Re: What killed crossover fandoms (ie. Superwholock)?

I doubt dashcon killed megafandoms. My theory is that abrasive, moralistic nature and the "stay in your lane" mindset of fandom right now is not conductive to fanworks so there's less silly fun stuff being made.

Have we really reached the point where we're willing to defend Superwholock if it gives us an excuse to shit on Tumblr?

I mean, seriously. Superwholock.

Superwholock was a product of tumblr, so I'm getting conflicting messages here.

Additionally any megafandom will have its crazies. Acting like superwholock is some unspeakable evil instead of a crossover that was sort of obnoxious is dishonest.

Perhaps The Same Could Be Said Of The Criticisms Being Made Of The So-Called Morality Police

Nah, I've seen enough suicide encouragement over fictional characters from those types to know the two aren't comparable.

They didn’t even say anything about Tumblr, wtf. Little bit defensive, are we?

Fair enough if that's going too far with the metonymy, but I hope you understand what I mean

I miss fandoms producing a lot of crack works. Like, stuff like Superwholock or Tuna!Lock was weird but it was FUN! I miss that. :(

Seconding this so damn hard. I was never into Superwholock personally, but I saw plenty of it around and I always kind of liked it. And I loved Tuna!lock for being utterly cracktastic and stupid and not giving a fuck.

Sherlock in particular seemed to have a ton of crack works. There was that one fic where John and Sherlock were turned into dessert sprinkles. And that other one where the whole cast was small sea creatures. Or that awesome series that wasn't even crack where they were Were!Velociraptors. Good times.

People talk so much shit about the big fandoms, but for the most part I love them.
