it right now. I have no idea what you're talking about,
J: What gag reel? S5 is out, right? Am I farting again or something? Paying for sex? (Audience: When are you not farting?)
J: Right now. Do you have any questions?
(Someone starts to ask Misha something)
M: You're an engineer, I remember you. She always tries to get me to answer questions seriously and it always pisses me off.
(Some more inaudible questioning).
J: Look at him and look at me. He's a cute little thing. He's not aesthetically unpleasant, but he's what 1.30, 1.40. 20 lb weights in his pocket.
(Some question about pranks).
M: He tries.
J: I took it easy on him, so we sort of agreed to take off a while. Unless you put yourself into a position like leaving a phone at a crafts table. It wasn't me who slashed the tires. I'm looking for ideas. Not right now, but when he's not right next to me.
M: It's kind of scary because you know he's going to come back really hard. Like we had your vehicle turf war. He said "I could afford to total his car."
J: I have a great insurance policy. I was told when I started this job, people want to sue you when you're in the public eye, so I'm covered now. I could wreck his car and in all the time it would take him with all the paperwork –-
M: Right, and I'd have to buy you a new one.
J: It'd be fun to see him walking to work, juggling a baby and groceries. I could get Clif to drive by while I threw things out the window at him. It got scary, who knows how intense this can get
M: I have a feeling it's not over. Calm before the storm.
J: It's never over.
M: No it will eventually be over.
J: When one of us is dead.
Q: What was it like to have to take care of the baby in the last episode?
J: Jensen was a champ.
M: Did you know he can actually lactate?
J: Turns out it's a learned talent. It helped because the babies didn't have to go back to the mom. The original baby, we had twins for the first baby, then we needed a shorter haired baby, and the mother wouldn't let its hair get cut (goes on about other baby issues which was hard to follow).
M: In short there were a lot of babies, no scene has the same baby twice.
J: It sounds great if you read it on paper –- the baby cries in line at the grocery store. The problem is it's not that easy,
M: The baby was not a good actor.
J: We sued the mom and the baby's now in our custody. It was tough, we had a baby episode, followed by a dog episode, then followed by a child.
Q: You can have this one!
M: Clif, steal that baby.
(Guy asks something, apparently telling Misha he's great but has a question for Jared).
J: You rock, but you I want to talk to.
(Apparently a question about his broken arm).
J: S2? S3? Whenever I fall you guys catch me, yes, S2, when I broke my wrist.
It was funny, well not funny – touché. I have pockets full of it what do you want?
M: He does not sell drugs.
J: Right, but for cash, or for other better drugs. In this scene Sam gets hit by a telephone, and I was supposed to fall, and then act like I fell but I decided to do an actual fall. When I fell I landed on my hand to avoid the fallen stunt guy already on the floor. I told them (director/crew) "That one really hurt" but I couldn't move my wrist for a while. Then while filming the next episode it kept hurting, so I said I want the doctor to look at my hand. And he said "Oh it's broken." You need to get casted right away, but we were in the middle of the episode and we finish in 2 weeks. I got surgery and worked the next day but they had to shoot me full of drugs. I was walking down stairs and I fell. So they went "Jared go to your trailer." (Feigns dazedly happy) "OK!" Then they came to me later and I was "Am I on?" and they said, "You're wrapped." So I went home and wake up 4 hours later "Where have I been? What is this (cast)?" If you've ever had that done it's like you're in this weird dream for a while. This is nasty. They intubate you so your mouth is open for hours. And there was some water, I tell myself it was fresh water put there for me to help me sleep at night. When I got the cast taken out I didn't want them to put me under because it was so weird. And my brother, who is an orthopedic surgeon, said "You should watch them take that off" because he's all interested in how things work. Alright!
(Question: Weren't you in a bar fight? Seemed to be news to Misha.)
J: That was S1 and it was just my hand. We got jumped, I broke some of my metacarpals, there's nothing you can do, no surgery.
(Someone starts to ask Misha a question about clothing)
J: Enough with Misha. (Tries to block him, then tries to help him brush off his jacket).
M: (Joking) There's food on me but that's ok. Right after that, the next day, all my wardrobe was hung, the Castiel stuff, was all inside out. I put it on that way and everyone laughed.
J: Then he cried.
M: Then I cried. At that con, someone asked for the brand of the trenchcoat. So I asked Diane (wardrobe head), and she thought it was weird. She got back to me. Then the next day we were at the photoshoot where all the clothes got stolen. I think Diane thinks I did it "Suddenly, he was exhibiting a lot of curiosity." She was distraught!
J: We had a big mondo shoot, we have new promos, with sexy Dean when sexy Misha walks in –
M: And frumpy Sam in the back. It is pretty ridiculous, all this setup, lights and shadows, all these tight and sexy leathery clothes. Then the camera gets on you and you're all (makes sexy pose), you can't resist it! (Jared moves around stage also miming sexy poses).
J: My hair's not blowing enough, can we have more fans? That shoot was in LA on a Friday and they flew our clothes down on Tuesday or Wednesday and it all got stolen. The original Dean leather jacket, it was a one of a kind from a thrift store, his trenchcoat, some things that can be replaced.
M: And the clothes they got, I had this weird double breasted jacket –-
J: So Castiel.
M: I don't think any of those people had seen the show.
J: I don't think they knew we were on a show. Good luck with your movie! I remember they put this t-shirt on me it was very tethered and tight. I'm thinking this feels weird. And I asked someone "Is this shirt weird?" and she says "Yeah, but we can button it in the back to make it tighter." So not on the same wavelength. So that's what happened, I had clothespins in the back to make it tighter.
(Audience: Tight works very well for us!)
M: (To audience) Yes it does!
J: I appreciate that, it still feels funny.
(Someone asks Misha a question)
J: (Jared stomps mic stand against the floor) Enough of Misha!
(Audience: Careful you'll break the stage!)
M: It's worth a shot!
J: I want to ask your wife a question, just kidding.
(Asks Misha about Random Acts apparently),
J: The website, did you get that?
M: The website is a modern phenomenon, I think you could date that back to the telegraph and carrier pigeon, and pony express. Yes, Random Acts, also a website, non-profit –-
J: Which makes me a lot of money.
M: Is Lisa here, not here, aw for shame, so let's make fun of her! We raised almost 100K, we just sent some people back to Haiti with a bunch of tools to steal shit and bring it back. We're going to leverage it.
J: We'll send it to Goldman Sachs.
(Questioner says they're going to contribute).
M: They're going to make a donation and I think it would be nice if the rest of you did too.
(Another person tries to ask Misha a question and Jared tries to interrupt again)
M: Keep going, I have plants all over the audience. I had to buy a lot of Gold passes.
J: You have one guy "Oh Misha Misha!" then they run out the door and come in the other one, "Oh I have a question!"
(How is Misha's son's name pronounced?)
M: (Proundonces Uh-nax-eh-mander). It's pronounced the usual way!
J: Like it's spelled, we've all seen those damn key chains and they never have Jared, just Anaximander. Misha was so pissed off after all those years of not getting key chains at 6 Flags, he said, "My kid is not going to get them either."
M: My wife and I were mulling over names and we put up a website so friends could make suggestions. And we kept getting back to Anaximander –-
J: How did you get back there, how did you get there in the first place?
M: And we kept laughing every time we got to it, so we stuck with it.
(A diminutive woman asks if she could find out how tall she is compared to Jared.
Jared gets down from stage and goes to her table see how tall he is next to her – she came up to his knee – and then got all excited by her assistance dog. "Hellhound in training!" Pets dog, and then squeezes back through the tables and pretends to trip as he gets back up on stage. Misha then points out another assist dogs and he goes to pet it as well.)
J: Where are the other dogs? Life is hard.
(A guy from the back calls out to Jared)
Q: This one's for you! The work you've done for your this show is quite amazing –-
M: Your mic's not on.
J: Not only do you play a big guy but a bad guy, and I want to know –-
M: What is it like to work with Misha?
(Audience bursts out laughing)
Q: Was it hard for you to switch from good to bad guy on set?
J: Short answer is –- (he and Misha keep messing with mics) You've been playing the character for so long that it's hard not to be able to pull from a backstory, so you try to figure out what it's like to be Lucifer. But it's fun, sometimes you feel like a mouse in a wheel. I'd like to end with that question, because it's about me. Who else has a question for me?
(Some question about S6)
J: But it's not S6 amazing.
Q: Not yet!
J; Touche.
Q: Has it gotten easier, or are there new challenges?
J: It's harder, we feel the same thing, "Oh Season 6 we've made it!" But it's recreating, a different Dean, a different Sam, so you almost feel like – we'll finish Ep 9 on Wednesday, so we're almost halfway through the season and it's been tough.
M: With the babies and the dogs and the kids.
(Someone apologizes to Misha for having a Jared question).
J: He doesn't have feelings, it's all right.
Q: How much can you bench, Jared?
J: Right now, well before when I was in shape it was, what 355? (Consults Clif) But now it's down to to 352, 341, no, it's probably 315.
M: I don't know exact pounds, but how much does a Corolla weigh?
(They're told to wrap up)
M: We're done for now. We promise to be much more interesting later in the day.
UPD: появился транскрипт с панели Миша, Джаред, Дженсен.
Misha, Jared and Jensen, Chicago con Q&A
читать дальше
If there were only a complete video made of this panel. It was impossible to keep up with and for once I was perfectly happy for them to be asked any innocuous question as simply a platform for them to riff off of. Give three actors a stage and they will be ready to fill it.
