Jensen in a movie! :)

Jensen Ackles set for 'Bloody Valentine'": In helmer Patrick Lussier's remake of the 1981 slasher film, Ackles will play Tom, a handsome, principled man who returns to his home in Harmony, Mo., 10 years after 22 people were murdered on Valentine's night. Back in Montana, Tom finds he still is smitten with his first love, Sarah (Jaime King), and is now a murder suspect.

Great! That sounds really good and I'm crossing my fingers here that he gets this role *crosses fingers*

But the fans are starting to piss me off like you wouldn't believe it. First they totally dissed and bashed Jared's new movie without frickin' seeing it, now they are saying even worse things about Jensen's new role. Yes, it's much better for him to star in independent movies like TIH that won't even get to cinemas and the execs have troubles finding anyone seriously interested in bringing it out at least on DVD (I have nothing against TIH, from what I heard it's a cool movie and I would adore to see it, but it didn't do Jensen's career much good so far since it's still a con/festival thing only).

Be happy for Jensen! This will put him in spotlight. And stop complaining until you actually saw the frickin' movie!

You know what? All I say is at least he's working, and if Tom Hanks can win an Oscar after starting out in Bosom Buddies, I'm sure Jensen can go just as far on the back of this and other less than 'perfect' roles. After all, George Clooney didn't really make it big until he was at least 35!

Exactly. I mean, two years ago, it was an independent romantic movie, last year it was theater, this year it's a horror/suspense movie. It only seems like he's doing horrors only because he also stars in Supernatural at the same time. And the same goes for Jared. I think that people need to stand back and look at the bigger picture.

They're both doing what they need to do to keep going in the business. Sure it may not necessarily take them very far, but they're also canny enough to know that if they do these low-rent parts now, in ten years time they may still be household names or better. They're both young and really, they're still just starting out despite early success. People should just give them a break and get over themselves.
