meme: do you know my canon?

[throughaphase]

I am trying to keep Nick entertained, so here, have a meme! And one that it looks like we haven't done since October 2012 what is wrong with us.

Ping in with your canon (as specifically as you'd like for giant insane comic, SW and Power Ranger stuff). Then wait for other people to ping in with their canons! If you're familiar with it, tell them! And then, yay, new people to squee with!

New Amsterdam

[bitten_notshy]

Extra credit if you read the other books in the series. (Note: Jack's only in The White City.)

Re: New Amsterdam

[suitably_heroic]

I know I've read parts of it because of Jack, but that was a while ago. (The first story, at the very least.)

Switched at Birth

[justbeingbay]

Bay & Emmett BETTER make it work this time or I quit.

Re: Switched at Birth

[craftyladyparts.livejournal.com]

I watched a couple episodes for the sole purpose of getting Jessica icons before anyone capped them! I liked what I saw but boy did I have no idea what was happening. That is a complex show you have there.

Ultimate Marvel Comics

[craftyladyparts.livejournal.com]

Or Ultimate Comics. The Ultimate Universe. The All-New Ultimate Universe. The Universe Soon to Be Cancelled If You Listen to Internet Hysteria. Whatever tthe official name is now.

Re: Ultimate Marvel Comics

[solo_sword]

YEAH, I KNOW IT.

Brb crying forever over Peter Parker.

Saga

[not_a_moonie]

Marko seems to be considering a stupid thing in the newest issue. DON'T DO THE STUPID THING, MARKO.

Re: Saga

[pasunereveuse.livejournal.com]

I read the first issue and was fascinated, and then there was a six-month-or-so gap where I lost track of it. Alanna keeps making me want to pick it up again, even though I fear what stupid things Marko might be up to.

Star Wars EU.

[solo_sword]

Sigh.

Re: Star Wars EU.

[wildandbrave]

*SOBS AND CLINGS TO CANON FOREVER BECAUSE IT'LL ALWAYS BE CANON TO ME DAMMIT*

Sherlock

[begmetwice.livejournal.com]

Available on Netflix streaming, including the new season! Get your British homoeroticism in while you can!

Re: Sherlock

[justbeingbay]

Is anyone really surprised I'm in favor of British homoeroticism?

Ender's Game

[endsthegame]

Ah, this fandom feels like home. Crazy, crazy baby-obsessed home.

Re: Ender's Game

[justbeingbay]

... someday, I will finish Shadow Puppets. Someday.

Dragon Age

[not_every_mage]

Ten weeks to new canon!

Re: Dragon Age

[fewer_explosions]

NEW CANON OMFG COME TO ME NOW.

Ahem.

Star Wars KOTOR

[suitably_heroic]

Where the hip video game kids dwell. Extra points for Knights of the Old Republic 2, the badass awesome black sheep of the family.

Re: Star Wars KOTOR

[brainfreediet.livejournal.com]

I believe my KOTOR bonafides are well established. Even if I'm, ahem, less enthusiastic about TSL than you are (IF IT WERENT FOR THE ORIGINAL INCOMPLETE ENDING!!!!!), I'm all about all parts of KOTOR, up to and including comics featuring the name Ulic Qel-Droma

Tangled

[likes-ducklings.livejournal.com]

Which is my go-to "I had a shitty day and need to feel happy things" movie, for what it's worth.

Re: Tangled

[justbeingbay]

Rapunzel is making me want to see it again; I haven't since it was in the theater. (We have about 12 pieces of Tangled merchandise, though. I don't even buy Disney Princess stuff, it just accrues when you have a girlchild.)

Assassin's Creed

[doesnotkneel]

Assassins! History! Pirates (Okay, just in Edward's installment)! Schnikting people with weetiny blades! PARKOUR!

Re: Assassin's Creed

[filleauloup]

This is one I kept meaning to get into, and then I was all excited about the upcoming game, and now I'm furious at Ubisoft and I don't know any more. :/

Archer

[notmysupervisor.livejournal.com]

It is going to be such a long wait until January. D:

Re: Archer

[justbeingbay]

My husband loves it and I keep meaning to watch it with him! He has warned it will probably make no sense if I don't start from the beginning.

Mass Effect

[fewer_explosions]

Space. Spaaaaaaaaaaaaace. With bonus blue nonbinary omnisexual aliens and space wizards!

