CHICON 2007 Breakfast with Jared Padalecki and Jensen Ackles - REVISED. This is a revised version of the video posted in December 2023. It has significantly better video quality. The source video is not my own; it was generously provided by AgtSpooky. The event took place on Sunday, November 11, 2007. I enhanced the original video as described below.

ENHANCEMENTS
1. I ran an upscale and stabilization program to improve video quality and reduce shakiness. It isn't perfect; the source material was recorded with 2007 technology. However, it now looks significantly better than any other video of this event published to date.
2. I added some small and (mostly) subtle content to help explain pop culture references that viewers might not be familiar with and to refresh people's memories on specific episode references being discussed.
3. I added GOOD, color-coded subtitles, unlike the auto-generated atrocities most of these older videos have that don't even make sense. If you turn on the CC button, these sometimes chaotic videos will make a LOT more sense! If I wasn't confident about what they said, even if I thought I could guess based on context, I marked it as [inaudible] in the subtitles.
Red = Jared
Blue = Jensen
Green = Audience
White = Staff

1. The original "Charlie the Unicorn" video. If you haven't seen this, the video at link #2 will seem utterly bizarre. If you have seen this, it will only seem a little bizarre. • Charlie the Unicorn
2. The referenced "Supernatural ~ Charlie the Unicorn" video. • Supernatural~ Charlie ...
3. "Pulling a Felicity" refers to an unpopular haircut on the show Felicity back in 1999 that badly hurt the show's ratings. It's explained in more detail, with pictures, at the following link:

VIDEO SOURCE REFERENCES
This video was generously provided to me directly from AgtSpooky who attended and recorded the event. This is why I released a revised version -- the original file upscaled so much better than the one I'd originally used from RU-vid that my original enhanced video seemed embarrassingly bad by comparison.
