because I am obsessed, a few more observations on [livejournal.com profile] yuletide...

- I don't understand the impulse to want fanfic for novels that people read in high school. Me? I didn't HATE Hemingway or Conrad, but after we were done with the books, I never ever wanted to look at them again. It took being stranded in a foreign country with only Northanger Abbey in English to get me to pick up Austen again, and I still haven't touched anything else I did in American Lit, because I was that sick of it (mind you, high school lit classes were YEARS ago). And people want to write FANFIC????

- RPF is taking over the world.

- I wonder whether there will be more or fewer fics for L'Engle-verse and Wheel of Time this year, because the authors passed away?

- Solely because I rewatched it yesterday, I nominated Marnie, the Hitchcock film. I may change my mind, but damn, the AFTER story is just begging to be told of that.

- Some people have strange ideas of what constitutes a rare, obscure fandom. Like, for instance, High School Musical...

Some of the noms are... WTF? I hadn't seen Chuck E Cheese though, that is so far the winner in FUCKING WEIRD.

Although a lot of the kids' series tend to become fics about those kids when they grow up, so they're (probably) not as squicky as you're imagining.

Captain Power? At least I know about it, but I don't think I ever saw it. Some of those nominated things I've never heard of.
