- OUAT is officially the worst fandom I've ever been part of. I knew this fandom was toxic, but I thought it couldn't get any worse. This week fandom proved me wrong ( Read more... )

re: Gotham. It was rather sad that Nora practically committed suicide by having Victor douse her with the wrong formula. Does that mean she no longer exists in Gotham-verse? Also, what was up with the pronunciation of their last name? xD

I'm guessing she's officially dead. Since all his previous experiments failed. :(

*LOL* I ACTUALLY LOVED THAT. it was a little bit weird, but I liked that Gordon's partner was "Oh no, it's pronounced like THIS!" and everyone's like "lol, of course..." but then he was right!!! XD

It's just weird, because in most other versions I know he's always lugging her frozen body around with him, trying to find a cure for her illness xD

LOL yes, that part I loved as well, becasue it was totally unexpected, but it just sounds so wrong to me xD

Have you read American Gods then? Is it any good and should I read it before the show?

It's been a while, but yes, I've read it. It's one of those books that I've re-read, and that stayed with me. It's pretty good imho.

Maybe read the book synopsis, and then decide if you want to read it ... or just watch the show ;D

I'm definitely interested in the storylines (and had planned to watch the show even before Ricky was cast) but you know how difficult this books vs show thing always is,I have been ~burned too many times when there have been too many strange changes (True Blood,Game of Thrones). I still want to read the book tho,hence my dilemma lol

I definitely get that.

But I think they're trying to say that the show will be different anyway.
When it was supposed to be on HBO, Gaiman said the first two seasons would be the book.

and I found this on wiki:
Speaking of the series, Fuller stated that it would "[follow] the events of the books but expanding those events, and expanding the point of view to go above and beyond Shadow and Wednesday."[10] Permission has been given for the series to incorporate elements from the book's companion, Anansi Boys. Fuller also confirmed that Gaiman is "very involved" with the production and expressed his hope that Gaiman would write an episode himself.

So, yeah, it'll be the book + more, I guess. IDK.
You could also wait until the show is here, and then read the book afterwards. ;D

Oh no, what happened in the OUaT fandom now?? I've been so out of the loop lately.

Do you really want to know?
It's pretty terrible tbh. A new low for this fandom for certain.
And of course it's Sean related, because this fandom has a hateboner for Sean.

I do, you've totally piqued my morbid curiosity now and it's always good to have extra reassurance that I made the right choice in more or less ditching this fandom. XD
Ugh, I will never understand the hateboner this fandom has about Sean. It's so ridiculous. I know most of them are SQ shippers, but seriously...fuck off. It's not HIS fault your ship is never going to happen.

Fine, then sit down and get ready for the worst thing this fandom has ever done to any of their actors (to date. I don't doubt they'll be able to top this one day. )

Someone on twitter accused Sean of sexually harrassing his make up artist!

After a day Adam was like "hey, what, no? Stop it! Never happened, no one complained. There's nothing to these rumours!!!"
tweet

He even told people that the person spreading this made it all up (or is deeply misinformed).
Apparently this person is known for stalking Lana and Jen and for being banned from Cons (and from set). but you can bet your ass that the haters still believe this rumour.
Because why should anyone trust Adam, and actually believe him that there's no victim, and that no one complained about Sean.

Some even said they'd rather believe the victim, instead of Adam. Which would be totally fine, IF THERE WOULD BE A VICTIM!!!
Even after the "victim" spoke up, and told everyone that it's not true, people wanted to believe it ( ... )

Oh no! What happen in OUaT fandom? I'm assuming it happened on twitter.

icequeen3101 March 17 2016, 22:33:30 UTC
It did. I think some of it is wide spread on tumblr, too. But I'm following that less.
Either way, if you want to know what happened, check out this comment to crucified:

fair warning, there's a possible spoiler for the end of the OUAT season somewhere in there.
Nothing definite, but there's currently lots of speculation about it, and it might happen.

That's so sad. People can be so cruel sometimes. I don't hang out on twitter or tumblr. I'm kind of glad that way I stay away from the no sense and still enjoy a I really like.

It really is. I honestly don't get the hate Sean is getting from this fandom. :/

But yeah, sometimes it's good not to see all the bad.
Definitely helps.

Oh gotta love that fandom. I'm glad I gave up on the show after Quiet Minds and mostly stay in my little SF/Neal corner of the fandom. They were nasty as hell to MRJ too. There were rumors, though nothing like this stuff with Sean. They was bs flying around in 3b that MRJ trashed his trailer and that's why he was written off. After Quiet Minds aired MRJ addressed it as the bullshit that it was. There's been other stuff too but this one is what sticks out in my mind. I've always liked Sean and his no bs attitude that he's had since (his) Day 1. He's always seemed like a great guy.

Haven't started this season of Bates yet. I need to though.

Quiet Minds was actually one of my fave eps, because it started OQ, more or less, but the Neal part definitely sucked :|
I was less in the Swanfire part of the fandom, but I do remember the trailer trashing rumour. At least that was still harmless compared to what they're doing now :(
but they certainly know how to bully people out of this fandom. (and then they claim they can't be bullied, because they're privileged white males. THAT'S NOT HOW THIS WORK, YOU IDIOTS.)
I obviously don't know Sean personally, but from his interactions with fans, cast, twitter, interviews... everything that I've seen, he seems like a giant, loveable dork. So IDK why fandom has this huge hateboner for him :(

OMG, PLEASE DO. AND THEN TALK TO ME ABOUT IT!
This season is insanely great! ;D

But I never heard about MRJ rumors! o_______________O I'm so glad, that I'm not into that fandom-shit *sigh*.
