1. So far, people who read this LJ think Kara Thrace is hotter than Sam Winchester. Or at least those who want to hear my thoughts on BSG: Razor, so I suppose it's not an entirely unbiased sample ( Read more... )

Thank you so much! I feel like this has bubbling inside for me awhile now. It all felt so "familiar" (obviously) while I was writing it.

1. I see no reason to choose between Kara and Sam - i'll take both please. And damn isn't the apocalypse looking sexy this year?
2. Love the essay. I think you capture something I (and I am sure others) would relate to - in that fandom is a site for looking at the world, looking at ourselves - and playing!
3. This article makes mention of the Firefly DVD/Serenity conenction.

1. Also the option I choose. I think Kara would drive Sam insane. The idea of her and Dean together though is a kind of hotness that almost escapes words though.

2. Thank you! I think you capture something I (and I am sure others) would relate to - in that fandom is a site for looking at the world, looking at ourselves - and playing! I'm so glad that came through. It makes me think of how I'm pretty sure that though I don't want to write ethnographic accounts of fandom (academically) it's more like I believe that being part of fandom has affected how I think about the world/texts as much as my academic training and there's no way I can (or want to) separate that sensibility out of my work. So I guess I veer more towards being a "fannish academic" than an "academic fan." To me, anyway.

3. Thank you for the link!!!! The part I left out of this essay was the fact that fandom helps me do my homework! :P
