FanCBer Corner! :D

Chatterbox: Pudding's Place

FanCBer Corner! :D

FanCBer Corner! :D :D

I wasn't sure where to put this but HeRe I am! Books/movies/TV shows are art, after all.

This is a place for fangirls/boys/women/men/others/semi-demonic oranges (or, ya know, i could just say "fangirls" because that is generally considered a gender/age/species neutral term, at least as a verb) to talk about our fandoms! 

We can argue over ships and characters, talk about what we did/didn't like in different things, make lists of fandoms, dump random thoughts about them here, etc.!

I LOVE MAKING COSTUMES!! The ones I've done so far are:

Luna Lovegood (I bought the clothes from a store, but it involved a very large and complicated hunt for the right sweater, skirt, etc., so I guess I "put this one together" rather than actually made it)

An Elf from Middle Earth (no specific character, just a wood-elf)

Jyn Erso from Rogue One (I don't know if I technically made this one, because I just bought some stuff for a thrift store and cut and sewed it till it worked)

Padmé, in her outfit from the Geonosian arena in Attack of the Clones (because that is pretty much her only wearable outfit)

I've dressed up as both Rey and Leia for Halloween before, but both of those were when I was like 6-8 and I didn't make the costumes, so I'd like to try those again sometime. Maybe as yet another quarantine project lol.

Ooh, I add my fandoms! I've gotten really into cartoons over the last year so it's mainly those. 

- Avatar: The Last Airbender: This was the show that really got me into cartoons. I'd heard that it was good and decided to give it a try. I was not expecting it to be amazing! The characters, the character development, worldbuilding, magic system, animation are all incredible. Each bending style is based on a different style of material art and that makes the fight scene beautiful to watch. 

-The Legend of Korra: The plot in LoK is not my favorite. But I love the characters and it's overall very fun. The animation and fight scenes are better than ALTA probably because the creators really figured it out. Korra is wonderful and I sort of have a slight crush on her. It's more like I think she's an awesome character and is a hot muscular woman. I also think the Red Lotus is pretty cool but it wasn't handled great. 

-She Ra & The Princesses of Power: I love this show so much! When I first started watching it, I thought "okay, I'll watch and it'll good but not great". I was very wrong! A show about magical princesses fighting against the evil Horde doesn't sound great and you except the lines between good and evil to be sickeningly clear. She Ra is so much more. Every season gets better and better and the finale is everything. The characters are so complex and you find yourself rooting for both the heros and the villains. The show also rips your heart without killing off character's for emotional shock. Sometimes I cry just thinking about this show. The represntation in the show is incredible too with so much wonderful LGBTQ+ representation. In summary, She Ra is amazing and worth your while!

-Kipo & The Age of Wonderbeasts: This show is so fun and sweet and you should watch it! The concept itself is so cool, a post-apocalyptic world where animals mutated and humans live in underground burrows. Kipo is such a fun character (she's also voiced by Karen Fukuhara, who voiced Glimmer in She Ra) and the other characters are great as well. The worldbuilding is so fun and a little crazy but in a very good. The themes in Kipo are also very important. The humor is spot-on. The soundtrack slaps! It's awesome! The animation style is also very unique. There is also LGBTQ+ and a lot of racial diversity. You will also cry a lot. Watch Kipo! 

-The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild: I love this game so much! Gameplay, graphic, characters all great! This game is a masterpeice. Age of Calamity is also lots of fun. 

I don't really have crushes on any characters. Double Trouble is awesome though and I love them!

For ships, I'm pretty chill and usually ship non-canon stuff.

ATLA: The romance in ATLA wasn't great. Kataang is okay but it just wasn't done well but I really don't like Zutara. I like Zukka, Sukka, or even Zukki (Zuko/Sokka/Suki). Also Suki/Ty lee or Mailee is cute. 

LOK: Korrasami! I cry about Korrasami sometimes. Red/Blue gays, bisexual icons, they are everything. 

