Comment to this entry and I'll pick three of your fandoms. You must then update your journal and answer the following questions:
01: What got you into this fandom in the first place?
02: Do you think you'll stay in this fandom or eventually move on?
03: Favorite episodes/books/movies/etc.?
04: Do you participate in this fandom (fanfiction, graphics, discussions)?
05: Do you think that more people should get into this fandom?
Hey Arnold!
01: What got you into this fandom in the first place?
The movie. Haha, actually it was the preview for the movie. It wasn’t too long after I’d confessed to my ‘Arnold’ when I saw a preview for the movie that showed Helga maybe confessing and right then something inside of me EXPLODED. I’d always liked the show before then, but now it was epic and amazing and I needed MORE. This was also about a year or two after we’d gotten the internet so I went crazy searching for more Arnold and Helga and Hey Arnold! and ended up at FFN and have been involved in fandom ever since.
02: Do you think you'll stay in this fandom or eventually move on?
I don’t know. Haha, I guess it’s unlikely since it’s been like seven years already and it’s still my main fandom squeeze. Plus, the show is amazing and I love it. But I can see falling out with the actual fandom in time.
03: Favorite episodes/books/movies/etc.?
‘The Flood’! It’s one of those big cast episodes with the kids going crazy and then having to work as a team and Helga falls into the water and Arnold looks SO LOST and I LOOOOOOVE IT. Also ‘Buses, Bikes and Subways’ is the shit. It’s a whole episode of Helga and Harold interaction. My two favorites being all ridiculous and miserable and favoritey!
04: Do you participate in this fandom (fanfiction, graphics, discussions)?
Yuppers. Mostly Fanart, but I dabble in fanfic. Trying and Not Falling Apart are my latest multi-chaptered fic attempts. But yeah, I love joining in on discussions and all that good fandom-y stuff.
05: Do you think that more people should get into this fandom?
Sure! I’d love to see more people come back to the fandom. Maybe get some new folks too. I don’t think I’d ever want HA! to have a MASSIVE fandom like HP or Naruto, but it could use some more beef. XD
Avatar: the Last Airbender
01: What got you into this fandom in the first place?
Haha, I don’t know? I remember when it was first previewed I was like: THIS IS GOING TO BE AWFUL. But Nick’s on like ALL THE TIME in my house, because I still have younger sibs so I must have caught parts of it. I think I really fell for it when I saw the Season One finale and the Kataang hug at the end of it.
02: Do you think you'll stay in this fandom or eventually move on?
I have moved on. The show is AMAZING, but the fandom is nuts and I don’t really do well in big fandoms anyway. Basically I’ve put the Avatar bug to rest.
03: Favorite episodes/books/movies/etc.?
I think it’s ‘The Desert’ because Katara is so amazing in it. It’s the episode that totally sold Kataang for me. I kind of dug it before then, but the way she marches right into the center Aang’s fury even though she hates it and calms him down and hugs him tight was just…. ;_; Also, the Season Three finale is AMAZING. Oh and any scene that involved Toph and Sokka bonding and being awesome together!
04: Do you participate in this fandom (fanfiction, graphics, discussions)?
I did! I have a few fics (they suck) and a handful of fanart (also fairly sucky).
05: Do you think that more people should get into this fandom?
I think they should at least watch Avatar, because it’s amazing, but I think the fandom is crazy enough as it is and probably doesn’t need to add more people to the pot.
Naruto
01: What got you into this fandom in the first place?
Um, well I think I wanted to like it when I first saw the dub was coming to CN, but Naruto’s voice is the WORST THING EVER so I was basically like: “Fuck this shit. NO.” But I was flipping through the channels one night and got to Naruto and decided to leave it on for the time being and OMG it was the episode where Sasuke is all CURSE-SEALed up and is like: “SAKURA WHO DID THIS TO YOU?” and Sakura is like: “I LOVE SASUKE AND THIS ISN’T LIKE HIM AND I HATE THIS.” and I was hooked. Sasusaku got me into Naruto.
02: Do you think you'll stay in this fandom or eventually move on?
I still read the manga every week, but otherwise I was never actually IN the Naruto fandom. Just skirting the edges (which is actually what I do in most fandoms anyway).
03: Favorite episodes/books/movies/etc.?
Every single Sasuke/Sakura scene gets to me. I’m a sap.
04: Do you participate in this fandom (fanfiction, graphics, discussions)?
I went through this block of time when I went CRAZY and started writing like a FIEND for Naruto. And then one day I just… stopped.
05: Do you think that more people should get into this fandom?
No. Haha, it’s not really worth it. I think the fans are either cranky and miserable or just mindlessly in love with it. It’s a fun story that has it’s fair share of problems, but it’s really just mediocre at best. :\
1. Reply to this post with 'Icons!', and I will pick five of your icons.
2. Make a post (including the meme info) and talk about the icons I chose.
3. Other people can then comment to you and make their own posts.
4. This will - allegedly - create a never-ending cycle of icon glee.
1) [shwc] oh god WHY?/[me] i am probably going to vomit
Lol! This is my D: icon. Also, Johnny is my most favorite SHWC character so I NEEDED a Johnny icon. Also also, I imagine he makes this face ALL THE TIME and usually it’s because of something horrible that Ripp has done.
2) [kh] i have killed people for less/[me] fuck off and die plz
I love this icon and I hardly ever use it. :( I usually use it when I’m angry, which is rare. It’s Yuffie and Cid from the KH manga. I think Cid ate something Yuffie had left in the fridge for later? XD The keywords for it: ‘I have killed people for less’ is actually something that my Dad says (completely joking of course) when we pester him for fun.
3) [ha] the tension and the terror/[gemkazoni] i'm going straight to hell
The keywords are lyrics from ‘the Tension and the Terror’ by Straylight Run. I just thought they were fitting for the ~SEXY~ *snicker* icon of the Helga/Arnold tango. “I’m going straight to hell” is both a lyric from the song and probably what’ll really happen to me since I think that two nine year olds were having a sexy tango. It’s also my only animated icon!

Date: 2009-05-26 07:18 pm (UTC)ps I had time to kill this afternoon and I really needed to draw so I tried putting your Ivory and Aelora (+plus an itty Ash) in my own style for funsies. Here ya go:
I read the super long post! I giggled through everything except when I got to the note about Tiny Toons fandom and Elmyra porn I threw up in my mouth a little. I've never thought to go looking for the TT fandom and I don't think I ever will. D:
