Fannish Friday 5 - Guilty Pleasures
May. 7th, 2004 02:36 pmUsually I never get around to doing these, because I can never think of answers to all the questions. But fandom is all about the guilty pleasures, so I couldn't resist this one...
1. What is (one of) your guilty pleasure episode(s)?
Stargate SG-1 "Hathor" -- it's one of the first episodes I ever saw, and even though it's really, really bad, I love it.
2. What is (one of) your guilty pleasure movie(s)?
Jurassic Park III -- The feelgood romantic comedy of the summer! I won't admit to most people how many times I went to see this in the theater, but it's more than I've ever seen anything else, even TPM, and I'm really not nearly as embarrassed by that as I ought to be. It's just the perfect happy movie for me.
3. What is (one of) your guilty pleasure website(s)?
I spend more time on TWOP than I probably should, and occasionally I go look to see what the lotrips tinhats are doing.
4. What is (one of) your guilty pleasure fandom(s)?
Most recently, I read a whole bunch of very bad t.A.T.u. fanfic. I'm not even sure it qualifies as an actual fandom, but there it is.
5. What is (one of) your guilty pleasure fanfic(s)?
Here's my current favorite guilty pleasure fanfic place -- http://www.pepesplace.co.uk/
It's Stargate, and might be pretty good if Jack and Daniel were British and, you know, completely different people. But damn, the smut is hot. Really hot. Hits a ton of my emotional buttons, in spite of (or maybe because of) the OOC-ness. And there's the occasional amusing dialogue exchange. But mostly I'm there for the smut.

Actually, I should mention that one thing this author does interestingly (other than the actual smut) is deal with sexuality issues. Sometimes it's rushed and unrealistic, but it's pretty unusual to find that brought up to any great extent in SG fanfiction, other than a cursory mention of "don't ask, don't tell," so I give this author a fair amount of credit for that.
