Oz ,'Chosen'
Discussion of the Mutant Enemy series, Firefly, the ensuing movie Serenity, and other projects in that universe. Like the other show threads, anything broadcast in the US is fine; spoilers are verboten and will be deleted if found.
Loyality in fandom does urk me a bit, but the fact people are pulling apart the alledged strangeness/wankyness/etc of an overly long sentence is no less strange/wanky/etc.
Allyson, it was somebody here who suggested it should be put in front of JW's nose. If somebody doesn't want something putting on the internet, they probably shouldn't put it on the internet.
I'd be interested to know if Nilly is remotely bothered by any of this.
does HP fandom maintain that they are the best novels ever written with a straight face?
Some of them, yes. But they're not a shining example of sanity.
ita is not a boy
This is true. There were pictures once. I saw them.
So I should stop calling shrift "shrift"?
Dude, Shrift IS Shrift. And meara is meara.
Oddly, though, I am Teppy.
PMM, you made me do my periodic review of fandom_wank, dammit. And because of how I'd been posting in leadensky's journal (just replying to comment notices in my inbox) I hadn't noticed it had gotten wanky, nor been posted up there. Icky. I gotta remember not to go back to the discussion.

I like to think of Buffistas as fandom fans. We're sometimes (or always?) part of it, we're often scared by it, occasionally we swear it off completely, but we can't stop staring at the train wreck that fandom can be whenever it rears its ugly head.
Then again, maybe I just need to get more sleep.

If trains wouldn't rear their heads then they wouldn't get wrecked so much.

Um... me too.
Well, I view every single person here (including myself) as part of that fandom. Of course, people here can generally spell, however.
two, assuming that noting relevant details to properly evaluate the movie can *only* be done by "loyal browncoats"
To be fair, I think it's saying that this *will* only be done by them, not that it *can* only. But I'm pretty much with you on the rest of it. It doesn't really annoy so much as make me cringe a little, though.
