I disagree about the last one. Well, to some extent. To me, as a rule, "canon" is only what exists in the narrative itself. It's not that author intent should be discounted or anything, it's just it's not canon to me in the same way. After all, what happens when an author, ten, twenty, thirty years down the line suddenly changes something about the work? Reminds me of when Anne Rice rewrote Lestat as a repentant Christian. I don't buy that characterization and I don't consider it canon, and I don't feel bad about that.

But at the same time, no fan interpretation is more canon, obviously. Absolutely the author has every right to create new works in the same world, to say whatever they want to say about it, and entitled fans are obnoxious.

So, no Frank Miller Batman or Berman/Piller Trek?

I'm not bugged by people who disagree, I'm just bugged by people who are massive assholes about it. But I would still personally say that, going with the Anne Rice example, her interpretation of her own text is more valid of my own. It's just that I hate her interpretation so I would acknowledge it and then thoroughly ignore it.
