 Posted: Sun Apr 08, 2007 10:59 am Post subject: Why do we appreciate Jensen Ackles... |
 |
|
This is a thread inspired by my CW thread Why do we appreciate Jensen Ackles...
I made that thread to give Jensen the credit he deserves, to admire his acting and his personality in the first place, not only his looks. And also to make a list of movies/roles we would love to see Jensen in.
Welcome to "Why do we appreciate Jensen Ackles..." thread!
I have decided to make this thread because I think Jensen Ackles deserves some serious threads as well. Having watched Jimmy Kimmel's interview with Jensen, which was in my opinion quite "unlucky" (*), I have finally decided to take courage and try to make a serious thread about Jensen Ackles.
I am not saying I have never written anything about Jensen being hot, sexy, great-looking and so on. I am an ordinary woman and I sometimes love and need to talk about good-looking men. I can become pretty "guttery" from time to time too but none of this means I do not appreciate Jensen Ackles as an amazing actor and a very nice person he seems to be in the first place.
What can we talk about in this thread?
1) Jensen Ackles' talent
2) Jensen Ackles' work (TV shows, movies)
3) Jensen Ackles' roles
4) Which of his TV shows/movies is your favourite and why?
5) Which of his roles is your favourite one and why?
6) Are there any TV shows/movies/roles you would like Jensen Ackles to see in and why?
I may add other suggestions later.
Please, try to avoid these topics in this thread:
1) Appreciating any of Jensen Ackles' body parts --> There could be other threads made here for this. And remember, reducing a very talented actor to his body parts is not polite. I know most of us do it just for fun but yet, it is quite rude, and the more considering how shy Jensen Ackles seems to be. Try not to make him feel uncomfortable!
2) Using words like hot/smoking/sexy/yummy and alike --> Jensen Ackles is a very good-looking man but is it really the thing we admire most about him? Try to imagine any of his roles with his good looks but WITHOUT his talent. Would they be so amazing then?
3) Using "guttery" language --> If you feel like making a "guttery" comment, feel free to visit CW's Gutter Gardens, Gutter Girls, Pink Tutus or other "guttery-friendly" threads or even guttery threads on this forum, if there are any in the future.
I may add other suggestions later.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(*) --> Was it really necessary for Mr Kimmel to keep talking about Jensen's appearance and rabid fans although it was quite obvious that Jensen felt really uncomfortable about it and wanted to talk more about his work than about his girlfriend? Why did we not see any Supernatural clips? No Ten Inch Hero clips, news or questions? Though I was really pleased to see Jensen in a talk show and realize again how intelligent, kind, funny, nice and laid-back he seems to be.

I think the reason we had no thread for how much we love Jensen was that we'd been gushing about him, his talent, etc all over the other threads in every other section.
But I might as well reiterate my love here, for there can't be enough Jensen!love going around. 
Jensen is one of those actors that can actually ACT. He completely lives his character, and I think we've all seen that perfectly with Dean. From his interviews and appearances, we've seen how much of an adorably shy DORK the man is, which is totally different from Dean who is a cocky, confident man who's not afraid to run in with both guns blazing. Yet Jensen is what brings life to Dean. His expressions are especially drool-worthy from an acting standpoint. I don't think I've seen another actor with such a wide range of CONTROLLED facial expressions. <3
I haven't watched a lot of his stuff, but I don't think that matters so much. The difference between Jason on Smallville and Dean on Supernatural is so very obvious -- Jensen definitely belongs in a lead role. Being a recurring secondary character doesn't allow an actor to develop their character like Jensen has with Dean. |

Yes, love for Jensen all around. Hope he isn't sick of all this love.
And here they are again! Famous Jensen's facial expressions! Yes. I'm saying it all the time. He should have a copyright on them! It's such a blessing for an actor to be able to convey so much with mimics and gestures.
But here, I must disagree. Great actors can bring to life even very secondary characters. Sometimes, their characters (appearing only in some scenes, or being "only" in supportive roles) outshine the actor in the leading role.
I think I get what you wanted to say. That you have to live with a character for a long time and appear in every scene to lead the character as far as Jensen did with Dean. But yet:
There aren't small roles, only small actors. (I don't know what's the exact English translation for this sentence.)
And yes, Jensen is such a shy, adorable sweetie.

Hey Husitka, i didnt know you were here too...coool i just found this place when somebody posted a link in my old folks home thread....i was getting a bit tired of feeling out of place there...hehehehe
but yes i am still an avid fan of Jensen's, I love how he puts his all into every performance...he captivates you with his performance,and never fails to surprise you with even more intensity. He's one of the few actors who can really pull that off. |

Hi, new here!
I wanted to chime in and say add me to the list. Jensen is an amazing actor. He pulls off a dark and twisty, complex character w/out a hitch. His shy, humble personality is icing on the cake. I just love him!