Some exact quotes, mostly paraphrased.
(The con organizers explain that even though the program says Misha and Jared are doing a joint panel they will first be having Misha on, then Misha and Jared, and then just Jared since that's what people seem to want. A Castiel vid is played before the panel. Misha comes out and starts bopping to the music playing for 5 seconds before it cuts off.)
To see that video it seems like Cas is one badass fighting motherfucker. What it doesn't reveal is the Cas who most of the time is like "Tell me how to kiss a girl?" Someone lost their feather (picks it up from the stage). What were you doing on stage before I got here? Sacrificing a chicken? I think I still see some blood. There's a lot of people, is there a concurrent event going on? (Editorial: It was indeed quite full as the two people next to my right who had only showed up for Richard's panel so far this weekend, were there. I don't know how full the back rows were as we started a bit late, the auction ran over. But I wonder if everyone seemed so surprised because they had been told the event was undersold?
Speaking of the auction, there was a lifesize Impala poster that everyone was taking photos with over the weekend (not the best time for our camera to decide it has a light sensor problem and won't work). It went for $400, but I'm fairly sure any photo that size would have run at least $300, so not such a bad buy. I would have liked one of the con banners but none went for less than $250.)
Shall we jump right in? No, not you (he says to the person at the left mic. The one on the right starts talking but it's hard to hear her). She said you look very handsome today.
Q: I promised my mother I would ask you this because you are her favorite character.
M: Where is she?
Q: (Some family event)
A: Wow, where are your priorities? Tell her I said thank you. I'll sit down (he moves onto the chair on stage).
Q: We know the show has a lot of improv. AJ was telling us about how "chisel chest" was not scripted. How much improv gets on the air?
A: Pretty close to the end of S4 I did a fair amount of improv. I was starting to get comfortable enough on the show, and then the next episode there's a sсript supervisor (who keeps continuity), she came up and said "I just talked to Eric and the other producers in LA and they wanted you to not improvise anymore." They want you, specifically, to say what's on the page. They spend a lot of times trying to get the scripts perfect, and obviously when they get to us they're not any good, but we don't want to make them feel bad.
Q: The scene with the angel sigil mark on the chest, was that supposed to look as if you cut yourself with a knife? People say it looked painted on.
A: The truth is, I worked through a hell of a lot for people who think that. I'm permanently disfigured. I did it before coming in to shoot that morning with a straight razor and then they had a special effects person who obviously didn't have to do anything. I guess they were going to do a prosthetic. The shooting took longer than usual because I kept fainting from blood loss. Thanks for once again trying to ask a serious question. You got me once.
Q: In Swan Song (very quiet)
M: You want to use my mic? (The audience laughs and he does too after a beat. Then he does get up and go down to stand next to her as she asks the question with his mic).
Q: How did you guys get through the end of Swan Song?
A: I want my mic back. Thank you for braving that (being on screen with the mic). It was definitely draining, another feather (picks one up from stage), like when I exploded. That takes a lot out of you. You think it's more of a physical thing, but I felt like I'd been crying when I reconstituted myself. That was the most, I will give you one bit of earnest response. Seeing Jensen leaning up against the Impala as Jared disappeared into the pit. We didn't really have a pit to hell, but now I see how they worked the green tarp out. It was hard to look at him because his face was so disgusting, and then they put on that makeup! No, no. He went somewhere emotionally and he was definitely like – it's tough. You have to take yourself on an emotional roller coaster to deliver anything watchable. It drains you. (Begins to sniff) Thank you. Yes, let's applaud.
Q: What was the funnest episode to film?
M: Looking back at this montage, I did enjoy beating up Jensen, er, Dean up. There's different things about episodes that are fun to do, get into fights and cut people's fingers off, and yet those can be frustrating. The fight with Jensen in the alley has to be broken into a million little pieces and it takes all day and your knuckles are sore, not really, maybe. It's the banter that we have backstage, there's no stage, off screen! Sometimes for whatever reason it will be particularly ridiculous like MBV, but that was nonstop laughs, to the point where it got really frustrating. It's like an S, it's great, and then it's not fun anymore. Let's get off. (Screams for the double entendre) I did not see that bus coming, and did not get out of the way. (Next person comes to the mic). You have notes? Oh how exciting. That's cheating. (Tells the audience someone in the front row is trying to help him resolve the mic issue by showing him how to hold it close, but she looks like she's miming a blow job.)
Q: When you were on 24 –-
M: Whoa, inappropriate but ok.
Q: What would you think of having a 24ish episode of SPN in real time?
M: Oh, ok, fine. You waited in line all that time for a yes or no answer. How frustrating. So unfair how life throws these curve balls at us. Oh well, and you took notes and everything, used a little flashlight so as not to keep your roommate up. Best of luck to you. (Still unhappy with mic reverb). Can I try another mic? Am I crazy? (Likes new mic) Very smooth, I agree. I'm switching chairs now (to the other one on stage).
Q: I'm Jenna.
A: Hi, sorry I didn't ask.
Q: What's it like to work with Jared and how much have you learned from him?
A: Oh where to begin? Victor Frankel wrote an amazing book, Man's Search for Meaning, and he said it was really through the suffering in the concentration camp that he discovered it isn't our outward travails that matter but the way we deal with it that matters. Sitting in the Impala with Jared when he farts is a teaching experience. I think we can learn from that experience, especially when you can't roll down the window because it will fuck up the shot.
Q: That's a very Inside the Actors' Studio response, thank you.
A: Not method so much as just suffering.
Q: (The next person begins by mentioning how she started thinking about this question).
A: Thank you for the back story, "I started thinking of these in 1995."
Q: Back when cartoons were good, what was your favorite?
A: Oh, like My Little Pony? And JEM right? Pretty great show. Look it up. Dr. Who when I was really little. My classmates in 1st and 2nds grade were into it and it scared the shit out of me, I didn't know how they watched it. I liked the Dukes of Hazzard, my parents were separated and Friday night was the best night to go to your Dad's and watch TV, it was the best night for television. We fell asleep during Knight Rider. And people who are producers on this show worked on that show. Kim Manners, did. There are through lines, an old car, two brothers, I think it's the same tired old formula being hashed out. I don't know if that would make me Ennis. No, I'm not Daisy Duke! Why would we still know these things?
Q: We see a lot of different personalities for Castiel. If you had to choose a legacy, what would it be? Who would you like to go out with?
A: For me to go out with? If you had to date one of those Casses, druggy hippy Cas would be the most fun in the sack, but the question is do you want a drug addled loser hanging around all the time? He's not going to be bringing home the bacon. I like an amalgamation of all of them. I like where he's going this season. I just got the sсript for 6.10, I don't remember the names I know them by numbers. It looks good. Cas is going to get some! Not to spoil anything. Did I just hear a child? Ok, duly noted.
Q: If you could choose any character to live with, who would it be?
A: The Impala, I could ride around in. Lisa would be nice, Lisa would be nice. I hate to step on Dean's toes, but it would be nice to spend time with Lisa, and she has a nice house and a cute kid, and she's handy around the kitchen. Not Sam or Dean because they're always stuck in some sleazy motel. Plus, if you're living with one of them, you're living with the other. You have to wait for the bathroom. Crowley has great digs, you'd never even have to see each other. (Screams break out as Jared comes into the room and stands at the stage left mic)
JP: There are a lot of people! You're welcome for getting Misha offstage. (People start to protest about Misha leaving. Jared then agrees with the calls of "Stay!") What you can't see is that there's a dog in the front row who's is saying "I'm staying! I'm staying!"
M: We are the climax and you'll be the pillow talk.
JP: Has he been fun or do we need to liven this up a little bit?
M: Do you want to start at the back of the line? They never get to ask a question. With each second we waste – (brief bit where they pretend to stretch out time wasting moments).
JP: You've clearly bored the dogs, they're both prone.
M: He has no serious answers.
Q: In Vancouver Misha told a story about getting a text for his birthday which came in one letter at a time. I'm surprised no one asked you how much the bill was.
JP: Misha didn't have a Candian phone so I texted him Happy Birthday for his birthday. I have 2 phones, one for Canada for the US, and used the US phone by accident. Totally worth it though, right?
M: What I didn't tell you is that you woke me up with the text.
JP: But the call for Thailand I didn't get charged for. (Repeats the China call story from the Vancouver con).
(There are two people at the mic and they seem to be disagreeing.)
M: Now they have to fight for it. Mud wrestle for it. Is that a dry erase board you're holding?
Q: My friend lost her voice, so I was going to ask this for her. (Jared and Misha say they don't believe she actually lost her voice and insist she try to ask the question. The girl clearly did as her voice is squeaky and broken. Both of them find it hysterical and keep trying to make her talk. They then want to know how she got sick).
M: Did you fall down a well?
Q: Last week I was trying to rescue a dog -- (Both start laughing even harder, for having made fun of her. Jared pretends to run off the stage.)
M: This is fun! Tell us about yourself. We're going to have her ask our questions.
Q: Does it hurt your feelings when people call you a Gigantor? (Misha and Jared just find this even funnier).
JP: Yes, I need a hug (goes offstage to give her one). No, in all honesty. I didn't do it (not responsible for being tall) but I dig it. I'm going to use your voice for my character.
M: Would you pretend you lost your voice?
JP: Mostly for me, right?
M: It's your handicap.
