Secrets you don't want to make...

[(Anonymous)]

... but you wouldn't mind if someone else made them for you! As always, including the fandom and full character names is a big help, and I'll try my best to use an appropriate image choice. Just to clarify - it's my intention to make all the secrets left in this thread, so even if they're not marked claimed, they will be made.

I'll monitor this thread until tomorrow's secret post goes up, so feel free to leave your comments until then!

Yours truly,

a secret maker

I feel spoiled having grown up in a time where we had shelves of fantasy novels to buy, TSR was pumping out Forgotten Realms books regularly, there were Ravenloft books even, plus an array of Star Trek Pocket Books, two and sometimes even three new Terry Pratchett novels a year, and even two Doctor Who novels a month (past doctor and New Adventures), as well as innumerable SFF tv shows too. It was a golden age of high fantasy and SF-fantasy. I kinda miss it, and I feel sorry for the kids growing up in our relatively deprived age right now with only grimdark and sparkly vampires for inspiration.

The trailer for Transformers: Rise of the Beasts features Arcee, in her classic design, strongly. I oughta be there for it just on that alone, but I hated Beast Wars as a cartoon so I'll be waiting for the spoiler reviews and plot synopsis to drop on wikipedia before I go see it. Please gimme those spoilers, I've been burned by this franchise too often to take anything on trust anymore.

I love that anime movies are getting more and more popular, increasingly getting mainstream western releases as a matter of course, but at the same time I kinda-sorta hate that it isn't the kind of anime that I used to love as a kid which is getting those releases. I get it, I'm old and social tastes change, but still... Can't we have one of those trashy, comedic, 80s rock soundtracked, action/sci-fi, shonen animes too? Just one? Please?

I remember being super excited for Alien Vs Predator when the movie came out, I was stoked, and then this movie was just a sugar rush committed to film, super tropey, super campy, just full of nonsensical action. I loved it and still do. It gave no shits about trying to be grim, gritty, or real. Bring me all the movies like that.

Current book cover art tells me nothing about the story inside the book. Confusing, or just plain dull and generic, covers are a good fifty percent of why the number of books I read this last year has dropped like a stone.

I love the Addams Family. But I'm not watching Wednesday. I'm just mostly interested in Gomez and Morticia. The kids are the least interesting characters to me, so I'm not interested in a show centered around either of them. But I feel guilty because I think this might make me a bad fan.

I found a Harry Potter-Game of Thrones crossover fic with a really great set up, decent-ish character voice, and the author had clearly wanted to write longfic. And it sucked. The author's grasp of basic grammar and spelling was woefully, and had clearly not even self-proofread it. Please, people, I know everyone can't always get a beta reader, but at least self-proofread your own stuff. It doesn't matter how great your grasp of canon or how good your premise is, if nobody can read it without wincing.

I wish more songs had the vibe of Blackmore's Night's song Four Winds. Very few do, maybe the original version of J-Lo's Ain't It Funny, but that sort of vibe I just love.

Even after all these years, I am still kinda disappointed there is no real-world version of Castle Grayskull to go visit as a tourist. I guess no real castle could ever manage to be just as darn spooky looking as Grayskull from the OG He-Man show.

I do so hate that our current group of politicians have watched Yes Minister and somehow decided that Humphrey and Hacker were figures to be emulated, instead of being parodies to be avoided. It must take so much effort to miss the point so badly.

I enjoyed Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness more than Everything Everywhere All At Once. If I admit to this in fandom spaces, I get dogpiled because apparently this is not allowed. I hate this timeline.

Nothing brings home to me the inexorable onward march of time like seeing the local bookstore's Terry Pratchett cabinet become the Terry Pratchett shelves, then shelf, then just shelf segment, and now just the classic Pratchett's mixed in with every other book. Damn, Sir Pterry, I miss you. #GNUTerryPratchett.

While Black Panther 2 was very much the best, I've honestly enjoyed all the recent MCU movies. And honestly I feel like a lot of the heavy critique is less about the individual movies and more just simple MCU fatigue. Because I don't think there has been a drop in quality at all.

I ought to feel excited by the return of RTD and Tennant to Doctor Who, but, to be honest, Moffat and Chibnall have done such an effective job in destroying any interest I had in the show that I struggle to feel anything at all. I'm definitely not excited or stoked, I know that.

The worst thing Star Trek: Deep Space Nine did to the Trek franchise was introducing Section Thirty-One. It has been a blight on the franchise ever since, especially with a certain section of fans who miss the point that it is a bad thing for any state to have.

My only ambition in life is to outlive Rian Johnson, just to have the satisfaction of saying good riddance when he goes.

I don't know why people say that Gene Roddenberry's vision for Star Trek was a-religious. Check it out, The Original Series was all about how great The Kirk is.

All my friends love Terry Pratchett books, but I hate them. I think they have real problems with fatphobia, especially the opera one.

I saw Grease on tv last week, and I gotta say that I prefer Kenickie and Riz's story to Danny and Sandy's one. I wish the focus has been on them instead. It is way more interesting and emotional.

My dream Disney project is that they spend the money cutting out Ricky Gervais from Muppets Most Wanted and replace him with Matt Berry, so I can finally watch the movie. I despise Ricky Gervais.

Everything is better if you include Matt Berry.

Hogmanay television never recovered from the death of Rikki Fulton. Ringing in the New Year just isn't the same without Rev Jolly's "Last Call".

I loved The Goldfinch but I couldn't get past the first few chapters of The Secret History. I was rooting for everyone in it to be hit by a bus.

Fandoms: Loveless and Card Captor Sakura


I stopped reading Loveless fairly early on because, while it was beautiful and intriguing and had a lot of sympathetic characters, the shotacon vibes were messing with my head.

But what really messed me up? Was realising how much Soubi was like Keroberous - a wonderful monster who drags a kid into dangerous waters for his own purposes -his own need to be loved - however dangerous that might be for the child.
