This happens for me, too, when I become really fannish about something. But I've accepted that it has a lot more to do with me than it has to do with the media in question. I mean, yes, things often suffer a definite drop-off in quality that is disappointing. But I'd say the biggest factor is just that I think way too much about the story and become way too invested in my own (and fandom's) ideas about the story. And when canon inevitably does its own thing, that's usually disappointing, because canon is such a different thing than fanon, and once I've got fanon and headcanons and meta and a thousand different fic scenarios in my head, canon usually ends up feeling very blunt and oblivious by comparison.

^This. Fandom seems a lot more respectful of characters and their motivations.

Fandom seems a lot more respectful of characters and their motivations.

AYRT - I agree with this very strongly. Though I also find it interesting that texts which are extremely nuanced and respectful of the characters and their motivations are, counterintuitively, much less likely to draw a huge fandom. Maybe in part because those texts are already giving people that deliciously complex, emotional, psychological thing they're looking for, so there's no, like, tease for the part of our brains/ids/hearts that wants that? IDK.
