Fandom stuff

Okay, so I'm a little caught up in writing fanfic right now, but I will get back to translating stuff eventually. And so, a poll:

Poll

I said I'd write up what I found funny/interesting from the commentaries, but altogether that's like four hours of material holy jeez so I'm going to translate the interviews before that to make it easier on myself ( Read more... )

You know, since I was up late last night watching the two movies in succession, I am so up for reading some TTGL fic right now.

Why is there so little fic of it, anyway?

I DON'T KNOW it supposedly has a HUGE fandom but from what little stuff actually gets posted you'd never know it. D: Though I do really appreciate what does get posted~~

Maybe it's a case of the fandom being, at least in it's most vocal parts, largely male, and most fanfic writers being female? IDK. It's a theory.

Here is hoping Parallel Works 2 is full of more AU madness!

Speaking of AUs, I'm against an actual sequel to TTGL... but I sure would love an AU spin-off that uses the same characters in a completely different setting. :V

If it'd be easier on you, I wouldn't mind a paraphrased version(s). A sort of Spark Notes-esque summary including interesting new comments or facts would probably be a lot less time-consuming than a word-for-word translation.

Oh, that's what I'm planning. A word-for-word translation would kill me. But even doing that, there's still a LOT because they're all talking constantly. x_x

DANG. Maybe an ultra-ultra-bare bones version, then? Take your time; that's a lot to handle!