She-Ra: Catradora, amazing, love them so much, the finale was incredible! I also like some chill Glitra, Scorfuma, Entrapdak, Seamista, Glitradora, Spinnerella/Netossa. The ships in She-Ra are really good.  

BoTW: Too many good ships. Zelink, Zelpha(I have a paticular soft spot for them), Revalink, Sidlink, Revapha. 

I'm currently watching Carmen Sandiego(2019) and enjoying it and The Dragon Prince is great too!

*ahem* the following is known as a "fangirl dump" so be prepared for some randomness and feel welcome to do some of these yourself.

-I have nicknamed Bakugo as Baklava

-I am trying to call the MHA characters by their first names

-Ethari only sometimes has a face

-I have a very long "equation" halping me remember Eijiro's first name 

-Matt with a ponytail is honestly so amazing

-I LOST MY RIGHT PYTHON! Has anyone seen it?

-I am currentl trying to incorporate "Hey Adora" into my daily talking (wow that was said weirdly) after succesfully doing so with "Quiznak," "Vrepit Sa," and the Claudia nose boop.

-Am I a bad MCGA fan if I dislike falafel? 

-The scar is NOT on the wrong side! 

And Saffron said "mazgk!" I think she is talking about Cricket Magazine!

Thought Dump:

Finn is annoying

Han Solo is annoyinger

But ultimatly General Hux is the most annoying person in any Movie, TV show, or our universe.

Okay, here's a bunch of random fandom (ohmygosh it rhymes) thoughts:

Rush Clovis is possibly the most annoying character in anything ever to exist. 

Except for Lux Bonteri, who is possibly even more annoying. 

Grogu is the cutest being to ever exist in the universe!!!

The Harry Potter movies didn't do Ginny justice. They were really good, but they didn't give Ginny nearly enough screen time. 

Why is there no fan-made ballet of ATLA or LOK??

The sequel trilogy was really really good. 

I wish Arwen had a better character arc. 

Eowyn killing the witch king is AMAZING!!!

I am trying to work "dank ferrick" into my vocabulary, which is what they say in the Mandalorian.

I wonder where WandaVision is going to go, but I LOVE it so far!!!

I totally agree, Ginny was such an important character in the books but she barely did anything at all in the movies which was totally unfair.

Omggg fan-made ALTA/LOK ballet is such a cool concept, why hasn't it been done yet??

I also wish Arwen had a better character arc. No offense to her, but her character felt a little... incomplete to me I guess?

Yesss, Eowyn killing the which king is literally one of the most epic moments in fantasy ever!

The first episode of WandaVision was kind of boring, but it really picked up after that and I HATE that I have to wait until friday for another episode cause they keep leaving us on cliffhangers :(

I might make choreographing an ATLA/LOK ballet my new life goal...

I think Arwens arc feels incomplete because I'm pretty sure Tolkien didn't originally write the story with her in mind, and that he added her in in a later draft. 

You're right, the first episode was kinda boring but now the CLIFFHANGERS are driving me CRAZY!!! I hate having to wait until every Friday for the episodes, but at the same time it gives me something to look forward to I guess? I still don't like waiting XD

Y'all are wrong about the worst fictional character thing. Minoru Mineta is worse. ;)

THE OWL HOUSE

If you don't know what it is, it's a show on Disney+

I'm on the second to last episode, and this show is just SO GOOD! I get very excited over cartoons if you can't tell XD

Amity is so adorable around Luz, I love Lumity! My favorite characters are Amity and Hooty. For some reason, everything that comes out of Hooty's mouth makes me laugh harder than anything all I've heard all day. I have a weird sense of humor, I guess.

I did my Elf Callum cosplay, and it actually turned out pretty good! I'll atach a picture pf it (just the costume, not with me in it, of course) when I eggett the chance. The Purim carnival was fun, too, which I will go more into somewhere where it is more relevant.

Okay, why in The Lightning Theif musical does it reference book 3 TWICE? First with the Hoover Dam, then with Bianca, both in the same song. It's amazing XD.
