sqbr: Are you coming to bed? I can't, this is important. Why? Someone is wrong on the internet. (duty calls)

I think in future I will follow my instincts and ignore any further posts about the movie (I read it this morning at 4am and decided to leave any comment until I was more awake, and now it's all frozen)

I was thinking about it last night and Avatar:The Last Airbender and Pride and Prejudice are probably the two canons for which I am closest to the general fanfic fandom concept of "being in the fandom" eg on canon specific communities, making multiple fanworks out of love not fixits(*). And alas, both fandoms have a hefty dose of fail (though I guess pretty much all fandoms do) I guess I should be glad that at least the canon is pretty good and I didn't fall in love with Supernatural or whatever.

(*)Leading to my constant irritation with the assumption that everyone's fannishness is primarily expressed by being "in" one or more specific fandoms, and that any multifannishness comes as you learn to look beyond your One Fandom. My attention span is way too short to stick to one thing that much!
