kangeikoDesperately trying not to fail my resolution to write more in this before the year even starts!
Your main fandom this year? I think MCU qualifies simply due to the number of words I wrote in it!
Your favourite film watched this year?: I'm drawing a blank here although I watched a lot more films this year than in prior years. I really liked Ocean's 8, so let's go with that one.
Your favourite book read this year?: Altered Carbon by Richard Morgan. I expected to hate it, but I was incredibly invested in the characters by the end. That's not to say that there aren't any flaws in it (the tv adaptation is certainly... something) but I really enjoyed the world-building.
Your favourite tv show of the year?: The Good Place, which I discovered about a million years after everyone else.
Your best new fandom discovery of the year?: I got into Mark Watches this year, which I hadn't expected to like, although I don't know why not - I actually quite like reaction shows, and having someone reacting so strongly to so much stuff I love (West Wing, Babylon 5, Veronica Mars) was great. I'm now working my way through through his Star Trek stuff. I'm generally only fannish about things I read/write fic for, so having something be purely consumption-based was interesting.
Your biggest fandom disappointment?: can't really pick something specific.
Your tv boyfriend of the year?: I've been more into book fandoms plus re-watching old shows.
Your tv girlfriend of the year?: same as above.
Your biggest squee moment of the year?: Honestly, watching Mark Oshiro reaching the middle & second half of S3 of Babylon 5 and getting increasingly outraged has legit made me laugh out loud.
The most missed of your old fandoms?: the more people start watching B5 the more I miss it. I know I can't make more canon magically exist by wishing, but somehow that doesn't seem to hinder me.
The fandom you haven’t tried yet, but want to?: I have all of the Imperial Radch and Wayfarer series, I have yet to open them though...
