I hate them too. They seems like a blind grasp at popularity for being the first person to come with a 'headcanon' that completely disregards the characters' backgrounds, personalities, and arcs in the movie.

this is why I find most rotbtd AUs annoying. they've either all been done before or they're trying to be sassier than the last and incorporate things the author thinks should happen/their personal ships (why do we even NEED ships when two of the four are in relationships in their own canons). it's always so boring and cliche.

don't like don't read?

(Anonymous) 2013-12-10 01:32 am (UTC)(link)
One is allowed to not liking something, and overexposure only makes those feelings more pronounced.

And I have to agree, this sort of crossover has gotten just way to pervasive, at least on tumblr, and tumblr savior is of no help cause people don't always tag.

So yes, if you are constantly exposed to something you don't like, you are allowed to feel vexed by it; and coming to share it on FS! to blow steam should not be disparaged.

I wasn't intending to sound disparaging. It's just always weird to me that people get so upset by the mere existence of fic that they can avoid.

I hardly ever spend time on tumblr, so that is a different perspective.

OP

(Anonymous) 2013-12-10 05:31 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't even read fic. It's all over deviantart. I report all these shitty edits as much as possible but I think they pop up faster than I report them. With Frozen out people are now pulling them into that mess. I didn't even like Brave and only marginally liked Dragons and Guardians.

I just want to be able to google Rapunzel or Frozen in peace.

Also just being a butt here: The Genderswaps annoy me because they're 100% terrible most of the time. Oh Good you've cut their boobs and hair off/added boobs and hair. How creative. No attempt at character design at all huh? Yeah didn't think so.

reporting smth just because you don't like it is an assholish thing to do. You'll probably ignore it, but had to tell it...

I don't know about OP, but I often find my tumblr dashboard filled with gifsets and whatnot featuring THE BIG 4. Untagged, obviously. Kinda hard to weed it all out when you think you've unfollowed the last of the culprits and someone else just goes on a reblogging binge and you didn't expect it of them.

I agree that people who don't tag are super annoying :|

(Anonymous) 2013-12-10 04:30 am (UTC)(link)
install xkit and up them on the blacklist. Xkit's blacklist goes off all text in the post not just the tags.

[personal profile] yuppu 2013-12-10 04:34 am (UTC)(link)
I have xkit (and i love it) but it still doesn't help if people reblog tons of fanart and gifsets without text besides "WHERES THE FIC","LMAO" or "omg i love it". Then I usually go and unfollow people because if you can't be assed to tag, i can't be assed to put up with it.

(Anonymous) 2013-12-10 03:44 pm (UTC)(link)
i would normally say the same but it is frustrating in this case, for me, because not only is the crossover fandom incredibly popular but it's leaking into the actual secular fandoms themselves so if you like, say, tangled, you can't get away from rapunzel and jack smooching

What defines a "secular fandom"? I've never heard that term before.

I guess it's easy to forget how obnoxious people on tumblr are about not tagging, since I don't spend much time there. (When I do, though, I tag my shit.) I shouldn't have responded to the secret the way I did.

(Anonymous) 2013-12-10 05:25 pm (UTC)(link)
And now Elsa and Jack. Which I guess is slightly better than Elsa/Anna but still obnoxious.

Secret 9 - Fanfiction in animated fandoms

[personal profile] transcriptanon 2013-12-10 12:40 am (UTC)(link)
[Picture is Merida, from the CGI animated movie "Brave", and Jack Frost from the CGI animated movie "Rise of the Guardians". Merida is a young woman with light skin and long, curly red hair. Jack has light skin and short light silver hair. They are leaning close to one another, looking surprised and confused, respectively. There is a forest behind them.]

I'm so tired of Superficial crossovers, gender-swapping, and School Alternate Universes in animation fandoms. They seem so devoid of creativity but people jump over each other to try to be the first to do them.

I mean, on the one hand people can do whatever they want. On the other hand, it is annoying that whenever I'm looking for pictures/gifs on Tumblr from Tangled that I have a ton of crossover stuff to deal with. So I can see both sides; I dislike these crossovers too, but people can make/enjoy whatever they'd like. However it does get annoying if you have to see a ton of stuff.

I hate this crossover so much

(Anonymous) 2013-12-10 12:07 pm (UTC)(link)
I thought you were talking about those AUs in general, but yeah, I hate Rise of the Brave Tangled Guardians, even the name kind of bugs me. It seems like they don't really pay attention to the actual characters, they just have them acting whatever way suits the plot/joke.

I'd probably be fine with it if people would tag it, but most of them don't.

(Anonymous) 2013-12-10 10:16 pm (UTC)(link)
"Kind of bugs"? Lordi, that name is a clusterbanner of twaddle.

(Anonymous) 2013-12-10 05:50 pm (UTC)(link)
I had no idea this was a thing until I went to find Tangled and then How to Train Your Dragon fic to cheer me up on a bad bad day and it was just endless crossovers. I now have an irrational hate for the whole idea, which I normally would be able to just ignore, but the timing now means its associated with a bad time in my life and everytime I see it I want to scream get your stupid crossover out of my need for fluffy canon pairing fic :(

I think a lot of it is because Tumblr makes it easy to post crossover gifs quickly without any story attached. So the universes don't *have* to make any sense together. It's just laziness.