Q: You've gone through a lot of persona changes, which ones were your favorites?
JP: CSI Miami. (Lots of calls for him to do it on stage, and JP demurs). Let's be honest, it has to be more organic, so if Misha is doing something funny and I want the attention back, I'll do it.
M: My favorite was Castiela, It wasn't something we ever shot but I had the most fun with her. (Jared puts on sunglasses and goes "Jackpot.")
JP: Jaredina and Casitela?
M: We spent time out at some really cool clubs at Vancouver, for business.
JP: Right, for research.
Q: Do either of you wear cologne and what kind?
JP: Britney Spears has this new line.
M: We all do. No, I rub the oil of a musk ox on myself.
JP: And then I rub it on myself (rubs his hands on Misha's chest and then his own), it's musk ox-Misha, I call it Synergism.
M: Do you wear cologne, cause you smell good.
JP: I do, I smell bad.
M: That's true, yeah.
JP: I'm a sweater, you'll probably notice I'm sweating, so I wear like Old Spice deodorant as the foundation –
M: The foundation, it's like a casserole.
JP: The noodles would be Old Spice High Endurance, and the carbonara would be Abercrombie's Fierce. Do I smell Fierce? And then the musk ox-Misha.
M: Jared does sweat, you work out too, and then you go into a scene, and he'll be "It's so hot! I need a new shirt!"
JP: (Mentions how there's a gym on set). Yes, all the girls are in coats and I'm like "It is so hot out here!" (Segue into talking about how women are subtle about checking their armpit smell). I love it when the arm goes up, plays with the hair (pretends to grab his own boob).
Q: (The next questioner says she's asking a question for her son when both recognize her little boy, who was at the Vancouver con? Jared brings Joshua up on stage to show everyone how he gives a great high five. He smacks both Jared and Misha's hands really hard though he looked like he was about to cry. Jared ushers him back to his mom.).
Q: He wanted to know how you became the angel on the show.
JP: We call it miscasting, someone dropped a ball somewhere.
M: It went to the wrong agent, and they said just give it to him, it's embarrassing now. I don't know if you know it but angels and elves are very similar and in real life I am an elf, I am a small eared elf --
JP: So you can imagine what the big eared elves are like --
M: -- so it was a good elf -- Here's a question for you, Joshua. If you could be an angel, elf, fairy or goblin, what would you choose? No, if you had to choose.
Q: An elf
M: Do we have any of those candies? The Aussies have brought some great candy, you should give some to Joshua, I think he'd like it. His mom doesn't get to have a say about that.
JP: (Prompted by seeing a guy from the breakfast who said he was asking the question about Jared's broken arm for his wife). Is this a question for your wife? Where is she?
M: I liked the foreplay. Ok, go.
Q: Jared, is it true that at one time while filming Asylum, you had Tom Welling in the backseat of the car?
JP: It's true. (Tells story about how Welling came to visit and snuck into the backseat without any of them knowing, then as the cameras rolled, Dean, Sam and Clark Kent got out of the car) I don't know why that wasn't on the gag reel. I think it was before anyone knew we were going a full season so we didn't have a gag reel started.
M: And you'd have to pay him a million dollars.
JP: Right, he could own the show.
Q: Misha, how do you get such great energy?
M: Talk to my pharmacist, I don't want to get anyone in the medical profession in trouble. (The guy then congratulates him on his son and goes up to shake his hand).
Q: (Fakes out Jared by seeming to address him and then saying it's for Misha).
JP: You asked about the bench press, (at the breakfast appearance) we weren't expecting it from you. We thought it would be something like "Who’s your favorite Jonas brother." No! Just kidding! (Runs off stage to give her a hug.)
Q: Misha are you anything like Castiel, do you stare awkwardly at people?
M: (Who stares silently at her for several moment) I'm very awkward, I don't understand.
JP: No sense of sarcasm.
M: But I'll keep going even when I don't need to anymore (he goes on to keep doing that as JP plays along).
JP: You've explained it fully.
Q: This is my first con –
JP: Welcome to the family!
Q: (She goes on to explain tediously how she needs to leave for work).
M: Are you asking for money for gas?
Q: (Drags it out about how she won't be around later and wants a hug. It looks like JP is going to comply).
M: Hold on, are you letting her get off this easy?
JP: The last girl had this disability
M: How should she earn it? (The girl then comes up on stage and stands talking to them, dragging things out further. Finally they go for a group hug but Jared hugs Misha instead and she ends up hugging JP – or as much of him as she can get her arm around).
M: Buy some shoes though, if you're going to work you need shoes.
JP: She said my hair is better than Misha's, I don't know what she's talking about (as he tosses it and runs his fingers through it).
Q: (Next questioner begins her question)
M: It's not just serious but well worded! Intelligent, a beacon.
JP: I can't wait to hear Misha's answer.
M: What was the question again?
Q: SPN has a mythological arc that portrays religious figures negatively, does it interfere with your personal religious feelings?
M: Satanism?
JP: I didn't hear "Jared", nor about your hair, we don't know about that kind of stuff.
M: Is anyone else doing a panel later?
JP: How does it portray them negatively? Lucifer?
Q: All the good angels are the ones who left heaven.
M: I'm going to have to second my friend Padalecki –-
JP: We’re not friends.
M: Just because we're sitting next to each other, ok, my stage mate.
JP: We're not mates.
M: We are not mating.
JP: If you read the Bible sometime --
M: What are you doing tomorrow?
JP: You'll see they're not portraying them as very sweet people, they're warriors, not the Anne Geddes babies.
M: With that question you're essentially taking the King James Bible to task.
JP: We’re not satantists as you are. Yeah, angels are warriors for heaven. The show is showing that there are warriors on both sides of the battle.
M: Thanks for whoever was talking into that earpiece (pretends he and Jared were being fed cues from someone else). We did portray God as a neurotic, alcoholic, prostitute- using writer.
JP: Well we didn't.
Q: Although Misha is my master, this question is for Jared. (Jared pretends to be all pleased that he got another question).
M: She did imply that I was her master.
Q: You play Sam as this guy who is a rawr Gigntor – (Jared and Misha both burst out laughing and Jared laughs so hard he falls on the ground. As he's lying there laughing, Jensen comes in and replaces the girl at the mic, who has her hands over her mouth, probably in shock. The audience screams so much I nearly have to go for my earplugs).
JA: Hi (All stuttery and shy).
M: It's not your turn.
JP: (Who manages to get himself off the stage and back in his chair) It's ok, you're not being judged.
M: Do you want to take a minute?
JA: This question is for Misha.
M: It's ok sweetie, go ahead.
JA: I was wondering if you could give us your best Dean impression? (The audience screams. Jared start laughing, and Misha knows he's been had. Jensen throws up his arms and does victory jumping, then goes up and crouches on stage near Misha's chair. Misha turns around for a moment, preparing, then with a squint and pout as he turns back around "Um Sam," something about the Impala).
JA: I was getting bored back there, I hope you don't mind guys (sits in the chair brought up for him on stage). Were you doing sit ups when I walked in (to Jared)?
JP: Can you ask that question again?
Q: Jensen, you totally Kanye West'ed me, what the hell?
M: That's funny. (Jensen goes to give her a hug).
JA: I am so rude, my mother would be ashamed. So what was happening?
Q: You smell really good.
JA: (Very Deanlike) Yeah, that's right.
Q: (Repeats her question about Jared playing Sam as a gigantor. JP and Misha say she didn't ask it the same way, it was funnier last time).
JA: I've been asking that question for 5 years.
JP: I play Sam as big and dumb Gigantor?
M: It's so convincing though
Q: What it's like in real life? Do you kick down doors and break things? (All of them find this hilarious).
JA: His life is a bull in a china shop.
JP: It's fun. I love to break stuff.
M: I remember the first con I went to with you guys with Australia. Maybe that wasn't the first, but it's the first I remember. I was getting ready to go out and I go to Jared's hotel room, he answers and he's got a towel wrapped around him and he says "Hang on, I'm trying to put the doors back on the closet."
JP: That is actually true. (Says something I didn't quite catch about how they ended up that way).
Q: I'd like to get an answer from Misha on something. We're doing a documentary on fandom and the psychology of it. I want to ask why you want to seek it out instead of running away from it?
JA: Would you really go straight for Misha Collins?
JP: The really obvious question is "Have you had your eyes checked?"
Q: Well, I am legally blind in one eye.
(They can hardly hear the last part of her statement because everyone is laughing so hard. Misha walks off stage and Jared runs off stage to hug her. Jensen puts on sunglasses and folds his hands. Jared comes back on stage and Jensen begins miming Stevie Wonder as he sings "Ma Cheri Amour." Misha comes back on stage wiping his eyes.)
M: I'm ok.
JA: There is a question still hanging in the air.
JP: (Something about comparing Misha to Steve Buscemi who is the hottest guy in this woman's eyes. The questioner says that with glasses she has 20/20 vision and she's fine. Jared asks again about the question).
M: She's doing a study on crazy people and wanted to know why it is that I seem to embrace fandom? What gives you that impression?
Q: You seem to have a more genuine relationship with your fans than most actors, like with your Twitter.
JA: I'll answer this, it's because Misha doesn't work and he has to do something.
M: I just love that you said my Twitter is a genuine relationship.
JA: Isn't Twitter a kind of one-sided thing though?
M: Like all good relationships are!
JA: I'll set them up all day for you, buddy.
