Give me a fandom or a pairing and I will give you one or more unpopular opinions about them.

Dear Fandom,

Your dream casts all mostly pretty underwhelming and I hate your live action icons.

Love,
Red.

Um. Cara/Kahlan!
Thursday, August 19th, 2010 04:48 am (UTC)
Before the sexing with Cara could commence, I think Kahlan would really need to process that she's attracted to a woman (and I think she would be gay for Cara and not bisexual, because we've never seen her react to other ladies the way Cara does).

Stein/Marie or alternvatively Soul Eater in general

Spirit is a terrible father, full stop.

I like that Snape switched sides because of Lily, and I think his line where he smacks down one of his Slytherins when he calls someone mudblood (iirc) shows that he really did change his ways.

Parker/Sophie
Wednesday, August 18th, 2010 03:35 pm (UTC)
since I currently have about 40 tabs of Sophie/Parker smutfics open, I mean why not?
Friday, August 20th, 2010 07:19 am (UTC)
I don't know what popular or unpopular opinions about that pairing would be, sorry.
Wednesday, August 18th, 2010 04:24 pm (UTC)
Soul/Maka? I just got into Soul Eater, and am curious about this pairing - it seems to be the major pairing in the fandom.

Zutara
Sunday, August 22nd, 2010 01:24 pm (UTC)
An open-ended ending, with regards to ships>being canon.

That said, it's not like we got either.
Wednesday, August 18th, 2010 07:10 pm (UTC)
Azula/Aang- no, that's too horrible to fathom.

Lisbeth/Mikael from GWTDT. Though... I'm not sure there's been enough "fandom" around it, per se, for opinions to actually become unpopular, so I'll add...

Jessica/Hoyt.
Sunday, August 22nd, 2010 01:25 pm (UTC)
I talked about my unpopular GWTDT opinion at work... and I really don't know what popular or unpopular opinions are, with regards to Hoyt and Jessica.

Amy/Doctor
Friday, August 20th, 2010 06:52 am (UTC)
I think the Doctor is a.) giving Amy really mixed signals and b.) is doing that because he's romantically and sexually attracted to her and really doesn't know how to deal with it/hasn't admitted it.

I'm not sure how popular or not that opinion is.
Wednesday, August 18th, 2010 10:00 pm (UTC)
Darn. Someone already said Zutara. :/
I suppose I already know one or more unpopular opinions about them. :P




Friday, August 20th, 2010 06:53 am (UTC)
Yeah, I've talked pretty thoroughly about my opinions on everything Avatar related... several times.
Wednesday, August 18th, 2010 10:59 pm (UTC)
fandom: Leverage?
pairing: Parker/Hardison?
Friday, August 20th, 2010 06:53 am (UTC)
You know, I have no idea what a popular or unpopular opinion about Hardison and Parder would be. But I know I hate Eliot/Hardison/Parker, which is fandom's baby.
Thursday, August 19th, 2010 07:55 am (UTC)
Fandom in general?

If not, then Dresden Files.
Friday, August 20th, 2010 06:40 am (UTC)
I think people are in more control over their fannish experience than they realize or admit.

Found a quote from the musician about "Home" by Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros.

"That was it — the rest sorta flew into place — and HOME, home was the word that came, describing the feeling of us being together, runnin’ round and lovin’ each other and being the best of friends. It wasn't about relationship chatter or ...possessive lover mumbo jumbo, but friendship, pure and powered. All that other mess came and went later." - Alex Ebert on "Home"

Awww. The more I learn about this song, the more I adore it. I keep waiting to get sick of listening to it, but it hasn't happened yet.
Thursday, August 19th, 2010 07:42 pm (UTC)
darnit. everyone else took almost every fandom.

Okay. Percy/Annabeth

I agree with your letter to the Hunger Games fandom.
Thursday, August 19th, 2010 08:07 pm (UTC)
I don't know that fandom.

And yes. I mean, I think I just might have possibly found some live action icons that I like, but that's the exception that proves the rule, imho. And I just wish that they'd wait until we had casting news for making live action icons.
Thursday, August 19th, 2010 08:28 pm (UTC)
lol, my bad.

what about just to the general Avatar the last airbender fandom?

I totally agree. Plus, i don't see any reason getting attached to a specific actor when that person won't even be playing it in the actual movie.
Sunday, August 22nd, 2010 01:32 pm (UTC)
I have talked so much about Avatar and things I don't like about it.... would you mind picking another fandom?
Sunday, August 22nd, 2010 07:13 pm (UTC)
Katniss/Peeta?

Or just anything really....
*goes to see if i can find a list of your fandoms. DX *

Monday, August 23rd, 2010 07:52 am (UTC)
Just check out my tags and/or icons. Pretty much everything I know fandom-wise is in there.

Percy/Annabeth is Rick Riordan's series. The horrendous Lightning Thief movie is based on them, but both plot and characters have little connection. They're far from perfect, but the only "boy has destiny an adventures" series I haven't hated in years.

But then, he's snarky and appreciates getting rescued by girls.

I'm fond of him already. The Percy Jackson books are actually on my to-read list... just not high up. One of these days I'll get to them.

Who is that in your icon, btw?

It's Annabeth from the movie. The movie was actually pretty well cast, even if the characters were older than they were in the last book. I was actually looking forward to shipping without the "uhm...12!" aspect? But Percy lost all his snark and likability and was just annoying, and they took most of Annabeth's brain away and pretty much combined her with another female character who's her exact opposite.

Here's my post from after I read the books and watched the movie a couple montrhs ago: http://meganbmoore.livejournal.com/1192223.html

EPICALLY LAME!
