Re: 3.11

Just noticed this:



The street they're walking down in "Mystery Spot", the one with the dog? Is the exact same location as the corner Sam saw Jess on at the end of Bloody Mary. See the blue "Taverna" sign? Corner of Moncton and first in Steveston, BC, which is a suburb or something of Richmond.

It was just something I noticed, and thought it was cool. Yay, Steveston! The go-to location for frigging with Sam's mind! :-)



In other news, I've been lumbered with 300 double-sided pages of boring work-related crap to study at home before work Monday, and am going to have to stop avoiding it soon, because while I've cleaned the house, washed the cat and made enough chili to last for weeks, the guilt about avoiding the work crap is killing my brain for writing or thinking thinky thoughts about anything interesting. So I may as well get the OMG-shoot-me-now boring crap out of the way. Blech. :-P

hahaha yeah I noticed that the first time through! and the section JUST after Dean dies for the "final" time in the episode and Sam's driivng the car? that huge tree is the one that they came aroudn when they first spotted the bridge, and where we meet the dead guy in the Pilot episode (when Jericho California is up on the screen) lol

oh the random things we notice eh?

Good eye :-) It might be a reused shot from the Pilot. There were a lot of re-used 'Impala going somewhere' shots this season.

[phoenix-rose-up.livejournal.com]

haha i thought of that too, but the car was going the opposite direction and the only time the Impala passed the tree was during the day!

and yes, tons of reused car-going-somewhere shots.. probably keeps the budget down quite a bit

[caffienekitty]

Was it the one where the Impala is mostly behind trees, and you can't see what side of the road it's driving on? If so they may have deliberately flopped the shot; mirror-imaged it. Or it could be a shot of the Impala driving they took at the same time, but didn't use in the Pilot. There have to be loads of those, because seriously, they don't go drive the Impala around, set up camera gear and only take one shot from one angle. I think it's an awesome way to keep the budget down.

Hm. There's a project for the hiatus for someone. cataloging the re-used shots in Season 3. :-)

uhhhh its when Sammy's driving the car (they pan in to show us Sam driving) but the external shot looks like its only one person in the car... I'll have to go rewatch MS now lol

and those are all good points.. I'll have to go look now as Im watching the tail end of season 1 and attempting to write an essay.. the essay isnt happening so much... hope the boring work stuff is going better *L*
