Which of your fandoms has the worst fanfiction in your opinion?

[(Anonymous)]

Loosely inspired by today's Secret #7.

Harry Potter, it isn't even close. All those rotten self inserts, ugh.

Re: Which of your fandoms has the worst fanfiction in your opinion?

[(Anonymous)]

All anime.

Supernatural, but just because there’s a bunch of it. There’s a lot of good stuff, but also tons of bad ones.

A lot of the Kurama/Hiei fics in the Yu Yu Hakusho fandom are downright painful to read. Sucks that it's the juggernaut ship that makes up like 1/3 if not 1/2 of all YYH fics too.

Hetalia. Lately they've actually improved quite a bit but good LORD that fandoms wattpad days have not fallen from its vision.

Trying to fulfill my x-reader cringe urges is near impossible since almost all of the self-insert fics from that fandom are horrendous.

Sonic. Need I say more.

Harry Potter, back when I was in the fandom. It also had some of the best, though.

Now probably Star Wars.

Anime fandoms' fic tends to be pretty dire, in my experience. Probably because a lot of the writers are very young and inexperienced.

Starker

So much of it is just straight-to-the-porn, in a way that feels extremely obvious and forced and totally disregards characterization beyond “Tony Stark is Dominant Daddy; Peter is his sweet, slutty baby boy.” PWP can be great, but well-written PWP still finds a way to make the porn happen that feels smooth and relatively in character. Most Starker PWP does not do that.

Also, I’m pretty sure the majority of Starker shippers are/were mainly into it because they wanted to get railed by Tony Stark, and they saw Peter Parker as an easy character to project onto. And oh boy does it show. (Which is fine; it’s just not my thing in any way, shape, or form.)

Also, a solid majority of Starker fanfic is AUs where the characters don’t have super powers, and almost none of these AUs do the work to make the characters feel like themselves despite the changes. Like, I’m not a huge fan of no-powers AUs, but if someone really commits to making the characters feel like solid versions of themselves despite the different circumstances, then I think that’s pretty cool, and I can sometimes get into it. But if it’s just Tony the Mob Boss and Peter his pretty, slutty baby boy who likes to wriggle on Tony’s lap while he threatens people, I feel like I may as well be reading original porn.

(Also, I just dislike Dead Dove stuff, and Dark!Tony, and feminization, and age-play/littles, and watersports, and asshole Doms who blatantly objectify their subs, and I’m not too into Daddy Kink either--so that rules out a solid 75% of Starker fanfic right there. But that’s more of a “personal taste” issue than a “bad writing” issue.)

For me probably Starkid's fandom

What are some of your favorite LGBT+ movies?

[(Anonymous)]

Inspired by today's Secret #4.

Re: What are some of your favorite LGBT+ movies?

[(Anonymous)]

At the moment Eastern Promises and The Green Knight, both of which have arguable bi-rep.

Re: What are some of your favorite LGBT+ movies?

[(Anonymous)]

I thought Love, Simon was pretty cute.

Re: What are some of your favorite LGBT+ movies?

[(Anonymous)]

Blazing Saddles. Prove to me I'm wrong.

Re: What are some of your favorite LGBT+ movies?

[(Anonymous)]

I was pleasantly surprised by Fear Street, both in terms of the use of horror for the story AND the lesbian rep!

Re: What are some of your favorite LGBT+ movies?

[(Anonymous)]

Impossible to even try to rank favorites, but some that stuck with me long after: My Beautiful Laundrette, My Own Private Idaho, Desert Hearts, Hedwig and the Angry Inch, Velvet Goldmine, Priscilla Queen of the Desert, Moonlight, The Power of the Dog, Pride, Maurice, Carol, But I'm a Cheerleader, Portrait of a Lady on Fire, The Favourite, The Hunger, Torch Song Trilogy, The Birdcage, Angels in America.

The Handmaiden. It's pretty fucked up but it's great.

Love Simon was pretty adorable.

D.E.B.S is so trashy and so much fun.

Wish You, this one's a bit odd as it was a show in Korea I think but it's a movie on Netflix, but either way I thought it was really sweet and a lovely watch.

But I'm A Cheerleader is SUCH a classic

Re: What are some of your favorite LGBT+ movies?

It’s been a while, but I remember really appreciating Shortbus for how unapologetic it was. (And not particularly romantic, which is a personal preference.)

Re: What are some of your favorite LGBT+ movies?

[(Anonymous)]

I don't have any because I don't remember watching that many to begin with, and those I did were BL manga adaptations. Could use some recs.

Ages ago I remember watching a short one that got kind of popular on Tumblr about a blind boy and his teen crush. It was very sweet and BL-esque, and sex wasn't even mentioned; being asexual I loved that. I would like some recs in that vein.