Q: What would be your heaven if it was like the one shown on SPN?
M: For me, it's being on stage with these guys.
JA: That's a bunch of bullshit.
JP: Does that mean my heaven has to coincide with someone else's? Because if I have to be with these two that makes it automatically not my heaven.
JA: Anywhere not on stage with these two.
JP: He's like 'why did I come up here'?
(Audience: We love you Jensen!)
JA: Oh shut up. Right now my heaven is home.
M: So it's an imaginary place you never see.
JA: Exactly.
Q: In the show the Impala has a crucial role. I named my car after Castiel, who's my favorite character.
JP: So you ride in Casitel.
M: Let's have less double entendre.
JA: Does Castiel leak?
JP: Is it hard to get going?
Q: Yes.
M: That'll be Jared.
JP: It must be an automatic because you couldn't find the stick shift. (Audience Ooooohs).
M: They didn't like that one.
Q: What was your first car and did you have a name for it?
JP: A 69 Camaro.
JA: (Mocking him) I had a 69 Camaro. I didn't need to name it, it called me. I had an 88 Pathfinder and I called her Patty.
M: I had a 1979 Toyota Corolla station wagon, blue with wood paneling. It had 300,000 miles on it. it was rusted out badly, so I was constantly bonding the body, and I spray painted it. It looked like I was a hippy, and I got pulled over by cops all the time. I literally got pulled over one time doing 56 in a 55 MPH zone, and the cops searched my car.
Q: (They couldn't make out the question)
JP: Ronald Reagan?
Q: How did Sam feel when Cas admitted he has a stronger relationship with Dean?
JP: Cas saved Dean and that was part of the myth, so they knew each other from the beginning, and then Sam was inhabited by Lucifer. I don't think Sam cared.
JA: I'll have to ask Dean, I don't know
M: What a brilliant way to deal with this. That could have saved a lot time!
Q: Now that I have my name, rude lady #4 with a large camera – (Refers to how earlier she had jumped in to reply to something in a back and forth from the stage) I don't have a question for Jensen.
JA: Make something up
Q: You're very attractive.
JP: Now you've pissed him off.
JA: There's a question, dumbass
JP: "Now I have a question for the idiot."
Q: Your hair is just so lush.
JP: Stop. You have one hour to stop that immediately. Can we have more along those lines, please?
Q: Can you put your serious face on?
JP: Sure, watch this (audience screams).
Q: In what episode are you most proud of your work and which if any would you go back to review?
JP: I Know What You Did Last Summer, and to review, what was S1 called? Yeah, S1. It was a learning experience. I worked really hard in Heart and Last Summer.
M: I would go back to redo them so I was in them.
JA: I'd have to say The End and that's the one I wouldn't go back to redo.
M: That whole episode Jensen was in, he was (mimicks brain frying). He was a machine, plowing through it. I remember you were like "This is not happening again, it can't." You were on the phone with LA about that.
(Jensen begins pacing the stage mimicks going crazy, muttering to himself).
Q: (Next lady praises Jared because she didn't get the chance to do so because his con talk was eliminated in 2009. Jensen starts putting on his sunglasses. She goes on and ON. Jared walks over to give her cash. Jensen gets on his cell phone and walks to the back of the stage. Misha also pulls out his cell phone and then takes a camera phone shot of Jensen, who does this hilarious big grin pose. I hope to god Misha puts that picture on Twitter. Jared comes back on stage to sit down and so does Jensen.)
M: (To his cell phone) I'm sorry I can't talk right now. (Lady goes ON! Misha starts coughing. Lady wants audience to give Jared a standing ovation. Misha and Jensen leave the stage.)
JP: I'm blushing so much, I'm sweating (To Jensen and Misha backstage) You get applause too, come back! (Audience shouts for Jensen and Misha. They burst back on stage and audience gives everyone a standing ovation. They all lap it up. Jared pretends to try and see over the top of Misha when he stands in front of him).
JP: That's the sweetest thing I ever heard.
JA: I missed it.
M: Is that another "Padalecki" shirt? Oh-oh.
Q: Nicolas Cage said when he did Leaving Las Vegas that he'd eat a lot of junk food to get that drunk feeling for the film –
M: He really doesn't know how to get drunk then, does he?
JP: Maybe a few more Cheetos?
JA: Did you do something similar? He was wasted, as drunken Cas.
M: That was a spur of the moment rewrite, it was written sober and then I showed up.
JP: You were great! Now can we do one with your eyes open.
M: Oh, totally method, yeah.
JA: Trying to do method TV work would be impossible, a movie is a 4 month shoot, and there is an end in sight. On TV, we’d be living as a different person for the last 6 years.
M: (Pretending to be embarrassed) Yeah, that would be ridiculous.
JP: Come back to us.
Q: How would Jared portray Castiel?
JA: This is easy, he does this all the time on set. (Jared gets up and turns around for a moment, then starts walking like a robot back to his chair.)
JP: I raised you from perdition (in mechanical voice. They're all laughing but the audience is screaming with it).
JA: But now Castiel has changed so he has a new one. (JP disappears behind stage)
JA: He's not there!
JP: (Returning) 4 words!
JA: He is not there.
Q: What about Castiel in The End?
JA: This one's good, I like this one too. (Jared does a less mechanical walk and slouches, then delivers the same line, only sounding like Spicola from Fast Times).
Q: Misha, how did you feel about eating so many hamburgers as Jimmy?
M: I don't know how to take it easy on camera very well. Jensen was helping me out. He knows well how to eat burgers on camera, to spit it out at the end. I would be going for a bite and he would slap the burger out of my hand.
JA: You really were mowing a lot of burgers. I was just "Oh buddy", after one take. So not good. Even when the camera was on my coverage he'd be eating! Stop dude, you're going to make me throw up.
(The Q&A is running out of time so the many people still waiting in line are told to go sit down. The guys are momentarily confused by why everyone seems to be going away).
M: What was worse was the raw meat I had to eat in MBV. It was disgusting, raw uncooked veggie sausage with tomato paste. It's gross when cooked and not cooked it's worse. Point is I was eating a lot when the camera wasn't on me.
JA: I decided not to tell him that time.
Q: (Introduces herself.)
JP: Hi, I'm Jared, this is Misha, and that's Jensen with an "n" on the end.
Q: Misha, how do you play a straight-faced character when Dean throws all this stuff at you?
M: I have ruined more takes than anyone else, when I start laughing. It's rare we get shots. I have to bite my cheeks.
JP: When you first came on –-
JA: You were bad.
JP: He's gotten better.
JA: Jared likes to screw with people on their coverage. I learned very early to ignore him.
M: He's a stone, it's amazing.
JA: You've come a long way now too. I see that the acting goes away. But he doesn't break (Jensen pretends to be straight faced without being able to laugh).
JP: You were a mess in the motel!
M: I don't remember that one.
JP: You remember the one, with the motel, and the thing! (They go on with the joke about how half the scenes take place that way).
M: I imagine that's it.
JA: No more questions, well alright. (They all get up, Misha namastes. Jensen immediately moves to the left side of the stage to start signing the banners there. Jensen slapped Misha's butt to get him to come and sign banners as well. Misha kept trying to joggle Jensen's arm. Misha can't reach the spot by his photo. Jared, who has gone backstage to get a pen, head butts him as he comes back on, almost knocking him over. Needless to say, Jared has no trouble signing the banners).

Jared and Misha, Chicago con Breakfast
читать дальшеJared and Misha were running late due to traffic downtown from the marathon. There was a lot of table juggling for some reason as they had apparently not been set up properly. Several people were noting that instead of switching table numbers they were physically moving tables around the room involving not just people but plates and table contents.
In general I found the breakfast an inconvenient setup. I was sorry I had missed breakfast at the hotel, which had a wealth of stuff compared to the bagel-cereal-fruit offerings which were all that was available. As there were no trays, trying to juggle a glass of liquid with a cereal bowl and fruit plate while also carrying other things was only the start. Then trying to find a table (numbers were on silver reflective table stands) was such a mess, I was relieved to find an empty, numberless table in a corner where I was able to sit down and eat without dropping anything. Later they moved that table and I found the right one, and we were all able to sit closer to the front instead of the far left corner where we started. So I guess it all ended well.
When the organizers set up the mic stands they set one high and one very low and everyone laughed. They wanted to then change it but everyone called for them to leave it. So they said they'd blame it on us.
The whole thing flew by and it was very tough to capture much of it, plus questions were often inaudible. There were also things being called out to them from the audience through a lot of it which often derailed what they were saying. So, make of this what you will.
They came in and Jared immediately crouched down to take the lower mic while Misha tried to reset the tall one.
J: Was this a bad joke?
M: The first of many. (Drops mic stand)
J: Good morning, I woke up and everyone's running a marathon.
M: I was in it.
J: It started and we finished and took a shower. How do you like this season?
M: We've been waiting.
J: Have we seen Misha yet? Last night. That's right you were torturing the little kid.
(Someone thanks him for the topless Sam shots),
J: I didn't bring it up but since you did, I was talking with Misha, I was in the gym every day –-
M: Yeah he used to be in shape.
J: And it wasn't in the sсript, just "Sam takes his shirt off," no, it was "Sam does rapid fire pull ups"! I can't actually do this guys, maybe a year or two ago. Sam runs a sub 3 minute mile.
M: Yeah if the sсript says Sam eats donuts then –-
J: Right, that I could do.
M; And that would still be sexy.
