Pairings I Don't Get
Okay, here’s the thing. I’ve been doing a lot of fanfic reading lately. And one thing I learned back in a film class in college (not a class for making film, but a class on films) was that every Hollywood picture comes down, at some level, to one guy and one girl. Now, this is of course not universally true (what is, really?) but it is a good, ( Read more... )
Yeah, it's the OOC-ness of some pairings that bothers me most, and that inspired my little rant. I was going to include a Heroes example that I "don't get", such as Claire/Sylar or something, but then I got distracted by something shiny and forgot. :-)
You are right: despite how much distaste I have for Sarah/Cameron, "Camerah" is a terrific ship name. I'm quite jealous, I think, although I did have a big hand in the name "JCam". But there is nothing easy in matching John and Cameron into something cool-sounding.
So do they not show The Sarah Connor Chronicles in your part of the Great White North? I don't know what the international distribution is, other than I've heard it's showing in Australia now and the UK a month ago or so. I don't know if you are a fan of the movies or not, but the show is quite good, especially the latter half of the season. Plus if you watch it you can read my tasty fanfic on it :-)
Anyway, thanks for responding! I never know if someone is listening when I post these. Good to hear from you!

Ugh. Sylar/Claire *shudder* But, yes, you should definitely stop by FF, if only to say hi :)
