OK. Yeah. I'm annoyed.

Thinking about Sean's panel at ECCC and truth to tell I found some of what he said to be rather annoying. He seems to deliberately denigrate his friendship with... not just Elijah... but any of the his LOTR cast members.

And on a personal note, if he didn't want 'erotic fan fiction' written about either the characters OR he and Elijah... he might have been wise not to provide such rich fodder for those of us who write it. Any ONE of the seven million adoring looks Sam gave to Frodo in those movies - see my icon - (or that Sean gave to Elijah while they were promoting those movies for that matter) was enough to hand plot-bunnies to every LOTR writer who ever lived.

Could be he IS riding that wave... but if that's so then why bring it up at all? The folks at that con were very respectful and never once mentioned fan fic. If he hates it, it seems a bit counter productive for HIM to bring it up not once but twice.

Hell, LOTR fan fic has mostly gone the way of the dinosaur anyway. No one's pairing Sean up with anybody anymore... not even me! LOL!

In that context, it's especially odd. However, if this just happened at a very recent event, it could be grief.

That caused him to bring up erotic fan fiction? Well... I guess anything's possible. Everyone grieves in different ways.

And Sean can be different. LOL!

Maybe something reminded him of it. (Was this after the most recent Hobbitcon? I can't remember when that was).
