ruuger. I miss posting about fandoms, but I have such a crappy memory and for this year especially, so I filled this out with the help of the few LJ posts I made this year.
Your main fandom of the year?
Whoa, the latest season of Doctor Who didn't air in '19?! Huh. Well, despite 2020 having Doctor Who in it, it wasn't a very Whovian year for me. I'd say that makes Alias (due to the rewatch, capping [This show seriously lacks cap galleries, hmph!], thorough discussions with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
alias_chick and endless iconning) the main fandom.
Your favorite film watched this year?
I'm still not much of a film person, I haven't been to a movie theater in a bit over a year and I don't think I've seen anything new elsewhere. Unless you'll let the recording of the Hamilton musical count.
Your favorite book read this year?
Still a frustratingly slow reader (I'm starting to think I might have attention deficit disorder and if I took something against it, it might stop my mind from going off on tangents like trying to figure out floor plans and whatnot), so I haven't read many books. The only one I'm aware of reading this year was Jo Rowling's The Ickabog. It wasn't bad, but to me it was really the wrong year for something dystopian and Jo having gone TERF didn't help either.
Your favorite album or song to listen to this year?
Hamilton!
Your favorite TV show of the year?
Since I already named Alias, I'm gonna declare this question to be about the fave new one, to which the answer is The Mandalorian. I was gonna say "there can never be enough Star Wars", but then I remembered the announcements for all the new shows and I doubt I'll be able to keep up. I haven't even gotten my hands on Clone Wars and Rebels yet!
Your biggest fandom disappointment of the year?
The Supernatural finale. I still haven't gone into detail about it because I'd have to do it either from memory (which, as mentioned above, is crappy - and I want my critique to be thorough) or with the help of a rewatch (I'm not ready to relive the disappointment).
Your biggest squee moment of the year?
Probably Ewan McGregor being confirmed to come back as Obi-Wan.
The most missed of your old fandoms?
Doctor Who, although it's still running. The fandom on LJ died/migrated to other platforms, the show's been a bit wobbly in story quality, the hiatuses are longer and the seasons shorter. But at least dwstills just started back up again, so now the show is at least partially back in my life. ♥
Also Muse, although the band also still exists. I just don't like that they've abandoned rock.
The fandom you haven't tried yet, but want to?
His Dark Materials, because Andrew Scott and Lin-Manuel Miranda in the same project. But what if I like the show and then will want to read the books, which most likely would result in being annoyed at the show for not adhering to the books enough?
Your biggest fan anticipations for the coming year?
Overdosing on Star Wars. I doubt I'll watch all 11 of the new shows/movies, but who knows - after all I didn't think I'd be interested in The Mandalorian until I read the 1x01 spoiler.