J: Who bought the car? (Someone near the front raises her hand)
M: Park it next to the building, I'll go onto the top of the floors and jump on it.
Jared: We did this scene and what were you laying on? We shot this amazing stunt in Vancouver, so Misha jumps out the building but they did this (consults with Clif) a 50 ft fall, arm in arm jumped out, it made the front page of the Vancouver paper.
M: It's not hard to make the front page of the Vancouver paper.
Jared: (Either doesn't see water bottle or gets handed it by a security guy). Yeah then Misha was laying on the car and so Jensen and I are six floors up looking out the window –-
M: They threw broken glass at me.
J: We wanted to see if it could fly.
M: Totally legitimate.
J: We've came to the conclusion that glass does not fly properly. You can't toss it, you have to fling it. This is a big crowd, thanks guys. Ladies and gentlemen, Misha Collins!
M: And Jarrreeeeed Padalecki!
J: Who is you alls favorite Greek philosopher? Plato is my favorite. What do you think about Sam? Let's talk about me. (Inaudible overlapping comments) I was choosing to, I was – Sam's very financially concerned.
M: It's the stimulus program.
J: We have a very liberal president, part of the stimulus is to keep Sam employed, Sam has to pay for sex.
M: That does seem to be the conclusion. We know something's up with Sam because he's paying for sex.
J: Well he's talked about it before – (People call out about the comment in Lazarus Rising).
M: (To fans) I can't believe you know that!
J: I did say that in Lazarus Rising. (Referring to Genevieve) I am getting it, just not paying for it. (Tries to pretend he didn't say that).
M: Let's not let that get out of this room.
J: We find in episode 5 that Misha pays as well.
M: (To audience) Not Castiel, you misunderstood.
J: Sort of a non-sequitur.
(Audience: Congratulations on your baby!)
M: I can't wait to meet my biological son. (Calls about his and Jared's baby)
M: I don't know if you realize how this works. It has to be either one or the other. As soon as we get the tests back, we'll let you know.
(Calls about the gag reel, probably the shot where Jared tries to kiss Misha)
M: The gag reel, yes, we'll reenact it right now. I have no idea what you're talking about,
J: What gag reel? S5 is out, right? Am I farting again or something? Paying for sex? (Audience: When are you not farting?)
J: Right now. Do you have any questions?
(Someone starts to ask Misha something)
M: You're an engineer, I remember you. She always tries to get me to answer questions seriously and it always pisses me off.
(Some more inaudible questioning).
J: Look at him and look at me. He's a cute little thing. He's not aesthetically unpleasant, but he's what 1.30, 1.40. 20 lb weights in his pocket.
(Some question about pranks).
M: He tries.
J: I took it easy on him, so we sort of agreed to take off a while. Unless you put yourself into a position like leaving a phone at a crafts table. It wasn't me who slashed the tires. I'm looking for ideas. Not right now, but when he's not right next to me.
M: It's kind of scary because you know he's going to come back really hard. Like we had your vehicle turf war. He said "I could afford to total his car."
J: I have a great insurance policy. I was told when I started this job, people want to sue you when you're in the public eye, so I'm covered now. I could wreck his car and in all the time it would take him with all the paperwork –-
M: Right, and I'd have to buy you a new one.
J: It'd be fun to see him walking to work, juggling a baby and groceries. I could get Clif to drive by while I threw things out the window at him. It got scary, who knows how intense this can get
M: I have a feeling it's not over. Calm before the storm.
J: It's never over.
M: No it will eventually be over.
J: When one of us is dead.
Q: What was it like to have to take care of the baby in the last episode?
J: Jensen was a champ.
M: Did you know he can actually lactate?
J: Turns out it's a learned talent. It helped because the babies didn't have to go back to the mom. The original baby, we had twins for the first baby, then we needed a shorter haired baby, and the mother wouldn't let its hair get cut (goes on about other baby issues which was hard to follow).
M: In short there were a lot of babies, no scene has the same baby twice.
J: It sounds great if you read it on paper –- the baby cries in line at the grocery store. The problem is it's not that easy,
M: The baby was not a good actor.
J: We sued the mom and the baby's now in our custody. It was tough, we had a baby episode, followed by a dog episode, then followed by a child.
Q: You can have this one!
M: Clif, steal that baby.
(Guy asks something, apparently telling Misha he's great but has a question for Jared).
J: You rock, but you I want to talk to.
(Apparently a question about his broken arm).
J: S2? S3? Whenever I fall you guys catch me, yes, S2, when I broke my wrist.
It was funny, well not funny – touché. I have pockets full of it what do you want?
M: He does not sell drugs.
J: Right, but for cash, or for other better drugs. In this scene Sam gets hit by a telephone, and I was supposed to fall, and then act like I fell but I decided to do an actual fall. When I fell I landed on my hand to avoid the fallen stunt guy already on the floor. I told them (director/crew) "That one really hurt" but I couldn't move my wrist for a while. Then while filming the next episode it kept hurting, so I said I want the doctor to look at my hand. And he said "Oh it's broken." You need to get casted right away, but we were in the middle of the episode and we finish in 2 weeks. I got surgery and worked the next day but they had to shoot me full of drugs. I was walking down stairs and I fell. So they went "Jared go to your trailer." (Feigns dazedly happy) "OK!" Then they came to me later and I was "Am I on?" and they said, "You're wrapped." So I went home and wake up 4 hours later "Where have I been? What is this (cast)?" If you've ever had that done it's like you're in this weird dream for a while. This is nasty. They intubate you so your mouth is open for hours. And there was some water, I tell myself it was fresh water put there for me to help me sleep at night. When I got the cast taken out I didn't want them to put me under because it was so weird. And my brother, who is an orthopedic surgeon, said "You should watch them take that off" because he's all interested in how things work. Alright!
(Question: Weren't you in a bar fight? Seemed to be news to Misha.)
J: That was S1 and it was just my hand. We got jumped, I broke some of my metacarpals, there's nothing you can do, no surgery.
(Someone starts to ask Misha a question about clothing)
J: Enough with Misha. (Tries to block him, then tries to help him brush off his jacket).
M: (Joking) There's food on me but that's ok. Right after that, the next day, all my wardrobe was hung, the Castiel stuff, was all inside out. I put it on that way and everyone laughed.
J: Then he cried.
M: Then I cried. At that con, someone asked for the brand of the trenchcoat. So I asked Diane (wardrobe head), and she thought it was weird. She got back to me. Then the next day we were at the photoshoot where all the clothes got stolen. I think Diane thinks I did it "Suddenly, he was exhibiting a lot of curiosity." She was distraught!
J: We had a big mondo shoot, we have new promos, with sexy Dean when sexy Misha walks in –
M: And frumpy Sam in the back. It is pretty ridiculous, all this setup, lights and shadows, all these tight and sexy leathery clothes. Then the camera gets on you and you're all (makes sexy pose), you can't resist it! (Jared moves around stage also miming sexy poses).
J: My hair's not blowing enough, can we have more fans? That shoot was in LA on a Friday and they flew our clothes down on Tuesday or Wednesday and it all got stolen. The original Dean leather jacket, it was a one of a kind from a thrift store, his trenchcoat, some things that can be replaced.
M: And the clothes they got, I had this weird double breasted jacket –-
J: So Castiel.
M: I don't think any of those people had seen the show.
J: I don't think they knew we were on a show. Good luck with your movie! I remember they put this t-shirt on me it was very tethered and tight. I'm thinking this feels weird. And I asked someone "Is this shirt weird?" and she says "Yeah, but we can button it in the back to make it tighter." So not on the same wavelength. So that's what happened, I had clothespins in the back to make it tighter.
(Audience: Tight works very well for us!)
M: (To audience) Yes it does!
J: I appreciate that, it still feels funny.
(Someone asks Misha a question)
J: (Jared stomps mic stand against the floor) Enough of Misha!
(Audience: Careful you'll break the stage!)
M: It's worth a shot!
J: I want to ask your wife a question, just kidding.
(Asks Misha about Random Acts apparently),
J: The website, did you get that?
M: The website is a modern phenomenon, I think you could date that back to the telegraph and carrier pigeon, and pony express. Yes, Random Acts, also a website, non-profit –-
J: Which makes me a lot of money.
M: Is Lisa here, not here, aw for shame, so let's make fun of her! We raised almost 100K, we just sent some people back to Haiti with a bunch of tools to steal shit and bring it back. We're going to leverage it.
J: We'll send it to Goldman Sachs.
(Questioner says they're going to contribute).
M: They're going to make a donation and I think it would be nice if the rest of you did too.
(Another person tries to ask Misha a question and Jared tries to interrupt again)
M: Keep going, I have plants all over the audience. I had to buy a lot of Gold passes.
J: You have one guy "Oh Misha Misha!" then they run out the door and come in the other one, "Oh I have a question!"
(How is Misha's son's name pronounced?)
M: (Proundonces Uh-nax-eh-mander). It's pronounced the usual way!
J: Like it's spelled, we've all seen those damn key chains and they never have Jared, just Anaximander. Misha was so pissed off after all those years of not getting key chains at 6 Flags, he said, "My kid is not going to get them either."
M: My wife and I were mulling over names and we put up a website so friends could make suggestions. And we kept getting back to Anaximander –-
J: How did you get back there, how did you get there in the first place?
M: And we kept laughing every time we got to it, so we stuck with it.
(A diminutive woman asks if she could find out how tall she is compared to Jared.
