(Anonymous) 2014-11-08 02:46 am (UTC)(link)With Inception, I think there was a lot of inchoate enthusiasm about the film, and then a couple well-known fans did a couple popular fics that were Arthur/Eames, and BANG, the fandom crystallized. Had those fics been, say, Cobb/Eames, I think we'd have seen a million bloody coffeehouse AUs and everything else where Cobb and Eames slog their way through the same old tropes.

(Anonymous) 2014-11-08 03:36 am (UTC)(link)It's more likely that if either Arthur or Eames hadn't been white, the popularity of that pairing would have never taken off. Seriously, fangirls would just fawn over JGL and Tom Hardy in ways that only bland white actors could be fawned over.

(Anonymous) 2014-11-08 05:15 am (UTC)(link)Well, of course it's only because they're white, that's a given. I'm saying WHICH pretty-white-boy ship becomes the fandom juggernaut seems to follow a pattern similar to a supersaturated solution. Sorry I wasn't clear.
