The end of year fandom meme!
Dec. 22nd, 2012 12:35 pmYour main fandom of the year?
AVATAR/LEGEND OF KORRA. With Doctor Who a close second.
Your favorite film you watched this year?
A very close tie between The Hunger Games, Avengers and Brave.
Your favorite book read this year?
It's so cute how you think I can choose!
Your favorite album or song to listen to this year?
I rediscovered a lot of old favourites when I found a file of mp3s I had misplaced. Love Outside Andromeda's self-titled debut is still amazing, and it worries me deeply how you could make a Community vid to pretty much every single song Regurgitator have ever released.
Your favorite tv show of the year?
Legend of Korra, Doctor Who, Dance Academy, Elementary.
Your best new fandom discovery of the year?
Dance Academy! Which takes a whole lot of YA and teen TV cliches and executes them with heart, and I'm absolutely devastated that season 3 will be the last, even though it's a natural place for the story to end.
Your biggest fandom disappointment of the year?
Fandom itself, really. The fake geek girl stuff has been horrible, and a lot of fannish discourse, though it has roots in social justice, has been giving me flashbacks to my ultra-conservative Catholic childhood. And when I say "flashbacks" I mean "actually triggery", so I've had to disengage from a lot.
Your fandom boyfriend of the year?
♥ TENZIN ♥
Your fandom girlfriend of the year?
♥♥ LIN BEIFONG ♥♥ -- with Amy Pond, River Song, Joan Watson, Abigail Armstrong, Natasha Romanoff and Toma Saya as very close runners up.
Your biggest squee moment of the year?
ChicagoTARDIS -- I met people I've known for years online! I was in a book! IT WAS AMAZING!
The most missed of your old fandoms?
Mary Russell. The new book sparked some life back into my love, but Holmes fandom in general seems even less welcoming of female-dominated reinterpretations than it was a few years back.
The fandom you haven't tried yet, but want to?
I really need to watch Breaking Bad and Warehouse 13. I am aware that these are slightly different. And I plan to read Saga and Captain Marvel over the Christmas break.
Your biggest fan anticipations for the coming year?
MOAR KORRA. Season 7.2 of Doctor Who. And I live my life in an eternal, probably futile wait for Marvel to do a Black Widow film.