Jared gets down from stage and goes to her table see how tall he is next to her – she came up to his knee – and then got all excited by her assistance dog. "Hellhound in training!" Pets dog, and then squeezes back through the tables and pretends to trip as he gets back up on stage. Misha then points out another assist dogs and he goes to pet it as well.)
J: Where are the other dogs? Life is hard.
(A guy from the back calls out to Jared)
Q: This one's for you! The work you've done for your this show is quite amazing –-
M: Your mic's not on.
J: Not only do you play a big guy but a bad guy, and I want to know –-
M: What is it like to work with Misha?
(Audience bursts out laughing)
Q: Was it hard for you to switch from good to bad guy on set?
J: Short answer is –- (he and Misha keep messing with mics) You've been playing the character for so long that it's hard not to be able to pull from a backstory, so you try to figure out what it's like to be Lucifer. But it's fun, sometimes you feel like a mouse in a wheel. I'd like to end with that question, because it's about me. Who else has a question for me?
(Some question about S6)
J: But it's not S6 amazing.
Q: Not yet!
J; Touche.
Q: Has it gotten easier, or are there new challenges?
J: It's harder, we feel the same thing, "Oh Season 6 we've made it!" But it's recreating, a different Dean, a different Sam, so you almost feel like – we'll finish Ep 9 on Wednesday, so we're almost halfway through the season and it's been tough.
M: With the babies and the dogs and the kids.
(Someone apologizes to Misha for having a Jared question).
J: He doesn't have feelings, it's all right.
Q: How much can you bench, Jared?
J: Right now, well before when I was in shape it was, what 355? (Consults Clif) But now it's down to to 352, 341, no, it's probably 315.
M: I don't know exact pounds, but how much does a Corolla weigh?
(They're told to wrap up)
M: We're done for now. We promise to be much more interesting later in the day.
UPD: появился транскрипт с панели Миша, Джаред, Дженсен.
Misha, Jared and Jensen, Chicago con Q&A
читать дальше
If there were only a complete video made of this panel. It was impossible to keep up with and for once I was perfectly happy for them to be asked any innocuous question as simply a platform for them to riff off of. Give three actors a stage and they will be ready to fill it.
Some exact quotes, mostly paraphrased.
(The con organizers explain that even though the program says Misha and Jared are doing a joint panel they will first be having Misha on, then Misha and Jared, and then just Jared since that's what people seem to want. A Castiel vid is played before the panel. Misha comes out and starts bopping to the music playing for 5 seconds before it cuts off.)
To see that video it seems like Cas is one badass fighting motherfucker. What it doesn't reveal is the Cas who most of the time is like "Tell me how to kiss a girl?" Someone lost their feather (picks it up from the stage). What were you doing on stage before I got here? Sacrificing a chicken? I think I still see some blood. There's a lot of people, is there a concurrent event going on? (Editorial: It was indeed quite full as the two people next to my right who had only showed up for Richard's panel so far this weekend, were there. I don't know how full the back rows were as we started a bit late, the auction ran over. But I wonder if everyone seemed so surprised because they had been told the event was undersold?
Speaking of the auction, there was a lifesize Impala poster that everyone was taking photos with over the weekend (not the best time for our camera to decide it has a light sensor problem and won't work). It went for $400, but I'm fairly sure any photo that size would have run at least $300, so not such a bad buy. I would have liked one of the con banners but none went for less than $250.)
Shall we jump right in? No, not you (he says to the person at the left mic. The one on the right starts talking but it's hard to hear her). She said you look very handsome today.
Q: I promised my mother I would ask you this because you are her favorite character.
M: Where is she?
Q: (Some family event)
A: Wow, where are your priorities? Tell her I said thank you. I'll sit down (he moves onto the chair on stage).
Q: We know the show has a lot of improv. AJ was telling us about how "chisel chest" was not scripted. How much improv gets on the air?
A: Pretty close to the end of S4 I did a fair amount of improv. I was starting to get comfortable enough on the show, and then the next episode there's a sсript supervisor (who keeps continuity), she came up and said "I just talked to Eric and the other producers in LA and they wanted you to not improvise anymore." They want you, specifically, to say what's on the page. They spend a lot of times trying to get the scripts perfect, and obviously when they get to us they're not any good, but we don't want to make them feel bad.
Q: The scene with the angel sigil mark on the chest, was that supposed to look as if you cut yourself with a knife? People say it looked painted on.
A: The truth is, I worked through a hell of a lot for people who think that. I'm permanently disfigured. I did it before coming in to shoot that morning with a straight razor and then they had a special effects person who obviously didn't have to do anything. I guess they were going to do a prosthetic. The shooting took longer than usual because I kept fainting from blood loss. Thanks for once again trying to ask a serious question. You got me once.
Q: In Swan Song (very quiet)
M: You want to use my mic? (The audience laughs and he does too after a beat. Then he does get up and go down to stand next to her as she asks the question with his mic).
Q: How did you guys get through the end of Swan Song?
A: I want my mic back. Thank you for braving that (being on screen with the mic). It was definitely draining, another feather (picks one up from stage), like when I exploded. That takes a lot out of you. You think it's more of a physical thing, but I felt like I'd been crying when I reconstituted myself. That was the most, I will give you one bit of earnest response. Seeing Jensen leaning up against the Impala as Jared disappeared into the pit. We didn't really have a pit to hell, but now I see how they worked the green tarp out. It was hard to look at him because his face was so disgusting, and then they put on that makeup! No, no. He went somewhere emotionally and he was definitely like – it's tough. You have to take yourself on an emotional roller coaster to deliver anything watchable. It drains you. (Begins to sniff) Thank you. Yes, let's applaud.
Q: What was the funnest episode to film?
M: Looking back at this montage, I did enjoy beating up Jensen, er, Dean up. There's different things about episodes that are fun to do, get into fights and cut people's fingers off, and yet those can be frustrating. The fight with Jensen in the alley has to be broken into a million little pieces and it takes all day and your knuckles are sore, not really, maybe. It's the banter that we have backstage, there's no stage, off screen! Sometimes for whatever reason it will be particularly ridiculous like MBV, but that was nonstop laughs, to the point where it got really frustrating. It's like an S, it's great, and then it's not fun anymore. Let's get off. (Screams for the double entendre) I did not see that bus coming, and did not get out of the way. (Next person comes to the mic). You have notes? Oh how exciting. That's cheating. (Tells the audience someone in the front row is trying to help him resolve the mic issue by showing him how to hold it close, but she looks like she's miming a blow job.)
Q: When you were on 24 –-
M: Whoa, inappropriate but ok.
Q: What would you think of having a 24ish episode of SPN in real time?
M: Oh, ok, fine. You waited in line all that time for a yes or no answer. How frustrating. So unfair how life throws these curve balls at us. Oh well, and you took notes and everything, used a little flashlight so as not to keep your roommate up. Best of luck to you. (Still unhappy with mic reverb). Can I try another mic? Am I crazy? (Likes new mic) Very smooth, I agree. I'm switching chairs now (to the other one on stage).
Q: I'm Jenna.
A: Hi, sorry I didn't ask.
Q: What's it like to work with Jared and how much have you learned from him?
A: Oh where to begin? Victor Frankel wrote an amazing book, Man's Search for Meaning, and he said it was really through the suffering in the concentration camp that he discovered it isn't our outward travails that matter but the way we deal with it that matters. Sitting in the Impala with Jared when he farts is a teaching experience. I think we can learn from that experience, especially when you can't roll down the window because it will fuck up the shot.
Q: That's a very Inside the Actors' Studio response, thank you.
A: Not method so much as just suffering.
Q: (The next person begins by mentioning how she started thinking about this question).
A: Thank you for the back story, "I started thinking of these in 1995."
Q: Back when cartoons were good, what was your favorite?
A: Oh, like My Little Pony? And JEM right? Pretty great show. Look it up. Dr. Who when I was really little. My classmates in 1st and 2nds grade were into it and it scared the shit out of me, I didn't know how they watched it. I liked the Dukes of Hazzard, my parents were separated and Friday night was the best night to go to your Dad's and watch TV, it was the best night for television. We fell asleep during Knight Rider. And people who are producers on this show worked on that show. Kim Manners, did. There are through lines, an old car, two brothers, I think it's the same tired old formula being hashed out. I don't know if that would make me Ennis. No, I'm not Daisy Duke! Why would we still know these things?
Q: We see a lot of different personalities for Castiel. If you had to choose a legacy, what would it be? Who would you like to go out with?
A: For me to go out with? If you had to date one of those Casses, druggy hippy Cas would be the most fun in the sack, but the question is do you want a drug addled loser hanging around all the time? He's not going to be bringing home the bacon. I like an amalgamation of all of them. I like where he's going this season. I just got the sсript for 6.10, I don't remember the names I know them by numbers. It looks good. Cas is going to get some! Not to spoil anything. Did I just hear a child? Ok, duly noted.
Q: If you could choose any character to live with, who would it be?
A: The Impala, I could ride around in. Lisa would be nice, Lisa would be nice. I hate to step on Dean's toes, but it would be nice to spend time with Lisa, and she has a nice house and a cute kid, and she's handy around the kitchen. Not Sam or Dean because they're always stuck in some sleazy motel. Plus, if you're living with one of them, you're living with the other. You have to wait for the bathroom. Crowley has great digs, you'd never even have to see each other. (Screams break out as Jared comes into the room and stands at the stage left mic)
JP: There are a lot of people! You're welcome for getting Misha offstage. (People start to protest about Misha leaving. Jared then agrees with the calls of "Stay!") What you can't see is that there's a dog in the front row who's is saying "I'm staying! I'm staying!"