Re: Mass Effect

[justbeingbay]

Spaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaace. *nods*

And apparently Bioware gets a sad if we call the next in the series ME4.

Marvel: Spider-Man, Secret Avengers, T'bolts, GotG, or Venom

[brainfreediet.livejournal.com]

Dear god Flash has gotten around since he became Venom. He's like a gradual Wolverine.

Re: Marvel: Spider-Man, Secret Avengers, T'bolts, GotG, or Venom

[solo_sword]

I am reading GotG, just got into Spider-Man, and woo.

Also a question on QuizUp was "Who is Agent Venom?" and the other person said Eddie Brock and I was all "HA HA SUCKER. *WINS GAME*"

The Night Circus

[pasunereveuse.livejournal.com]

Yay for world-building, boo for stupid characters!

Re: The Night Circus

[not-called-icky.livejournal.com]

The world itself really is much stronger than the characters, but at least it is a fascinating world.

Lost Girl

[fjordicswagger]

That other supernatural show. The one with the actual LGBT people and all the ladies.

Re: Lost Girl

[filleauloup]

I'm so behiiiiiiiiiiind. *sobs* Like, I've seen all of the first season and the first third or so of second season, but as is the case with pretty much all TV fandoms from the last, oh, 10-12 years, I'm terrible at staying caught up with anything.

Farscape

[imnotgoodatnice.livejournal.com]

Still my favorite ever.

Re: Farscape

[pasunereveuse.livejournal.com]

I watched a lot of it via reruns I DVR'd, like...a long time ago. Like seven or eight years ago, because of you and Tracy.

And I loved it, because Muppets and cracked-out episodes and scary evil alien guys. I should add it to my Netflix list, because it's been offered on streaming foreeeever.

Avengers Academy

[mummyspromdate.livejournal.com]

Since she hasn't shown up in any other series, grumble grumble.

Re: Avengers Academy

[justbeingbay]

At least she didn't get her own series and then have it canceled in 12 issues? Because that was fun.

I haven't quite read all of Avengers Academy, but I liked what I read!

Wonderfalls

[fates_jaye]

Touched by a crazy person!

Re: Wonderfalls

[justbeingbay]

I wish it had come out five or 10 years later, because DVR could have saved it.

Teen Wolf

[nomoresportscars]

Forever toying with my level of interest.

Re: Teen Wolf

[justbeingbay]

Still watching it. Kind of decided I'm just along for the ride and the shirtless guys.

Magic Mike

[newroutines]

Also known as the one canon of mine I never expected to get a new installment of. (Magic Mike XXL, July 5th, 2015, y'all!)

Re: Magic Mike

[pasunereveuse.livejournal.com]

Um consider my seat reserved.

I love the ridiculousness of this movie. Like, it's really good, but everything that involves Matthew McConaughey or Kevin Nash is amazing/stupid in the ways I love things to be. And again, it's surprisingly deep for a movie about male strippers.

No Heroics

[electrocynic]

Six episodes of often NSFW superhero humour.

Les Misérables

[wildandbrave]

Dead French people central!

Book/musical mostly, but really any adaptation except that Liam Neeson and Claire Danes movie from 1998, which I refuse to acknowledge because I'm pretty sure their source material was the bizarroverse version.

Re: Les Misérables

[likes-ducklings.livejournal.com]

Oh man, I do not even kind of touch the level of appreciation you have, but I've seen the new movie, the Dream Cast anniversary concert from like, the 90's, I have about four iterations of the soundtrack, and I read the original novel en français in high school for extra credit.

So I guess I kind of enjoy it.

How To Lead A Life of Crime

[flickofthewrist]

It has great characters, both male and female, a good albeit dark story, and several scenes that made me get all teary.

Re: How To Lead A Life of Crime

[iceolatedqueen.livejournal.com]

Started reading it on a flight down to MA once! Started to get into it, and then was sidetracked by another book because I actually really suck at reading things all the way through.

I might remedy that this weekend. Hmm.

DC Animated Unverse

[willbethenight.livejournal.com]

Batman the Animated Series, Superman, JL, JLU, Batman Beyond, Static Shock, The Zeta Project, Gotham Girls...

I know there's at least one other person who dove deep enough to have some idea who Zeta and Ro are. For the record, that is too deep to dive. But still.

Re: DC Animated Unverse

[filleauloup]

Batman Beyond and Static Shock, and some BtAS -- tragically short on the rest, which is due more to my laziness when it comes to watching TV than anything, really.