M: We are the climax and you'll be the pillow talk.
JP: Has he been fun or do we need to liven this up a little bit?
M: Do you want to start at the back of the line? They never get to ask a question. With each second we waste – (brief bit where they pretend to stretch out time wasting moments).
JP: You've clearly bored the dogs, they're both prone.
M: He has no serious answers.
Q: In Vancouver Misha told a story about getting a text for his birthday which came in one letter at a time. I'm surprised no one asked you how much the bill was.
JP: Misha didn't have a Candian phone so I texted him Happy Birthday for his birthday. I have 2 phones, one for Canada for the US, and used the US phone by accident. Totally worth it though, right?
M: What I didn't tell you is that you woke me up with the text.
JP: But the call for Thailand I didn't get charged for. (Repeats the China call story from the Vancouver con).
(There are two people at the mic and they seem to be disagreeing.)
M: Now they have to fight for it. Mud wrestle for it. Is that a dry erase board you're holding?
Q: My friend lost her voice, so I was going to ask this for her. (Jared and Misha say they don't believe she actually lost her voice and insist she try to ask the question. The girl clearly did as her voice is squeaky and broken. Both of them find it hysterical and keep trying to make her talk. They then want to know how she got sick).
M: Did you fall down a well?
Q: Last week I was trying to rescue a dog -- (Both start laughing even harder, for having made fun of her. Jared pretends to run off the stage.)
M: This is fun! Tell us about yourself. We're going to have her ask our questions.
Q: Does it hurt your feelings when people call you a Gigantor? (Misha and Jared just find this even funnier).
JP: Yes, I need a hug (goes offstage to give her one). No, in all honesty. I didn't do it (not responsible for being tall) but I dig it. I'm going to use your voice for my character.
M: Would you pretend you lost your voice?
JP: Mostly for me, right?
M: It's your handicap.
Q: You've gone through a lot of persona changes, which ones were your favorites?
JP: CSI Miami. (Lots of calls for him to do it on stage, and JP demurs). Let's be honest, it has to be more organic, so if Misha is doing something funny and I want the attention back, I'll do it.
M: My favorite was Castiela, It wasn't something we ever shot but I had the most fun with her. (Jared puts on sunglasses and goes "Jackpot.")
JP: Jaredina and Casitela?
M: We spent time out at some really cool clubs at Vancouver, for business.
JP: Right, for research.
Q: Do either of you wear cologne and what kind?
JP: Britney Spears has this new line.
M: We all do. No, I rub the oil of a musk ox on myself.
JP: And then I rub it on myself (rubs his hands on Misha's chest and then his own), it's musk ox-Misha, I call it Synergism.
M: Do you wear cologne, cause you smell good.
JP: I do, I smell bad.
M: That's true, yeah.
JP: I'm a sweater, you'll probably notice I'm sweating, so I wear like Old Spice deodorant as the foundation –
M: The foundation, it's like a casserole.
JP: The noodles would be Old Spice High Endurance, and the carbonara would be Abercrombie's Fierce. Do I smell Fierce? And then the musk ox-Misha.
M: Jared does sweat, you work out too, and then you go into a scene, and he'll be "It's so hot! I need a new shirt!"
JP: (Mentions how there's a gym on set). Yes, all the girls are in coats and I'm like "It is so hot out here!" (Segue into talking about how women are subtle about checking their armpit smell). I love it when the arm goes up, plays with the hair (pretends to grab his own boob).
Q: (The next questioner says she's asking a question for her son when both recognize her little boy, who was at the Vancouver con? Jared brings Joshua up on stage to show everyone how he gives a great high five. He smacks both Jared and Misha's hands really hard though he looked like he was about to cry. Jared ushers him back to his mom.).
Q: He wanted to know how you became the angel on the show.
JP: We call it miscasting, someone dropped a ball somewhere.
M: It went to the wrong agent, and they said just give it to him, it's embarrassing now. I don't know if you know it but angels and elves are very similar and in real life I am an elf, I am a small eared elf --
JP: So you can imagine what the big eared elves are like --
M: -- so it was a good elf -- Here's a question for you, Joshua. If you could be an angel, elf, fairy or goblin, what would you choose? No, if you had to choose.
Q: An elf
M: Do we have any of those candies? The Aussies have brought some great candy, you should give some to Joshua, I think he'd like it. His mom doesn't get to have a say about that.
JP: (Prompted by seeing a guy from the breakfast who said he was asking the question about Jared's broken arm for his wife). Is this a question for your wife? Where is she?
M: I liked the foreplay. Ok, go.
Q: Jared, is it true that at one time while filming Asylum, you had Tom Welling in the backseat of the car?
JP: It's true. (Tells story about how Welling came to visit and snuck into the backseat without any of them knowing, then as the cameras rolled, Dean, Sam and Clark Kent got out of the car) I don't know why that wasn't on the gag reel. I think it was before anyone knew we were going a full season so we didn't have a gag reel started.
M: And you'd have to pay him a million dollars.
JP: Right, he could own the show.
Q: Misha, how do you get such great energy?
M: Talk to my pharmacist, I don't want to get anyone in the medical profession in trouble. (The guy then congratulates him on his son and goes up to shake his hand).
Q: (Fakes out Jared by seeming to address him and then saying it's for Misha).
JP: You asked about the bench press, (at the breakfast appearance) we weren't expecting it from you. We thought it would be something like "Who’s your favorite Jonas brother." No! Just kidding! (Runs off stage to give her a hug.)
Q: Misha are you anything like Castiel, do you stare awkwardly at people?
M: (Who stares silently at her for several moment) I'm very awkward, I don't understand.
JP: No sense of sarcasm.
M: But I'll keep going even when I don't need to anymore (he goes on to keep doing that as JP plays along).
JP: You've explained it fully.
Q: This is my first con –
JP: Welcome to the family!
Q: (She goes on to explain tediously how she needs to leave for work).
M: Are you asking for money for gas?
Q: (Drags it out about how she won't be around later and wants a hug. It looks like JP is going to comply).
M: Hold on, are you letting her get off this easy?
JP: The last girl had this disability
M: How should she earn it? (The girl then comes up on stage and stands talking to them, dragging things out further. Finally they go for a group hug but Jared hugs Misha instead and she ends up hugging JP – or as much of him as she can get her arm around).
M: Buy some shoes though, if you're going to work you need shoes.
JP: She said my hair is better than Misha's, I don't know what she's talking about (as he tosses it and runs his fingers through it).
Q: (Next questioner begins her question)
M: It's not just serious but well worded! Intelligent, a beacon.
JP: I can't wait to hear Misha's answer.
M: What was the question again?
Q: SPN has a mythological arc that portrays religious figures negatively, does it interfere with your personal religious feelings?
M: Satanism?
JP: I didn't hear "Jared", nor about your hair, we don't know about that kind of stuff.
M: Is anyone else doing a panel later?
JP: How does it portray them negatively? Lucifer?
Q: All the good angels are the ones who left heaven.
M: I'm going to have to second my friend Padalecki –-
JP: We’re not friends.
M: Just because we're sitting next to each other, ok, my stage mate.
JP: We're not mates.
M: We are not mating.
JP: If you read the Bible sometime --
M: What are you doing tomorrow?
JP: You'll see they're not portraying them as very sweet people, they're warriors, not the Anne Geddes babies.
M: With that question you're essentially taking the King James Bible to task.
JP: We’re not satantists as you are. Yeah, angels are warriors for heaven. The show is showing that there are warriors on both sides of the battle.
M: Thanks for whoever was talking into that earpiece (pretends he and Jared were being fed cues from someone else). We did portray God as a neurotic, alcoholic, prostitute- using writer.
JP: Well we didn't.
Q: Although Misha is my master, this question is for Jared. (Jared pretends to be all pleased that he got another question).
M: She did imply that I was her master.
Q: You play Sam as this guy who is a rawr Gigntor – (Jared and Misha both burst out laughing and Jared laughs so hard he falls on the ground. As he's lying there laughing, Jensen comes in and replaces the girl at the mic, who has her hands over her mouth, probably in shock. The audience screams so much I nearly have to go for my earplugs).
JA: Hi (All stuttery and shy).
M: It's not your turn.
JP: (Who manages to get himself off the stage and back in his chair) It's ok, you're not being judged.
M: Do you want to take a minute?
JA: This question is for Misha.
M: It's ok sweetie, go ahead.
JA: I was wondering if you could give us your best Dean impression? (The audience screams. Jared start laughing, and Misha knows he's been had. Jensen throws up his arms and does victory jumping, then goes up and crouches on stage near Misha's chair. Misha turns around for a moment, preparing, then with a squint and pout as he turns back around "Um Sam," something about the Impala).
JA: I was getting bored back there, I hope you don't mind guys (sits in the chair brought up for him on stage). Were you doing sit ups when I walked in (to Jared)?
JP: Can you ask that question again?
Q: Jensen, you totally Kanye West'ed me, what the hell?
M: That's funny. (Jensen goes to give her a hug).
JA: I am so rude, my mother would be ashamed. So what was happening?
Q: You smell really good.
JA: (Very Deanlike) Yeah, that's right.
Q: (Repeats her question about Jared playing Sam as a gigantor. JP and Misha say she didn't ask it the same way, it was funnier last time).
JA: I've been asking that question for 5 years.
JP: I play Sam as big and dumb Gigantor?
M: It's so convincing though
Q: What it's like in real life? Do you kick down doors and break things? (All of them find this hilarious).
JA: His life is a bull in a china shop.
JP: It's fun. I love to break stuff.
M: I remember the first con I went to with you guys with Australia. Maybe that wasn't the first, but it's the first I remember. I was getting ready to go out and I go to Jared's hotel room, he answers and he's got a towel wrapped around him and he says "Hang on, I'm trying to put the doors back on the closet."
JP: That is actually true. (Says something I didn't quite catch about how they ended up that way).
Q: I'd like to get an answer from Misha on something. We're doing a documentary on fandom and the psychology of it. I want to ask why you want to seek it out instead of running away from it?
JA: Would you really go straight for Misha Collins?
JP: The really obvious question is "Have you had your eyes checked?"
Q: Well, I am legally blind in one eye.
(They can hardly hear the last part of her statement because everyone is laughing so hard. Misha walks off stage and Jared runs off stage to hug her. Jensen puts on sunglasses and folds his hands. Jared comes back on stage and Jensen begins miming Stevie Wonder as he sings "Ma Cheri Amour." Misha comes back on stage wiping his eyes.)
M: I'm ok.
JA: There is a question still hanging in the air.
JP: (Something about comparing Misha to Steve Buscemi who is the hottest guy in this woman's eyes. The questioner says that with glasses she has 20/20 vision and she's fine. Jared asks again about the question).
M: She's doing a study on crazy people and wanted to know why it is that I seem to embrace fandom? What gives you that impression?
Q: You seem to have a more genuine relationship with your fans than most actors, like with your Twitter.
JA: I'll answer this, it's because Misha doesn't work and he has to do something.
M: I just love that you said my Twitter is a genuine relationship.
JA: Isn't Twitter a kind of one-sided thing though?
M: Like all good relationships are!
JA: I'll set them up all day for you, buddy.
Q: What would be your heaven if it was like the one shown on SPN?
M: For me, it's being on stage with these guys.
JA: That's a bunch of bullshit.
JP: Does that mean my heaven has to coincide with someone else's? Because if I have to be with these two that makes it automatically not my heaven.
JA: Anywhere not on stage with these two.
JP: He's like 'why did I come up here'?
(Audience: We love you Jensen!)
JA: Oh shut up. Right now my heaven is home.
M: So it's an imaginary place you never see.
JA: Exactly.
Q: In the show the Impala has a crucial role. I named my car after Castiel, who's my favorite character.
JP: So you ride in Casitel.
M: Let's have less double entendre.
JA: Does Castiel leak?
JP: Is it hard to get going?
Q: Yes.
M: That'll be Jared.
JP: It must be an automatic because you couldn't find the stick shift. (Audience Ooooohs).
M: They didn't like that one.
Q: What was your first car and did you have a name for it?
JP: A 69 Camaro.
JA: (Mocking him) I had a 69 Camaro. I didn't need to name it, it called me. I had an 88 Pathfinder and I called her Patty.
M: I had a 1979 Toyota Corolla station wagon, blue with wood paneling. It had 300,000 miles on it. it was rusted out badly, so I was constantly bonding the body, and I spray painted it. It looked like I was a hippy, and I got pulled over by cops all the time. I literally got pulled over one time doing 56 in a 55 MPH zone, and the cops searched my car.
Q: (They couldn't make out the question)
JP: Ronald Reagan?
Q: How did Sam feel when Cas admitted he has a stronger relationship with Dean?
JP: Cas saved Dean and that was part of the myth, so they knew each other from the beginning, and then Sam was inhabited by Lucifer. I don't think Sam cared.
JA: I'll have to ask Dean, I don't know
M: What a brilliant way to deal with this. That could have saved a lot time!
Q: Now that I have my name, rude lady #4 with a large camera – (Refers to how earlier she had jumped in to reply to something in a back and forth from the stage) I don't have a question for Jensen.
JA: Make something up
Q: You're very attractive.
JP: Now you've pissed him off.
JA: There's a question, dumbass
JP: "Now I have a question for the idiot."
Q: Your hair is just so lush.
JP: Stop. You have one hour to stop that immediately. Can we have more along those lines, please?
Q: Can you put your serious face on?
JP: Sure, watch this (audience screams).
Q: In what episode are you most proud of your work and which if any would you go back to review?
JP: I Know What You Did Last Summer, and to review, what was S1 called? Yeah, S1. It was a learning experience. I worked really hard in Heart and Last Summer.
M: I would go back to redo them so I was in them.
JA: I'd have to say The End and that's the one I wouldn't go back to redo.
M: That whole episode Jensen was in, he was (mimicks brain frying). He was a machine, plowing through it. I remember you were like "This is not happening again, it can't." You were on the phone with LA about that.
(Jensen begins pacing the stage mimicks going crazy, muttering to himself).
Q: (Next lady praises Jared because she didn't get the chance to do so because his con talk was eliminated in 2009. Jensen starts putting on his sunglasses. She goes on and ON. Jared walks over to give her cash. Jensen gets on his cell phone and walks to the back of the stage. Misha also pulls out his cell phone and then takes a camera phone shot of Jensen, who does this hilarious big grin pose. I hope to god Misha puts that picture on Twitter. Jared comes back on stage to sit down and so does Jensen.)
M: (To his cell phone) I'm sorry I can't talk right now. (Lady goes ON! Misha starts coughing. Lady wants audience to give Jared a standing ovation. Misha and Jensen leave the stage.)
JP: I'm blushing so much, I'm sweating (To Jensen and Misha backstage) You get applause too, come back! (Audience shouts for Jensen and Misha. They burst back on stage and audience gives everyone a standing ovation. They all lap it up. Jared pretends to try and see over the top of Misha when he stands in front of him).
JP: That's the sweetest thing I ever heard.
JA: I missed it.
M: Is that another "Padalecki" shirt? Oh-oh.
Q: Nicolas Cage said when he did Leaving Las Vegas that he'd eat a lot of junk food to get that drunk feeling for the film –
M: He really doesn't know how to get drunk then, does he?
JP: Maybe a few more Cheetos?
JA: Did you do something similar? He was wasted, as drunken Cas.
M: That was a spur of the moment rewrite, it was written sober and then I showed up.
JP: You were great! Now can we do one with your eyes open.
M: Oh, totally method, yeah.
JA: Trying to do method TV work would be impossible, a movie is a 4 month shoot, and there is an end in sight. On TV, we’d be living as a different person for the last 6 years.
M: (Pretending to be embarrassed) Yeah, that would be ridiculous.
JP: Come back to us.
Q: How would Jared portray Castiel?
JA: This is easy, he does this all the time on set. (Jared gets up and turns around for a moment, then starts walking like a robot back to his chair.)
JP: I raised you from perdition (in mechanical voice. They're all laughing but the audience is screaming with it).
JA: But now Castiel has changed so he has a new one. (JP disappears behind stage)
JA: He's not there!
JP: (Returning) 4 words!
JA: He is not there.
Q: What about Castiel in The End?
JA: This one's good, I like this one too. (Jared does a less mechanical walk and slouches, then delivers the same line, only sounding like Spicola from Fast Times).
Q: Misha, how did you feel about eating so many hamburgers as Jimmy?
M: I don't know how to take it easy on camera very well. Jensen was helping me out. He knows well how to eat burgers on camera, to spit it out at the end. I would be going for a bite and he would slap the burger out of my hand.
JA: You really were mowing a lot of burgers. I was just "Oh buddy", after one take. So not good. Even when the camera was on my coverage he'd be eating! Stop dude, you're going to make me throw up.
(The Q&A is running out of time so the many people still waiting in line are told to go sit down. The guys are momentarily confused by why everyone seems to be going away).
M: What was worse was the raw meat I had to eat in MBV. It was disgusting, raw uncooked veggie sausage with tomato paste. It's gross when cooked and not cooked it's worse. Point is I was eating a lot when the camera wasn't on me.
JA: I decided not to tell him that time.
Q: (Introduces herself.)
JP: Hi, I'm Jared, this is Misha, and that's Jensen with an "n" on the end.
Q: Misha, how do you play a straight-faced character when Dean throws all this stuff at you?
M: I have ruined more takes than anyone else, when I start laughing. It's rare we get shots. I have to bite my cheeks.
JP: When you first came on –-
JA: You were bad.
JP: He's gotten better.
JA: Jared likes to screw with people on their coverage. I learned very early to ignore him.
M: He's a stone, it's amazing.
JA: You've come a long way now too. I see that the acting goes away. But he doesn't break (Jensen pretends to be straight faced without being able to laugh).
JP: You were a mess in the motel!
M: I don't remember that one.
JP: You remember the one, with the motel, and the thing! (They go on with the joke about how half the scenes take place that way).
M: I imagine that's it.
JA: No more questions, well alright. (They all get up, Misha namastes. Jensen immediately moves to the left side of the stage to start signing the banners there. Jensen slapped Misha's butt to get him to come and sign banners as well. Misha kept trying to joggle Jensen's arm. Misha can't reach the spot by his photo. Jared, who has gone backstage to get a pen, head butts him as he comes back on, almost knocking him over. Needless to say, Jared has no trouble signing the banners).
